Scars remain

These last two weeks have been rough on me. Work has been insanely busy in preparation of the upcoming holidays and our lovely end of the year rush. I’m also still feeling the loss of my dearest aunt. It’s only been two weeks and I do know it takes time, it is just particularly difficult for me as I spoke with her daily and that makes her absence undeniable. One never really knows just how large a role a person plays in your life until that person is no with us. I will always carry her in my heart though and in that I must take solace.

Next lifetime

There was no way to know, no way to even begin to guess, what last Sunday and all of this past week would hold for myself and for my family. It is so surreal. What began as just an everyday visit to my grandparent’s house with my mother, turned out to be one of the last times I would see my loving aunt alive. I’m still in shock as to how quickly it came to be. No longer will I be getting daily calls checking to see if I made it safely to where I was going. No more receiving care packages of love just because she was thinking of me.

With each day

Every day that passes, I find myself thankful that all has worked out in the way it has. Sure, perhaps there are things that may not have happened as I would have liked. However, it all has occurred in the fashion that I needed for them to. As the saying goes, you can’t always get what you want, but you get what you need. Good, bad or indifferent, it has been just so. I have lost a lot of not so great things, only to have them replaced by wondrous ones.

Enjoy yourself

Six days and counting until my 37th birthday. Now some would say I’m getting old. What do I say? I say nay. While I am getting older, old is not yet in my vocabulary. I’m still living it up when I can. This past weekend was fantastic. I went to my first convention ever, got to spend time with an old friend and took in an Urban Rebel show which brought the house down. Could it get any better? Yes, yes it can. Urban Rebel is doing it up again on the eve of my birthday and I will be there with an entourage to bring in my born day in style. Read more “Enjoy yourself” →

A thought

Why, hello there.

I’m back. Well, if nothing else, it is at least time for a another post. I’ve been slacking now, haven’t I? Have I mentioned how lately there’s been a shortage of time? That is still the case. It seems like I really only have time on the weekends. During the week I normally come home from work, exhausted. By the time I’ve taken care of the animals, showered, eat dinner and work on my photography, there’s really only a couple of hours left in my day to do anything. The last thing I want to do then is clack away at these keys. It’s not a complaint though, I’m working towards something I’m quite proud of myself for. Read more “Why, hello there.” →

You have been warned

Now that’s one hell of a subject line, isn’t it? It’s only a half-joke really. You see, I haven’t been feeling well as of late. My chest has been achy and my tremors have been so bad that not even taking my medication has been helping. I’m overly anxious lately and I’m needing to make some changes for my health’s sake. Changes that may possibly make me a tad irritable initially. Read more “You have been warned” →

Lazy, yet productive

Good morning, good day, good evening, everyone. I hope this post finds you all well. As per the norm on Memorial day, it is presently raining and so I have decided to take the time and make an entry on my blog while I upload some files on my server. I’ve been working on doing this for the last couple of days, and I think I’ve finally gotten it to work properly. The good news is that I’m learning about FTP along the way. As a backup, I’m also uploading it to a shared folder on Dropbox, just in case. I can’t really go any longer without getting these photos to the Monchichi so they can start working on the album cover. I’m excited to see how it turns out. Read more “Lazy, yet productive” →

Experience teaches as time passes

I’ve been toying with the idea of discontinuing this blog. Yes, I’ve have only had it for a short while, however, I really don’t have much time for it. Verily, between my job and my photography, it’s difficult to find the time more often than not. I haven’t completely decided to end it just yet though. So here is another entry, an update of sorts, as it has been a while since I’ve checked in. What can I say, I’m a busy little queen. Read more “Experience teaches as time passes” →

Comfort awaits

The weekend is almost here! I don’t think I’ve been been this excited to have a weekend with positively no plans whatsoever. To be honest, I’m really looking forward to spending a utterly lazy weekend at home and more than likely in bed. It is going to be wonderful. Finally, a time where I won’t be jealous of my cats for staying home and in bed like the lazy bum in the photo below. Yes, that is my cat/dog who is an absolute pro at being snuggly. Actually, I have three professional bums and a plan on joining them in the comfort of my wonderful bed. Of course, the lazy will not be complete without my wolf and you can bet he will be joining in on the comfortpallooza. Read more “Comfort awaits” →

What a day

With all the journal type posts I’ve been writing lately, I wonder some times. Do people actually give a crap what’s going on in a complete stranger’s life, or is it purely for entertainment value? It’s more than likely the latter, however, it really does not matter the reasons why some read my entries. I post what I post to share some of my experiences and the lessons I’ve learned along this journey because there is always the possibility my experiences helping one of my readers out. I believe one should not be greedy with knowledge and life is a lesson to be learned. Read more “What a day” →
