My body feels like it just fought Chuck Liddell

Okay so I know a little about UFC. Rick stops and watchs it from time to time and my cube neighbor Claudia is a fan so I hear about who is good and who is dropping like a fly. Speaking of who is HOTT! George St. Pierre can "Voulez vous choucher avec moi" anytime. Yes I probably just spelt something in French wrong Mom; but without you reading my blog, no one can correct it for me.
But seriously, I am dead tired after moving all weekend and can confirm we are 100% moved. We have to go over the apartment with fine tooth comb so we don't get charged any kind of fee. Two ladies from adidas lived in same apt. building and moved out. One of them was charged a $75.00 debris fee and the other was charged a $35.00 early key return fee. This is how crooked and unsatisfactory the apt can be. So with that being said, Rick and I are cleaning like no tomorrow. For those of you who know us, that is saying something because speaking for myself, cleaning is my least favorite chore. Why clean a floor when two minutes later the dog walks over and drinks water with his bucket face? No sense cleaning, re-cleaning and re-cleaning. Yes I do clean but it usually is with the moon. When it is harvest and spring moon!
Speaking of Harvest Moon and how Maureen loves this special lunar event...The Full Harvest Moon is Sunday October 4th at 2:10am which is also the autumnal equinox. Good time to clean!

How come God is taking them so young?

It must be that I am getting old and that God keeps taking young people who are in the prime of their life. Danielle's friend who was a druggie and got off drugs, got her life straightened out and then went to hospital with the flu and fell into a coma and died. Then cousin Freddie who was too funny and happy of a person to leave this world and be only 40 yrs old with pancreatic cancer. Sharon the DJ of radio station that I knew in high school and know that she was skinny and died of heart attack is still the biggest mind blower. All the lives she touched on Channel 6 and Fun107 is amazing that God is taking them younger and younger. Still wonder why Tyler at 22 years old?
Just makes me say more prayers for those I have lost and for those still living.
More Angels to watch down over me....

Where is my Mom?

I wish she could call me but all she has is her cell phone? I don't have her cell phone to say hello.
If anyone talks to her tell her I said hello and I miss/love her
xoxoxoxo

New House is scary

I was just telling Brianne how the first night sleeping in the house was so scary. I am not use to no noise and complete darkness. It is like house-sitting Maureeen's out in East Freetown. Thinking that Jason is out in the woods with kill kill kill muttering under his mask. Then Rick brought his Big Boy and Junior to the house and I could sleep better Saturday night.
I was so exhausted Friday night from a full week of work and I took Tuesday off to help move. Rick has pretty much been doing most of the move himself. I helped with a few heavy things like the sofa, until I dropped it on my leg and it went down the apartment stairs boom boom boom....to the bottom. The next heaviest thing was the bureau set but without the drawers in them, EASY-Peasy!
Now it is all the loose things like lamps, shelves, plants to bring over which I told Rick to let me do a few loads after work. No matter how much room you think you have, you never have enough.
For those of you who read the blog and want to know my new address, email me and I will give it to you. My phone is so static and busy tone so even that is not working right. My ADT alarm is working super which is another peace of mind knowing our stuff especially Big Boy and junior are safe. Brier has to be happy now too without all those stairs to climb. He likes to curl up in a ball on his beds in our new bedroom. Now he has the whole yard to himself.
Much better here in new house than old apartment. Little Non-town that has no goverment and has only one post office.

9/9

We are suppose to close on the house tomorrow, 9/9. I was trying to tell Rick how that date always reminded me of my first wedding to Todd and how slowly every memory I have of that marriage is ending.  Instead of thinking of Todd, now I will be reminded of "our" future together.
Yet I can't help but think back to where I was on 9/9/89 marrying the first man I ever loved and how I never got to experience or learn how other men would treat me. I never imagined 20 years ago that I would be divorced and living in South Carolina married to another man who truly loves me for who I am both externally and internally.
It makes me so proud look back and know that I am both mentally and emotionally stronger as a woman in my 40's than I was in my 20's. I wish I knew now what I should of known then. My only regret is not having the kids I could have had while in my 20's, but then that would mean they are half Todd's, which I am glad that I didn't have to go through a custody battle.
God has blessed my life and I am thankful for the second chance. We will be blessing our new home with prayers & holy water tomorrow afternoon.
A new beginning on Sept 9, 2009!
