Goodbye to the Boy
After 9 months and 24 days its time to say goodbye to the boy. Its over. Really. I haven't called him or made yet :another: proclamation, the heart just knows when it needs to move on and that's what I'm doing and yet...there's a part of me that still hoping.

Reflections...
So, I'm back from Detroit and while my trip was pretty uneventful, I am SO glad that I went. Because had I not gone, my sister would have been sad on her birthday. I know its so hard for her living in a new, cold, city, and I just wanted her to have a fabulous day. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to go and be there for her on her birthday.

My Philosophy: Only Positivity, the Goal: Be Happy!
Its amazing how the simplest things can seem like magic. I had my first Valentine's Day and the pure kindess and sweetness...was just perfect. The holiday isn't a big deal. But it does serve a purpose---remind us to care for one another. Respect one another. And show our love and appreciation for each other. And that's always a good thing. I am so ( Read more... ) -
No more drama?
It seems like whenever one portion of my life settles down another one wants to stir up. I cannot believe the way things have unraveled and a year ago I would have NEVER predicted this outcome. Life continues to show me who and what is in charge. People say that things happen for a reason and I cannot wait to see the reason for all this newfound ( Read more... ) -
Torn Between the Two
So one side of my life is GREAT. The other not so great. Personally, I am doing really well. Devilish people tried to use their evilness to bring me down, but I am doing just fine.

You take the good, you take the bad, you take 'em both & then you have. . .
Life is good at throwing curve balls. It seems like everytime I have something under control life throws yet another curve ball--usually more curvy than the first. And I'm taking them, swinging at 'em, keeping my head up but sometimes I wanna be like DAMN IT, GIMME A BREAK! And these curves aren't always bad, just sometimes something that I'm not ( Read more... ) -
It's not funny how life works out
I hate that saying, "Its funny how life works out" because in reality there is rarely any humor in life at all. Life is complicated and messy and never works out how we envisioned it. Don't get me wrong, sometimes its better than we ever imagined it could be...but those times are rare. Those times are the big miracles that God bestowes upon us to ( Read more... )
