YEAR IS ALMOST OVER...

this is my "sum up the year" photo. mackenzie, daddy and mommy all making funny faces meaning we are all together and happy despite all the shit thats been thrown our way this year.



i have a black eye in this picture and the line going down my forehead is 20 stitches due to me falling headfirst into a radiator...of course i then had a horrible concussion and it was just a terrible week. i spent christmas eve getting the stitches out so that was of course fun. but other then that christmas came and passed very quietly this year. i didnt cry as much as i thought i would, it being the first one since losing grandma and dad had just gone back to florida about a week before...but it was still a little depressing. mackenzie got a new trundle bed, with "tangled" bedding and is in love! and she also got a table for a thomas the train set. she LOVES it, and barely leaves her room. i have unfortunately been back on the percocet pain pills since i had another car accident in october and got hurt with my back pretty badly, and then too with the head injury....thankfully there is no cravings and no addictive behavior here right now, i will always be an addict im not that stupid to think i have 'beat it ' but for now i am okay and managing it and taking only doctor prescribed dosages of medications. my back hurts incredibly bad so heres some more pics from the last couple months and im off to sleeps! -Tina
