I am hoping to be back soon...

fingers crossed.

I am here...I am here....

wow. what a busy past few months. Thanks for the post smirking...life was crazy.

I find it hard to find things to post about for fear of being boring...ha ha! or even giving away my identity. which, honestly, is a shame. I don't need my posts coming back and used against mister for contempt...freedom of speech does not apply to step situations I guess. Yes, I am still sore about that, and rightfully so. I did not write the articles, but I had them linked and got chewed for that. Whatever.

All is quiet and calm, thank goodness. I imagine it will be for a year or so until the next issue arises.

Mister has decided that if his current job does not work out that we will be open to move away. I am thinking more distance will ease some of the tension, but will be sad that we would lose more time. But, the skids are getting older and their friends seem to come in priority over "visiting" which given the age - makes sense.

aaah - the joys. I will try to get on here more often...

Open again!

Enjoy! Sorry for the break in reading... Cleaned up and roaring to go now!

Much love!

Happy love month everyone!!!!

Step has been quiet around here...you could hear a pin drop. Wonder what is coming up next...ha ha!

Anyone have love plans they want to share? ~smooooooooooooch~ Mister has the day off, but we probably won't have time to sit and stare into each others eyes...oh bummer!

What up!

Good grief! My life is so flipped upside down right now! I had every intention of posting more often but find that family issues have halted that idea for now.

I went into 2009 with good feelings and great ambitions and have been stepped on and squashed like a damn bug! actually, like the bug pictured below!

<----gross huh?

Isn't there a limitation on how many horrible and trying things can happen to a certain family? I know, I know - that would be a perfect world or a good situation and result in never learning from mistakes or troubles one might endure. But seriously, when do things turn around? How much does one person get tested before they move onto the next person.

Okay, deep breath. I will start a new mantra...things will get better, things will get better, things will get better.

I have to remember that sometimes things happen for a reason even if they suck rotten eggs! Things will get better and I will get answers (hopefully).

and amazingly, step is only 5 percent of the problem right now!

Every day I pass this church

on my way to work. They have a board that they put messages on. The latest one was:

those that gossip to you will be a gossip of you

Are you serious? What a crock! I am sorry, but I do not believe that for one minute from my own personal experience. Yes, maybe in some cases it could be true. Shit, I gossip at times to my friends, but I am not one to gossip about them to anyone. Even my closest friends don't know the secrets the others share to me.

Granted, in all honesty, I don't gossip too much because it annoys me when gossip is spread with ill intentions...

but anyways, I had to get that off my chest. Been thinking for a week about posting about this and saying what a bunch of malarkey it was. Just because you gossip to someone doesn't mean you will gossip about that person to someone else...bunch of b.....s....!

Holiday Wishes

Merry Christmas everyone! Or if you celebrate any other holiday that is during this time, I wish you the good will in those times! May peace and love embrace you!

Oh, and of course - have a Happy New Year! I hope 2009 brings many changes for the better!
