I give up

It's been a while since I have blogged. I have been busy with Kimskakery with doing something that brings me peace and joy. I have been using this blog as a journal and as a why to get my thoughts out and if possible help someone. I have been talking about what I have been going threw in the last year with my son. And in the vain of being transparent.  The summer of 2016 has been alot like the summer of 2015.

My son who came home on good Friday who assured me that things had changed and that he was glad to be home and wanted to do better. I have said that last year was the worse summer but this summer has been by far the hardest. I have had to deal with more of the lies and running away again.

Things have come to a point that I don't even tell people when he is gone or what is going on because I feel like a broken record. I have had to deal with my Lupus being in high gear and my blood pressure being off the chart and it is all due to stress. I am not sure where things went wrong and if it matters at this point who knows. But what I do know is I love my cubs more than anything in this world and now I know that is why the hurt is so deep.

I have tried everything that I know to do and it is not enough. My son has run away and came home with 3 tattoos all over his arm. All I can think of he has made very permanent decisions with temporary information. In my mind he has become that kid that I use to warn my kids about. He is not the sweet little boy that I raised. He is now this boy/man who thinks when shit gets tough or he doesn't like the way things are going he runs away.

Just tell the truth damn it.

My son has been officially missing for over 30 days. And let's tell the truth he is 17 and a young black man no one is looking for him. The odds have been stacked against him since birth born to a single Mother with a absent Father. However he is still my son and he means the world to me. He is living with people I don't know know and places that I have no idea about. Where do these people come from that don't say let's call your Mother and let her know that you are safe. People in Charlotte are getting killed everyday and I live with that fear daily. But in the era of Facebook lies and Snap chat 24 hour cycle and Instagram celebrity nothing is real. I have to pray and love him and brace myself for what comes next. I have to love him enough to let him at 17 make these choices and pray that God will give him the Grace and time to fix the error of his ways. He not only needs to mend the relationship with me but with my Mother and his Sister who have both been hurt. No...

Being transparent in this season of my storm.

On the journey of doing this blog it has given me a sense of freedom about my life and my truth is just that. I have lived thru many things in the last 365 days that I had no idea I could live thru. My health has gone from where I didn't feel like trash everyday to now some days getting out of the bed takes a pain pill and an hour just to make it. But because I have kids and I am taking care of my Mother I have no choice but to make it happen. This was not supposed to be my life. I love being a Mother and it is truly the best thing that has ever happened to me. But this year my son has pushed me to the limits to wonder why I gave up my life to be his Mother. I am sure that being my son is not a piece of cake and that I can be the bitch from hell. But I have never done anything but make sure that he was always taken care of and provided for even if it was to my own detriment. If my kids had or have a need my life and health go on the back burner. Afte...

Come take a ride with me.

So here goes I am by no means a writer or a professional.  However I am a 40 year old mother of 2 teenagers that keep me on my knees in prayer. This blog is not meant to teach anyone anything it is a outlet for me. My goal will be to post everyday good and bad and to be transparent.  If I don't post it maybe a bad Lupus Day and shit no one wants to hear about I promise. Being a single Mother I have learned so many things and still have so much to learn. Kids have a funny was to change a selfish self-centered girl into a woman who forgot about herself so that her kids would never have to suffer. Now I am not going to tell you a fairytale or blow smoke up your assistance but I have believe that I am not the only Mother with two teenagers and suffering from a chronic disease and trying to make sense out of life. So we go to far Hello my name is Kim and I have a son who is 16 and a daughter who 13. I suffer from Lupus,congestive heart failure asthma and the new kid on the mixe...
