Lately I have been in my own little bubble while walking around getting little extras for Christmas and noticing that I am so much different than others.
I prefer to shop alone and I don't like going to stores with others. I can only stand to shop with my friend Ped. Not sure why.
I can't walk through the mall without holding something like my phone. I feel naked if I am in a mall and everyone has bags and I have none. I feel like I need to do something with my hands. I think it has to do with when I quit smoking, I needed to chew gum all the time and I played with my pens/pencils or whatever I had in my hand.
Another thing that makes me different than others is that I am friends with my ex-husband. Not just because of our son but because he is genuinely a nice and decent man. We still go on trips together and we still go places with our son. I think it is very important to let our son know that no matter what happens, there is no reason why if you break up it doesn't mean that you automatically hate that other person.
Last but not least I have an eye...thing that I was born with. My left eye doesn't turn left. While I was in my mothers womb my muscle attached itself to my eyelid instead of the eye. My eyes function properly (minus the not turning left bit) and my preferial vision is excellent considering however, I used to get teased about it a lot when I was a child and it has scarred me very deep down and I am only now starting to heal from the mean things kids can say. I am only try to teach Lil' Man that having diabetes is nothing to get teased over and not to let anyone make him feel less of a person because of it.
I love that every person is unique in their own way.
