Random Fact

OK. Anyone who truly knows me, knows this about me......

When I hear or see someone sneeze, I walk in the other direction, hold my breath, or.... if I can't get away.... (lol), I just discretely protect my face (while holding my breath). Well.... here's the thing. This behavior stemmed from when I was a little girl, and I saw this exact photo in the Encyclopedia.....

Here's a real fact about a sneeze: A Sneeze travels out of your mouth at over 100 miles (161 km) an hour.


Why am I bringing this up now? lol!!!!!

Well, of all people - I was sneezed upon at the Phila Horse Track on Saturday. There was a gentleman standing behind me while we were admiring the horses. Well, he had to sneeze right after taking a huge gulp from his bottle of beer (ewww). Suddenly, I hear the sneeze. THEN, I feel it. YUCK! I look at the back of my legs, and the back of my skirt... and I was soaked with an icky beer sneeze. I look to my left, and there's my son, wiping sneeze from his hair. LMAO! It was just plain awful.

The man apologized. And, I moved on. But, it was just so gross......

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Thoughts on Relationships

I think communication is HUGE. It's everything. It's the key that will open ALL the doors.

Intimacy
Trust
Playfulness

Hubby and I. We've been seeing a Counselor. I dread it. Why? Well, it's brought so much "crap" to the surface. It's been rather painful at times. It's not fun, it's not easy. It's even caused some major blowout fights. It's draining, and it's a lot of work, and a lot of being honest. HOWEVER.... IT'S WORKING!!!!!!!!!! :)

A note about relationships... Take the time to make it right. If you love someone... really love them, do what it takes. We are. And we both feel and see the difference.

I made an observation over the weekend. My sweetness and I were CLOSE. More than just on a physical level. We laughed. We played. We enjoyed each other so much. It was so awesome. It was precious. We had a nice weekend. WE LAUGHED...... I honestly believe that all the work we've been putting in, is paying off. It's great. My husband "gets me". I "get him". It's so refreshing. It's so awesome. And now, I feel the results of change. I know he does too.

So... there's my ramble for today. For now. And I feel good. I feel loved. And, my heart sings a happy tune. Life is good. And I will try to live... ONE DAY AT A TIME.

xo!

I've been thinking.

I sometimes think that I should make this blog private. If I did, I could write ANYTHING... I can pour my heart out if I want. I can write without being cautious. Sexy stuff..... my deepest thoughts and feelings...anything....HOWEVER, by keeping this open to "anyone", I think about how I might bring a smile to someones face. Maybe others can relate to me. Maybe, I am a soft place to land.... for a moment or two. I wonder....

So, I am keeping this Blog public, for now. I'll keep posting. Maybe I've inspired someone. Who knows I can wish I have, or will. Maybe people end up here, and think I'm some sort of a fruitcake. lol..... maybe they think I'm OK, and they enjoy my blog.... maybe I can bring cheer... or hope..... *shrugs.

Just a thought. I do struggle with it sometimes.....:)

But when I laugh, and I might make someone else laugh... I'm happy... after all.......Laughter, it's the best medicine. In most cases in life.

Well, my little pumpkin woke me up at 4:00 a.m.............. She was not feeling good. SO, I sat with her. And sat with her... and sat with her.....Then, she threw up, and felt like a million bucks. lol. Poor baby. As for me, well... I am so sleepy! I couldn't get back to sleep. When I went into the bedroom, I saw that there was only about an hour left, before I had to get up. SO, of course I tossed and turned. And, everything that I could ever think of, I thought of. It was exhausting. LOL! :)
Now, I sit here all sorts of sleepy eyed. Is it 5:00 yet?

On the bright side.. (there's always a bright side) This is the LAST week of regular hours. FLEX time begins next week!!! YIPPIE! 1/2 day Fridays!!!! I am so excited! It doesn't take much for me to get excited..... I'm easy! I just love flex time. And, this year coming in at 9:00 will work out well. Even if it means I have to stay until 4:30. I could use a few more minutes to get ready in the morning. :)

Yesterday was nice. Peaceful. Fun. Cold, but sunny. I just wish I got more accomplished. I really enjoyed shopping with the kids. It was fun. They are becoming so grown up! *sigh ....my babies....

Oops! I better get to work!!!!!!!!!!!!! More later. :)
