Happy Birthday, Olivia Jo

It's been a year. I can hardly believe how fast time has gone. I should have remembered... after all, Zoe is turning 17 in a couple of months. Time has not slowed down over the last few years. In fact, it seems to be picking up speed. I was unprepared by exactly how fast time would fly by. All I can do, is love her with all my heart, and cherish every moment I see that beautiful face.

I'm a couple of hours early, but a very happy birthday to my beautiful little girl. I love you so much more than you will ever realize.

So I read... a lot. Whether with a physical book where I have to dog ear the pages to save my place, my Kindle Fire, or through Audible, I'm always either reading or listening to a book. No offense to you out there who are fans, but Twilight and Hunger Games aren't really my cup of tea. I won't waste my time with 50 shades of porn. I like my emotions to be challenged. I like to think. I like to read books that are so descriptive that I feel like I'm there. I need new things to read, and hopefully someone will be able to give me some suggestions! My all time favorite author, is Charles Bukowski. He has written some amazing stuff, seriously. Women was my favorite, followed by Ham on Rye, followed by many of his poetry books. Next up, Frank McCourt.... He wrote an autobiography called "Angela's Ashes". It was a story about him and his family growing up during the famine in Ireland. His subsequent stories were about him coming to America and struggling to ...

I’m sure many of you have seen this image online. Whether it be Pinterest, Facebook, or various other social media sites. What kind of feelings do you have when you look at this? My first reaction was….Yay curves! I’m a bigger girl, so everyone should accept me and find me attractive for who I am. I should be considered normal and that’s what every man should be attracted to. I’m not a small by any means, nor have I ever been. I have had my moments where I got down to an acceptable weight and my BMI was within “normal” range. Although, thin and Ellie have never been mentioned in the same sentence. I looked at the pic again and let the words sink in. “Real men”….. what is a REAL man? I thought all men were real. I didn’t realize that those who dated thin girls were androids or creepy Martians from outer space who tried so hard to blend in as humans while walking around Earth. Then I thought… this picture is trying to say that thin people are unattractive and can’t possible by w...

Valentine's Day. :)

I had a pretty mellow weekend. Went out on a much needed date with my hubby Friday night, got to hang out with my awesome friend Mel for lunch on Saturday, and took Valentine's pics of Olivia. I must say... I know I'm pretty biased, but she is sooo adorable! Thought I'd share. From a technical standpoint, these aren't great, but pay no attention to that... look at the adorable subject! LOL. Totally hanging these on my wall, because they're going to make me smile anytime I look at them! Thanks for looking! Today's awesome : Friends. I love knowing that even though I'm horrible at keeping in contact with my friends, that I have truly amazing ones. I know that anytime I need something, my friends will go out of their way to make sure that I am happy and have what I need. I also love knowing that my friends can count on me for the same things. So, thank you guys, and I love you!
