I am.....

I have been away from my computer all day and when I sat down I found a challenge issued to the blogging community by a very talented and inspiring blogger/writer You Know It Happens At Your House Too.  If you know me you know I can't turn down a challenge.  So Challenge Accepted YKIHAYHT!!

The Rules:::

"Set a timer for five minutes and write.  Write using the prompt I AM ______________________. Don't edit, don't proofread, don't change it.  You are not required to share it with anyone, even though I hope you do, but keep it close by so that on those days when you are feeling really horrible about yourself (we all know that we have those days), you can look back and remember all the things that make you wonderful." 


And here we go.....

I am Tia.
I am broken.  I have struggled in my life to make the right choices in the past.
I am alive and healthy!
I am piecing life together, one story at a time.  One laugh at a time.  One day at a time and one struggle at a time.
I am hurt easily.  I don't like pain but I always find myself setting my heart up for disappointment,
I am a mother.  I smell like spit up and I speak baby and yell and punish and threaten.
I am a whiner.
I am me. I love who I am.  I love me.
I am shy and awkward in person in the beginning when I meet people.
I am a fighter.  I like to win and will do what I have to in order to survive.
I am sarcastic.  I can't help it.  It flows naturally out of my mouth and I can't turn it off.
I am excited.  For my future. For what life has in store for me next.
I am happy.  I have never felt just happy but I do now and it feels good.
I am conservative.  I have my own strong views and beliefs but don't have a problem with others having their own ideals.
I am honest.
I am in love.  With my kids, my man, and my life.  It is ridiculous and frustrating and filled with drama and fights and chaos and I love it all!
I am buzzing.  Guess that means my 5 minutes are up.
