Return to reality....

I can't believe I actually went on a cruise!!!! It was wonderful....the BEST time I have ever had!!! I will definitely do this again....and take the boys next time. I did not get seasick at all, even with rough seas Monday and Friday nights. I am trying to figure out how to add some pics here....I will try again tomorrow night.

And they call it Puppy Love.......

I had to add the video of Donny. I originally saw it on Dawn's blog and loved it.

2 more days till cruise......

It is 8:20pm, laundry is going, and we are waiting on pizza to be delivered. I got my hair cut and colored last night...I love the new color, but Nancy said to "Never buy that color again girlfriend"....LOL! It is Ultra Light Golden Brown by L'oreal....and I love it. But I guess the sun may not treat it well next week. We shall see.

This morning, me and Mama went to get a pedicure and manicure. Then I went over to Tack's house (my ex sister in law....we are going on the cruise together), and she put artwork on my nails....a quarter moon and star on my left big toe, an abstract design on my right big toe....a smaller quarter moon and star on left middle finger, and 3 rhinestones with silver strands on right ring finger.....all in silver to match my jewelry. It is all beautiful.....on top of Scarlet Gold polish.

In the morning, Pop is getting baptized and we will all be there to see. His daughter Carol and her husband, my brother Jeff and his family, me and the boys, and my mom. Afterward, I will come home and pack......I am so excited I can't stand myself!!! This morning, I wanted to call Kay very badly....she was on her way to Myrtle Beach to spend a week with all her family....but I refrained. Didn't want to charge her roaming charges...LOL! We will talk when we both return next weekend. I guess this is it for now......

Only 2 more days......

TILL MY CRUISE!!!! I am so excited I can hardly sit still....LOL! I am getting ready to leave for a haircut and color....then Logan and I are going to get some supper. Tomorrow I will do some laundry and start packing. Better go for now tho.....I'll try to add more later.

A Fitting Quote

"No man is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry. " This was sent to me by my best friend Kay. I think I will write this on a post it note and put it on my make up mirror so I see it every morning....what do you think?

Post for 09/02/07

Ok....I am an idiot. Once again, I fell for someone who was not good enough. He said a lot of the right things, but at least this time I was praying and paying attention to details. He had some ugly things to say about my pastor....and I don't know why. He knew he was my pastor when he said it. Just seems mean. Then, I got stood up Friday night. No call, no nothing. I left him a couple of messages, because I was worried, but I have not heard anything since. I have NEVER been stood up in my life! And I turned 48 yesterday!!!

Oh well....live and learn. Life goes on.

Speaking of birthdays, I had a great one yesterday. My best friend Kay came and took me to lunch. Then we went to her house so I could try on some clothes for my cruise. She gave me a 2 disc dvd of Elvis! Then when we got back to my house, the boys gave me an Elvis CD! So I had an Elvis birthday! It was great! After church last night, Tack and Don took me to eat at Ryan's. They brought out cake and sang Happy Birthday! You know me, I LOVE stuff like that! All in all, a great 48th birthday.

Why do I feel the need for a man?

I wish I knew. Needless to say, Terry did not last. Everything was going great, until last weekend. We had plans Friday night for my birthday. The boys spent the night with my parents, and he NEVER showed up. We talked briefly on the computer after work, but he NEVER showed up. He sent an email Saturday afternoon stating he FELL ASLEEP AT WORK....knew he had screwed up...felt like CRAWLING IN A CORNER AND CRYING. I did not know what to think, and kept waiting for him to call. He NEVER did. Then Tuesday afternoon, 5 DAYS LATER, he sends an IM saying HELLO beautiful lady!---like nothing was wrong. Turns out, he also went to Statesboro after work Saturday and did not return till Monday night at midnight. Claims he FORGOT his phone (and apparently there are no phones in Statesboro). I believe he met someone else, or got back with whoever he was seeing before me. Just seems too screwy, too planned. And he gave up very easily for someone who was supposed to love me. "Good riddance to bad rubbish" as they say. My son told me, "Mom, he doesn't know how to treat a lady, does he?" I guess he didn't......I feel like crying.....
