(insert evil dark laugh here)

Uh oh. I laugh at dead kitties. Am I demented? Is there some damaged part of me? Or am I just a dark form of awesome. I really did like Mops the cat. I also liked the image of a kitty, flying through the air, who thought she was going to a better place by seeing that limo sun roof. Little did she know. Silly kitty. Tee hee.

who will help mother hen?... "not I said the cat"

You are the reason I can enjoy the sun. You make the beauty in this world worth while. Without your radiance, the flowers wouldn't be so sweet. The blossoms out the window wouldn't matter....because... 

When you are in a picture every aspect becomes brighter.
You make our house a home, with you in it, the air is lighter.
You raised a flock of crazies and we love you for our looney!
Without your loving laughter, our lives would be so gloomy!

Margaret Anne, you are a star. You light up and glow.
You are my guiding light on earth, more than you will ever know!
Never doubt, never second guess your worth.
'Cause mama, I don't wanna curse!

I love you M.A.C.

Irony can be cruel..

How do I put this down. How do I allow myself to type myself into vulnerability?

You opened the way when I thought there was none; A room with no escape, no windows, no doors. Feelings, dormant, awakened by a smile and those eyes. Everything else slipped away, my tongue loosed and I spoke of things I had kept silent. I felt safe.

Like many a thing, I have made the wrong move. It seems now, I can't make it back to where it was headed. Some say I'm in love.Well, I don't know about that. What I do know catches me off guard, the thought of you is there when I ought to be thinking of anything but you. You are a constant, an unshakeable allure. Oh to be in those beautiful arms and hearing that smooth voice simply... speak.

I must let you go. Let go of what I never had. Wishing what plays in my head was what I could wake up to.

Ooh...I got da' fever!

I have had a fever on only three occasions over the years. Saturday night, I was visited by that third wave of fever. Although I considered the possibility of my body trying to match my outer "hotness" with some good ole' fashioned fever, I came to conclude, I was in fact sick. My fever has broken but alas, I still suffer with swollen lymph nodes, sore throat, headache, and the sadness that I couldn't go to work today.

I suppose I hadn't realized how much I had come to genuinely care about what I do for a living, until recently. It spans beyond just a job, I feel like what I do each shift makes a difference. (Oh.. I feel a plug for my work coming on.)
Okay, If anyone out there is pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or have any other procedure done requiring a choice of hospital; look no further than LDS hospital. I may be bias, but I can guarantee that you will be cared for beyond your expectations. We are constantly striving to meet and exceed the needs and wants of our patients and guests. On my unit, west -4 maternity, we are like a family and our patients are like adopted members. You will not find a more dedicated team to help you with your new baby!

Alright, that was fun. I really do enjoy my job, and today, I do believe, I officially decided I am going to do all I can to go back to school to be an RN in the fall! Wish me luck, and may my A's be bountiful!

Oh my aching Madonna!

I feel the burn! Yesterday was spent dancing my pretty little unpracticed legs off and ending my day with Madonna in tow. All in all, a good day. Today, so far, I have to say that all I can think is " kick left right left kick...chicken!" and of course "..ooh.. you got to... let your body, move to the music." So naturally, I suppose my subconscious is trying to tell me to, umm, move my chicken body to the music, yes, that sounds right.

Now, to explain why I am "kicking" and doing the "chicken". I, along with my wonderful friends Sam Lilly, Aaron Ross and my new friend Kami Barnes, are cast members of the musical Footloose (directed by Sue Wilhelm) playing at the Terrace Plaza Playhouse in Ogden. It plays June 11th -July 23rd every Monday, Friday, and Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. now isn't that just super!

I am hoping my muscles will stop their aching sometime soon, you'd think they would be reasonable after all. Maybe I could bribe them with the prospect of weight loss...

Return to life's stage

It is truly amazing how a person can be blinded. I almost remarried my ex- husband. I came to my senses about what I need in my life, and we parted ways for good. I am currently looking to be single, truly single without expectation for the first time in my life since I was 13.. literally. It took me coming to grips with some deep seated realities to be okay with it. Now I am ready to go with life's currents to whichever shores I may land. This is a good feeling, freedom.
