Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: What kind of person are you: 5 of 47

What kind of person am I? Well, I've spent many years reflecting on that very question and here is what I do know. I am the kind of person that refuses to be kept down. I'm a fighter that is for sure. Throughout my 30 years I have faced many obstacles. I always seem to get up, dust myself off and keep on moving. In today's w...
Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: The best gift you've ever received: 20 of 140

I think I would have to say the best gift I have ever received would be my daughter Brooklyn. You see I am 30 almost 31 years old and ever since I can remember I wanted to have children. I was married in 2000 and we tried without success to conceive. We ended up divorced and I think our incapability to conceive played a smal...

I have many things I would like to do in my life so I'm not sure if I could narrow it down to just 10 but here we go. First of all I want to have a rewarding career. I've been working for 13 of my 30 years and have yet to find a career that I'm proud of. Sure, I've had various jobs that I have liked but nothing that last. I ...
Parenting & Pregnancy > Fertility & Infertility Issues Possible signs of a miscarriage: 2 of 6

Miscarriages are a very emotional time in someone's life, not only for the woman experiencing it but for her partner and her entire family too. I am 30 years old and have gone through 8.

Creative Writing > Memoirs Memoirs: Have you ever fallen in front of a person and what was your reaction?: 44 of 121

Have you ever fallen in front of a person and what was your reaction? I was working in a factory making fuel lines for the Ford F150 trucks.

Relationships & Family > Siblings The relationship between brothers and sisters: 21 of 40

Our relationship was a strained one at best growing up. My brother always got what he wanted and was hardly ever punished. I always felt like he was the "Favorite" one. I was always getting into trouble. I always had a curfew when he could come and go as he pleased. I was always told this was because I was the girl and that ...
Pets & Animals > Dog Care & Health Why a dog should not be hit: 3 of 5

This is purely just my opinion but I think you should never "hit" an animal. When they misbehave a small "spat" will suffice just as well. You don't have to beat your dog to train them. There are all kinds of ways to train them that are more effective and more rewarding to both you and the pet. There is a point to where a "s...
Politics, News & Issues > News (Other) What would you do if you won the $370 million lottery in Ohio?: 12 of 18

What would I do with $370 million? What a great question! First and foremost I would pay off all my debt. I have had so much for so long that it is all piled up and I fear I will never get out from under it. Then I would buy a car and I wouldn't even buy a new one. I have been without a vehicle of my own for about a year now...
Relationships & Family > Married Life Is it true that men do not do their share of housework?: 10 of 15

In my experiences I can say yes men do not do their share of the house work. I was married for 5 years and I don't think my husband ever washed a dish or folded a towel not to mention clean the bathroom. I don't think every man is like this though. I believe somewhere out there, there are men that do help their women with th...
