1-2-3

Breath breath breath. Blink blink blink.

Show signs of life.

I am alive. I am not stressed. I am not governed by change. I fight against change. I mean I love change. I LOVE change. 1-2-3. I LOVE CHANGE!

In the midst of day 11 and counting and things are still being flipped and flopped including my stomach and hives. Why can't things be simple. Just don't make things complicated and I will be okay. I won't be mean, I won't be stressed, I won't be tense.

Great a night with the girls and maybe, just maybe after a few drinks they will recongnize me as the calm-cool-collected Reiner Lynn..... 1-2-3. Calm-Cool-Collected.

Far from it! I need a massage, a bathing suite, a facial appointment, a father-daughter song, rehearsal shoes, hair cut..........

AHHHHHH!!!! Change!

Breath, breath, breath. Blink, blink, blink.....

Kickin' the Bucket

My love and I were riding home after treating ourselves to 'The Bucket List'.

"Baby, what's on your bucket list?"

After a moment, he turns to me and says, "Babe, I'd like to think I chase my bucket every day."

Hmmmmm.

My heart warms, my cheeks blush as we sit in silence..... taking in every second of our beautiful drive home through the lakes trees and into our dreams.

Words from a beautiful man....

Mother-Stubborn

Cheers to the New Year! Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!

Along with champagne, dancing, and a kiss from my love- came a mouth-full of stubbornness! Raw-Ugly-Uncontainable STUBBORNNESS. Ending one fabulous year only to enter another full of excitement, change and love.... a stitchy 8 lettered word is threatening to eat up all the bliss.

So, a few New Year's Remarks.

I pledge to take deep deep breaths through challenges/challenging people. I will look at one's heart and not an one moment. I will remember that 'these two shall pass'. I will choose to love. Choose to forgive. Remember that though I try, I am not perfect. Why expect that of others? Choose love. I will choose love. I stubbornly choose to love.

My New Year's Resolution:

Lose weight..... lose the stubborn weight.
