TMT: Blowing Kisses

Blowing Kisses

I originally posted the Blowing Kisses photo over a month ago with great intentions of closing a chapter of my life and starting a new page. The funny thing is, I became paralyzed with paranoia and couldn’t publicly say it.

For those that aren’t aware, I have recently divorced. Although I knew my relationship had deteriorated and I started making the necessary transitional changes in advance, I suppose I underestimated the roller coaster of events that were still to come after I started my new life.

Obviously, I became very quiet during the divorce. The thing is, I expected myself to return to “normal” immediately after it was final and that just didn’t happen. When everything is completely different from where you live to the number of people in your household, how can you honestly be “normal” again? Who was I fooling? Who was I in the past and who am I going to become? Then the paranoia problem continued to plague me. Would the ex-hubby be reading what I say?

After completely disappearing from all my online friends and scaring the poop out of a few of them, I had a really open phone conversation with my good friend Kelly McCausey. Sometimes just spewing your silly fears out loud to someone else is the best way to come to your senses. The next morning I knew that it didn’t matter if the ex-hubby wants to read what I say. It’s time to stop holding myself hostage.

It’s time to kiss my old life goodbye and say hello to the new beginnings that are in store for me. Goodbye old life. Goodbye.

TMT: Forked!

Forked

This photo was taken at the Jefferson Hotel in Jefferson, Texas on November 1st, 2008. The hotel is supposedly haunted. I had a blast taking photos in the dark and recording myself and two friends asking questions of any spirits that may be nearby. I felt certain that I could pass as a professional ghost hunter!

I’m really not sure why the forks were out in the courtyard, but it was intriguing to say the least. We walked past this area around 11 P.M. to get something to eat and have a few drinks and I don’t remember seeing them at that time. It was a bit after midnight when we returned to the hotel and first noticed them. I made several fork jokes and giggled all the way back to my room (Room #2).

Unfortunately, I forgot my camera that night. I totally wanted to kick myself the next morning when I went back to take photos. Who knows what I might have caught on camera in the dark on Halloween? Maybe a couple hundred ghosts eating dinner? ;-)

I Forked Up Again

So today I was supposed to tell you about my Wordless Wednesday . Now I’m two stories in the hole and months behind on saying anything on this blog at all. Ooops.

I think this fork photo should just become my new personal brand. When you see forks from now on, think of me! I just keep forking around all the time. I need to try a different fork in the road or something…

It is my intention to post TWICE tomorrow. Yeah, you heard me. I vow to tell both stories tomorrow and ping them over at Tell Me Thursday. Then maybe I can help my sweet friend Annette Yen revive that project that I abandoned her on and left her holding the bag. (I suck!)

Anyhooo… get yer readin’ glasses ready cuz I’m gonna have some tall tales fer ya on Friday. =D

When Kids Plan Mom’s Party

This one is surely self explanatory…

My two youngest called my mother and planned me a surprise birthday party this year. All I had to do was have the kitchen ready to be surprised. ;-)

Anyway, how closely did you check out the cake my stepdad picked up for me? Yeah, I’m ___ years old and it’s my very first Barbie cake! Woo hoo!

Can you guess by the candles how old I am? :-)
