What Hurts the Most

What makes people act the way they do? Why would someone’s future husband talk to another girl about cheating? Is it out of fear? Insecurity? Boredom? If someone could answer this for me, it would solve a lot.

I’m not saying that I’m perfect. I’m far from it. I’ve made my mistakes and was forgiven after a lot of apologizing and working on gaining the trust back. And I learned from my mistakes. I was lucky enough to be forgiven, why would I want to screw that up again? Maybe I’m just better at learning than other people are. But you’d think after the second, third, and now fourth time, that they would think, “Hey, I’ve done this before and I always get caught and then there’s a chance my fiancée will leave me for good and not forgive me this time. But I’ll do it again anyway!”

Maybe it’s the thrill of knowing he could be caught? I honestly don’t know. But it breaks my heart. It’s probably the worst hurt anyone could bare. When you love someone so much that you can’t live without them and they let you down because they want to tell girls that they may be thinking about cheating… On their fiancée who just had a baby 3-weeks ago.

Y’all are probably saying, “Well he told her he was thinking about it. At least he didn’t do it.” Yeah, okay. The word “cheating” shouldn’t even be coming out of his mouth unless it during a game of poker.

I don’t know how many girls he has talked to about this except the ones I’ve actually “caught”. My count is at four already. I know there’s more, but he won’t admit to it.

I’m probably crazy for posting this, but I needed to get everything off my chest, out of my brain, and out in the open. I need to be able to sleep at night and not starve myself because I’m so hurt. I thought if this happened again, I’d be able to handle it. Yes, I’m handling it a hell of a lot better than any other time. There shouldn’t have been “any other time”. There shouldn’t have been a “this time”.

I’m stupid for staying and I’m scatterbrained. I don’t know what to do.





From the Heart

Lately I’ve been posting how I’m super busy with life. I’ve got my two children, a full time job, college, plus I’m planning a wedding… that gets kind of crazy, don’t you think? I agree. Well, read some updates!

Food Lion… That’s my job. It’s a love/hate relationship. This place takes up most of my time and money! I work there and shop there, so they get all the money they pay me BACK into their bank accounts and I might as well live in the store. :p

Children… Lyra is a sick kid. Well, not really. But she gets sick wicked easily. She’s allergic to every kind of pollen and tree and chocolate and dairy! Poor child. Dalton isn’t that bad. Actually, I believe he’s only been sick twice and it was just little colds that weren’t nothing! They’re both something else. Dalton already likes to aggravate Lyra and he’s only 9-months! Too cute!

Wedding… Most of you know that my desired career is to be a wedding and event planner. I’m starting out planning my own wedding and also going to school for event planning. I’m not getting married until next May, but I’m the type that likes to get things done early. NO PROCRASTINATION! Sup? ;)

Hopefully I’ll post more little updates like this… you know, about family, work, and life in general. I don’t think I’m going to post the Food Lion sales ads anymore since I post the next week’s that isn’t out yet… that might be illegal! LOL.

“Harmony” by Susie Suh

Recently my mother had to put our dog, Harmony, to sleep. She was going blind, she had diabetes and hip dysplasia. She was just so pitiful walking into things all the time. She was just very, very sick.

This song reminds me of her, not just because of the name, but the rhythm of the song. It kind of sounds sad. I cry every time I hear it, and I’m going to share the song with all of you.

Rest in Peace, Harmony. We love and miss you a lot.





Exhaustion!

I have been so exhausted since giving birth to my son, Dalton, on July 29th. He’s only 5-days old, so we haven’t gotten him on a schedule yet. It’s getting better though.

I had just realized that I haven’t updated much on The Queen Mom since his “birthday” so I figured I would write a little post to keep you all updated.

We’re fine. I’m healing pretty good this time around. My belly is wicked ugly! lol Dalton’s a perfect little baby. My doctor did his circumcision and that’s healing well. His umbilical cord is about to fall off already, but I think it’s because the hospital left the clamp on it after we were discharged.

There were 22 babies delivered the night Dalton was born! Speaking of… I’m probably going to write a post about the day of and after his birth. I did for Lyra’s birth, too, it’s just not posted here yet.

I’m trying to get as many posts as possible from the past 9-years of blogging on here. I doubt I can get very many.

Anyway! I’m off to feed my little one! Come back for that experience post and my list of loves/dislikes about pregnancy! :)





The Day Before Another Big Change

I am experiencing a whirlwind of emotions right now.

Tomorrow my son will be born. We are going into labor and delivery at 12:00pm to register and prepare for the c-section. My doctor says he will be born around 2:30pm-3:00pm, but that’s if there are not any emergency c-sections popping up in the meantime.

I feel happy to finally have my baby in my arms and to not be pregnant anymore. I’m also nervous to meet him. I’m dreading the crying in the middle of the night. I don’t know what it’s going to be like to have two children.

What if I’m not going to be good enough?

I’m a worry-wart. I always have been and I always will be. I want to be the perfect mom, even though there is no such thing.
