30 Something Enjoy's This...

It's Friday night and I'm at home ... HAPPILY! Yes, Finn is asleep (finally) and Hupthsy (Nickname for Husband) and I have just enjoyed a dinner of grilled half chickens with peas and basmati rice plus a side of grilled corn on the cob AND of course two tall (each) freshly made margaritas, hey it was 95 degrees today! Hence the reason for my run on sentences and babbling. But Hupthsy made it all and it was so delectable, I swear the chicken had bacon wrapped around it while it was cooking to perfection in the smoky grill outside. What more could I want for a Friday night? Dancing in a sparkly top and tight jeans while strangers buy me drinks and sweat while looking at me like jackals? NO! The night was OR is perfect wouldn't change it or trade it for anything. Am I old? Who cares! I don't if it means I had a great Friday night. What next? Cuddling on the couch and flipping through channels or watching a Netflix. But who knows it's only 8:30 and we probably won't go to bed until 10:30 or 11:00 pm ... LOL! Then it's up at 6:30 to 7:00 am when Finn gets up! I LOVE BEING A MOM!

And then there was Finn...

What is with me and all this Biblical speech patterns. I think I'm being influenced by the book I'm reading, Lamb by Christopher Moore. It's for book club, I would have never picked it because of my Christian upbringing, I'm over reading about Christ and feeling guilty about it. However this book is nothing like that, it takes the perspective of Jesus' life before he was baptized, when he was young. It brings comedy and light to a familiar character, the son of God. Now where was I before my rant, ah yes the boy wonder in my life, Finn. It does one good to wake every morning and after feeding this squaking sleepyhead of a person find the pure delight of just being alive in his face. How wonderful to wake with the wonder and awe of a new day, such a happy boy. To be able to make one person light up the way he does when I smile at him makes all the drudgery of being pregnant and day to day of a mom worth it. I've been heeding the counsel of my intuit Joy. She was ...

What A Beautiful Wreck

Ha! I thought last year was a tough year. This year has been one blow after another. First the house, which maybe we'll have something to actually celebrate as moving on when it's supposed to close it's short sale next week. Then my Mom dying, then Bob my step-father-in-law dying, then Rick having a heart attack, then alcohol issues. Corey and I still are on a rotating work schedule both of us part-time so we hardly get to see each other and when we do it's taking care of daily life. I want to stop this survival mode! I need forward momentum with our business, our life. I desperately need an upswing. I've never felt so emotionally unstable in my life for such a long period of time. At least with my divorce seven years ago the emotional bottom was brief and I was able to start crawling out of the hole after a few months. This, now ... just feels like it's been going on for ages. I despise that it is taking away from the joy of experiencing my son growing up. I...

Older, wiser and not much of a blogger

Too busy is my MO. Despite trying to change it I end up saying it to myself and others far too often. This is why I don't blog, this is why I don't do a lot of things. I also find myself asking why would I write when I could paint or dance. So I've neglected this blog, among other things. I also realize I prefer art journaling to banging keys to form poorly constructed sentences. In looking back at my blog I found my 'musings' very depressive and desperate. Although I understand the time frame in which they were written and the place I found myself at that time was depressive and desperate. I am no longer in that place. It took some time in a new town, in a new state for my family and I to dig ourselves out of our hole of desperation. I also think it took a whole lot of being too busy to be with my thoughts to keep myself from diving into the depression. Depression is a tricky thing you never see it coming and once its there you wonder how you got into it. I wen...
