Feeling "Screwed"


 

 Oh the joy of being a Houstonian ----

 I recently moved to Kemah and now have a commute to the JFK area near the airport and I love my job, but at the end of the day…is it just me that even though you know that awaiting at home you have either a frozen meal, a home cooked meal or for the health nuts an energized shake full of “stuff” (ingredients I cannot even pronounce) that Jack-N-Box sign like in the alien movies drags you towards the drive through…and next you  know you are purchasing 2 tacos for 99 cents!

 Well dang me for wanting to eat on the go…safer than texting, I am eating on the drive, sloppily letting the taco sauce drip as I maneuver through the traffic and all of a sudden you are cut off by a driver having no intention of respecting your beloved taco devour and now all over your dress…not even a wave to say “Thanks for letting me be an A-Hole and possibly take your life and the loss of your beloved 99 cent taco!”

Driving to work this morning, allowing everyone to pass me as I was going over the speed limit jamming to Foo Fighters I pulled up behind this truck – THE BIGGEST SCREWS I HAVE EVER SEEN…I pulled around it (of course taking a picture before I did --- ***NOTE I DO NOT PROMOTE TAKING PICTURES WHILE DRIVING…BUT COULD NOT RESIST) I moved over to the alternate lane and ALL that were behind me attempting to pass got behind this truck and remained behind him until the beltway unable to pass…I chuckled.

We all seem in life we are screwed in some form…work, relationships, etc…well you are NEVER really screwed until stuck at 40 miles in a 65 mph lane behind this guy…Make it a happy day Ya’ll!!

365 Day Challenge...

 
 

 
It has been way too long…my passion is to write and thankful for a lazy Sunday watching ‘Jules and Julia’ it inspired me to get back into writing.  I started a blog a long while back…kept up with it as Mike was on his journey and even after and slightly drifted off…well I am back…I have too much to say, feel so much and am challenging myself to write daily…no matter the issue…it will continue to be my therapy…
 
Stay tuned and thank you ALL for support through the years…YOU ALL inspire me! XOXOXOXO

Lost Hope…A COMPLETE Myth




Do you ever ponder on the things that we focus on…the UN-important things…The Starbucks that got your coffee wrong (YES even though it is a Hundred dollars a cup)…the irate driver cutting you off (yet they may be rushing to a family member in need or meeting a deadline to impress the boss)…these small things at times give us the feeling that it is the end of the world…we lose hope in humanity, ourselves and all around us at times.
 
I lost my husband to cancer at the age of 33…I NEVER lost HOPE.  I continue to know that I have a purpose as did he while here…we ALL do.  Absorb it all…take chances on someone you never thought you would.  Have NO regrets.  Love your family NO matter how F***ed at times they seem or even you to them.  Know that NO matter the trenches you have crawled, the bridges you have burned, the people you have had to let go in your life to grow…YOU will ALWAYS be you ---- YOU must NEVER lose HOPE in your daily journey ----- OXOXOXOOXOXO
