tuesday!

hi friends!

i dont have a great topic to discuss~

(do i ever, really?!)

does anyone have any

new years resolutions?

i never like to make resolutions.

i feel like, after about a week.....(or two days....)

they fall by the wayside.

i just

want

to

find

HAPPINESS.

i want to fill my life with people, items, things, ANYTHING,

that

can bring me

THIS:

joy: [noun]; the emotion of great delight or happiness caused by something exceptionally good or satisfying.

what brings you joy?

i found this over at

the pleated polka dot!! (a wonderful blog, btw!)

and it made me

SMILE.

BIG.

big smiles and heartwarming things are hard to come by these days. i'm not going to lie.

however, i am convinced that with some hard work, help of my loving family and friends,

i will truly find

love,

hope,

peace

and so much more!

what are your new years resolutions? what do you do when you are sad?!?

happy tuesday bloggies! you all make me smile........BIG!

xoxoxo

smiley sunday!

hi bloggies! happy day to you!

only.......

6 more days till christmas!

i can

NOT

believe

it.

seriously.

where does the time go?

it seems like i was so prepared......and then, well, life kind of swooped in and thru

my whole world upside down and now

i am not

ready.

i did a little shopping last night with a cute little friend of mine.

ok, she's not really little....as in like 'little people'....she is 5'5 ! and beautiful!

we had a total girls night out/in.

shopping. coffee. pizza.

i mean that makes life good right??

i wish it were that easy.....

i prayed this morning for strength and to help heal my hurting heart. i pray

everyday for that. i know time heals all wounds but this

is rough.

how do you go thru the holidays trying to smile on the outside when

your heart is breaking

to

pieces on the

INSIDE?

not fair.

everyone says that god gives us 'challenges' to make us stronger. he will

never give us more than we can

handle.

but gosh darn it. i thought by this time in my life that things would be easy!

anyway,

today the little princess' and i are going to see 'a christmas carol'.......

and

dinner.

another

totally

fun

girls day

OUT!

thank goodness for those beautiful dolls because they have been my venting ground, my strength

and

MY

SANITY!

love you guys! xoxo

my middle princess. or princess # 2, as commonly referred, keeps

posting the most prevailing, strong words, picture, quotes

on my facebook wall

EVERY DAY! it gives me

guidance and trust, knowing that i am strong and will

get thru

this

heartbreaking time in my life!

i hope you are all out doing some kind of holiday fun stuff with your friends

and

families.....

drink some of this yumminess.......

well, i had lots more holiday pics, but for whatever reason.....

my computer will not upload.

wth?

ughhh.

every time i try to do one little thing, i seem to get roadblocked.......god is testing me....i

just know

it!

have a blessed smiley sunday and i hope you all get your last

minute gifts wrapped, goodies baked and enjoy this holiday week!

xoxo

t

festive saturday!

its the weekend before

Christmas!!!

i would love to hear from all of you and

learn what's on the agenda

this weekend!

i have had a busy, emotional, sad week.

i made the decision to

move out.

yes.

here i am.....

(well, i moved last weekend, yes, two weeks before xmas)

i

feel that

the things in my relationship with my significant other

were not

going

in the right

direction. (yes, even tho i referred to him as the 'hubs') we

were not 'legally' married.

its just a piece o paper right? well sort of.

i think you come to a point in your life when you feel

if you are not

completely

happy,

then you need to decide

what to do.

i am VERY sad. i miss him. i miss our togetherness, our talks, our silliness.

(you are probably like, why the F did you leave then?)

i think that there are a lot of factors that

played in my decision. without getting

too deep and depressing all of you for god's sake,

i felt like our relationship was not where it should have been

and i felt many times that my feelings were not taken into

consideration, big or small.

but here nor there, i hate being sad. especially this time of year.

sooooo i want all of you to cheer me up!

tell me all your fun holiday plans so i can live vicariously through you!

today i attended my FIRST ZUMBA classs!

wooooo! hoooooo!

ooooohhhh myyyyyyy gooodnessssss!

what an amazing workout! and fun none the less!!

i went with princess # 2 and # 3. then princess # 3 decided to 'teach' us some floor

moves. omg. my thighs, butt and hips better look

amazing SOON! i was dying!

tonight, i am headed out to go christmas shopping and have a fun girls night with a friend!

please keep me in your prayers and hearts. this year has been a rough way

to go.

i am excited that 2011 will be new and offer many exciting opportunities!

happy holidays,

love,

t

hello lovies!

it has been WAY

way

way

too long!

yes, it appears that i may have fallen off the beaten path......and i did.....for

almost 3 months.

but, i have had a lot going on in my little end of the world.

my sweet, beautiful, loving sister

lost

her

fight

to

cancer, sept. 28th, 2010.

if you have ever lost a family member, a close friend, a pet (yes, i did just say that).....you know how much your

heart

can

ache.

its the most awful feeling. i feel blessed that she was a part of our

lives and touched so many people.

she had almost 500 visitors at her wake and every single

one of them

were so sincere with their kind words.

thankfully, she did not suffer long, but it was so fast. there were

so many things i wish i would have done with her, or said.

i am also going thru some personal relationship issues and i

feel that this blog helps me focus on fun things instead

of negative energies!!!

soooo i want to just say happy holidays to all

of you!

thanks for taking the time to read about me......

my trials, tributes, tribulations, triumphs......

life works in mysterious ways and i feel

VERY

strongly that GOD has an amazing plan for

ME!!

love,
