Good-bye My Love...

This year, 2013, I am saying good-bye to one of my loves...and I'm here to share my sadness.

We've been together for many, many years, in good times and in bad. You are always there for me when I want/need you, and you have never let me down. You have the ability to make me feel much better, just by being there for me.

Our love sounds great, right? Why would I leave you if it's so good? Oh, because like many people's loves, you can also hurt me. You're bad for me, actually. No doubt about it. I know it, and so does everyone who knows you. Just like you have the capacity to make me feel good, you have the ability to cause me damage. So for that reason, I've decided to say good-bye.

It's not going to be easy, as you're everywhere I am, and I know I will come across you often. I don't look forward to the awkwardness caused by me ignoring you in front of others, as everyone knows about us. Please don't be upset when this happens. Know that I love you and would reach out for you if I could, it just isn't right.

If we do meet on down the road, it'll only be a brief affair, we can't ever again get as attached as we are now. I'm not opening the door to future flings with you in the near future, at least until the end of the year. Once 2013 is done, then perhaps we will meet again, but if not being with you has me feeling as great as I suspect I will be feeling, then this is for sure the end of us.


Coke, I will miss you greatly. Thanks for the memories!

 Love,
 Me

Telling My Family

So my family's reactions to my pregnancy announcement were very, very interesting. We're not a sappy, emotional family, in fact, they tease me that I'm the most sensitive one of the bunch, so I was definitely not expecting the reactions I received. I actually recorded all of them and enjoy looking back at them from time to time. I won't share in order to respect their privacy, and also because my sister might kill me, but I will definitely enjoy watching them over and over and maybe showing them to my baby one day. So, hubby and I were definitely trying to get pregnant, since February, actually. Then come May/June, I was so sick, I caught back to back colds. I even went to the doctor to see what the heck was wrong with me. She basically said there was nothing she could do, that I had the misfortune of catching consecutive colds and to just drink fluids, take medicine, rest, etc. I missed a few days of work, I just felt so bad. During this time period, we obviously

Telling My Family Pt. II

I decided to tell my sister first. It was a Friday, and I was off because of summer hours and decided to invite her to brunch. While at brunch, I played her the video of me telling my husband. She had a hard time hearing it, but when she finally got the message, she cried tears of joy. I have rarely seen my sister cry as an adult and I was definitely not expecting that reaction, but I was so thankful that I secretly recorded it. My husband couldn't believe she cried either and he says it's his favorite reaction. Next was my brother. I told him and my parents the same day, but told him first. We had gotten together to celebrate my husband, brother's and sister's birthdays, since they are within days of each other. We were having a BBQ at my parent's. So I caught my brother in the garage and played him the video of me telling my sister. He also couldn't hear it (I think my family all needs hearing tests), so I had to explain to him the video with "I&#

2020

 Hi Peanut! You may be asking yourself why I'm writing a post titled 2020 in the middle of 2021, but the last post didn't even begin to explain the nightmare that was last year, so I'll get into that more in this post, before updating for 2021.  So....you may have heard, but 2020 sucked. I don't want to dwell on the negativity of it, but I do want to record it for posterity.  There was a global pandemic due to COVID19. Literal shut down. My job closed and sent everyone to work from home in March. Lots of places shut down. There was no toilet paper or hand sanitizer to be found. Luckily, your mom's crazy, paranoid self, had stocked up on Clorox wipes and sanitizer, because I had already heard rumblings of the disease earlier in the year.  Around this time, I switched jobs, adding further to my stress.  Along with the worries surrounding leaving your house and getting sick, there were other terrible things happening in the world: cases of police brutality against Afri
