Why I Haven't Posted...

 This is gonna be short and sweet, but I haven't been on so much this past year, because I've been dealing with a bunch of psychopaths who, I can't really figure out where they came from and why they're hacking my stuff, but I have a few ideas. It's either people that don't like my opinions, opinions "here," or opinions in comments I've posted on YouTube on conspiracy videos, or opinions on videos about the government when...before our new president is all I'll say, or it's psychos that I found chatting with my daughters on Discord from Roblox last fall without enough evidence to report them, because one was specifically looking for hackers apparently. I tried reporting them to authorities.

But whoever it is, they've made my life miserable. No matter what account I go into on the internet there's porn garbage or things meant to trigger me. I'VE NEVER SEARCHED FOR THESE THINGS. I've been called names like "whale" and said I looked like this or that, and then I get tons of recommendations to trigger me about these things. I have tons of screenshots to prove it. None of it is normal. This didn't start till a year ago. I can no longer go on YouTube. I mainly go on there now to just block recommendations and try refreshing, but same thing starts again. These psycho stalker hackers have taken so much from me. 

I just logged into Facebook for the first time in many, many months because I'm not a Facebook person anymore and same thing...on my home page feed was an ad with a girl twerking on a chair...disgusting. You know, I'm the kind of person that I believe everyone is entitled to their opinions and beliefs and I respect other people's opinions and beliefs. I did my fair share when I was younger, and I'm not a prude. But I've been through things in life where this stuff literally triggers me and it's not right to put me through this. I hate stuff like that and I'm raising my daughters to not be this way because I don't want my daughters to end up in a bad situation one day is all I'll say. It can happen regardless of how you're dressed but I DON'T WANT MY DAUGHTERS DRESSING LIKE HO'S PERIOD, if I have to be blunt and frank. I'm their mother and I choose to not allow my girls to dress like hos.

If they want to dress that way when they're older, then so be it. But while they're just kids and under my roof, no. You don't like it, I don't know what to tell you. Before I realized this was going on last year, they also took down my blog and I had to get a new dot com. I have every intention of moving my blog next month to wordpress from Google, because I plan on returning in September with evidence of what's been going on and I'm reporting certain companies to the FCC or FTC, or whoever, for allowing this to go on. It's disgusting what they're doing to me and it's hard to prove criminally, but I have tons of screenshots. And I have PTSD from things that I will not share, and this only triggers my PTSD. It's evil to do this to me, evil. This is why I haven't been posting this past year. I was so excited to get started again last year and it was taken from me by a bunch of bully psychopaths. So much for beings hort...

Lazy Girl Oatmeal Pancakes - Yummy

Easy Oatmeal Pancakes🥞

Yes, I put whipped cream on pancakes.😃
I make designs too... 

Well, hello again.😊 It's been a while... I've ghosted👻my blog yet again, what a surprise,🙄 but this time I'm gonna try and stay committed.😏 I've had a lot to say and a lot on my mind, but going through a lot, so my mind is elsewhere.🤪 Not sure how to wrap my mind around everything I want to say.

I do, however, wanna share my latest concoction, which is so yummy😋and easy to make. I've been meaning to do an update on my weight loss progress...that's on my blog to-do-list as well.🙄 

I've lost a lot of weight...but still have a little more to go. We're getting there.🙃 During my weight loss journey, I've made oatmeal a daily part of my life, whether it be a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast or oatmeal in a smoothie for breakfast/lunch. Saturdays are our pancake day and I'll never give up pancake day. I still eat pancakes.😏 So I decided to incorporate oatmeal into our pancakes as an experiment to see how it would taste and most importantly, to see if my kids would like it. 

The verdict is in...they l❤️ved it, so I've done it a couple of times now and as you know with oatmeal, there's many things you can mix into the oatmeal to make it yummy, like raisins and cinnamon, or craisins, or bananas, or strawberries, etc., so many ideas! The day I made it for the first time, one child had bananas chopped up in hers, one had raisins and bananas with cinnamon, and I did the same except I added walnuts on top of mine too - so yummy!😋 

I will add that I'm perfectly capable of making pancakes from scratch, but I mainly do the boxed pancakes. Not gonna lie... 

So here's how you make easy oatmeal pancakes...

Lazy Girl Oatmeal Pancakes

A work in progress. 

Ingredients:

• 1 cup pancake mix (double ingredients if you're making more than one cup - I actually made 3 cups, but this is just as a guide!)
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• About 1 cup water (use one cup and slowly pour and stir till you get the perfect texture-I found that 1 cup of water was actually perfect with the pancake mix and rolled oats)
• Anything to dress your darling pancake up: sliced bananas, sliced strawberries, a handful of blueberries, raisins, craisins, fresh cranberries, cinnamon - you get the picture!
• Toppings: I've recently added sliced almonds, shredded coconut, walnuts, and of course, whipped cream for the taste and to make designs with...

Directions:

1. Self-explanatory-I'm sure you know how to cook pancakes! But if by some chance this is your first-time making pancakes, just follow the instructions on the box. I cook my pancakes on low-heat and if I multi-task...then I sometimes forget and...well...we have to start all over again.🙄🤪Moral to the story, keep a close eye. One of my daughter's asked me recently, how do you know when they're done, and I told her when they get the little bubbles. And you can always take a peak under the pancake as well, using the spatula to see how it looks, so you have the perfect pancake and don't have to start all over again...🙄🤪

If you give it a try, I hope you enjoy! Definitely a keeper in my home!

With Love,

Carmen's Inspirational Creations: Love and Pain are One and the Same...

 

This has been on my mind lately and sort of stuck in my head, so I'm "getting it out of my head." Love and pain are one and the same... They really are though...can't have one without the other. Always some kind of heart ache when you love someone, including loss, but of course, heartbreak as well. Losing someone you love in some capacity or going through something painful with someone you love or going through something painful because of the actions of a loved one. Pain is the story of my life...but I grow from my pain.💔🖤💖🌹🦋
