These are a few...

You guessed it right...favorite things! i have been MIA in the blog world for a while...sorry. miss me much? i have been wondering what to post about lately and some days it is just hard, well, maybe just too personal to post. so i have decided to begin to post/list a few of my favorite things. the list will go on and on as new things become a favorite and others not so much anymore.

Favorite Things: books, my computer, mac and cheese, sweet tea, and of course my lovely Joshua!
Dislike: roaches!

Quirky ole Me...

not too much to say today :( on that note however, my do i have a lot of little quirks. i guess that just makes me unique. i just adore the single serve drink packets from crystal light or any sugar free brand really. i went through my purse and found a bunch! looks like i will be drinking more H2O after all :) also, it is amazing what one can find when one cleans out their purse...for you guys i guess it would be cleaning out your wallet, emptying your pockets or better yet... cleaning out your car. i love purses of any kind and i am currently on the hunt for a new one...on sale of course! i also love the Dollar Tree! so many little cute nick-nacks to buy, but i have self control and just look and only buy what is needed :) GO ME!!!

last 2010 post!

well, 2010 is almost at an end. it has been a good year. could things have been better, sure, but i am alive and that is what counts. the holidays are always fun, and i just ADORE cooking. i have been cooking up a storm. lots have happened in 2010; many life lessons have been learned and i have fallen flat on my face, but i have gotten up, cleaned up, and seem to be on the right track. i met my love in the year 2010 and that part of my life is terrific and is only getting better. he is so patient, gentle, and kind with me. school is great and it is nice to see good grades again and to understand what i am being taught also. i am hoping and know that 2011 will be great and offer me many more life lessons that will continue to allow me to grow.
**main goals for 2011--keep off my weight loss, continue to do well and finish my degree, see my love more often, and of course...move back out and begin being independent once again! Happy New Year Bloggers!

will my prayer be answered?

post from 2010: i promise, one of these days i will have a glowing blog to share and not doom and gloom. i am blessed to be alive and i am doing really well in school this time around. i just wish my parents would accept the person i choose to love and want to spend my life with. i pray that one day they will. i want them present for my happy moment which should be theirs too. i have decided to go ahead with it either way, it is my happiness and my future and i know and hope there is at least one person on my side of the family that will support us. i have to and still am waiting to see what it in store in regards to everything. we are still going strong. a special thank you to all who have and still do love and support me, it means more than i can ever thank you all for!

2013 update: we are still together 3+ years! wahoo! parents still have their view even though i am almost 30 :(  but...what would you do? forgo the parental blessing and marry who you love or fall into the trap that it will not work? hmmm?
