The big 3-0

Thursday marks my 30th year on this great big world we call Earth.  Hard to believe I will be 30... I pictured myself in a very different spot in my life.  A spot where I was happily married, 2 kids, couple pet...you know the american dream.  Sadly I am not.  But I will not look poorly upon it, for God has to have a great plan in store for me!!

Found out also my dearest friend Melissa will be leaving here and be taking her family to Utah.  Her dad was in an accident and has irreversible brain damage.  She's going to take care of him.  She's going for a very important reason, makes us both sad none-the-less.  We've been lucky in our friendship..never had any major fights, blowouts, strains.  But I guess this is our test, to see if we as friends will make it work.  I believe it will.  I have never had a friend that I could talk to, trust as much as and as quickly as I did her.  But then again, Joey did choose her, I think that might have had something to do with it.

We spent all of Sunday just talking.  Talking about her move, talking about how sad we were to be parting ways, important things, inane things and all things between. It was a first for both of us, to hang out without her wonderful little ones running around.  Oh how I will miss her and the family!

Also tonight, as I was dropping of Roberta after we went grocery shopping, I noticed something on my car... red paint on my read right tire.  Then I notice the spatter along the whole bottom on that side of the car.. FML.. that just sucked...Looks like with a stiff brush and soapy water, should come off...I hope....

Tomorrow night I will be celebrating with my mom and Roberta and hopefully Melissa will be joining us!  Here's to a new day and my last day at 29...  Here's to 30 and what the possibilities it will bring me!!!

wowee wow wow

Well much has happened in the last month, hence no recent blogs. 

First off on a bit of a high note.  Started hanging out with a new guy.  Not sure what we are yet, but I do enjoy spending time with him, he makes me laugh.  I really like him (yeah high school-clichey here but its how I feel..) and I get the impression he feels very similar.  Just afraid to ask.  Lately I haven't had a good track record with men.. (Justin comes to mind....loser.)  I really enjoy spending time with him and just hanging out with him.  I'd love to spend more time with him and him living here in my hometown makes it easy when we do.  Who knows, just got to let God work in His mysterious ways and be patient (tho its never been an easy virtue for me to deal with, being rather impatient when its something I really, REALLY want).

Secondly, my father is currently still recovering from his bout with double pnuemonia.  Yes, double.  He'd fallen and while recovering at home, he'd slept, flat on his back, for 48 hours.  Fluid built up, breathing became very shallow.  Thankfully my wonderful aunt, she called and got him to the hospital in time.  I will love her forever for this.  He was very close to dying.  I don't know what I'd do if he had...I really don't want to... On a good note tho is that my sister and neice are coming down to visit us! I can hardly wait to see them!!  I wish she lived closer so I could spoil!! 

Good note, my dear friend Jackie and I are going to town to go to the movies.  We plan on seeing The Hunger Games.  I've read all three books in the series before of the inkling of a movie.  Now that that has happened, I'm excited to see how it compares since the author of the books actually co-wrote the screenplan and chose the actress that plays Katniss.  Yay! So excited for Monday!!!
