I have been studying English for about fifteen years. I am still afraid of being unnatural and sounding weird. Please, help me to accurate my style.

Listening to Sir Ken Robinson...
MULTITASKING WOMEN WANTED
____________________________________wHAT?
Is that crazy crazy idea, stupid bulshit, something that just can lead a woman to develop alzheimer , is it already the buzz word de jour?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO0000000000000000000ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!
I am a woman. Sadly for many people, I have never been a "multitasking being" (I insist that can´t be human). And I wouldn´t like to be like that. That is a urban legend, a woman dreamed by men. Although, perhaps some women want to be a perfect woman who ´d sum up all the best in herself. Maybe Ken´s wife is of that sort, but she seems to me a poor exploited woman, far worse, even proud of it.
I am not like her surely. I raised two children on my own. Besides, I was able to care for nieces and nephews, and other relatives more than I´d have wanted.
On the other hand, I´ve been an artist all my life. I ´ve painted more than 500 canvas, I play the guitar and the piano, I am an humble composer and an humble author too, writing in Spanish better than in English, of course. Meanwhile, I had to scratch a living looking after elderly people for twenty years, and working at my vegetable garden, digging included, was the more relaxing activity I´d often practise. As a result, I am absolutely worn out, now that I´m fifty years old and look like ten years older, and nobody likes me.
When I was asked the next question: that how I managed to do all that I did, I used to answer that there´s time to many, many things when you have no man to make you waste your time.
Imagine if I´ve used all the time I´ve had in my life just to create....That has been my dream. I suppose I wouldn´t be a complete unknown by now.
Sorry if I seem so self-important, so self-sufficient and self-conceited. If I were a man I´m sure that I´d be a good stand-up comedian too. I am still a sort of such a praise needy...
