Obama

This week we had the State of The Union Address by President Obama and I thought it was a great speech.  I think it's time these lawmakers unite and do the job they were sent there to do.  Quit looking too far forward to 2012 election and focus on what our country needs right now.  We need a congress that isn't trying to undermine the Comander in Chief!  Don't vote no just because you want the Democrats to fail so you can take the Presidency in two years.  Don't think you can win if Obama has some successful legislation?  Are you that afraid of him that you can't play nice?  Republicans/Tea Party is so far gone at the moment it is sickening.  Get some shit done and call it a day.  You work for us not for yourselves dammit!  If we had an election today, I'd proudly vote for Obama!  

back to december

I can't get enough of this song, so I decided to learn the lyrics.

BACK TO DECEMBER

I'm so glad you made time to see me
How's life, tell me how's your family
I haven't seen them in a while
You've been good, busier than ever
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why

'Cause the last time you saw me
'Twas still burned in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I'd go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I go back to December all the time

These days I haven't been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side and
Realized I loved you in the fall
And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I'd go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night,
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking
Probably mindless dreaming
If we loved again I swear I'd love you right

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand

But this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I'd go back to December
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine and
I go back to December, turn around and make it alright and
I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind and
I go back to December all the time

#RHOBH

If you're on twitter then you'll know what #RHOBH stands for. (Real Housewives of Beverly Hills)I pretty much hate Kyle Richards a whole lot and have pretty much about all season long.  Tonight's season finale just proved what a mean girl Kyle really is.  Who does that to their sister on national television?  Maybe now everyone can see that it wasn't all Camille Grammer who was causing all the drama.  It's been one mean girl all along, Kyle Richards.  I also watched the after show "Watch What Happens Live" with @BravoAndy and Taylor Armstrong and Adrienne Maloof and the poll tonight asked whose side are you on and I'm glad to say that Kim Richards got the most votes.  FINALLY people are seeing what kind of meanie Kyle really is.  I keep looking at her fashion and her hair on the show and I see people tweeting about her fab clothes and hair and I'm taken a back.  I mean what woman in her 40s wears hair of a teen?  Cut that damn mop already or fix it up nice like Adrienne and Taylor.  The clothes Kyle wears is like moomoos or something I wouldn't wear anything she wears.  I think the stylistas on the show are definitely Adirenne, Taylor, Camille, and of course Lisa for sure.  Can't wait to watch the Reunion show been hearing so much about it.  I feel bad for what Camille has gone through, but if she can deal with a breakup like a strong woman we all can.  Kudos to you Camille!  

love love love this song

Just got Taylor Swift's newest cd and I'm loving this song.  Take a listen!

2011 is upon me!

It's now 2011 can you believe it?  I've been tidying up around my home because I really do want to be more organized this year.  My closet is full of so much stuff and clothes I don't even remember owning.  I know I've made this resolution in years past, and all I can say is that I hope I'm more successful this time around hee hee.  I'm typing this from my newly put together "scrapbook room" and I'm so giddy to have my own creative space that isn't my cluttered bedroom.  I live in a 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment.  I have a small kitchen, a dining room and a living room which is a pretty good size for being just me here.  

2010 was a different kind of year for me for sure.  I feel like everything I knew about myself and my life up to now was as it should be.  I found out how to live with what I have and not to want more stuff.  I didn't shop or do stuff for me I had a drastic change that forced me to rethink what it means to be on my own.  I used to have a HUGE paycheck that was reduced tremendously.  I'll go as far to say I learned to live on less than 1/2 of the salary I was accustomed to.  I used to take care of everyone else and never myself.  I used to be the one to pick up the check at dinner almost every time.  I used to buy things for everyone else except for myself.  What is so hurtful is that all these people sort of disappeared from my life after my bank dried up.  I guess what they say is true in that you'll know who your true friends are when things like this happen to you.  

I have a brother who is one of my best friends and two other girls that are my closest friends.  I have no other friends really.  It's sad to say, but I found it to be true.  Sadly my 2010 was one spent a lot of the time alone in my apartment.  I had LOTS of time to reflect on my life and what I'm doing next.  I used to have everything planned and then I didn't.  

What I want for my 2011 is simplicity, organization, fun, and creativity for myself.  I want to find my happiness in 2011.  I hope I will blog more of my journey on this thing.  We'll have to see about that one.  I have a problem letting go of upset feelings and moving past things.  I don't know that I will ever change, but I also recognize I have some broken relationships with my immediate family.  At the moment I don't see them and I live about 15 minutes away from them.  My life seems simpler when I'm at home alone where there is no family drama.  I don't feel the sense of being comfortable or safe at my parent's home or around my family lately.  I can't explain it better than that right now.  

Here's to 2011 may it be a growing and fabulous year!

Happy Easter!

This is my house!

Don't you just hate when people don't respect you or your home? OMG, I am steaming angry right now. My newphew came over tonight to watch a little cable and use my laptop computer since their pc is broken at the moment. My sister needs to use the laptop so I ask him to please let her use it since he has been on it at least 30 minutes. He tells me, "in a minute". Lets say a minute turned into another 30 minutes. I asked him again and again he responded with in a minute. I'VE HAD ENOUGH WITH THIS KID! He is a 7th grader who thinks he can do or say whatever the hell he wants since his mother doesn't discipline him. I'm already upset because earlier in the week he broke my acrylic album I'm working on and didn't even bother to tell me I found out on my own. I take the laptop from him to give to my sister and he gets all puffy about it. When they leave I'm trying to put on some movies/shows from my DVR and would you believe he deleted most of them? OMG I've had enough. I call his mother and YELL at her. I do the world for her kids and am not appreciated one bit. I am done being Ms Nice Guy with everyone that's it I've had enough. I will no longer hold my feelings in for anyone!

2009 Horoscope

Pisces Outlook for 2009 Pisces
2/19 – 3/20
Year 2009 Overview
In 2009, Pisces will enjoy swimming in new dimensions, as the highly charged Aquarius energy allows you to dream big and manifest your ideas. Your imagination soars, awakening a deep desire to seek spiritual truth and meaning in your life -- and in the world.

Your awareness and new perception helps to serve others. You are able to live freely in the world of transformation, and this encourages others to do the same. They feel supported by your wisdom and understanding. Your inspirational qualities are a large part of your purpose in the world -- your ability to heal and inspire.

At times, it may be difficult for you to live in this world of concrete realities, and conversely, sometimes it's hard for others to understand that all you want to do is live in a world of endless possibilities. As you learn to balance these polarities, harmony prevails.

Pisces Outlook for 2009 Pisces
2/19 – 3/20
Year 2009 Romantic
Love and romance bring idealistic energy your way this year. You enjoy being in touch with the spiritual and mystical part of your nature, so you need a romance that encourages self-discovery, and intimacy that allows you and your lover to connect with each other's soul on a deep level. It's not just anyone who dares to travel as far into the unknown as you do, Pisces!

Your dreams will be ignited as you attract someone (or reach a deeper place in an existing relationship) who is willing to dream with you, and who loves and cherishes you for exactly who you are right now. You refuse to abandon your sense of self in your relationship, so it is crucial that your dreams and visions are supported in your love relationship. In the springtime, you're eager to further explore your commitment with your partner, and to truly understand the practicality of balancing your energies, and maintaining that equal energy. This will be a huge growing opportunity for you. Dramatic shifts in the way you relate to each other are inevitable as you learn more practical ways of growing and sharing.

In the fall, communication between you and your lover will become even more romantically satisfying. This will lead to an even deeper commitment -- marriage perhaps -- as romance becomes more about caring for each other and being sensitive to each other's needs.
