A new leaf

The end of a relationship is always hard.  But with the help of some friends and especially my family I am going to be fine.

I'm finally realizing that this relationship had been toxic to me and I need to focus on myself.  I need to move forward, and handle life independently, without having to cater to someone else's dreams first.  I need to work on bettering myself, making my dreams happen, and being the best that I can be, without having someone to stress about.


For future I have learned what will not mesh, and while A was a great person, he was not the person for me.   There is someone out there who will be all the things I need, and when the time is right they will pop up.  Until then, it's me and Bella against the world, and you know what- We are going to be okay.  There will be tough days but it's time to move forward and take care of me.

Adventures from Casa de la Awesome...

My family is crazy.  Is there a word that is Crazier than Crazy?  Because that's what they are.

So last week I went over to my Mom's house, fittingly called Casa de la Awesome (awww helll yeahhh), and my sister G decided that she wanted to take the cat for a walk.  Yes- I said cat.  And the sad thing is, this is not the first time he's gone for a walk, nor does he seem to mind too much.  Except that when I was there he was embarrassed because Bella my puppy was there.  Or such is the reason G claims he was being a total brat.

So then we went on a hike for Calle's class.  Oh that was an adventure.  Calle hates hiking, so that was a fun filled day.   We had to find plants for her science class to document.  That was an adventure with Mom and I stoping at every plant to say "I think that is on the list!"  Wow that was a mess. So we trudged through the ravine to Sycamore Canyon and may or may not have gotten lost.  Overall though it was a great adventure, with Calle complaining, G acting like a Disneyland tour guide and Cam doing squats to tone her thighs.  And let's not forget mom and her 'moses stick'.  She may have hit a few of us with it... accidentally?  I think not.  Coincidentally, that Moses Stick is now sitting in the dining room, and the girls have decorated it.   If one is going to have a Moses stick, they should have a stylish one, right?
