7月27日 too much of nothing Okay, how many times have I heard myself say "not night now, I have to do the dishes, laundry, clean, mow the lawn." Not anymore. Life is too short to let opportunities pass by to wait until "next time". SOOOOOO. Here's my adventures. Every week I have been taking the children on "day trips". To Hamlin Beach, Niagra falls, to Rochester to see historical sites, as long as it takes 2 hours or less to get there, we go. I have never thought such simple things could grow as a part of us. The memories we are making, just to be able to show my children that there is a world so much greater than they know, and anything is possible is the best thing in the world to see. Please see the pics that go with this title. 4月18日 Thoughts of the dayThe last few days Megan has been very sick. I have never felt so helpless. Today, Dylan had enough of not getting the attention he wanted so OOPS! He pushed Megan down the stairs. What am I doing wrong? I need a break!!!!! Oh, by the way, Scott lost his job... this is a good thing, he has been hired by another company which he will have a better position. No lapse in employment. 1月12日 CHAIN E-MAILS AND WISHESI KEEP RECEIVING ALL OF THESE CHAIN E-MAILS FROM FRIENDS... IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T APPRECIATE THEM, IT'S JUST THAT, WHAT IS WITH THE "MAKE A WISH" AT THE END? SOME TIME AGO I WAS WISHING FOR HAPPINESS. I REALIZED THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT DOES NOT NEED TO BE "WISHED" FOR OR "GIVEN" TO ME. I HAVE (AND ALWAYS HAD) EVERYTHING TO BE HAPPY ABOUT. I THINK THE KEY IS ONCE WE LEARN TO EMBRACE WHAT WE HAVE (INSTEAD OF WISHING FOR WHAT WE DIDN'T HAVE) EVERYTHING ELSE WILL FOLLOW. 12月11日 REALITYWhat is reality? It is how each of us perceive what is presented to us. Reality is different for each individual. Did you realize that we were capable of loving who we choose, being happy, or just being? Have you ever wondered why your friend thought that their significant other was absolutly georgous, and you thought they were grotesk? It is all what we choose to see. Maybe I live in a fantisy world to some people... but I love MY reality. 11月29日 PeoplePeople (in general) amaze me. Why is it that for most people, they wait until death is knocking on their door to see all of the beautiful things in life? It seems as if people are so focused on the materialistic aspects of life that they forget what really matters. A simple touch, a smile, a kiss, a connection with another human. How do people forget that they need those things until everything else is taken away? What is life without people to share it with? I think this is why I started this site. I want to be able to share who I am with the people I care about. 11月24日 deathI am so grateful for the work I do. In a way, I never stop learning and growing as an individual. Today, there were 3 deaths at the hospital. Yes, on Thanksgiving, and I cried 3 times. One that stood out from the rest was a young women with cancer. Her fiance had left to go home and take a shower. Within 6 minutes of him leaving, she passed. When he returned, and family told him of the news he wept uncontrollably (rightfully so) and collapsed to the ground. All I could think was how much they must have loved eachother. Her, waiting for him to leave so he wouldn't have to see her pass (I feel that people do this subconsiouly) and him unwilling to leave her side, until he was forced by family. This was an expected death, but that does not make it easy. Today has taught me to live and love as if each day was your last. Another man with cancer and a prognosis of <2 weeks asked me today to run away and alope with him (74 year old). He spoke of his life and how content he was with every aspect. He stated "A terible ending to a great story". I told him that it wasn't the end that counted, but the content within your life. I guess in a way we are all imortial. What we share with the people we love (stories and experiences) live on throughout generations. It is as if we become a part of the people we love and it snowballs down the hill. The trick is how are we going to be remembered? 11月21日 LifeIn life, I have never imagined that I would be where I am. There are no regrets. If I knew then, what I know now... I wouldn't change a thing.
About me... my heart is with my family. I have never felt so much joy, then when I am with my husband and children. Family first (ALWAYS), then career.
About my Husband (Scott)... WOW sums it up. Scott is a hard working, motivated man. He is my energizer bunny. All of his actions come from his heart. He is the type of person that would give a stranger the shirt off of his back.
About Dylan... A "mini-me" of Scott. He also has a sensitive side to him. Every day he amazes me with the ideas he has and the comments he makes. I wish he would stay my little boy forever, but at the same time, I can't wait to meet the man he grows up to be.
About Megan... My angel, no matter what time of day, I can always count on a smile. I have never met a baby so happy and easy going. I fall in love with her more every day. |
