So for as much as I expected this Christmas to be really difficult and not so great, it turned into a FABULOUS Christmas. I really didn't ask anyone for anything, b/c Christmas kind of snuck up on me...it didn't feel like Christmas was here, then when everything hit the proverbial fan, time started flying by even faster. Mom and I didn't even feel like it was Christmas Eve on Christmas Eve. We had all the decorations up, all the presents wrapped, everything to make Christmas dinner, but it didn't feel like Christmas at all. But Christmas morning was amazing. We had such a great time with mom, my brother Jeremy and his girlfriend Autumn, and our five dogs, Riley, Moka, Sammie, Rafael, and Ginger. It was a hoot with the dogs running around like crazy, but we had so much fun :) And I totally got everything I wanted, and then some. I only asked for two things, but I got so much more than that! It seems my friends and family know me far better than I thought :)
I got the new Flip video camera from my dad and his wife, and it was awesome. I took so many hilarious videos of the dogs and our Christmas experiences. Mom and I were watching them earlier, and we were laughing so hard tears were running down our faces. It's such a little camera, but the picture is really nice and clear. I can record up to 2 hours of video on it! It's not good for far away shots, but it sure is nice for taking videos of the dogs...I can't wait to harass Riley and take videos of it :P He LOVES being touched and all!
I hope everyone else had an amazing holiday. It certainly is all about family and friends during this time of year. Surround yourself with people who love and respect you...surround yourself with people who treat you well. Because in the end, you'll find out who really loves and respects you...and life is too short to be with people who treat you poorly. We all deserve the best...so with that said, I hope you had an amazing Christmas, and have a wonderful 2010!!

Back with a new blog spot...
I deleted my last blog, because I didn't like the negativity...I've decided with 2010, I will be making some changes in my life. I have been through so many trials and tribulations over the past year...not all of them have been the best, but they've made me who I am now...who I will be in 2010. So here's to a new positive spin on my life...here's to a fabulous 2010!
When my life suddenly and drastically changed 2 1/2 weeks ago, I didn't know where to go...what to do....how to handle the sudden changes. Then I realized this was exactly where I needed to be. I had planned on changing my entire life, uprooting my house and home to move somewhere with a man I thought I wanted to spend my life with. I found out we weren't meant to be together BEFORE I sold my house...BEFORE I moved across the country...BEFORE I uprooted my entire life. This was meant to happen, because now I am still me...I am still in my house, in my fabulous job, where I'm meant to be. Had any of this happened after I changed my entire life, I would be stuck in a bad relationship in a city where I knew nobody...I'm so happy this all happened now. Because if I was able to fall in love and trust a man who wasn't right for me, then think of how beautiful it will be when I fall in love and trust the man who is right for me. I found this quote that suits me to a T right now...
Watching you walk out of my life hasn't made me bitter or cynical about love, but rather, it has shown me that if I wanted so badly to be with the wrong person, how beautiful it will be when the right one comes along.
This quote is so true...I thought I wanted to be with Lee for the rest of my life. And I fought to make things better when he wasn't fighting for me. And if I wanted so badly to be with him, so obviously the wrong person, I can't imagine what it will be like when I find the right man. My dad told me when it's real, true love, it isn't work...being with Lee was always work. I thought I could be myself around him, but in reality, I had to change who I was so I didn't make him angry. What kind of relationship is that? I guess it's true that love really is blind...as I said above, I'm so happy it ended now...b/c I honestly don't know what would've happened had I moved to Kansas City, MO for him. My whole life would be a huge mess...
So yes, I am looking at this whole situation positively. If I thought Lee was the person I was supposed to be with, I can only imagine what it will be like when I actually find the man I'm supposed to be with. I know I sound like I'm living in a fairy tale or hoping for something more, but I'm thinking positively. I hope there is something more out there for me...there has to be. Because I deserve a fabulous man who will treat me, my family, and my friends with respect, honor, integrity, honesty, and trust. For now, I will be me...I will just be me.
Thank you to my wonderful friends and family for their never-ending support through such a difficult time in my life. I'm keeping my head up and taking it one day at a time...b/c there's nothing else I can do for now :)
New year, new me....new beginnings.
