I'm so happy I got to spend Christmas w/ my family!!
Well,on a down-swing...Today is my last day in the freeworld for 9 months to 2 years,and I'm going nuts thinking about those cuffs being put on me in court.But its reality.My hopes for probation have been shot down by too many people/lawyers that know the Judge,and know she uses past offenses,even if it WAS 1992,1993...just wayyy back when I was a wild child.No violence,just hot checks(my own acct)..STILL considered theft.I GET that...but the thing is,when my lawyer didn't give me my Oct.Court date,that was a bad mark on me.THEN,I just HAD to open my big mouth and tell my lawyer what a ding-dong he was for not doing his job.THAT sealed my coffin."Some things are better left unsaid" On a lighter note!! My blog will be updated by LETTI ...my bestest blogger buddy and more especially the best friend I've had for a really long time.In fact,she prettied-up my blog page! It's such a relief to know that at least I won't be "out-of-site-out-of-mind",thanks to Letti...even though she has the most precious baby boy she not-so-recently gave birth to...so asking her to do this was hard to do b/c I KNOW she has her hands full w/ baby Jaxon(and hubby of course..lol)..but she emailed me back and said she would "gladly" do it,and was already gona ask ME if I wanted her to update my blog.Post new addresses,in case I'm moved to a different prison..and most importantly posting my prison number.Once your in prison,your mail will follow u to any unit u are moved to.But jail-mail gets returned to sender,if I'm not there,and have already been sent up the river.
I have been up 2 my ears packing away important stuff,so my important things like my baby books,and baby pictures,memorable things that can't be replaced...I won't get probation and my family knows this...so the phone has rung non-stop.I can't even get through a conversation w/ my daughter without her breaking down crying.Just so glad to be w/ Rayven,AJ and ALL of my family for Christmas!!
This is the jail I will be in for a few months.Maybe 2 months or so: Tamara OOPS!... 206 E. Elm St... Tyler,Tx...75702
Then I'll be sent to a prison unit somewhere here in Tx.and it would be SOOOO nice to have someone send me a short note to say hi...or correspond with.But just so you know,and my faves list KNOW that I'm no violent/crazy criminal.This $18 Walmart petty theft was a misdemeanor enhanced 2 a felony since I had a theft by check(WAY back in 1992) and another in 1994...but this recent Walmart thing makes 3...and 3 makes a felony.And a felony leads to lock-up,if probation is not an option.And its not,for me unfortunately.
The worste thing that hurt me,was I made my lawyer REALLY mad.So he's hoping the Judge throws the book at me,I'm sure.So..."it is,what it is"....I wanna say this one quick important thing before I close.Thanks for all your prayers and I have really appreciated all of my blog-buds.I've made some really strong friendships through blogspot...and I want you to know how much I adore you.Thanks for not pre-judging me,and accepting me for who I am.Mistakes,faults,short comings and ALL...it really means alot.
If u write me,I assure you,I will write you back.It gets so lonely in there.So your mail and your prayers mean more to me than you could EVER imagine.
Sincerely
EDIT: ALMOST FORGOT.PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF I HAVEN'T BEEN BY YOUR BLOG.ITS BEEN CRAZY THE LAST FEW WEEKS,JUST GETTING THINGS IN ORDER FOR LOCKUP,SO I'M SORRY IF I'VE BEEN MISSING IN ACTION.
