About me

22 min read
There are several Intros from various places here that I wrote to different kinds of places
Hi, I'm Angelique Jozette Clark Estes. My nicknames are Angel and Jozie. I was born June 24th, 1970 at Petersmith Hospital. Born, raise and always Lived in Fort Worth Texas. My mom's name was Bonita "Toni" Gay Clark. My father who I never met but would like to is James Alton Wilson.  I was born 2 months early becuse my mom smoke during pregancy and jumped off a diving board(or cliff depends on What story u believe). It may have been to kill her us both not sure. As a result I was born disabiled with cerebal palsey.  I have some trouble walking and talking. I grew up living with my mom, grandparents, aunts, and Uncles.I went to a special school for the disabled called Easter Seals until I was 6. I was mainstreamed in top regular school at kindergarden. Then went to Greenbrair(76-82) and M.I. Logan Elementry(78-79), Rosemont Middle School(82-85), And R.L. Paschal High School(85-90).  In 1989 I quit school and went back in 1990. I hated school and never went when I was young because everyone made fun of me.. I sometimes missed 56 days a year. I was a good kid except that.  I graduated high School in 1990 and got a job in a church nursey Arlinton Heights United Methodist Church. In 1991 my life changed so much. I met My furture hubby, my mom commited suicide(remember the diving board or cliff?), I moved out of the only home I ever knew, Moved in with my furture Hubby, Lost my best friend(Amy Rossetter) to a heart attack and was baptized. Not long after I lost my church job along with another disabiled girl because the minster Tim Walker thought it was a "less than perfect Picture of a church nursey. Some christan. I had two long term babysitting jobs but have not worked since. Hubby and I were married in 1993. I haven't seen my oldest Friend Cherri May since. His name is James Autin Estes. I soon went to Tarrant County Junior College 1993-1997. I got my Computer in 1997 and here I am. I'm 5'1 and 243lbs. Brown hair and eyes. I have no personal friends now just a few cople friends and one other.


I walk pretty well but a speech impediment. I'm overweight. I'm married to a man with Cerebal Palsey too. He's in a wheelchair. I've never had a job because I fear working. My self-esteem is very low. I cry very easy and my speech gets worse. I'm very sensitive. I'm not close to my family and have no friends of my own. They are all hubby's friends. I like staying at home to help hubby when he needs it cuz he works at home. We are trying to have our first child. I have a mild social phobia. I'm also somewhat obsessive compulse/ I'd like to see someone like me on Starting Over I'd apply but hubby would have no one to take care of him.




I've got about 4 versions of my story an the net. I'll post them all soon but here one Well, of course, it started before I was born. Mom had a thing for married men. She slept with 2 of my aunt's husbands. My dad was married and had 3 girls, the youngest 10 months older than me. Mom dated one guy since I was born who was also married. Mom didn't tell anyone she was pregnant. On the day I was born, Mom jumped off a Cliff (possibly just a diving board I've heard conflicting stories). Some say she was trying to kill herself then. I think it's possible. She wanted a boy but she didn't get that. She said in her diary she didn't know what she would do if she gave birth to a disabled child. Well, she had to face that too. I was 3 months premature and had Cerebal Palsey.She wanted to give me up for adoption but my grandpa and aunt talked her out of it.` We both always lived with grandma and grandpa. Growing up was not too bad. Mom NEVER drank, did drugs or abused me. But I was a timid kid and just yelling at me was all the punishment I needed. I was a good kid. Except for sometimes not doing my chores and not going to school ( I once missed 56 days in a year. She wasn't there to make me go. She was at work. Grandma couldn't make me. She could hardly punish me but she tried. You can't ground someone that never goes anywhere. I had few friends. This went on in middle school and high school). Anyway I still think I was a good kid too afraid to mouth off. Mom hardly went anywhere. Occasionally early on but less and less as I grew older. She hardly took me anywhere but shopping (weekly), Six Flags and Wet n' Wild (yearly). I only went to a sit down to eat resturant about 7 times before I met hubby. We did go out to eat but only fast food. One time I wanted to go to a class taught by the Blue Birds for babysitters who wanted to work with children with special needs. She wouldn't take me. I mean that could have been a career starter. I never had any extra after school activities like sports or band or anything except Girl Scouts.We were close in a way though. I talked and she listened but didn't offer much help with any of my problems. We had long philosophical talks about life though.If you asked my aunts and uncles They'd say she was a bitch and that's mostly true. But she wasn't all bad. She spoiled me about as much as a poor fmother with an only child could. I had pretty nice x-mas and stuff. I guess she was there for me in some ways. Anyway that gives you an idea of she and I when I was growing up.
Over the last few years of her life she went out less and less. Even missing family Easter and Christmas gatherings a few times. When I was a Senior in high school I was still missing too much school and I Knew that year I had screwed up too bad that I couldn't pass. I quit. I went back the next spring semester for myself and missed less and made good grades. Mom had NOTHING to do with this. Anyway this is when it all started. The year I went back Grandpa died in 1982 - long since gone. Grandma was not able to do much. I got my first (and only) job working in a church nursery. Mom refused to take me to work. My aunt had to pick me up. She worked there too. Two weeks before graduation it all started. She quit her job. She had the same job for 14 years. She never tried to get another. I told her now that she wasn't working she could take me to work. She did but Mom hated to drive so she always sat outside in the car reading while I worked rather then drive home. Mom drove me to my graduation baccalareat thingie and waited out side. I had to practically drag her to my graduation kicking and screaming. She didn't want to go. The next few months was uneventful for us but money was getting tight. In August we had a car accident. It was the beginning of the end. The car was damaged so it was not drivable. We weren't hurt. She went home and went to her room and stayed there. A month or so later we knew we had to something about her. My uncle offered to pay to get the car fixed if she would look for a job. She said no. We had no choce now. We put her in the hospital mental ward. It was a county hospital. She once called crying to say she was sorry (she never cried) but in that stupid place if you eat, make your bed, and do as you're told you are sane. She was home in 2 weeks but nothing really changed. I was doing everything myself - cooking, cleaning, and shopping for the 3 of us. Money was real tight.The next Jan. I met my furture hubby and I started dating. Feb 28. was a great day but awful night. The night before I got mad at my grandmother for turning off the heater in the bathroom when she knew I was taking a shower before work. I said loud enough for mom to hear "Ya'll don't appricate all I'm doing". Mom came running out of her room screaming "I've been looking for an excuse now I have one!" She ran out of the house. I went to work. My aunt called grandma and mom had come home. From work I went to my boyfriend's for the night because we were visiting a college out of town the next day. What fun we had that day but..... afterward I went to work and we had no kids that night in the nursery. Thank God. My boss came in and I knew something was up. She knew. Just then a driver of the transportation system I ride (who was a minister) came in and told me to call my boyfriend. I knew. Yes, she had killed herself. She used the pills from when she was in the hospital. She refused to take them. I told her to keep them in case she wanted to start taking them the way they were intended. Man, I didn't mean all at once. Big mistake. Anyway I did not want to deal with a funeral. She didn't want one anyway. She didn't want people to see her. I gave her what she wanted. God, I don't know why I gave her what she wanted she didn't deserve it. I never saw her body. No one did but grandma. God, how I hate that she did it when only grandma could find her. I wasn't surprised. I just went on with life. I went back to work the next Sunday. She os buried in a county cemetary with no grave marker. No closure though.
My grandma went to a nursing home in April. She died 7 years later. Hubby and I moved in together. That August my best female friend died. Hubby and I married 3 years after we met. He's disabled too and in a wheelchair. I walk pretty good but have a speech problem. I went to college. We got our own house a few years ago and are now trying to have a baby. I may try to find my father someday.


First, I'm not really an artist. I'm not good at taking pictures or creating art. I'm just trying to have fun here which is what the Internet should me. I know I'm not good so most of my stuff will be stock so anyone can play with it. I don't care just please tell me if you use it so I can see. If you want to use something that's not stock ask I'll probably let you. You can tell alot abot people by there favorites check out mine. I have lots of interest. If you want me to put you on my watch list send me a note and I will.

I've been away from DA for awhile just to come back to find You know have to pay to search. What a rip-off. I mean it would be worth it if you could search though specific catergory. I mean I needed a stock picture of a yellow rose but had to either search though other plant stock pics or all type of rose pics including are and photo pics that are not stock. I was really hoping now that you have to pay that search was better but I was hoping for to much. I won't buy another subscription unless we get better search options.

TV Show of the Day

Starting Over.

Starting Over is the best show on TV i think. It a reality show where women of all walk of life go to Start there life over. It's on NBC weekdays Usully about noon, but so people see it about 1 a.m. Six women  at a time live in the house. There are 2 life coaches.  Right now the is one pregnent girl trying to decide rather or not to give up her baby. She was homeless before she moved on the house. She's due any day.

  Another woman if trying to find her father she's never met. She's also dealing with her mothers death which may.....MAY turn out to be suicide.

  There is a mother and daughter team trying to fix a terrible relationsship.
  A woman trying to get of welfare and another trying to start a career.

I's helpful to see them complete assignments given by the coaches. It's my favorite show. You can find more here www.startingover.tv/index.html

Yesterday I told you about my mom but you'd think I'd have night mares about it I don't. My nightmare mostly involve the time right before I quit school. I'm failing and can't do amything about. it In the dream I'm always scared, panicing, If I quit I May be to old to go back. I can't quit I can't pass. I can't go back. I So Scared. I'm trying to fix it but can't. Plus in the dream I have to catch the school bus to go home. It's along walk from my last class to the bus. I can't make it before the bus leaves.But I need to go by my locker to get my books Or I will fail because I don't have my home work.If i miss the bus I have to wait about 3 hours until my mom gets hom. These were common fears the whole time I was in school. Not having time to go to my locker might have been part of the reason I failed. I'm disabiled and couldn't carry all those books. I had this dream last night.
Another common dream is fight with my oldest friend. We knew each other since dipaers but we so different.  We didn't get along alot. She was snobby.I haven't seen her since my wedding in 1993 Only talk to her a few times years ago. WE  should have been friend forever. It still hurt she didn't want to keep our friendship. I had a dream about that too last night.
  The last dream I have a lot is my best friend that died.I'm always trying to find her. It some sick Joke someone playing on me. I didn't get to go to her funeal. I didn't find out until 2 weeks after she died.
   I'm also have a problem dealing with a cousin. Once she got married she didn't want anything to do with any of her dad's side of the family. My side. I don't know what we did to make her hate us. I've seen her 3 times in 13 years. She saw grandma 2 times in that period. She lives close. I called to ask if she was coming to my wedding. She Said no. I asked Why she said Just because.  I was shocked she was at grandma's funeral. I kinda did think she belonged there. Her parents problably made her.
  Any Mom's death is still hard to deal with but I don't dream about it. Strange.

Thanks for listening. I now this is not about SO, but I believe these group are also good to help and discuss our problems  as the SO women's.
