#3, #2, #1...Happy Birthday to me!

  Yesterday was my birthday! I didn't get to writing a post because of being busy all day. Other days I didn't write because I was so sick with a stomach bug and headache. It is my sincerest apologies that I haven't been writing recently. For the past multiple days I will give everybody an update on what's going on in my family and a clue into my personal life. 

December started off a little shaky for my family. We had new tablets and were all getting pumped up for my birthday and the upcoming Yule. Everybody just says Christmas in this house though and I've just kind of gotten used to it. Anyway, as the days passed I figured out I was getting sick and feverish. I just didn't want to feel gross and icky on my 20th birthday! 

When my birthday came I felt great. My father sent me a card with a little letter written on the side of it and two stamps inside. He says he has an item for me but he wants to verify our address. This is the schizophrenic tendencies in him and I've honestly have gotten used to this by now. Irregardless, I love my dad and have accepted him for who he is, not based on his illnesses. 

So far I've gotten $20 in singles and am going to be getting $50 in the mail on a gift card. That's $70 alone. Then to add to that I will be getting $27 in the mail from Inbox Dollars in which I've painstakingly done surveys and other things on the site for. So altogether that's almost $100! In addition to money I have received a beautiful necklace from my daughter and a beautiful wallet. 

On the flip side the tablet that I got early has already malfunctioned and is going back to Wal-Mart this Tuesday. I am so disappointed in RCA now. Not only has mine been faulty but two more that were ordered are too! That's not where that ends though. Multiple people from multiple websites are disappointed with these tablets and are out getting better ones. There have even been complaints saying that the batteries blow up like popcorn bags. 

Now isn't that scary? I would certainly think so! What if someone was on their tablet and it blew up? I hear a law suit coming from a situation like that. If I were RCA I would get my act together before everyone leaves their products and the company goes down the tubes. 

But that's just my personal opinion on that. I'm sure that they are starting to realize that a lot of people are having complaints and its only a matter of time. As for me I will be getting a Kocaso tablet soon and hopefully that lasts more than a mere two weeks tops. I hope that tablet lasts me years. Well, its almost time for dinner. Have a good night everyone.

B-day Countdown #14

#2- First 5 years of life. 

My first 5 years of life we're good and bad. I was put into foster care at 2 years old. I returned home after a while and despite me loving where I was at, I was still going back and forth between homes. I was always between my aunt and foster family and my foster family even tried to adopt me. The court ruled in favor of my aunt though and then I stopped seeing my foster family.

Being with my aunt was really fun. I was the only child in the house at that point and I was a spoiled little niece. My mom just couldn't take proper care of me being that she has illnesses that make her get hospitalized at least once a year. It was very hard being away from my mom and my dad had to have supervised visits due to his illnesses. My first 5 years were probably the best out of my childhood, though.

But that was only the beginning...

B-day Countdown #15

Well, as you can see, there are 15 more days till I turn 20. Over the next 15 days I will compose a list of things that I have accomplished during those 20 years. 
1. I was conceived! 
My mother and father conceived me sometime between March 8th and March 14th of 1994.
This is a basic diagram of what happens during fertilization and implantation.

After fertilization and implantation, I grew and grew. 
From then until the point where I was born I looked like this. Everybody looks like this inside the womb before they are born.

I was a difficult child, however. For the last trimester of pregnancy I kept my mother on bed rest. A whole three month period of time! They put a cerclage in place to keep me inside, too. And when labor came, I was stubborn still. 
While my mother was in labor I didn't want to come out. I even pooped inside of my mother! Some time later I was born through an emergency cesarean section, poop and all. But that's not where the trouble ended. Despite my own 9 lbs and 11 ounces of weight, I had sleep apnea. 
I had sleep apnea so bad that I would stop breathing. I had a special monitor to check on me at all times, too. I couldn't imagine how much stress that put my mom under. Thank you mom and dad for giving me life! I definitely wouldn't be here without you two!
