I made the connection the other day to how I ended up at this point of introspection. I believe the universe works in mysterious ways, and you just have to be open to the signs. I missed them at the time, but they hit me like a two-by-four in the cranium the other day ( Read more... )

I am blessed.

Ten fingers, ten toes and all appendages.
No major health problems - myself nor my family.
Not just a roof over my head, but a home.
A great education - a means by which to support myself.
A wonderful family who loves me.
A handful of incredible friends.
Food.
Clothing.

The freedom to choose.

I truly want for nothing.

I have six more days and I’m SO GONNA DO IT!!!!  I’m ( Read more... )

. . . was amazing.  I left Monday morning - Ruby and I walked down to the pickup location, and the van came at 9:15.  It was an interesting experience.  The van was packed, and the poor driver was trying to organize all the people and all their luggage.  There was supposed to be a second van, but it wasn't there.  There were a few older ladies who ( Read more... )

One thing I came away from my relationship with John - I've realized I'm ready to settle down and have a family. I have also recently lost a fair amount of weight, and am thinner than I was even in high school. I was telling this in discussing kids with a friend, and she told me I'd look like a toothpick with an olive on it if I got pregnant ( Read more... )
