Goodbye Past, Hello Future

 First, I want to start out by saying Merry Christmas to all of you taking time out of your day to read this! I hope you are enjoying your time with your families and making some amazing memories with them.
                Secondly, we will get to the point of this whole blog. 2019 is approaching quickly and a lot will be going on in the Donovan Household. A lot to where I feel Facebook doesn’t need to be a part of! So early 2019 I will be deactivating my Facebook account but ill still have messenger if you need to talk to me. Another reason I’m quitting Facebook is, I’m tired of my timeline being full of political bullshit and arguments, vaccine arguments and unfriendly people in general. I don’t associate myself with a political party but I do have my opinions on how our country is ran whether its going in a good direction or bad. I vaccinate my children! That’s mine and Scott’s decision. As a parent if you choose to vaccinate or not that is ENTIRELY your business but because I choose to vaccinate and keep my children “safe”, the ones who don’t please don’t sit there and attack me for doing something I believe is right for my children because I will NEVER argue with you why you should or shouldn’t vaccinate your children. Again, it’s YOUR decision and your family’s business. And thirdly, I’m a mother of 3 and don’t have time to read the drama or be apart of any drama.
                Before Scott deployed, Facebook consumed me and the hours of the day, so I decided to take a break from it and focus on our family before he left and it was the best thing ever. With his return coming up soon, I need to step back from social media and focus on our integration and the well being of my family. No one will know Scott’s return until we are ready for everyone to know. We’ve been apart for 7/8 months with a new baby in the mix and the kids will just need some daddy time. So please respect this.
                Like I said IM GIVING UP Facebook! I can’t speak for Scott and what he’ll do because that’s his decision. But I plan to blog our big adventures and our year instead of posting all over Facebook! So, you can choose to follow it or not.

Sending lots of love and holiday wishes
Ashleigh

Wow! I can't believe I NEVER posted our fabulous Kitchen Renovation!!  This project has literally taken seven months to do. Not what we anticipated but painting the cabinets took way longer than what we wanted and between coats we had other projects going on. But with project was one that had so many bumps in the road for us and we had to try and figure out how to execute them effectively.  First we took out this unleveled in the way set of cabinets. There was no way of having comfortable seating at the dining table with having this cabinet there. Then we knocked out the hang alone cabinet above the dishwasher. It was bulky and I just didn't like it. hahaha. The previous owners ruined that cabinet anyways with drilling hooks on the bottom to hang coffee mugs so the bottom of the cabinet was not functional anyways. We replaced that cabinet with two floating shelves. They aren't hard wood so we don't have to many heavy items on them because I don't want them to come d...

 I contemplated even writing this blog or even opening up about this part of my life because our world is a judgement world even when people are dealing with the same exact thing. I wanted to wait and express this in May or October but lately this has been weighing heavily on my heart and I know only three people will read this entire thing and those three are probably family members but in the off chance a stranger reads this I want it to help them!! I want to start out by saying what you see on the outside IS NOT what is going on on the inside. For years i have struggled with  Trichotillomania. ( also referred to as “hair-pulling disorder,” is a mental disorder classified under Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders and involves recurrent, irresistible urges to pull hair from the scalp, eyebrows, eyelids, and other areas of the body.) Trichotillomania can come as a symptom or sign of depression and anxiety along with a lot of other underlying issues and it affe...
