ode to bobbi

Bobbi Rae is not just my friend and roommate. She is someone I can talk to about anything and everything, and makes me laugh. And even though she cleans my room for me, this is not the reason I keep her around!! She is the french to my fry, the star to my rock, and the ho to my pimp!! Without her, I would be lost. I love you Bobbi!!

i heart books

I love to talk about things that make me happy. There are many and many things in my life that bring me down and this past week has been emotionally draining, especially at work. So to help me see past those times and those moments when the world gets me down, I just want to, for a brief interlude, point out the beautiful things in my life. Just go with it...
*Having a trip to Maui in 3 short (hopefully very short) months
*Rex. I could elaborate, but I think it is not necessary, and perhaps not the forum for it!
*Talking things out with Bobbi and Vicki, we can just curl up and talk it all over.
*Learning to curl my hair, and make it look pretty (or close to it..lol)
*Talking on the phone. To all of you. To Rex.
*Text messages. Send them my way. I am an addict
*Trying new foods, haven't done this in a while, but if anyone has any suggestions...
*Melmer. She is a super great friend (and my Maui travel companion)..I am glad we work together!
*My bed. It is comfy, and warm, and one of my best purchases to date
*Books. And books.
*Milkshakes from in-n-out..ok lets face it..milkshakes in general
*Looking forward. So many wonderful possibilities ahead. I feel so positive and excited about it all!!
*Church. Crazy things happen in the midst of bringing us all closer to Christ. It is awesome!

I think that is sufficient. I feel better and more invigorated to face the things ahead. Reminds me of the hymn "count your many blessings", makes me realize all the fantastic things and people in my life. Thank you all!! Love. And late.

it's new...

it is proving to be difficult for me to put into words what i want to say, which as it happens, seems to be a rather frustrating trend for me recently. regardless, i do want to share this bit of happiness with you. and i say and mean happiness. and excitement. there is a guy in my life. a funny, smart, kind, caring wonderful guy. a guy that lives in texas...which makes things only slightly more difficult. i don't have all the answers, or this whole thing figured out, but i do know that i care about him, and am more than ready to go on this journey with him. for your sake and mine, i will leave it at that, as communication is not my strong point at the moment. :) take care, loved ones, and know that my level of happiness is not conveyed at all by this post.
