1. What did you do in 2024 that you'd never done before?  Me and Em have been spending a lot more time with William and his daughter, so I guess being a little family of 4.

2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?  No, my resolution was to read at least 20 books, but I think I only read 1.5, lol.  I'll try ( Read more... )

I just had a weird thought.  I've been watching a lot of true crime lately.  It just captivates me.  All of the recent specials and interviews of Scott Peterson since we just passed the 20 year mark since Laci and Conner were murdered...now I'm watching some stuff on Susan Smith.  I was 25 and 15 respectively when those two murders happened, so of ( Read more... )

I keep seeing these posts on Facebook by people I don't know who have a lot of followers.  I guess their blog posts?  I don't know.  Maybe it's because I clicked on one so now I see a bunch, but I see a lot of posts about women who have a good man but don't always recognize it and take it for granted.

I guess I just don't understand it, and maybe ( Read more... )

Just a few things on my mind lately.  You see these posts going around Facebook or "Insta" (God I feel old saying that) and everyone comments with "amen" or "agree!" (which by the way, I always wonder if all or most of those comments are bots.  It's so strange how they've got hundreds of comments and the majority are all one to a couple words long ( Read more... )

I just have to take a moment and gush about my boyfriend.  Next month is our one-year anniversary and I still just cannot stop being blown away by him.  He's not the only nice guy I've dated, but one of very very few, and the others didn't last long and we were young.  I know he's an amazing guy, but I am pretty sure there are at least a few things ( Read more... )

1. What did you do in 2023 that you'd never done before? Haha, I can think of something but it's not Livejournal appropriate.

2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I don't know.  My forever resolution is to get into better shape and be healthier.  Maybe one of these years I can say I finally did it.  I ( Read more... )

I saw this meme a while back, maybe 8-10 months ago, I'm not sure.  It's two pictures of Monica from Friends and in one she's with Richard and in one she's with Chandler.  It says "I know you lost your Richard, it hurts a lot.  But just wait till your Chandler shows up!  He is worth the wait!"

I loved it at the time, and thought God, I hope so.   ( Read more... )

I've been thinking about something lately...I feel old.  But not in the way I've always felt old, cause let's face it, everyone thinks their current age is old.  It's a silly movie to quote from, but in Crazy Stupid Love, Julianne Moore says "and now I'm 44, and I'm so much older than I ever thought I'd be".  Ha, coincidentally I am also now 44.

They say that you'll find the one when you're not even looking.  I always kinda thought that was bullshit, but a while back I had an epiphany about never settling again.  If Emily is going to have a stepdad someday, I want him to be a good man so that she can learn what kind of man she should look for someday. For the first time in a very long time ( Read more... )

1. What did you do in 2022 that you'd never done before? Took my daughter on vacation just me and her.

2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year? Probably not, and I don't know.  I'm forever working on myself, to be someone I like more.  That may not be happening so far, but I'll keep at it until it ( Read more... )
