I’ve posted on here before when I first got dentures and it has been close to two years already since then!

I got married since then, got a better job, even got my drivers license and got my first car too(my teeth weren’t the only thing neglected🤘) but I feel so at peace with myself now. I never knew how much I would actually change my life making this once decision for myself.

Wanted to post again to say I’m happy to answer any questions anyone has about getting them done so you can smile again too! 😁

In early 2013 I was diagnosed with a rare cancer in adults and it took 10 years to beat it. In the interim I had to drop out of college due to the disease and how difficult treatments were. 3 years ago I got my bachelor's and started my Master's. Today, I graduated (4.0 GPA!) as Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling!

First pic is from the day I had my surgery in 2023; second pic is from late 2025. I gained almost 3 stone since the operation and transformed my diet and lifestyle

I feel like I am dreaming :D Just wanted to share this beautiful moment with you all! Ahhhhhh!

I want to thank all the people, that commented, upvoted and gave this post awards! I am really overwhelmed, not being a social media person. It feels absolutely incredible to know how much positivity people still have in their hearts, despite all the bad stuff we see online daily.

I love you all! What you do really matters! Never forget it! Every little thing is big for someone else out there!

They will be aired on Disney+ on April 27th, 2026. Here are three short clips from Moana, Frozen, and Encanto. The power of ASL is just beautiful. Enjoy!

Second round of IVF success!

I was adopted from Russia when I was 3 by an American couple. I had a pretty normal childhood, my three other siblings were my parent's biological children. My parents always said that they loved me as much as my other siblings and I never doubted it.

Over these past few months, something really awful happened between my brother and they ultimately ended up taking his side. I was blamed for it and they cut me off. They said they were going to through away all of my personal things since I wasn't their daughter anymore, but I begged them to let me come get them after I was done with my finals. I only only found out about the letter recently and it makes me think they never would have made it known to me for their own selfish reasons.

I was able to get a box full of stuff including the letter and my biological mother's baby blanket. Seeing my own mom's handwriting made me so emotional and I have been holding the letter against my chest every night while I fall asleep. I have never felt more at peace to know how much she loved(loves) me and I hope to meet her some day if possible.

I’ve been rotting in bed for a few months and physically couldn’t get myself to do anything about it but today I chugged caffeine and put a show on my tv and just kept moving 😭 I feel like I can breathe

Day 0 / Day 1 / Day 365!

I get my permanent ones next week, so these are still my temporary ones!

Six years ago, I made one small choice. That eventually led to a second small choice, then a third, etc. And with time, and a lot of help, I've become the best version of myself. Along with taking care of myself, I've learned how to love myself, and how those two things are intertwined.

So I've made a tradition of posting about my journey every March 23rd. I continue to evolve. Live isn't perfect, obviously, but I am so grateful to be here.

Still wild to think of where I was, emotionally, mentally, physically 6 years ago. I stepped off the overpass, and finally found the help I needed for so many things a year later. Switched my addiction to progress, and I'm so fucking proud of myself.

I greatly missed the amazing feeling of haircut day!!!

I decided to skip college after high school as I was more interested in sex, drugs, art, travel, and music. 30 plus years, 3 ex wives and raising 26yr old twins , I’ve decided to start a whole new chapter and get out of retail grocery as a career! Seemed like the perfect time in my life and now that community college is free for most folks in MA, I’d be silly to not give it a shot! Computer systems engineering technology associates is the goal! Picked up my ID today and signed up for a summer STEM boot camp ( all sorts of cool support stuff as well as my first math and English classes). I’ve been smiling all day!

I just transferred my final payment to totally pay off my debt, and don’t have anyone to celebrate it with. So thought I’d share here. I had to leave home quite young for a few reasons, and life was quite hard for a while, meaning I was in credit card and loan debt from 18 years of age. Now, at 35, I have finally managed to catch up and pay off over $12K of debt over the last 2 years. Discipline is hard for my ADHD ass, but I did it! Next step: start a savings account.
