Catchin Up

Well, as you may have noticed I haven't been blogging lately. Since my last post, life has just went into warp speed and I'm doing good just to keep up. We have started Fall and everything that goes with it full speed ahead!! ~ Middle School (yikes!), 5th Grade, Girl Scouts, Cub Scouts, Flag Football, Band & throw in there a SUPER cool Wednesday evening program at church and serving in the church nursery on Sunday mornings (I love widdle babies!!) ~~ Every evening is jammed packed with scheduled activities, sleep deprivation and FUN! We are busy but are having a blast! We have even gotten the chance to sneak away and have some good ole' fun at the park & the lake (even though it's getting pretty chilly out there). My mother has been up here with us for a little bit and we have enjoyed some yummy southern cookin! I told her that she has to quit fryin everything because it is not good for any of us~ To which she replied, "I don't know how to cook any other way." Typical southern woman reply don't ya think =) Seriously, the woman doesn't know how to cook meat any other way than battered and fried, and we have gone through more bags of potatoes in the time that she's been here than I have bought my entire adult life. Gotta love her though and I have enjoyed the help~ Deep Fried Southern Momma help!! Our family is abundantly blessed and thankful! ~ I'll also try to add some pics for you to enjoy!

Alabama~ New Orleans & Detox

     I just got back from an amazing trip with my good friend Jenny~ First to Alabama then to New Orleans. I am so grateful that we had the opportunity to stop at my brother's house on the way to visit for a couple of hours (wish my niece Maddie would have been there). My brother & sister-in-law were as funny as ever. I don't get to see them very often at all so the time was much needed! My niece~ the wonderful Tails~ was being her normal silly, loveable self & Maddie was missing in action. Man, I miss those girls! Now on to New Orleans~~      Bourbon Street was the typical "strip" that you can locate in every town. Bourbon street was a smaller scale Vegas and a bigger 6th street from my childhood. The smell was unique, and the art galleries that smelled like horse stalls was an unexpected twist to my walk in the French Quarter. I know it seems like this is going to be filled but nothing but negatives, but it's not. The buildings were ab...

Black Swan

  I went to see Black Swan with a good friend expecting to be blown away by Natalie Portman's performance AND I was. She did an amazing job! I totally believe that she has lost her mind! Lol! The movie is movie theatre worthy and I even think it's worth the late night price. I must warn you that it is somewhat fast, so if you have a difficult time keeping up with reality vs delusions you might want to sit this one out. Also, (obviously) there is alot of ballet~ so again if this isn't your thing you'll want to pass.  The only thing I didn't care for was the three scenes that added nothing to the plot but were strategically placed anyways. Apparently Hollywood canNOT make a movie without throwing some dirty scenes in. To be honest I was sitting there feeling mildly awkward while watching one of the scenes thinking...."Is this really happening?". I won't spill the beans on the rest of the movie just in case you would like to judge for yourself! Overall, f...

Hello...It's me

Well here we are again. Ramblings of the unimportant. My therapist would say that my first step should be to stop the negative self talk, but what would I say then? I am on a journey of healing. After nearing 45 years of various trauma, I'm afraid that it's going to be quite a long journey. My only prayer is that God allows me enough time to work through it before I am called home. I would hate to leave this life in as a disappointing way as I've managed to live it thus far. This is basically going to be my journal to healing. I need an outlet so I decided to dust off this log in and actually use it to get it all out of my head. Here we go.
