St. Croix

I am suffering thru the grooling process of... waiting.

I have an interview via Skype for a stylist position at The Buccaneer Resort in St. Croix VI...

I am not sure if this is a smart move to take .. Everything has to be just right before I take that step and drag my husband out there...

*sigh*

Christmas. With the most wonderful inlaws a gal could ask for.

Across the frigid water lays a sleeping dragon dusted in the season's white dew.
In the morning, you see two, as the water dares not ripple, the mirrored image of God's master piece takes your breath away.
The sound of Christmas music fills the empty corners of the cozy home while the decorations across the house bring decades of memories with each passing step.
From ornaments from Germany to hand made table runners each piece has a story of it's origin.

I love this time of year. So much reflection and serenity.
I miss my family back home, and can remember the smell of Diane baking cookies or the look of the house when you pull up at night... Four feet of snow on the ground and lights from the living room reflecting across the yard...
It's Diane's favorite time of year. She spends all day finding a place for every item she has. All arranged accordingly... There may not be generations of memories at my home, but they're are generations to come with the memories she has made...

I wish I knew where some of the ornaments are that my brother and I grew up with... some of the memories from when Brian and I were little... but I am sure they are packed away in some box to be forgotten... just like many memories from that time....

I remember being so young and pulling out the Christmas tree from the attic while mom was at work, and having it all set up... One year, she worked at Bright World Candle and we had the prettiest Christmas tree on the whole block.. each layer of branches had it's own scene on it... w/ fake snow and people skating ...

I wonder what my children are going to remember....?

Until then, I will take in all the wonderful memories that we are making during this Christmas season....


Merry Christmas to you all... Where ever it may be--- that you all are....

frusterated.

Ever feel like you've made the wrong choice for work?

I was laying in bed last night and couldn't stop thinking, what if I don't want to do this for the rest of my life...

I wonder if I am just being ridiculous and blowing things out of proportion....

But what if this isn't what I want to do.. all that money for school, and I may just thro it all away??

Maybe I just have to find my niche...where I belong???

I hope this is just a temporary mood..

AGGHHH!!! GREATNESS!!

I woke up at 550 am today, made my husband a lunch for work and HIT THE GYM FOR TWO HOURS with Lynnie!

I feel fantastic! ya know, we all ate non-stop this weekend be it that Thanksgiving was amazing!!

and too many pieces of pie on too full of a stomach doesnt help either..

So I am setting a goal this week-- to eat right and PT!! I can do this!

So my weekend was amazing..

So many things to talk about but most importantly..

I got trashed with my sister-in-law..

Which lead to some good bonding i think..

Great conversation all night (from what I can remember)

I probably shared too much, but I have no regrets !!

It's great to get to know her, I am so thankful for the crazy events of that night..

and my wonderful hubby that was our DD :o)

which- I did not return the favor the following night due to being a waist of hung over space, but Libby had his back! (THANX LIBBY! :o) )

I'm just feeling so optimistic about this day and this week!

Lord, give me the strength to stay on track, find my patience and be a loving person to those who love me. I know I have troubles sometime with my actions, but I pray that you will give me the strength and guidance this week to preserver thru the side tracks and stay focused on that tasks at hand!

Thanksgiving...

What a wonderful time to spend with your family.

At dinner dad (Danny's dad) asked us all to share what we were thankful for...

I was the last to share, and knew I would choke up- I was thankful for the choices I have made in life, the people I've met and all the roads I took to have me sitting right here in the home of my husbands parents.. As I teared up, choked up and mumbled thru the rest of my thankfulness I hope the message was properly shown ... I am so thankful for the wonderful job Mike and Mary Sherer did of raising such an incredible man. Who makes me want to be a better person and lights up my life.. The whole family truly is a blessing to be a part of.

I'm very thankful for my family as well. My mother has the biggest heart (sometimes haha) with so much talent. I am very proud of her for making steps in the right direction!

Dad and Diane and Brian all played amazing rolls in my life helping me thru tuff teens and setting me up for success.. If if it wasnt for all 4 of my I wouldn't be able to do half the things in life that I have...

I love you all..

And Happy Thanksgiving!
