...it takes Every Kind of People to make the world go 'round....

Said the fight to make ends meet
Keeps a man upon his feet
Holding down his job
Trying to show he can't be bought

It takes every kind of people
To make what life's about
Every kind of people
To make the world go 'round

Someone's looking for a lead
In his duty to a King or creed
Protecting what he feels is right
Fights against wrong with his life

There's no profit in deceit
Honest men know that
Revenge does not taste sweet
Whether yellow, black or white
Each and every man's the same inside

It takes every kind of people
To make what life's about
Every kind of people
To make the world go 'round

You know that love's the only goal
That could bring a peace to any soul
Hey, and every man's the same
He wants the sunshine in his name

It takes every kind of people
To make what life's about
Every kind of people
To make the world go 'round...

Where I have ever been in the US of A

Like the Lyrics of that old Louis Armstrong song:

It's Been a Long, Long, Long, Time!
"Kiss me once...and kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again
It's been a long, long time"
So I have not written in this blog for 15months... that is One Year and 3 Months for those of you in the back of the room...
But now I'm Back!
Anybody miss me?!
*crickets chirping*
So -- Lets see what time we can catch up on here....
well - not at this moment-- I am busy....
Stay Tuned!

Ohh-hoo Witchy Woman, see how high she fliiiieeeesss....

Am I a "Witchy Woman?" Well.. not really, I don't reckon. Maybe a "Bitchy Woman" sometimes... But who Aint?! (tee heee heeeee)

No, No - I just had the song in my head after watching the re-run of "Seinfield" last night where Elaine is dating this guy and she wants "Witchy Woman" to be their couples song... He wouldn't share "Desperado"....

Enough of that!

Writing for the first time in a long time. Been busy, busy over here at work.... and now its dead because everyone's at the annual convention this week. While I do have work - it isn't insane running all around like a chicken with their head cut off kinda work... just normal - and quite and calm... mmm calm...

Weather has been wonderful as of late... and I mean WONDERFUL.... 60s and 70s with plenty of sun! After work, Chris and I go for walk/runs... play outside with the pooches.... on the weekend we are at parks and playing and happy!

And not only that -- but LIFE has Been GOOD! And thats the greatest...

Yes - parents seperating/divorcing is still a recurring issue, and my grandma's dementia/illness is still a present concern... I didn't say Life Is Perfect - I said Its Been Good.
Life hasn't been - since early February - the grunt and moan it had been when I began this blog.... Which is why - I started the Blog in the first place - to vent and bump off of people to maybe figure out how to approach and deal with some of the things that were all crumbling down at once... but in 4 months - with help from friends, bloggers, venting, The Bigfoot special on the Discovery Channel, and the Lord - I think I have been able to put the right focus on some issues and sort it out...

Which means the Blog did the trick!
Wow!

On the other hand - I like typing out some of the silly things that run through my wacky mind all day too... so I''l keep it up - cause its funny to me :) And thats what matters...

Do I have a sucky blog? Perhaps... who cares? Not me...
No It isn't particularly mindbending - Doesn't deal with smart issues of the moment , or celebrity gossip, or political fodder... But - I know its better than the freaky asian teens with their crap anime blogs in broken "Engrish" -- There. I said it... I'm sorry but thats how I feel.

See?! Even now - this rambling is great... I love it..... Am I strange - YES. Yes I am :)


....IN OTHER NEWS.....

I have been on a diet for the last month and 2 weeks. Went from 145lbs (at 5'8") and no real muscles...drinking wine or booze concoction most of the weekend and eating nachos and cheese friday night thru monday morning -- To the healthy eater who exercises 3 days a week weighing in now at 134lbs (still at 5'8"- haven't shrunk or grown any.)

Also - a habitual nail biter, since the age of 6 when my mom and dad forced me to end the thumb-sucking... I have stopped biting my fingernails! (Never was really into toe nail biting - thank the lord!) Which is a difficult task! (Yes - to stop nail biting, and to try and bit your toenails, I imagine... this jokes getting old...)
So - Hooray for me.

Tonight - however is Friday - the first of 2 days of the week when I am allowed to eat and drink whatever I'd Like.... and there will be drinking tonight because we are celebrating my mom's 50th birthday tonight! Wooo-ee won't that be fun!!

So I will definitely be drinking White Russians with dinner tonight -- Oh - Boy Fun!!
Dad's coming! My brother too--- oh bliss! Everyone will get along swimmingly as per usual! I just know it :) I love them all.... but my.word. Mom and her separated husband "who left her right before she turned 50, the bastard" (her quote), Her wild and trainwreck of a son and her bossy britches daughter, who "acts just like her father" (again, her quote)... and their significant others.... ahh--- can't wait! Just 3 hours left until Party Time!! WHOOO -HOOO! Dysfuntional Family funtime!

Actually - It might not be so bad... I enjoy painting a picture though :)

you may as well make it dance."

"Alive and Kicking" - Simple Minds

I love this tune! One of my favorites - and its Totally Eighties!!

You turn me on, you lift me up
And like the sweetest cup I'd share with you
You lift me up, don't you ever stop, I'm here with you
Now it's all or nothing

'Cause you say you'll follow through
You follow me, and I, I, I follow you


What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Who's gonna save you?


Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, until your love is, Alive
Oh you lift me up to the crucial top, so I can see

Oh you lead me on, till the feelings come
And the lights that shine on
But if that don't mean nothing
Like if someday it should fall through
You'll take me home where the magic's from
And I'll be with you


What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Don't say goodbye
Don't say goodbye


In the final seconds who's gonna save you?
Oh, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking
Oh, Alive and Kicking
Stay until your love is, love is, Alive and Kicking
