new experiences
Unexpectedly having Vance and Mary along for fireworks with Taylor and I. A wonderful show in Delphi--way more than I ever would have expected from that little town. Very peaceful, little traffic, lots of families.
Hearing that Kelsey enjoyed her 4th with her friend Jessica and her family. --Being a flexible enough mom that I let my daughter spend a holiday away from home with someone else's family.
A phone call from jones.
My sister living alone for the first time in her life. Knowing that she is a strong woman who can overcome.
Tracie gettin her sexy on----FINALLY!! I knew she could dance and flirt, Lisa's next ;)
Getting a Stapleton's number!!! Even if it goes through the wash, I'm still the envie of many girls!! Stapleton men are yummmmy.
C. D. for our connection, it is wonderful and I'm thankful to have it for how ever long. His chocolaty brown eyes that just make me melt.
Erika and Gail for laughing with me, dancing with me, flirting with me. The wonderful sisterly bond they share that I know so well.
Getting introduced to life at a strip club with Erika and Gail---sooooooo much fun. Yeah for boobies ;)
Being comfortable with being the center of attention when I want it. Being comfortable being a wallflower when I want it.
My bravery in dancing with people I don't know, and flirting with sexy young bartenders ;) --Marshall who keeps his badge in his pants. (he's married with a child, darn)
The unexpected positive responses I get when I flirt with the intention of simply getting a smile or laugh from someone.
Revisiting 909 N 10th street with Vance. Ditching Mary and giggling so hard we had to stop walking doubled over for a minute. The quiet and solitude of those few moments when our laughter was the only sound heard, at 4 a.m. the night was ours and ours alone.
Yelling the phrase "drunk man walking" while walking out of the bar as it applied to Vance teetering to the car after an evening out with Mary and I. Getting flipped off over his shoulder without even so much as a glance from him--priceless;)
Focusing on and asking for new people in my life and getting them right away, with gusto!!!
Focusing on and asking for more adventure in my life and getting it in all forms!
Accepting that this is the way my life is right now and going with the adventurous flow. Hearing myself tell people, with a smile, this is the way my weekends have been, I never know what's going to happen when I leave the house Friday night but lately it's been an incredible ride.
A phone call from my new friend Jesse, a nice conversation with him, lots of laughter, and silly mistakes.
A nice afternoon at my mom's for Lisa's birthday celebration. Conversation with my grandma about Hawaii. Playing with Kyleigh and D.J., I love hearing them talk and laugh! Superman flip flops and band-aids, green dress up shoes, and all the other fun things. Mashed potatoes, chicken-n-noodles, corn on the cob, green beans, deviled eggs, and dessert!
Knowing that this will be my last blog for a couple of weeks because I'LL BE IN HAWAII !!!!!!!
Looking forward to alone time with my kids, some adventure, some rest, good food, lovely soft ocean air, toes in the sand, salt on my skin, sun shine----tank tops and flip flops if you got em, no shoes, no shirt, no problem.
All the phone calls tonight wishing us a lovely safe trip.
You my volcano you ;)
Aloha
