The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

With the new outlook on life has come a new experience. I am doing more and more things for myself these days and I am finding that I am loving it.



I went to Trader Joe's today and was completely impressed by the quality of their items. It was amazing! I am so used to having my groceries delivered that it has been ages since I have actually gone food shopping.



I may have gone a bit overboard but dam.......



I may even cook tonight!

So I finally caved to peer pressure and joined Facebook.



No you cannot have the link - I like my life the way I like my food - seperate and not touching.



(I still think that VR is WAYYYYYYYYY better)

I sent my little one off to Kindergarten today.



We walked up to the building as the principal was calling the children into the APR (all purpose room). She turned to me, waved and simply said "Bye mama - see you later". Then she walked into the building.



I was so proud I had a complete breakdown..... I just stood there taking it all in. All around me were parents with their kids - some were just as brave as mine while others were screaming their heads off...



I swear it was not this bad for me when I brought her to preschool - is this normal? For it to get worse I mean? I hope not or they are going to have to hospitalize me when she goes to college....



*sigh*



She is growing up so fast!

nope... It doesn't get better. I have one in kindergarten and one in college. You miss them every day. The good part is that they will come home every day and blow your mind with all the amazing things they have learned.

Pipa is in the 1st grade now and she's been going to school since she was 3. It really wasn't too hard on me 'cause we took it kinda slow; eased ourselves into it. Still, I'm torn: sometimes I want to snatch her up and refuse to let her grow up, but then sometimes I'm so amazed by all the things she does and can't wait to see what other wonderful things she will accomplish. Oh, the joys of being a parent!!

Today is a crossroad day for me. I have received the information that I was waiting on.



The road ahead of me now has two clear paths. I know which one I am choosing. It is sad moment. It is one of the first times in my life that I did not get the outcome that I wanted.



It is ok though - new challenges lie ahead and I will meet them.

I believe in you. I've had my fair share of crossroad moments too. You'll be fine and you'll come out even better. I know it.

Crossroads are a good thing. A little change in direction helps at times. And challenges are what we need, too.

*hugs* you will do well :)

not to be cliche (promise) but like the Rolling Stones say...



You can't always get what you want.....but if you try sometimes, you get what you need.



I'm sure you'll do fine with whatever it is, and it will turn out to be spectacular!
