What's the best place near you to get a pizza?

Regretfully, you would think livng in a college community there would be the best pizza joints ever. Wrong! My favorite pizza hands down came from a little mom and pop spot I ate at in Mahattan, NY years ago : )

What makes you happiest in life?

Family Time

Been spending allot of time with my brother Troy and his nieces. It really has changed my life. I'm so use to being "The Lone Ranger." Knowing someone has my back, cooking for my children and I, playing with them and being a positive male role model, just feels great! I don't feel so sad that they have a father that absolutely refuses to be there for them. Although nothing takes the place of a "father"....they are fortunate to have some kind of male role model in their lives, and for this I feel both grateful and blessed!

Recent sadness

It's been a long time since I blogged. Not that there hasn't been anything interesting iin my life. Hmmmmmm, let's see..... moved back to Vegas. Live in a beautiful apartment community. Had a Mother's Day that was peaceful and receieved a card from my BFF and some beautiful wishes from FB friends. My estranged husband didn't email me at all.That hurt, but I expect that because we have been estranged for over 1 year now. Lately I have been having dreams of abandonement and it's caused alot of depression for me. I am looking forward to my renewed life here in Vegas, but I guess I anticipated that I would have a renewed relationship with people that I had falling outs with. So the moral of the story is that I have to brush myself off and keep it pushing because no one is going to attend my pity parties but me : (

Slacker

OMG guys...I haven't blogged and have had a hellavu lot of incidents worth talking about! First of all, my estranged husband totally dissed our 4 children. He stated that he could only help out with our children, like he does the child he had during our marriage, if I "helped him more financially" like that child's mother. All I have to say to that is.....WHAT THE HELL EVER!

On a lighter note, March 4th my eldest child turned 16! He's awesome! Thanks for all the love and support guys! Pic is of the birthday dude Kejan Joshua Smith~

Have made some definite changes

OK, so you wonder why I haven't blogged in a while? Well, it's definitely not because I haven't had a ton of interesting things transpire lol! I have cancelled relationships, opened myself up to new challenges, turned down two jobs with relocation adventures, and to elaborate on that....they weren't a good fit for a mother of 4 children, 3 being under the age of 5! So I set boundries....a new thing for Treen : ) I happily filed my own taxes, received a really nice return, you know what? I'm in control, and making sure that Trina is always fulfilled and happy at the end of the day....something I usually don't do.

I'm enjoying spoiling my children and my new chihuahua puppy, and preparing to stay put in my rental for an additional 2 months until my new apartment comes through yay! I feel hopeful, enlightened, and so very happy! It's great putting me first! Now don't get me wrong, my babies (even my 15 year old lol) are my TOP priority; well my faith and trust +praise in GOD is essentially first, then the blessings he gave to me,my babies, and then I just bask in making myself smile! I love it! No one can break this solid foundation! I think I know what finally happened friends......I found "reciprocity"......and it ironically it's coming from "me."
