A World Apart

My world is different from a lot of other peoples.  In my world there is love, laughter, children, hope and excitement. 
However there are things that are not so wonderful, lack of a permanent job, my boyfriend leaving to work in Chicago for two months, the uncertanty of being alone. 
Then you have the realization of good things that finally came through.  Like that of Health Care coverage that Lily and I haven't had for over 3 months (Minnesota Care finally came through), my truck died causing me to have to get a newer/used vehicle (with the hope it lasts forever). 
I am currently trying to get in touch with people from my High school graduating class.  Which is working pretty good.  I have an online web-store called Hevans"D"Beads.  I sell the beaded jewelry that I make there.  If anyone in the minneapolis/twin cities area wants to create a unique gift for someone or an event, I do that as well.
I am a follower of Mental Health & Domestic Violence Issues.  Having a Mental Illness and being a survivor of Domestic Violence has that tendency.  We have no idea when my Mental Illness happened or why it happened to me.  It could be a chemical imbalance thanks to a stroke I suffered when I was 23.  Or it could be due to stress that happened when my ex-husband tried to strangle me.  It is thanks to a wonderful Psychiatrist and a very nice drug combination, that I am doing very well.  I am able to function as a productive member of society.
