A Wedding

I will be officiating a wedding on the 29th of this month. One of my best friends, whom I’ve been friends with for 31 years, is getting married. I’m so excited for him. I still can’t believe they asked ME to marry them. I’m honored. I am quite nervous, however. I’ve never done this before. I have a book that I will read from because I can’t memorize all that by then. Plus they are writing their own vows and each of them will be singing 2 songs to each other. The men will be in blue and black, the bride will be in pink and the girls and I will wear black with some pink. It’s going to be nice…..wish me luck!

A Poem From My Book

A silent touch in the night
Somewhere bwtween closing my wys and a dreama
Was your love
Overwhelming me with such a passion
and a glimpse of heavens light
Up above

Even though I could not begin to see you
You knew that I would beautifully feel
You there
To remind me of your eternal essence
and to say that you are indeed waiting
There somewhere

I then had such a fullness in my heart
to know the knowing I have always had
Was true
that in all my earthly illusions and,
My reality dreams, I have a soulmate
In you

Guide me on the path of glory
Whether I am awake or asleep
Light my way
bring me back into our infinite joy
Lets not wait another life nor
Another day

WRITTEN; by ME

hope you enjoyed it!`
And, this poem was an experience I had…..

Vacation

Our vacation to Florida is all booked now……we are staying with friends for most of the time, but are going to the beach for 3 nights at an oceanfront hotel. Now we are really excited! I hope to find some cute stuff to bring back for friends. We will be going to a huge flea market, possibly a spring, and lots of fishing….im so excited to see my friend! I haven’t seen her in over 30 years! We will be gone for 11 days….perfect amount of time. I can’t wait! Have you been to Florida? What do you think of it?

Astrology

Do you believe in astrology? I can’t deny the similarities in ourselves. I am a Cancer, moon in Aries and Aquarius rising. Just the general descriptions of astrological signs may leave you confused and saying, that’s not me at all. That’s why you need to check your entire natal chart, which you can do for free online. Cancers are supposed to be homebodies. I am not. That’s prolly my moon in Aries. We are also supposed to be frugal….i am not…..So, when your reading your daily horoscope, it might not jive due to the location of all the planets, your moon sign and your rising sign. I recommend the book “LOVE SIGNS” by Linda Goodman if your interested in seeing how each sign gets along with each other. I have never found a more comprehensive book about astrology and love. It’s really good. Of course, the book doesn’t take your other planets into consideration, it’s based on just your sun sign. But it’s really really good. I have old copies which are split into two large books. I got them on eBay…..so, do you believe?

Moms birthday

Mom passed away in April of 2018. Today is her birthday. My aunt is coming to pick me up in 2 hours. We are going to Olive Garden for lunch, then to JC Pennys for bare minerals and then to hobby lobby. It’s going to be wonderful. I had a friend who used to come over every year on moms birthday, but she passed away a couple years ago. It’s always nice to do something on moms birthday. Always let the people you love, know it. Tell them often and spend as much time as you can with them….you never know when they won’t be here anymore. I miss my mom a lot.

Planning next years vacation

This Friday I will be making travel arrangements for our vacation to Florida. We will be going in March. I have a Bestie who lives there that we are going to go visit. We will get a hotel and a car. We will spend 4 nights there, then drive to the beach and stay 3 nights there, then back again for another 3 nights and then home. I’m excited to see my friend. I haven’t seen her in over 30 years! And to the beach, hopefully, will be warm enough to play in the ocean and get a good tan. I have to be careful of the sun though. I’m a bit allergic. When we went to Hawaii, I broke out in little blisters all over my arms and got really burnt. So, when I’m not in the water, I need a hat and a cover up……we have never been to Florida before, so I’m looking forward to the experience. We will be doing lots of fishing. My friend has 3 boats. A paddle boat, a motor boat and a pontoon boat…..I wonder if we will see any gators. That would be a sight to see, right? If you’ve been to Florida, do tell me what you did and how you liked it.

Depression is a common mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, loss of interest in activities, and changes in behavior, thinking, and sleep. It can manifest in various forms, including major depressive disorder, and is treatable through therapy, medication, or a combination of both.

My boyfriend from 4th grade to 7th grade has recently committed suicide. My heart hurts for him. Even tho I moved away in the middle of 7th grade, I’ve loved him always. Even now. I’m so sad over it. Depression is so real and it’s debilitating.

I’ve been down that road myself, however, I never could commit suicide. I couldn’t do that to my kids and my family. Please reach out to friends and family who seem down and depressed. I’m so sorry that people think killing themselves is the only answer to their problems……

I wish he could hear me when I talk to him. Yes, I talk to him out loud, even. He was one of my kindred souls, I’m sure of it. How many children fall in love and love them their whole life? Rare. But I loved him deeply and I always will.

Old friends

I just found out tonight that my childhood friend is coming to see me next month. We’ve been friends since the summer after 6th grade. I’m glad our friendship survived all these years. We are 62 years old now……long time friends. I moved out of my childhood town and it was heart wrenching. I left her behind and also a boy I cared for deeply. He was my boyfriend from 4th grade to 7th grade. That’s a long time for mere children, and prolly quite rare. My next post is about him…..

home plans/moving to the country

Our friends are going to buy a big chunk of land and they are going to let us live on the land too. We have a house picked out already. There’s lots to do once the property is bought. Tree it, fireproof it…..put in electric, well, and septic. Plus prep the home site to put the house on it when it’s time. We need to fix up current home to sell. It won’t sell the way it is right now. Anyhow, I’m really looking forward to living in the country. Peace and quiet……we applied for an equity loan to fix this house up to sell…..we don’t know if we will get approved or not….we shall see. Wish us luck!
