Dating

I wish this post was about that I am dating someone but the opposite is true right. In the last couple of weeks I have been getting to a guy. We have been talking and getting to know each other. When we first starting to get know each other, I was so excited to see him. I even got butterflies when I would see him which I hadn't felt in a long time. I loved having a smile on my face, him always seeming to look at me and come talking to me. Well in the last week something has just changed. I still feel those butterflies and the excitement but I feel like on his end I am just someone he can just use. Lately when we have been going out to lunch I have been the one paying, when I made dinner I have to bring him the leftovers. I have given him my number twice and yet he has still not called me. I really needed him this weekend with some things going on but I don't have his number so I had no way to call him. I had no one to talk and yet I really wanted to talk to him. During the last couple of weeks, I just have really loved getting to talk to him and felt so comfortable around him. Today I saw him and I know I had a lot going on but I was so digusted to see him. I didn't want to talk to him at all. I feel like all I am to him is just someone he can use for what he wants or needs. I don't need a friend like that or don't want even a guy like that. I have been down that road with a former boyfriend and I did not enjoy it. And in the end I had my heart broken. I am not ready to have my heart broken again!! There is a song that has been sticking in my mind about how I have been to the last couple of relationships. It is by Taylor Swift and the song is "White Horse". A lot of the song is how I feel about these guys. I just want to find a guy that I am their everything!! Hopefully that will come soon. But here is the song and the lyrics.


Say you're sorry, that face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you

Holding on, the days drag on
Stupid girl, I should have known
I should have known

I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell

This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to come around

Baby I was naive, got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
I had so many dreams about you and me
Happy endings, now I know

I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell

This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse, to come around

And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry

Cause I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairytale
I'm gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rearview mirror disappearing now

And its too late for you and your white horse
Now its too late for you and your white horse, to catch me now

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it's too late to catch me now

Life Changes

So when I moved down to Texas last August, I wasn't sure if I was going to stay down here or what was going to happen. I know part of being down here was to help me to heal after the divorce. During this time of being down here my brother has been dating a girl that works for one of the local television stations. I have always known that at some point that she would not stay in Waco and with that my brother would probably go with her. Well we are at that point where I am going to have to decide what I need to do. Do I go with them?? I love being in Texas being down here. Or do I go back home to Stl??? I love being home and sometimes just feels so right. I have all my friends back home and there is always something to do. I don't know but I do know I need to figure out soon.

Long Time

Man, I can't believe it has been so long since I have blogged. There has just been a lot going on in my life. Been busy working at my job, since March I have been working 11:30 to 8:15 pm and than having to work Saturdays as well. At least I have Sundays and Mondays off which makes it nice because I can relax and run errands and sometimes get the stuff done around the house. During this time I had been saving up all of paid time off so I could go home. I got to go home the last weekend of March which happened to be the start of racing season back at home. The week leading up to going home I kept checking the weather and praying that if there was any rain that it wouldn't mess up the fact that I was ready to go racing. I kept looking forward to going to opening night of the races. If you have read previous blogs or my old blog you know the stock car races play a big part in my life and I had missed being able to go to the races. The night before we left for St.Louis I really should have gone to bed early but for some reason could not go to sleep. We had to leave for Dallas early because our flight left at 7 am. We got into St Louis that Friday at 8:30 it was a really quick flight surprisely! Thank goodness the weather had been good and that day it was gorgeous!!! So I knew the races were on that night. So went to the races that night and got to pray during opening night. Was good to see all my racing friends, was a little weird to see my ex husband but oh well. The only bad thing about the night was that it was freezing cold! Then the rest of the weekend spent time with my family, got to see some friends and got my hair down by my favorite dresser!! After that been working and trying to figure some things out.

More to come

Got a couple of posts out of the way tonight but worn out! There will be more to come this weekend.

Thoughts and Prayers

I always like to see whats going on with the news at home. It is always good to just see what is going on and what changes that happen. But on that same note I hate to read about the violence and crime that happens. It really is upsetting when you read about something that you happen to know the people that it effects. I don't know if any of my readers are in the Belleville, IL/St. Louis, MO area but if you have been following the news about the little 2 year that got beaten by her mother's boyfriend. The guy did it because the little girl wouldn't stop crying. I am sorry but you don't beat a child to get them to start crying, that only makes things worse. The little girl is in the hospital and in critical condition. She had to have surgery to remove some of her intestines and is connected to a feeding tube. They said that if she does survive that she may be have to have a feeding tube for the rest of her life. I know the family of the girl. Her grandparents go to my fathers church. And it just sucks that their grandchild had to go through this. If you guys could not only keep them in your prayers, also please keep this little girl in your prayers. I am posting the links for those who may not have read the stories.

The Deer vs The "Box"

Yes I know an interesting title for a blog but probably a couple of weeks ago or so I had a very interesting night. It was a typical work day this night got off around 7 pm. Now my drive from Waco to work I do drive on a Hwy that goes through some farm/country area. When I drive home at night, I have never had any problems with any animals running out in the road or seeing animals on the side of the road. Well I was home from work, had just gotten off the phone with my brother. I had come to the part of the highway that I have slow down to 60. I start to see something in the corner of my eye. Before I could turn my head to really see what it was I see in front of my Aztec a deer!! Well it was actually a buck as I recalled later and then driving home from work one night got to really look at it. It definitely had antlers. I pull into the nearest gas station to see why kind of damage was done. During all of this I was shaking. My body was just going crazy. I get out of the car and look at what had been done. I will say this before I go to talk about the damage done to the "Box" but man, does Pontiac make a great vehicle!!! I hit that deer with force, again I was going 60 mph, and there really wasn't a ton of damage. The left side of the car took most of the it and that is where the deer came out of at first. So I look over the damage the left headlight is completely gone, the grill was completely gone, the hood was cracked and popped up. During this I got to go through the process of dealing with my insurance company, getting a rental car and then buying my first car. I am doing this all on my own. I ended up getting a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe. I like it there are some things I miss that this car does not have like automatic lights that come on, the center console was better and then the automatic seats. I am posting pics from the damage hopefully I can soon post some pics of the new car.

Where the deer first hit.

Song of the Day

So I realized I haven't posted in over a month. I just have been busy with work. My hours haven't been bad during that time just they were constantly changing and most days I would come home from work so worn out. So my blog got ignored again but something I am trying to work on.

Today's song of the day when I first heard I really enjoyed because I enjoy this singer. Well then I heard the song and really listened to the lyrics and those lyrics kinda rang true for me. Today's song is by Michael Buble and it is his new song "Haven't Met You Yet". I am going to post the lyrics with the song so you understand why the mean to me. He talks about that he has a lot of broken hearts and trying to get yourself back in there. And trying to give up with things don't go your way but he knows that that right person will come along and that is how I feel. I thought I had my Mr. Right but I know that person will come along but I just haven't met him yet! So enjoy the song.



I'm not surprised,
Not everything lasts,
I've broken my heart so many times I stopped keeping track.
Talk myself in,
I talk myself out,
I get all worked up,
Then I let myself down,

I tried so very hard not to lose it;
I came up with a million excuses,
I thought I thought of every possibility,

And I know some day that it’ll all turn out,
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And I promise you kid that I give so much more than I get~ mmm.......
I just haven't met you yet.

Mmmmm ....

I might have to wait,
I’ll never give up,
I guess it's half timin', and the other half's luck,
Wherever you are,
Whenever it's right,
You'll come outta nowhere and into my life.

And I know that we can be so amazin',
And baby your love is gonna change me,
And now I can see every possibility, mmmmmm....

Somehow I know that it’ll all turn out,
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid, I'll give so much more than I get, mmmm....
I just haven't met you yet.

They say all’s fair
in love and war
But I won’t need to fight it,
we'll get it right an',
we'll be united

Instrumental

and I know that we can be so amazin',
And bein' in your life is gonna change me,
And now I can see every single possibility, mmmmmm

And someday I know it'll all turn out,
And I'll work to work it out,
Promise you kid I’ll give more than I get
Than I get, than I get, than I get.

Oh, you know it'll all turn out,
and you'll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid to give so much more than I get, yeah
I just haven't met you yet.

I just haven't met you yet,
Oh, promise you kid,
To give so much more than I get.

I said love love love love love love love.....
I just haven't met you yet
Love love love .....
So doy day ay ay ay, ay ay yeah
I just haven't met you yet!

2009 in review

It seems like everybody does their review of their 2009. My 2009 has been an eventful year to say the least!! It has alot of ups and some downs as well. I know people to the major points each month but there is not alot each month so I am just going to do the highlights.

The first is that in April we sold my Grandmothers house. This house has some great and very fond memories. Her house used to be the summer house, where we would go in the summers when we would go out on the lake, have BBQ's and where we would play cards. Later it turned it my grandparents real house. It was really hard to say good-bye to the house.

The next major thing is the one thing that I have dealt with a lot this past year. That thing was my divorce. After falling in love with I thought was the one the marriage just crumbled. We were together almost 3 years and only married a year. I had sick and was trying to get better and then the next thing I know he is gone. It has been very tough dealing with it all but in the end he needs to do what is best for him. I have been doing my best to work on me and get me ready for the next one. He did leave me with a lot of unanswered questions when he left.

The third major thing that happened for me was I moved to Texas. This was a major step for me. I moved down here knowing a few friends in the surrounding areas and then my brother. I came here without a job but this step was very very needed for me to help heal with the divorce. It has been hard not having my parents close since we are very close. I have found a job down here and hopefully I will get on a set schedule so I can finish going back to school. I still really want to my get my degree and do PR work for NASCAR. It has been nice living with my brother and getting to know him again. We have had our ups and downs but it has been great being down here. I am still looking for a church to get involved in and also to make some new friends.

So that has been my 2009 in a nut shell. Looking forward to my 2010 and see what it holds for me.

I'm Alive!!!

Wow I can't believe I haven't posted last year!! I have a lot to catch up with and so I know what I am going to be working on. So I am going to try and get another post done tonight.
