oh my goodness
After much thought today I've decided it would be in my best interest to start a blog. I've read a bit of my sisters blogs and they are awesome! Inspiring me to do a little blogging of my own.. It was early this morning when I was doing my make-up ( I actually got out of bed before my daughter, made breakfast for my honey, took a shower and began getting ready for the day) when I realized...... I was having some serious conversation WITH MYSELF!!!! This was a bit alarming considering that I know that this has gone on for quit some time, but I really think today was the first time I was conscious of it... AND COMPLETELY FREAKED out by it! I guess because I felt for a brief moment on the fast track to crazy unless I start giving myself some sort of social outlet. So here I go......... I have felt for some time now that I want to start writing. My first thought is naturally to write in my journal. I think about it a lot, and never seem to find the time. More accurately, I never make the time. The days and months fly by, now my daughter is 7 1/2 months and the days are lost behind me. So my desire with this blog is to say whatever is on my mind. Melissa does coupons/running, Hug does gratitude, and Im going to do whatever I feel like at the moment. I feel that is something I talk a lot about, being in the moment. Each moment. Enjoying what Im doing now.. loving the fact that once I was a super busy hair stylist, working my brains out, making lots of money, talking to people all day long, and it was sweet to have the means to buy whatever I wanted... NOW I am a full time mother, I make up silly songs/dance for my daughter on the daily (as long as she thinks I'm funny, right?!) I play pranks on the cats, and my dog aesop, and I get a kick out of talking to myself all day until my husband gets home. We are tight on money, and I will tell you that I have more appreciation for a 20 dollar bill (shoot, let's be honest a 5 or even a couple 1's) than I ever had before. However, I AM THE HAPPIEST I HAVE EVER BEEN in my entire life!!! I love my soul mate, he is my everything, and my angel. Just when I thought I would be alone forever he came along. Now we have a little girl, and our world is so different and so beautiful. I will say that I know that all the money in the world cannot buy happiness, and I absolutely delight in my relationships! For me, this is what life is all about.. OUR RELATIONSHIPS!!!!! K

I wasn't expecting to see a post yet...Glad I checked it out!! Now that YOU are blogging - I bet Amy will finally get a computer :)
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are so happy. I wasn't sure about that dark haired angel you married...he seemed a little too good to be true...Just kidding of course. We love him and he fits so well with our family.
I hope we get to see you on Sunday...let us know. HB
Yeah!!! Good girl. I love to read what you write. FINALLY! Can't wait for the onslaught of photos....and lots of them. Hug to. When I read what you both write it blows my mind as to how amazing you ladies are.
ReplyDeleteKer, I will say that I talk to myself all the time as well. A steady stream. I never knew (noticed I did it aloud until I was on that trip to China w/ my father in- law, Kevin's sister and her two daughters. They commented that they had never heard someone that talks so much with them self. I was like what??? Am I saying that stuff out loud? I love it....thank goodness we are such good company....or we really would go crazy! Think of me now....alone in the house. ME, MYSELF, AND I. I am not complaining. But it is a trip to go from one extreme to the next.
I look forward to the daily blog updates. I love you my sisters.
Now that you mention it - when I was with Melissa in MO to see Mom and Dad I could always tell when she was talking to herself...she hummed a lot, sort of under her breath like and I could tell something was going on in that head of hers. The eyes don't lie...Waiting for the next installment. HB
