I want crazy!

If you've read more than 3 of my posts you know I have had a very...different... life than most. While I could spend days telling you my whole story, praising the good things and complaining about the bad, I won't. I find it much more entertaining as a writer and a reader to give snippets here and there. That way you the reader will form a truer vision of me than I could give with all the words in the world. They say there are two sides to every story and the truth is in the middle, so I'll give you part of my story and hope you find the truth in it.

I never made the "right" choices. I had my own drum, guitar, bass, tambourine, and vocalist. I've done stuff I'm not so proud of, but I'll claim it til the day I die. For all the good and the bad my life wouldn't be what it is today if I made even one decision differently.

I have to take a minute and thank my Mom for raising me the way she did. I have more faith in myself then most people twice my age. I was never afraid to try anything or go anywhere, because I knew I could take care of myself. Thank you Lady. 

In the four years between graduating High school and marrying the love of my life I did...a lot. I moved 6 times literally across the world and back. I'll never forget I was sitting on a shuttle bus traveling from one terminal to another in Phoenix and I seriously considered not getting on my connecting flight. I was honestly going to just take off alone in an unknown city and start over. Some days I really wonder how that would have turned out. I'm glad I didn't do it, but if I were to get a second life I would definitely try it. 

I am married now and we have a beautiful little girl. There is such a pressure in being a wife and Mom. I can't imagine how hard it is to be a single parent, and I pray every day that I will never find out. I wake up and go to sleep every day knowing I have two lives in my hands that I need to take care of. I know I can do it though. I taught my husband a saying that I have lived by for as long as I can remember, -It'll be o.k, because it has to be-. No matter what life throws at us we know we can handle it strictly because we have no other options. So far we've made everything work out just fine, and, honestly I couldn't be more proud of us.

Stay Tuned
