Wow!

Well, so here I am. After being a fan of so many blogs I finally decided to start my own. I must thank Single Dad Laughing for giving me the courage to do it!!

I  honestly doubt anyone will read this, but you know what? I don't care. I am doing this for me as a form of therapy.

So.. here goes! A little background about me.

Actually, before I do that I want to make one thing clear. English is NOT my first language, so most likely you will find horrendous spelling mistakes and grammatically incorrect sentences. Thank God I am taking English this semester. LOL. Big shout out to Mr. Webb =)

Okay, got it? Wonderful!

My name is Alejandra. Ally for short. I am a 26 year old divorced single mom of two. I work in the medical field and currently go to school full time as well. I am still not sure what I am going to school for. Special Education? Nutrition? Physical therapy? Ah... I still have time to make up my mind. For now I'm taking the basics.

I am from Monterrey, Mexico. Lived there with my parents and brother until I got married to who I thought was the love of my life (don't we all think that... ha!) moved to California and left my whole family, friends and life behind to be with Mike, who was enlisted in the Marine Corps. Shortly after getting married, we welcomed our daughter Claudia on Christmas day 2005 (yay! Christmas baby!). Then in 2007 moved to New York and lived with his parents. (yup... I know) Even though right now we are at no speaking terms, I'm still thankful for everything they did for us back then. Since my then loving hubby had a hard time making up his mind about what he wanted to do for a living, he started applying for jobs with the government and that is kind of how we ended in lovely and hot as hell Laredo, TX sometime in 2008.
Then sometime early 2010, while I was pregnant with our son, he decided he wanted to party and not be a father anymore. So we split, and then officially divorced early 2011.

I must say it has been really hard being a single mom of two. But somehow I found the strength to pull through and keep myself together and make a life of my own with my 3 week old baby boy Kainen and his 4 year old sister.  I'll go into detail some other time. Lets just leave it at my ex-husband not being the nicest person and didn't care what happened to us.

Anyways, this post is starting to become more of a rant than an introduction.

I'm going back to folding laundry while my kids watch Sponge Bob.
