2 Peas Saturday Blogger Challenge

Challenge: Blog about character traits in people that totally annoy you.

I do have a couple of character traits that typically annoy me. These are:

- people who spit

- people who obsess only about themselves

- people who are rude

Craving Fuzzy Peaches

Ok, I gotta tell you. I think I am driving Cory absolutely nuts. For at least a week now I have been waking up in the middle of the night absolutely craving Fuzzy Peaches. Not quite sure what the craving is all about but it is ever single night, usually a couple times a night. I wake up saying "I want Fuzzy Peaches." I am sure Cory is dreading hearing what I say now when I wake up in the middle of the night now. He is a doll though, and went out last night around midnight to buy me some - I think it was just so I'd shut up. HEHE

Challenge: Have you ever had a miracle? Witnessed a miracle? Blog about it...

I guess I could say I have had three miracles in my life. The first two being the births of my beautiful girls. At one point, right before I got pregnant with my first I was told there was a chance I would never get pregnant. And I did, and they are the most amazing thing in my whole life. My other miracle would be getting free from drug use...an amazing accomplishment that I could have never done alone.

Challenge:

What are ur absolute fave song lyrics? Which song?
Blog about it.

This is the song that seems to have been speaking to me most recently. It is called Moments by Emerson Drive. There is just something about this song that catches my heart - that makes me stop and think about all the moments in my life that I am proud of, it makes me think about all the moments in my life that I am not so proud of and it makes me think about how strong I was to change all those bad moments into good ones.

Moments - Emerson Drive I was coming to the end of a long long walk When a man crawled out of a cardboard box Under the E. Street Bridge Followed me on to it I went out halfway across With that homeless shadow tagging along So I dug for some change Wouldn't need it anyway He took it lookin' just a bit ashamed He said, You know, I haven't always been this way I've had my moments, days in the sun Moments I was second to none Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do Like that plane ride coming home from the war That summer my son was born And memories like a coat so warm A cold wind can't get through Lookin' at me now you might not know it But I've had my moments I stood there tryin' to find my nerve Wondering if a single soul on Earth Would care at all Miss me when I'm gone That old man just kept hanging around Lookin' at me, lookin' down I think he recognized That look in my eyes Standing with him there I felt ashamed I said, You know, I haven't always been this way I've had my moments, days in the sun Moments I was second to none Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do Like the day I walked away from the wine For a woman who became my wife And a love that, when it was right, Could always see me through Lookin' at me now you might not know it But I've had my moments I know somewhere 'round a trash can fire tonight That old man tells his story one more time He says I've had my moments, days in the sun Moments I was second to none Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do Like that cool night on the E. Street Bridge When a young man almost ended it I was right there, wasn't scared a bit And I helped to pull him through Lookin' at me now you might not know it Oh, lookin' at me now you might not know it But I've had my moments x4

Digital Layout Shares

I have soooo been loving this new digital scrapbooking thing. It's funny that I work with computers all day, yet my relaxation at home is creating on my own computer. I LOVE IT!!

Once again it has seemed like forever since I have had a chance to update my blog. Things have been so busy - fun but busy. This past week Cory and I went to Toronto for the night and had an amazing adventure - just the two of us - with no stress involved. It was great! I think we both benefited from the stress-free trip. It allowed us both to relax and not have so much stress. Things with Cory are going really well. We are now living together and it has worked so well so far. It seems so natural, like he has always been there. I will add more later... I am between calls at work and am going on break.

It seems like it has been forever since I have been able to update my blog. I have missed being able to blog so very much. I had not realized how much blogging had come to mean as part of my daily life. In the past few weeks I have found that I have hardly even had time to breathe let alone update my crazy thoughts here. I have started my new job and I am really enjoying the new challenges. It has left me tired with little time though. Now that I am adjusting to my new schedule and the new demands of driving into the city for work I am so hoping that it will allow me to be able to figure out my time better so that I have time to myself, time to blog, time to breathe.
