If you've done Idol before you probably know me fairly well by now. If not, I apologize in advance.
So, let's see what I can think of to tell you about myself.
I live with my ex husband. Yes, it's as weird as it sounds and it's very long and complicated.
I have Borderline Personality Disorder, Bi-Polar 2, PTSD, and severe anxiety. I am also borderline agoraphobic. I'd be pretty content to just never leave the house. Needless to say, that means I don't really have much of a social life offline.
I have two grown kids. I am extremely close to my daughter but my son stopped speaking to me 7 years ago and I have no idea why. That really hurts and I miss him like crazy. Maybe someday he'll change his mind. I hope.
I have four dogs (and the ex has one). Three of mine are white Boxers and I have a Frenchton puppy. The ex's dog is a mix of English Bulldog, French Bulldog, and Pug. And she drives me nuts.
I filed for disability five years ago and I am still fighting to get it even though I am disabled in four different ways under Missouri Disability Laws. My case is currently at the Federal Court level and we're hoping to hear something this month. I am praying that they finally grant it so that I can get into therapy and I'll have some sort of stability of my own instead of depending on someone else for everything.
I also collect (and am learning to make reborn dolls. These are dolls that look extremely real. So real that I take them out in public with me and no one knows it's not a real baby. The ex is totally creeped out by them and I am not allowed to have them out when he is home.
My Idol entries are always written on what pops into my head when I read the prompt. I don't do much fiction so most of my posts are personal.
I am looking forward to another season of Idol and getting to know all of you!
