Dave and Treyson were always hyperactive playing video games or whatever. Anytime they got along was a blessing for me. Dave and I made friends with a few neighbors and it really started feeling like we belonged there. That was until Dave caused the biggest and stupidest scene ever.  Our neighbors from two doors down…

Dave was Italian/Mexican and his temper did not disappoint. I saw the temper he had and I ignored it. Prior to us moving, we went to meet my dad at the local bar in my small town. We ended up finding a table and it was packed with a band. We were having a good…

My life in Texas was going to be great, better than great! I had so much hope and love for our little family, Dave, me, Treyson, Loki, Louie (dobermans). You could say we did have some great years, it’s the ending that sticks with us. It’s never the positives we remember, always the bad. The…

Anyways, while my grandparents are down in Mexico trying to save my grandmother. My parents, Uncle MJ, and Aunt Courtney all made plans to go down to Mexico to visit their mom during treatment. Something had come up and apparently my mother made the decision to wait for the next coming weekend to visit. The…

At a young age of 19, I have been questioning everything about myself. Who could be my biological father? What was he like? You are sitting there like, “bitch you took the DNA test with Rod and told us it was negative”. Well, turns out the results were negative, but Rod wasn’t the only potential…

Jealousy can be nasty emotion and will turn people into a something completely different. Did you know this is actually…

I remember Amber calling me telling me shes pregnant and how excited her and Nick were to have another baby on the way. I was so excited and sad that I wasn’t going to be there like I was before. What none of us expected, Amber got diagnosed with breast cancer and the doctors advised…

Betsy had tried to warn her mom not to get involved but kept my promise not to tell. We all sat around talked about it all for hours, even days. That was the top subject in our family being ripped apart. Everyone was picking sides and my mother was working on hers. She went to…

The house that I grew up in, the only house I’d known forever was exposed with only 4 poles holding it together. I felt that way myself, tread lightly I don’t have much holding me up. Dad was focused, never seen him so focused before. He didn’t want to talk, just work. He ripped through…

I wasn’t there when my mother talked herself out of this mess she created, she probably planned it that way. She had moved out of the house with just her clothes and went to get her new boyfriend, that’s also still married, and moved him to our small town. I don’t have all the details…
