Well...

I had great intentions today for remembrance day....I bought balloons to blow up & release tonight in honor of Ian & Owen, and I made plans to go visit the graveside for awhile. I also made plans to light 2 candles in their honor tonight. Guess what...I couldn't do any of it.

I wore my "mommy of angels" bracelet and my "mommy of twin angels" t-shirt today-but I could not bring myself to do the other tasks.

Most of you know, we got a new puppy last night that we will be fostering until she's in adoptable health and can go to a good home. I thought for SURE this would be an easy transition. It hasn't been. Jasmine is in a little more rough of a shape as expected. She is such a wonderful dog, but subconsiously...I feel like it's really hard to "take care of" another person/human/animal-because I just do'nt feel that I am capable. She's a wonderful puppy and we're loving her-and she's going to make a great addition to us until she's adopted out-or re-fostered.

I am overwhelmed though of all my friends that posted on their walls in memory of my Ian & Owen. They were 2 loved little boys. I appreciate those that took the time to acknowledge them. =)

Loyalties & forgetfulness

I'm learning everyday how to use my "sensor" when it comes to blurting out how I feel. Well, I say I am learning how to use it, but somedays it seems that I can't FIND the sensor. I am more or less in this blog expressing MY feelings like I always I do....Pretty uncensored for the most part-so if you're not interested in a little negative irritation-please cease reading! =) I had every reason to have a fantastic weekend-and really, I did have a great one for the most part. We started out working the fall festival @ the boys school which wound up being a HUGE success-more so than I expected. Cris and I put a lot of work into our part of it that I commited to. We had great family helping with the kids, mom came & participated in the festivities by running a booth for Thirty One-my childhood friend came & ran a booth too and I got to spend all day with Cris, doing stuff for the kids. Birthday parties and then off to a "date night" to celebrate my ...

Frustration **baby talk WARNING**

I am feeling VERY frustrated tonight- I am still feeling blessed-mostly by my husband who is constantly my source of positive thinking-Yes, he does sometimes cause me to say bad words and yell loudly-but it is always out of love! =) At the end of the day-there is not 1 person I would rather fall asleep next to-or any other person that I would rather share my entire life with-than him. He is what makes my world go round and round-and can still 11 years later makes me weak @ the knees-Yes, sometimes I am weak in the knees over him because I want to kick him until I can't feel my legs-but hey-that IS marraige, right? =) Kidding of course-He is my world and I love him! No, I am frustrated tonight over things that were SUPOSSED to make our lives better. For those that KNOW us-you know that we took a leap of faith in 2008 and moved to Richmond to "better our lives". Lord-that was a joke- While we DID learn so many unforgettable lessons in our few years there-we were also p...

Mothers Day

I have a taken a semi Hiatus from blogging over the last month. Not because I haven’t had plenty to say, but because I’ve had plenty going on that finding the time to sit down & blog has been difficult. First things first-It’s been a ROUGH month! Most of you that know me personally, know that I have been struggling with kidney stones for 3 weeks now. Finally on Wednesday, I had surgery to REMOVE the horrible stone that has been causing me to be in so much pain! Not that having a stent in my kidney/bladder region is a lot better than a stone, but at least we are on the tail end of the misery and there IS an end in sight (I HOPE nothing else goes wrong). Secondly-WE CLOSED on the house in Richmond. We have been dealing with this stress for 3 years now, and it felt GREAT At the beginning of May to kiss that house GOOD BYE! We wish the new owners as much happiness in that house as we had (because we DID love the house). BUT we are glad to no longer be the owners!!!!! Prais...
