I am speechless and helpless.

Sometimes I get the itch to go out for a drink thinking I might miss meeting the woman of my dreams, but then I realize the woman of my dreams isn’t at a bar at 12:36 on a Wednesday morning. No, the woman of my dreams is asleep in bed with her lame boyfriend she’s only now beginning to see is lame. Nice enough guy, but no passion or curiosity. It was cute when he called her babe at first but now it’s just lazy and distant sounding. The woman of my dreams just twitched in her sleep because I mentioned her. The woman of my dreams is not usually twitchy. The woman of my dreams likes Family Guy but doesn’t LOVE Family Guy. The woman of my dreams will engage in conversations that don’t necessarily cater to her in exchange for my moving quickly through the shop talk. The woman of my dreams has to be up at 7am. Maybe the woman of my dreams is at the gym, not the bar. I better get to bed.”

life.

Ridding yourself of the past is no different than ridding yourself of any kind of addiction. You simply can’t go back; not even one taste. It is an all or nothing. Letting your past creep in is dangerous because it can take over. You don’t have to let it control you; you just have to resist the urge to succumb to it. No pictures, no texts, no drunken calls. Nothing. He is dead to me. He is in a grave. It is time to climb out of the hole I’ve buried myself in along with him.

Life must move on. The world doesn’t stop spinning just because you can’t see the light of day. Life is waiting. Don’t miss out on it. Every second is a chance to be born again. Embrace the opportunities life has to offer- regret is probably more painful than heartache. You can love again, but you can’t live again.

Start living.

the two most beautiful people

yep, that is me in the belly of that blonde haired beauty. These two are the greatest two people I've ever known. The amount of laughs we have together will always bring a smile to my face, and I just cant say enough how much I love them. even though we all know, I'm the funny one (don't let them tell you differently)

what a lovely dueo.

never gets old.

baby lola!

So, senora just welcomed a new grandbaby into the world! Baby Lola, who is just the cutest smallest human I have ever seen. Roomate and I were lucky enough to be invited to go to the hospital yesterday to visit her and mama Mavi, which was SO wonderful because she was only born three days ago! Let me just say, this was the nicest hospital I have ever been to, which is saying a lot because I loathe all things hospital. But it was all ancient and antiqued with stain glass windows, and it didnt even smell like doctors. It was great! But I thought I might make baby Lola a present (with my begining crochet skills) so I crocheted her a blanket! It was my first blanket, and is rather small, but its a good start, right? Mavi and Senora seemed to like it, so thats all that matters I guess. SO thankful that both Mavi and Lola are safe and heathly and I'm excited to see her growth in these next three months. New life is just so exciting!
