remember to be happy

Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.

I don't think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains.

Oh, my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts - it's what you do with what you have left.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

Juny....today and always.

Today marks the third year I have, we have, had to live without my dear friend, Juny.  The years pass, but the pain of his loss never fades.  Missing you always, Juny.

Justice for Juny

And two years ago today, another sweet and bright spirit went away...thinking of you today as well, Cheryl. 

I guess by now I should know enough about loss to realize that 

you never really stop missing someone-you just learn to live around 

the huge gaping hole of their absence.

oh the dreams....they never stop....neither do birthdays!

I haven't posted on this is a while.  HECK, I haven't posted on jack diddly in a while, so.....there's that.  But these dreams of mine.  Oh, these dreams of mine.....Ugh, they wear me the eff out.  Non stop dreaming all night long.  Still.  Still.

While the dreams are now less violent, they are all still pretty intense.  The other night I had a dream I hid some money I needed.  In some trees.  Like, tree tops...of tall ass pine trees.  And then I went flying to look for the money.  Because I am now a fairy that can fly.  In a snow/rain storm.  Yes, I am strange.  I do recognize this.  Thankyouverymuch.

Snow 
To see snow in your dream signifies that you are feeling indifferent, alone and neglected. If the snow is melting, then it suggests that you are acknowledging and releasing emotions you have repressed. You are overcoming your fears and obstacles.

To dream that you are watching the snow fall represents a clean start and a fresh, new perspective.  It is indicative of spiritual peace and tranquility.

To dream that you find something in the snow suggests that you are exploring and accessing your unused potential, abilities, and talents. You have uncovered some hidden talent and ability within yourself. It may also refers to a need to forgive.

Snowdrop 
To see snowdrops in your dream symbolize rebirth, hope, and new opportunities after a period of inactivity. You are emerging from a time of darkness with a fresh attitude.

Money

To dream that you lose money suggests that you are lacking ambition, power and self-esteem. You are experiencing unhappiness and setbacks in your waking life. You may also be feeling weak, vulnerable, and out of control in your waking life...

Makeup 
To dream about makeup indicates that you are putting on your best face forward. You are trying to enhance your self-image and increase your sense of self-confidence.  The dream may also be a metaphor that you need to "make up" with someone. It is time to forgive and forget.

Jewelry 
To see jewelry in your dream signifies status and your own sense of self worth and personal value. It is also symbolic of knowledge, identity, or whatever qualities you hold precious in your life.

So yeah.  Rock on!!!  I am seeing the light at the end of this dark, dark tunnel of a year.  But don't ask about work.  Because honestly, it down right sucks right about now!!!  But I am guessing that the above repeating words of forgiving....plays in here.

I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're goin', and hook up with them later.

At least my ray of sunshine, Layla, is doing fabulous in Kinder, so that makes this momma's inner turmoil just a tad bit smaller.

And very importantly...today is my boo, my baby daddy, my lovah mans birthday.  So, we are going out to celebrate!  I hope this year and every year are the best for you.  I love you.

I hope you all have a glorious, beautiful and enjoyable weekend!

Kindergarten - Picture Day!

I think she will be a cutie in her Kinder Year Book Picture....what say ye!?!

deja vu...checking on Layla's lil ticker again...

In October 2010, this was Layla...

In September 2012, this was Layla...

She has not outgrown what the doctor would have hoped she would have outgrown at this point.  She wore a 24 hour holter monitor yesterday and today.  We are gonna see what that shows.

Love and light and prayers requested.  

my blog is turning into an ecard blog! sorry.

it's all I have time for right now...and they sum it all up so perfectly.

it's what me and my BFF and co-worker are planning tonight!  Some relief is in sight...

too busy...too busy, indeed!

Happy Friday, b*tches!!!!

my insight I needed for the day

Only you can move you, 

only you can feel you, 

only you can live you 

and only you can change you. 

It is when you lose sight of this reality that you feel lost and hopeless. By saying I can't do this anymore, you give up responsibility, and when you don't accept responsibility, you find yourself at the mercy of the world around you. The truth is that you CAN change and it all begins with the next decision that you make. 

Choose wisely today because it is YOU who controls your destiny. 

{WORD!!!!}
