I used this one on the 16th, but it's appropriate for today anyway...

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow. by Mary Anne Radmacher

So, I'm feeling better today. Thank you all for all the messages and support. It reminds me of why I joined. I've never been part of...

Well, another thing to add to me day...

I just got the email telling me that my photo set was declined for MR.
But I guess it means you all get to enjoy it sooner, in my photo folder... frown

Kids are awesome like that
kikibabe:
Hey, you took the risk. It didn't pan out, but you put yourself out there. Kudos to you for that! You're braver than I am in that respect. smile

So today is just one of those days.

I got a call to tell me we're not going to be able to see the house this Sunday. The people who are renting the house aren't answering the phone when people are trying to set up us going to see it. I mean, I can understand, but it still sucks. The house has been for sale...

frown I've been struggling with minor social anxiety for my whole life. It's really dependent on the situation for me. But I can only imagine what you're going through with all that! frown The best thing to do is just get out there and confront the anxieties.

I'm sorry about your bad day dear, and about your husband... you should go out and do something for yourself. Buy yourself a cute outfit or some ice cream. Maybe go to a spa, or something.

And say, fuck everything else smile

Happy 4/20

So, I did a whole whopping NOTHING today! LOL!
Of course it was 4/20 today, so I expected to do nothing. Plus, with it being the first full day of my child-free time...
Oh, what did I do? I played with photoshop some... I played a game on addictinggames.com... Watched WWE Raw, CSI, NCIS, and a few other shows...

OH! I was acted...

What a lovely photo!

I think you may be at a loss for what to do with no kids. Give it a few days and I'm sure you'll think of lots to do.

Sounds like an awesome 420!

I adore simple pleasures. They are the last refuge of the complex.

Kali is now safely in Guatemala. Got a call from her yesterday, and she's down there and having fun. Lily will be going to my mom's house tomorrow evening. Which means my official "child-free" week will be starting. WHOOOOHOOOO!

Of course that means that I...

Allright, a week of raising hell and getting naked for the camera. wink

The traveler was active; he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes "sight-seeing." ~Daniel J. Boorstin

According to the itinerary, Kali got to Honduras at 11:05 this morning, and traveled from there to Guatemala by now I'm sure. When she was saying goodbye last night, (spent the night...

Have a nice weekend! You should party hearty while you are temporarily childless. And relax...I'm sure they will both be fine and have a *great* time.

My weekend started with hanging with some friend tonight over tea. Tomorrow is hanging with the parents/doing laundry. Sunday is all about relaxing.

Have a great weekend.

After looking back at my old posts, and seeing what I was doing 2 years ago with my blog, I think I'm going to start some of it again. The two I think I will start with, are the quotes of inspiration and the general questions to the masses (or the few at this point. LOL)...

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet...

There's a lot of places I'd like to go, but if I had to pick just one I think it would be Ireland. I've always been super stoked about having a bit of Irish in me, and I've always wanted to go back and visit the land of my forefathers.
bittersweetdream:
I've been really enjoying your inspirational quotes!!!

And me - dang... I can't decided between Ireland and Japan.

I'm up still. I just can't sleep, and I have to take one of my daughters to a Dr's appt tomorrow (well THIS) morning.

But I just found my old account, ImaSailorGirl, hehehe... Found a poem I wrote while I was living aboard:
Diesel Covered Daydreams

Delusional, diesel smelling, and soot covered moment. Wondering why. Landlocked cabin fever taking hold....

~ So I read the whole sailblog. So did you ever hear of the book "The Boat That Wouldn't Float" by Farley Mowat... The one September entry was very suprising and sad. What led up to that, what was the last straw, and where were you? And then how did you sell the boat?
ARRR!!!
