WORLD A.I.D.S. DAY!!!!

Just a moment to remember those who we have lost to this terrible disease. We miss you and you will never be forgotten.

TIME......

Wow! As I watch the time slowly ticking toward December I wonder,"where did the time go?". I can't believe that I am about to be that much closer to 30. I remember so well thinking how old that sounded to me. But I will always be thankful for one BIG thing....I'm always gonna be the YOUNGEST!! Somehow that is supposed to make me happy or something. Maybe the person who said that being young was good...did not have older siblings. But without the fights, the noogies, the lectures and the chemicals in my eyes I would not be who I am today. So with that I will say "Thank you!" to my sisters and depart for now.

Another "Turkey Day" is here at last! I time to reflect on what we are thankful for. So I thought I would take a min to share a few of mine. In no particular order:
1.) For having the worlds most forgiving mother. I love her more & more everyday!
2.) For having such a loving and supportive other half.
3.) My big sister(s) And yes ALL of them.
4.) Friends and their kids that call on these happy days
5.) Having the best "Family" ever ( this is in reference to non-blood choice family)
6.) The Baker family!!!!!!!! I love them so much!
7.) And last of the few I will share for now........My CREATOR!

HAPPY TURKEY DAY

Shedding some light....

So once again I will reiterate what I had said before....up until yesterday I was without the internet at my home. Thus making it next to impossible to post. But thru the miracle of a thing called money once again I am connected to the world. So a bit of an update on things as well as more "excuses" on why I have not posted. About 2 weeks ago I was on the phone with my mom when I moved wrong and my back popped. I was unable to breathe or talk for a minute or two. Luckily she hung up on me to call Brian who had just left for work. I spent almost 7 hours in the E.R. to make sure nothing happened to the nervous system. After much pain and waiting we concluded that somehow I managed to sprain my back! Only I could pull something like that off. So now that I have a connection again and a glorious thing called "PAIN MEDS" I will give this another go. Oh yes and BTW I wanted to see what my weird sisters were talking about... Some TWILIGHT book series! I LOVE IT!!!

A sigh of relief!

Well it's official I now have medical coverage and can go to the DR. to get all better. Y'all have no idea how long I have been tryin for this. So keep your fingers crossed that all goes well and we find out what exactly is wrong with me. OK I know I left that door open for all sorts of comments but I am shutting it now so don't go there. LOL Love ya all

Please forgive me!!!

So I know I have been bad about my posts yet again. But let me explain.......

I do not have a computer at home so I must post from our dear friend the public library!! Not that this is bad but here it is weird. There are county libraries and city libraries. At the county I cannot check all the sites I go to such as my space and so on. And the city libraries are so packed with kids checking their my space that it is difficult to get a spot. I have 35 min to do everything I need to. IE e mail my landlord read e mail from mom so forth and so on. So I will continue posts when time allows. Not only is there the time constraint but I have been very ill as of late. I went to the emergency room with a 2 week old headache that made me unable to see. The "migraine" is not gone since the prescription will cost $260 without insurance. Whats sad is that is only 9 pills. But I will start my studies of Spanish and dumb myself down so I might find a job here in la la land. Till next time love ya all

All too soon

Well here it is the middle of September and it hit me..... The "HOLLIDAYS" are coming!! The husstle and busstle of shopping and EVIL people forgeting the reason we have this holliday in the first place. The dread was overwhelming. Then I stopped long enough to realize that this is the reason these people act this way. They dread it instead of embracing the thought of giving and good cheer. So since I have yet to return to the world of retail I just might be able to enjoy and truly celebrate the season once again. We should all make a conscious effort to spread the seasons love in these difficult times.

My sad awakening to the corparate GIANT

So all along people have told me what a horrible place it is. But my loyalty ran strong. This bad place will remain nameless do to unwanted legal attention. lol Well I would like to join you all in this hate but alas I am a poor kid so I will still do most of my shopping there. It came to my attention that this bad place is just getting worse. When will we find a company who is honest about their claim about a main focus of customer satisfaction? If I had the financial backing this would be my goal. I understand that there is a lot of dishonesty in the world and that you have to make certain policies to protect yourself from those that use it to their benefit. But come on lets get real about "taking care of the customer"

Not again

OK this whole once a month thing really needs to stop. I am once again connected to the WWW so let's just hope I can be more informative. As my sister has done so will I since there has been so many things note worthy in our lives. We now reside in Phoenix, AZ but are closer to the 5 surrounding cities than downtown Phoenix. I am currently waiting for the paper work I need to transfer my license to AZ. Brian was able to transfer so he is still a wally world guy. Mom is here helping with the many repairs and fine details of getting this house in order. I HAVE A POOL HERE. My furry baby boy will turn 12 on Sat. I can't believe that one. But all in all things are great. I will write more often I swear. Till next time

WOW!! Over a month since last we spoke... So much to tell of. After several ups and even more downs we have come to the decision of moving to Phoenix, AZ. Why one may ask. Well after applying for 30 or more houses and apts., and being denied everyone of them we decided to take the advice of a kind old woman, we like to call MOM. So in a short time we will be Arizonians. Also The end of my excitement with Harry Potter This is a very sad moment in time for me. Kudos to J K on the amazing end to a legacy. But I will give many more details soon to come when I once again am attached to the electronic world. Oh yes and my dear sis Paris Enjoy the book.....

The drastic incline...

Well the past few months have been nothing more than a drastic incline before the initial drop off of the roller coaster of life. I have just about reached the summit and wow the loops life is about to take me on. I am nauseous already. I don't think I am ready for this ride quite yet but I just need to hold on for dear life and pray I don't lose anything thru the thrashing and spinning. I will try my best to keep you posted as to where the loops, turns, cork-screws and dips may take me. I love you all.

Photo Shop

So I have been playing in this wonderful program and here are a few of my creations. I hope you enjoy them.

The insomniac never dies.....

So once again I sit here at this ungodly hour wondering why. I cannot sleep so therefore I write.

Watching the sunrise is such a wonderful thing.....

The colors
The sounds
The smell of morning dew

What a perfect time to contemplate all the things in life that seem too minuscule to worry about during the hussle and bussle of daily routine. No worries of money, love, work, health. Just you and your maker in an intimate one on one conversation of nothingness. That is my paradise.

Necessary evil

As my mother has said for as long as I can remember....Cars are a necessary evil!! My oh so wonderful vehicle died on me on June 1st. I was told a hundred different things that "could" be wrong with it. Come to find out the radiator burst and the fan broke into 3 pieces. But....$400 later it is back to running like the piece of crud that it is. So now we are mobile once again. Thanks to all who helped.

Joining in on the family fun

Well I decided that my sisters are having way too much fun blogging for me not to join in. So from here on out I will be posting a few of our events that might be noteworthy. So... till then I love you all.
