Welcome!

Domestic Violence affects millions from all races and social classes. Doctors,laywers, teachers, hospitality workers, to homemakers. While women are the primary victems this problem stretchs to the gay and lesbian community and also affects men who are abused by their wives and girlfriends. Never let us forget the children who are placed in situations they did not ask to be put in nor have the power to remove themselves from.

I created this website as a means of healing, and knowledge. If you are being abused and are in danger please call your local law enforcement right away. Also please utilize the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-Safe (7233)and your local shelters.

Life truely is wonderful free of abuse and Love Doesn't Hurt.

For the purpose of this website the abuser will be refered to as male since this is the most common.

becomes greater than the fear of letting go!"

Whats New!!
 
Ok this site wont just be about Domestic Violence it will also be about me, my life, my beautiful children, my wonderful friends and the wonderful life I am living. 
 
Going back to school FINALLY.. I start back in the fall to get my BS in Atmospheric Science.  We recently just moved so that "IT" has no clue where we are, and the boys are adjusting well.. Justin got into King Science Center,  I am very excited for him. It is a middle school 5th-8th grade that is geared toward Science, which is by far his favorite subject.  Keaton was finally approved for disability which opens a ton of doors for him at school for extra help.  By and large things are going well. We are still healing, and working hard on setting boundries. I have started to dip my feet into the world of dating and am having fun rediscovering myself.  For the first time in my life I am close to where I want to be, and I see nothing stopping me from achieving my goals. Looking back, I wish I would have left so much sooner. 

The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.
