memory

Ahhh the loss of memory is a wonderful thing. I have been sprinkling cinnamon on my peanut butter toast every morning now for about 6 months. I have to say I have seen a little bit of improvement in my memory...that is why I remembered about 20 mins after I threw away my pistachio nut shells I had my earrings in that mess too.

AHH my garbage was full and I had tied it up and it was sitting outside waiting to be thrown in the can. It was a gross one to dig through too. Fruit fermented, coconut milk, dog poo and mashed sweet potatoes. However I found these darn things.

Here is the kicker - I never take my diamond studs out of my ears and for some reason I wanted to wear these instead of my studs. They are from Scotland I got them when I was there the other summer. Craziness I tell you.

New YEar!

Hope everyone had a good new year!!!!!

I have been busy taking care of my girls...Ana started on new years eve throwing up and on new years day she was checked into the animal hospital. She was dehydrated, low potassium and white blood count was off the chart. She stayed there till the night and came home with some antibiotics. They don't know what was or is wrong with her.

Yesterday my other dogs started to throw up and act very mellow. So far she has been ok and ANa is starting to get back to normal. So that is how I have been spending my new year how about you guys :)

I did how ever did get a chance to get some LA plans done for the end of the month. Finally a fun trip to LA. One hint is 2 broke girls and hot in Cleveland.

This mural always reminds me of Joe when I drive by it. For the nan sayers not the eyes just the whole image and if you can't see it maybe it was just me who saw this side of him

Happy 2012

Happy New Year - 2012-

The crazy thing is that 2 people that I totally love and one I only talk to once a year and the other one I met in Hawaii both said the exact same thing to me before Christmas. "cheers to 2012 and maybe it be the best year ever"

WOW

I saw this guy the other day and pulled over and took a photo for you guys. He was doing a good job I thought anyway.

pop

So I thought I had my life sorta figured out. However before the i's were dotted and t's crossed I let it slip out to the wrong people. It is now squashed or popped. With hurts like heck considering it too me years to take the leap to do it and now I'm back to square one. I was so looking to the new year with a fresh start, now I'm just frustrated, angry, hurt and have walls back up. Not to mention the blow to my confidence.

It is times like this I really miss Joe, he was always my #1 supporter no matter what it was.

The good news is that I'm back to myself if I can feel things not being numb anymore.

peace

May today there be peace within.

May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.

May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.

Let this presence settle into your bones and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance praise and love.

It is there for each and every one of us.

Not sure who this is by but it was a favorite of Maria Shriver. I found it when I was cleaning my desk along with some other nice words.

quote for the day

"Run away from toxic people. Instead, surround yourself with others who are positive, who support you and want you to succeed."

This is something I really believe in - however lately I have been struggling with it...someone in my life makes me feel like crap with I'm with them and 2 times now has said really bad things to me. No matter what I do or say I'm not good enough for them. Sometimes I actually believe they wish it was me who died instead of Joe. I know they would totally treat him different them they treat me. I'm trying to weigh the pros with the cons to see if I should still put up with there crap. That is all for now just need to vent.

rocks

This is another one from hawaii - I changed it to black/white with a heavy grain effect. I'm thinking I should make copies of these and put it on my fence to keep my neighbors from putting up lights on it.
