I hope I don't come off as pretentious but I thought instead of me starting a million and one threads that I would just start one and add to it whenever I feel the need. No sense in creating new threads for the same old Eleanor crap, huh?
For instance, here I am sitting on my big fat arse snarfing down a huge piece of Chocolate Cream Cake, chasing it with Diet Pepsi and choking down the handful of horse pills I have to take every day just to function on a minimal level each day. I have WATCHED for the umpteen hundredth time an exercise video by Shaun T called "Rockin' Body" that I would LOVE to start doing but I'm drowning in anxiety, fear and pity. I'm anxious because I want to do this, fearful that I'm going to look foolish and fail and feeling pitiful because I realize I am just so useless and worthless because I'm not getting up and just doing it. I'm slowly eating and mourning myself to death while inside I am screaming "GET UP YOU USELESS TWIT AND CHANGE YOUR LIFE ONE STEP AT A TIME!!!" "YOU STUPID, WORTHLESS BITCH!! ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY YOU GINORMOUS COW!!
WTF is wrong with me?!?!? used to be so hopeful and now I just sit here day after day as life flies past me. I no longer participate in anything that requires me to leave home. I have no desire to leave my house. Anything I want I can find online, I am my own best company, my pets give me all of the love and affection I could ever want. I am content to just sit here, eating, popping pills, loving my pets and talking to all of you. Sigh, I have become a pathetic shell of a person. I feel I have nothing to offer the world anymore. Just thinking about getting up and doing anything makes me want to lie down and sleep for hours and hours with my purrbabies curled up all around me while the tv lowly drones on in the background lulling me to sleep and infiltrating my dreams.
I do long to pull back the drapes and let the sun pour in but, it hurts my eyes and I see what I am missing. I want to go outside, smell the air and feel the sun on my skin but I just don't have the energy. I want to shake the dust off of everything, chuck out what I don't want or need any longer and simplify my surroundings but it takes too much effort. Besides, what's the point? HE doesn't appreciate a damn thing I do. Oh I know, I should do it for myself but it overwhelms me so and then halfway through I just give up and there it sits...half done and half undone...and the dust settles back into place while I take my place on the sofa and lie my head down while my babies curl up around me and the tv drones on lowly in the background lulling me to sleep and infiltrating my dreams...

((((ER)))))
When I feelz shitty like that? I force myself outside...go for a run, go to the gym. Hug the squad and DO. DO DO DO...every little bit does help...even a teeny little bit.
But yeah...I know the feeling all too well.
And...who cares what "he" appreciates. Existence is NOT about him. He is NOT the center of the damn Universe. Make yourself the center of your own Universe. The part about taking care of YOU, is super important. You KNOW that. Everything counts in large amounts!!!
Crank some tunes!!! Gets the blood moving.

Thanks honey and I do know that I need to and should focus on me more. I told you a day or so ago that I am in one of my moods. I H A T E when I feel like this but sadly it happens. I have made up my mind that I am going to do my exercise not only because it is going to be good for me physically and will help me lose weight that I desperately need to lose BUT because it will help fight this depression that looms over me constantly.
My H has always told me that he will divorce me if I ever lose weight and get skinny because he doesn't want anyone else looking at me and giving him competition. Isn't that the most retarded thing you have ever heard when he practically THREW me at other people for sex! God this PD crap is so mind boggling!! Now if I can just get my head to stop thinking so much about it all. At least when I start school I will have something to distract me!

Exercise does wonders for depression. I think so at any rate. I know the last month and a half? That's the only reason I seemed to move my ass. And I HAVE TO MOVE IT, or nothing gets done. So...
Your H is the most vulgar disgusting useless prick for a POS, I don't give a shit if he is a PD or not, that is just so fucked up. The PD SHIT is beyond disgusting and as far as I am concerned? He yours and mine, can rot in their shit pits together. Revolts me on every level.
School is a couple weeks away and then you will be OUT of the house around Normal humans. It will do wonders for your head space. Any chance you can get a hold of the text book list ahead of time? Do some prep work?

I have to pay off an old college bill just a cpl hundred dollars, get my transcripts from them which takes no time at all, get that over to the other college so they can put it in the system then get my Federal Aid updated.
Hopefully I can start classes shortly after they start so I don't miss too much but if not then I will definitely be getting all of my ducks in a row so I can get a jump on them for the next semester which starts in January.
I'm still not sure what I want to major in but I'm thinking of majoring in nursing and minoring in cyber forensics. I can take up to 18 credit hours per semester but what's great is a lot o the classes I have to take for nursing I also have to take for Cyber Forensics. I can make a boat load more money in nursing than I can in CF but I have a huge interest in CF. I would be hacking into computers and gathering evidence then testifying in court on all matters of online crimes from embezzlement to child molesters. I really want to do that.

I DID IT! I DID IT! I got up off my lazy ass and did 5 minutes of aerobic exercise. Okay, I know it doesn't sound like a whole hell of a lot to anyone but let me explain.
1. I have NEVER exercised on purpose in my life.
2. In 1992 when I was 23 I had to have back surgery for a ruptured disk in my low back and it was all I could do to work a full time nursing job without rumbling to the floor by the end of the day.
3. In 2007 I was a passenger in a car that got rear ended by a full size pick up truck. We were stopped at a red light and the truck never stopped until it hit us at 60 MPH. As a result I had 2 disks rupture in my neck that left me within millimeters of being paralyzed from the neck down. The old surgery in my low back was completely destroyed and I suffered a new rupture in the disk just above it. I had to have plates and screws put in to hold my neck in place and I had to have rods put in my low back to support my spine there. Needless to say my body has been through hell and I am quite out of shape unless being round counts LOL.
4. I am trying to get into some sort of decent shape and I am determined to lose 125 lbs. I currently stand 5'5" tall and 265 lbs. Now don't freak just yet, although I am very muscular and a lot of my weight is attributed to that I am still way too heavy by about a good 75 lbs at least. I want to try to get to my ideal body weight of somewhere between 135 lbs and 150 lbs BUT if I can lose 100 lbs I will be happy or even 75 lbs I will be happy.
So, when you factor in all of the obstacles I have already gotten over then the fact that I did 5 whole minutes of exercise is a bloody miracle! LMAO! Oh heaven help me my back and my legs are cramping so bad. My feet are tingling and burning and I actually started to break a sweat but I feel great for just getting up and DOING IT!!! I am going to do at least 5 more 5 minute exercises today so that I get my 30 minutes in for the day.
The point is not to do it all in one go but just to get up and do it. I know by the end of the day I am going to be hurting so bad but I am going to feel so good at the same time. I have found my determination and hopefully in a week I can do the whole 30 minutes at one time but if not I am still up and moving and that's a good place to be.
YEAH ME!! YOU GO GIRL!!

Oh yeah Nursing and CF are worlds apart but I'm already a LPN I'm bridging to RN so it wont be that difficult since I have been a nurse for 22 years now. The CF is going to be a challenge because I have to learn a lot of math and math is not one of my strong subjects. We agree to disagree lol.

Excellent!! Start small, and build up. No weekend warrior stuff or it negates the whole point. And get rid of the chocolate cake Holy crap! you must be in pain a great deal of the time. Brutal! Absolutely brutal (((ER))) Need to be careful with the exercise then, and take it slow. Defo, watch the intake though. LPN to RN, = good move and the CF as long as it is something that doesn't hammer your GPA, run with it!

Oh that chocolate cake is a whole other story grrrrrrrrrrrrr. Talk about sabotage! Being a diabetic and having a secondary endocrine disorder on top of it I crave sweets like mad! My H KNOWS THIS but he buys the crap every day KNOWING that I have an impossible time refusing it. I have asked him to please stop buying so much junk food because it is so hard for me to turn away from it. His only response is "Well, you don't have to eat it" He doesn't understand, because of my secondary endocrine disorder sweets to me are like heroin to a junkie. I CANNOT just say no! I have to be in an environment where it is not available or at least in short supply or else I AM GOING to eat it lol. His reasoning is that he shouldn't have to deny himself because I have 2 endocrine disorders. He's a real friggin' piece of shit this one.
As for school, I haven't decided if I am going to major and minor. I don't know if I can handle that much work at once or not and I am afraid that H is not going to make school easy for me. He will still act like a child demanding that his clothes be washed, his meals prepared, that he not be disturbed and allowed to do what he wants regardless of if I need the peace and quiet or not. Did I mention he's a real piece of shit this one?
I can't get this oaf of a man to do what needs to be done around the house because he's so damn lazy it's a miracle one of my four cats doesn't have to breathe for him. The rest of the time he's got his head shoved under the hood of his race car and spending money we don't have on that damn thing. Oh you just don't know what I deal with every day and there is NO talking, NO reasoning, NO amount of begging, NO amount of demanding or anything that is going to change him. Oh he's a real piece of shit he is.

You know, as horrible as the things you write are, I cannot help laughing at the end of each paragraph.
You did mention that, yes, yes you did.
I shouldn't be laughing, sorry, but my sense of humor is quite twisted these days.
Re: Cake? Fill up on Teas or something...healthier. Must. Not. Eat. The. Cake.
Mind over matter and all that.
I can't wait for you to get away from this guy. He turns my stomach!

Go ahead and laugh I know I'm crazy lol. We have to have a twisted sense of humor or else this would kill us for sure. It's going to take me some time to get away unless he just decides he doesn't want to put up with me anymore. He's been pissy for the last few days cause I'm quite sure he knows that my feelings have changed. Every time he says "I love you" I cringe inside and I don't want to say it back to him so I just say "Yeah, I *mumble mumble* too". I do care about him I just...oh hell I don't know what I just but I know whatever it is I don't like the way I feel.
Like last night, I told him that my step mom is in the hospital and it sounds like she is in kidney failure. She's diabetic like me plus she has very serious cardiac issues which thank God are not an issue right now but, she's not well. My baby sister is her daughter, she's my half sister (we share the same child raping father unfortunately) but we don't ever think about it because to us we are just sisters and we love each other to death. Well anyway I told the H that if something serious happens to my step mom like she gets much worse, falls into a coma or God forbid dies that I will be making a trip to be with my baby sister. He just gives me a shitty look and waves his hand and says "BYE! I'm not going." and then he says to me..."I don't know how you plan to get there" I told him not to worry about going because I don't expect him to and I would never ask him to go anyway and that I would drive or fly to which he said, with what money and I told him that it would be his money. Then he says I don't think so that's my money and I can't afford to rent you a car to go out there because I have to buy stuff for my car and you ain't taking the truck.
I have not seen my baby sister in person since 1994, she's getting married in a cpl of weeks but I can't go because "we don't have the money" and I was SUPPOSED to be her maid of honor! He constantly holds money over my head but when I was working I cashed my paycheck and gave it to him. I never kept a dime of it because "he had to pay the bills" but yet our bills hardly if ever got paid. I even had to go hungry at work because I had no way to buy myself anything to eat. Now he spends almost his entire disability check on that fucking car. We live on $700 a month and food stamps yet my lights have been turned off numerous times, my internet has been shut off numerous times to the point it's now in his mothers name because we both have outstanding bills in our names with MULTIPLE companies, I never have anything healthy to eat, I'm not allowed to go to work because he will lose his money and his Medicaid, we haven't paid the rent in 3 years and now when I get my Fed aid for school he says that once my tuition and books are paid for that whatever I have left each semester is going toward his fucking car! That is when the fight is going to start because if he thinks for one damn second that he's getting my school money he can think again!!! I will take whatever I have and I will run for the tallest mountain where he will NEVER find me. I have to pay back the money anyway so I may as well use it to run if I can't use it to go to school.
I swear NEVER again!!!

Your husband is the vilest piece of work on the planet. Makes mine look like a Saint. Maybe I should keep mine... Total prince when compared to the one you have. Agreed. Run like hell. I'd much rather be alone than to deal with either of these goons!

You know? He has the biggest heart and the most sensitive nature but his PD makes you want to smash his face in with a rock! He will give the shirt off of his back to a complete stranger but if it was me needing it he would let me go naked. I guess he sees me as the source of all of his pain and trouble I really don't know and I really don't care.
He called me last night to tell me he cussed out and flipped off an old man with his 4 grandkids in the car then today he called to tell me he blew up at the ppl at his bank because they refused to deposit a money order in my name because I wasn't with him and my name isn't on his account. He was as hopping mad as an old wet hen and then when I didn't respond the way he thought I should I could hear the piss in his voice but he didn't say anything to me just "whatever" and goodbye. What was I supposed to do? Ring the mayor? Take out a full page ad in the paper? I guess because I didn't say "good job, good boy" it pissed him off. Oh well.
I know ppl in this city have to cringe every time they see him around town. I just know he's made such an ass of himself that ppl are wise to him. He's been showing his ass our entire marriage so I know he had to be showing it before we got married at least according to his mom he has. I know too that ppl have to wonder what the hell is wrong with me and why I don't leave but it's getting to the point that I'm just gonna say to hell with school and run. I'm so beyond giving a shit what his mother thinks or anyone else in his family for that fact. I've just had my fill.
And just so you know that 5 minutes of exercise this morning kicked my ass! I am so sore I feel like I've been rode hard and put up wet! Damn I'm out of shape!
