So it's obviously been awhile.
I just didn't really know what else to say anymore.
I felt like nobody really read any posts...like I was talking to myself.
Maybe I am.
Maybe that's what I need.
I created this blog in hopes of trying to reach out and talk about important topics such as Asperger's Syndrome, Phenylketonuria, COPD, Congenital Heart disease and anything else I mentioned...but failed to do so.
All of those topics are still very much important and dear to me, but the reality is that I don't really know much about those topics from a first hand point of view.
A lot of what I talked about was information on what I have found online, which any one of you could do yourselves if you really wanted to know about them.
Sure, my sister has Asperger's Syndrome and my brother has Phenylketonuria...but that's them. I don't really know about their lives anymore.

Yes, I see them just about everyday. But I don't live with them anymore. I don't talk about their conditions, either. I don't know what it's like to actually live their lives.

So, I've decided to not make my blog about these very important topics, but to talk about me, my life, my son, and all those dear to me...even those that aren't.

I always thought my life was kind of boring, but really, it kind of isn't.
I could tell stories up and down about my friends, families, memories of the past, and the type of crazy stuff that happens at each of my jobs. Okay, well two of my jobs.

So like my blog is called, "Life Like Mine,"...you are really going to see what it's like to live like me.

A single mom to a wonderfully silly and smart almost five year-old boy, who works three very different jobs, trying to balance work life with personal life and raising a kid in these crazy times of the world.

For the first time in my life, I really want to embrace who I really am. I want to embrace my flaws, but also work on bettering myself for the good of my son and I.

So hold on, because sometimes my life can get pretty crazy.

But with the love and support from God, my family, and my friends...I got this.
