Life As It Is

I have wrote and deleted and wrote and deleted. It has been a while but I have been on my grind for work, school and cultivating a new relationship. Kind of in my feelings today. Not sure why. Loving my job, in a good place mentally, kind of stagnant physically but that is an ongoing process but all in all life as it is- is good.

I am scared of the feelings. I am scared of falling off of the ledge again and being hurt. But the journey is so worth it. Falling in love is what life is about whether it is falling in love with a person or your lifes passion. Love is worth every text message, every argument, every fear, every laugh. I am in this new place and it is scary for me. I know what it is like to be in love and it be unrequited- but I have no clue what its like to be loved and be in love at the same time. It is new territory for me and the LOVE word- let me not. I am so afraid to use that loosely. His question to me- are you happy?


I am so for now I will enjoy the journey and try to be as regular as possible. But for anyone who knows me... Extra is who I am- I am an EXTRAordinary person.

Until then I am stuck in my head symbolically playing he loves me he loves me not. BTW I played this unrelentingly during my early years with the plethora of dandelions that grew in our neighbors yard.

I love me....guess thats all that matters for now. Life as it is- is good.


Stay tuned for Grand Canyon reviews and the Carnival Freedom Cruise taken with the family.

Cruise marked off of to do list. Next is Dubai and Cuba.

In search of magic

She told me something was missing. Not a spark or a twinkle Not a light or a star Not a fire or an ember My magic was missing. The very thing that allowed me to create the me I wanted to be, had long gone missing He took it, I said, and I want it back! I want it all back. Slowly she felt it returning- but she had to figure how to use it again. Never again would she let someone steal her magic. Never again would she freely give of her magic. Never again would she take for granted the magic that was given to her as her prized possession. And when she said it- she felt it- the magic she once knew had returned and oh how it had grew. It was undeniable, unimaginable- she realized that the magic was her, she had never left- she had only forgotten due to his curse. She realized what she had forgotten; she had placed her magic safely on a shelf far, far away from what she called her heart. Hidden from all others, even herself- because she was too weak to control it ...

Where has time gone....

It is almost 2018 already and I have yet to post my last few trips but tonight I didn't want to talk about my trips, my goals, or any of that. I just want to share my candid thoughts. As I reflect on the last year, I am saying to myself- I never imagined I could be this happy in a relationship, this satisfied in life, this comfortable with my own thoughts. I am thankful for my family and the new friends he has placed in my life. I was challenged with change this year and now it's about to be 2018.... I guess what I want to say is accept the changes that life has for you. Enjoy moments, laugh, cry, be comfortable in your in skin and if your not be confident in your decision to change it. There is so much you all don't know that I don't have time to share tonight but given my new take on life blogging is back, books are back, wine never left and bae is good. I'm just really happy to be happy right now.

Falling in LOVE

In life, you have to take the pace that love goes. You don't force it. You just don't force love, you don't force falling in love, you don't force being in love - you just become. I don't know how to say that in English, but you just feel it. Juan Pablo Galavis Life is never what you expect it to be. I caught myself this week being the girl I always have been, the hopeless romantic..... Just how hopeless am I? A Walk to Remember, I cry the entire movie- not because she dies- beacause he loves her UNCONDITIONALLY. I cry so hard I get a headache. I digress.  What happened? I had a bad day and I needed a drink, an outlet of some kind. Of course on these type of days none of my friends are ever available. Usually, I just curl up, cry it out, drink wine and eat pizza.  Not this day, I went to Marianos and had a drink by myself and cried a bit lol. Drinks were good and should have been for 11buck a pop! But then, he, my prince charming came to my aid.  He had so man...
