It's My SITS Day!
What is SITS? It's a group of 10,000 women bloggers supporting one another with lots and lots of comment love. And today I'm being featured. Yes, me!...Little ol' me!
If this is your first time here, welcome and thank you so much for stopping by!
I began this blog back in March of 2010, completely on a whim. I had no idea what I was doing or if anyone would ever really read my words but I just kept hearing a whisper from God telling me to share my story of loss, battle with grief, journey in healing, and rebuilding of life.
And although I do still blog about my experience with that horrible monster of grief from time to time, this has mostly become a place for me to just be me and to share the moments that make life beautiful, messy, frustrating, or just downright hilarious.
I should tell you right up front that I talk about my adopted wiener dogs a little too much, have been known to cry over the death of a fish, say y'all more than I probably should and definitely overuse the ellipsis [...]. I can't help it. It's just who I am...
Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful day! :)

I suppose you could say
I'm sentimental and sappy
But my nature and my spirit
are always drawn to happy
I know that life can be hard
and is almost never fair
But laughter's a great healer...
By that one, I will swear
Laughter, plus an outlet...
The thing that makes you tick
You know it when you find it
For me, it was hearing the keys click
The thoughts, the feelings, the pain
that seemed to free me as they came,
appearing as tangible...as real
as the letters in my name
Everyone has a story inside them...
This is where I share mine
And y'all are more than welcome to join me
as I dot dot dot every other line!
Thanks for visiting and have a wonderful day! :)

Friday Fragments
~Dracen said he wanted a pair of cowboy boots for Christmas. I said, "I wonder what size you'd need in cowboy boots"? He replied, "Santa will know...If he's really magic."
~He also wanted to know why the foster child I picked the angel off the angel tree to buy a gift for didn't get stuff from Santa. I tried to think of a good answer but I mostly stumbled around my words.
~I bought the big size jar of Nutella yesterday at the grocery store. Seriously? I need an intervention!
~We are going to see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra tomorrow in Greenville, SC. I'm excited since I've never seen them before!
~Does anyone know where I can buy a trash can for my kitchen that is Dachshund proof? Because Brisco Darling can't seem to keep his nose out of the one I've got! He knocked it over again twice yesterday. I also caught him digging at the end of the house after he pawed the plastic drain pipe apart from the gutters. He apparently doesn't believe the elves are watching.
~Devin had somehow managed to break his big binder for school in half and had been carrying it around like that, with no cover. I finally remembered to buy him a new one this week and he didn't want it. I had to force him to put his stuff in it. Then a girl at school took a pink paint maker and wrote his name in ginormous letters across the front with the little breast cancer awareness ribbon at the bottom (which I thought was a nice touch). He said, "I need a new binder! I cannot carry this thing around like this! " I told him to either get over it or get creative and cover it up somehow.
~Dracen made a little drawing at school of these little houses with faces on them and called it "The People House Town." Charlie and I thought it was really creative and said he should take it further and submit it to Disney or Nickelodeon because it's a lot better than some of that stuff they put on t.v. Charlie continued to encourage him, telling him how if it was a hit, he could eventually sell it to them for big bucks. He said he would never do that. Spoken like a true artist! "Never sell out out to the man!"
~I'm getting my "hair did" at 8:30 this morning so I must sign off!
Happy Friday, Y'all! :)
