Day 13

A letter to someone who has hurt you recently

I'm going to come back to this one.  I'm having a very emotional day and if I start writing a letter, I'll be bawling in minutes.  I promise  Day 13 will happen.

Day 12

How you found out about blogger and why you made one

I think I found out about blogger when my cousin made one.  Somehow, I eventually came across addiction blogs and that soon became my addiction.  After lurking for a long time on those, I decided to use this as a way of coping with the alcohol issues my brother has.  I have since deleted all the posts that I originally started with, concerning those problems.  I had left the blog writing world for a long time and when I was ready to come back, I was a different person and wanted my blog to represent the new me.  My brother still has serious addiction problems that we deal with everyday, I just haven't had any horrible instances to have to write about - thank god.

Anywho, writing the blog is my secret.  It's what I do for me, without anyone knowing.  If know one ever reads it, I'm 100% ok with that.  This is a form of therapy for me just to get things out there.  Weird?  Oh well.

Day 11

Another picture of you and your friends

Since I was writing about my sister earlier, I've decided to do a pic of her and I.  We may not be the bestest friends, but I have hopes that every day we will grow closer.  This was taken just a week ago at my bridal shower.

Isn't she beautiful????



Day 10

Songs you listen to when you are Happy, Sad, Bored, Hyped, Mad

Wow, I can never narrow it down, but here's an idea
 
  •             Happy - Dancing Queen, Abba; I know you want me, Pitbull;
  •             Sad - Smile, from the Glee soundtrack
  •             Bored - I actually listen to podcasts or talk radio when I'm bored, but music wise, I'd say Miranda Lambert
  •            Hyped  - same as happy!
  •            Mad - Eminem





 

Day 9

I cannot keep up!  This weekend I was sicky all weekend and just couldn't get focused on anything.

Day 9 - Something you're proud of in the past few days

My little sister called me yesterday with some issues with her boyfriend.  It's a long drawn out story that I can't even begin to think about right now.  The thing that makes me proud is watching her stand by him.  He may have lied and have may have some serious issues but she's such a giving gal.  She knows his family is crap and is not there for him whatsoever and she said to me, I don't know what I would do without my family being there for me and I'm not going to let him go through that ever.  Once we heard the whole story and the truth, I agree with her.  He is still learning BUT having someone like my sister (and me too!) stand by his side will hopefully lead him in the right directions.

I couldn't be prouder of my little sister.

Day 8

Short term goals for this month and why

Nothing better than this following on the 1st day of the month!  It's exactly 71 days until I get married so all my goals are wedding projects!  Invitations done and out, shower thank you's done and out, floral for the day done, present for my fiance done, lose 10 more pounds, walk in heels again.  I am taking one day off to enjoy opening day baseball for the Toledo Mud Hens!

Whoa, I better get started!

Day 7

A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you

I have two!

My Momma



She is my role model, my best friend and everything I wish to be.  I've watched her overcome some of the hardest times.  I watched her go from being a stay at home mom to running child care centers (and much more).  She is an amazing woman who has always been there for more.  I love my momma so much.


My fiance, Timmy



He changed my life.  I went from a wild woman who was so insecure and couldn't stop partying with the boys to a confident woman, who cares more about her love, family and helping others than anything else.  I never thought I'd want this life, until I met him.  I'd never go back to what I was before - this is it!
