This is my world as I see it—you might see it my way, you might not.
First I have to talk about my birthday. It was last Friday and I was 39 years old. All my friends and me got together and had a ball. I’ll have a group pic soon, but for now here is me and Suzy and me and Angie. They made my birthday really, really special. I [...]
Yeah, I haven’t written here in a long, long time. I have made many excuses to all my friends who have asked why I haven’t written. The truth is, I just haven’t felt like it. Physically and emotionally I am drained. Life is just too much right now. It has been for awhile, but recently [...]

Me and an old friend recently have started speaking again. I don’t even remember what we were mad at each other about. But now we’re over it. We made up about a month ago, but just in the last week have we started txting and talking on the phone about every other day. He has [...]
It’s Friday, need I say more?
Eldorado.
A very early morning phone call that made me smile.
New Jeeps, new houses, new jobs, new friends and new facts.
Bark for me please.
My heart broke for someone I have never met today. I literally cried and cried for her. She is going thru devastating pain right now, and you can read about it here.
Maggie’s blog was one of the first blogs I now read religiously. Her example made me want to take to my keyboard and type, [...]
