Things I don’t get


I know I am getting old (er) but there are some things that I don’t get…  like:

1     Why do women draw on their eyebrows…AND why do they draw them so high and arched?
2     Why do they put so many handi capped parking spaces in the parking lot…they get further from the main entrance… doesn’t that defeat the purpose?
3     Why do we have insurance if we still have to pay the bill?
4     Why have a fire place if the heat goes up and doesn’t heat the house?
5     Why have NINE traffic lights within 2 miles?
6     What is the REAL purpose of golf???
7     Why have a job if you never go to work?

The Journey


 Love.  Accept.  Look.  Enjoy.

Love what you have now.  Accept who you are now.  Take time to look around and realized who was beside your when you were on that road to getting there, and Enjoy the ride because basically that is all we have at the end of it all… the journey.

After all, life is really simple; we ourselves create the circumstances that complicate it.

Nothing is Missing

The trouble with the rat race is that even if you win, you’re still a rat.
~ Lily Tomlin



If life isn’t what you thought it was going to be;  or if you thought you would be in a different place in the grand scheme of things then you are right now; or if you just thought you would feel differently about something once you made it there… then you are not alone. It seems that we all rush to “be” or “become” something or someone only to find at the finishing line we are not fulfilled.  The true ticket to success is to  love who we are regardless.  Then maybe wherever we are in our life… it won’t seem like we are missing something.

Attitude Check... How do ya feel???


Attitude Check!

You are not the center of everyone’s universe.  You need to remember that the world will not revolve around you.  You might have something happen to you that is important or traumatic or life changing, but that does not mean that it will affect other people in your life the same way.  You cannot expect people to always be your salvation.  You need to developed your own strength and not condemn those around you who are living their own lives. It makes you look sad and very self absorbed.  It also cause alienation from people that could or would otherwise be best used for other areas in your life.  So no, the world does not revolve around you, and the sooner you get that in life… the better you will live it!

This Is Not The End..... (I'm digging this song)

"Waiting For The End"


This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady something empty’s within them
We say yeah with fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something that’s invisible there
Cause we’re living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it, forget it, let it all disappear

Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It’s out of my control
Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It’s hard to let you go

I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got

Sitting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last
I wish it wasn’t so

I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I want to do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got


What was left when that fire was gone
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it’s like moving on
And I don’t even know what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So I’m picking up the pieces, now where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again


All I want to do
Is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got
I’m holding on to what I haven’t got
I’m holding on to what I haven’t got


This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady something empty’s within them
We say yeah with fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something that’s invisible there
Cause we’re living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it, forget it let it all disappear

Stop Bumping Me Mister!

Last night I tried to cuddle with Dennis while watching the election results. I call it 'cuddling' he called it 'wallering'... (Like that's even a word)!  Anyway, Every time I got really comfortable he would bump me away.  
After three or more times I said:  ugh! Stop that!! I just love you so much!
He said: I love you too!! Now go away!  This is my quiet time.
Gotta love 20 years together!
