It's The Difference That Makes It

No, I'm not perfect or a genius but sometimes I think I should have been an English major. Lately, it has been getting harder and harder to keep from correcting people on Facebook. There IS a difference between certain words and it looks ridiculous to use the wrong word. For example, there was a sign on the road that said, "Road work TELL Sunday". Tell Sunday? What are you going to tell Sunday and how does that have anything to do with road work? How embarrassing. Then there is a comment on Facebook: I've been here sense noon! Sense noon, huh? What do you sense about it? And the best one: I love you to. You love me to where? I just love how innocent people are when they either can't spell the correct one, really don't know the difference, or just don't care. It's just too bad it makes them look silly.

Stolen Words

I worry, I wonder all the time, why worry?
It's killing me, forget about it
I whisper, remember what she did, don't miss her
Set me free, she won't allow it
Angry and gone
And the list goes on and on
I just want to be ok, be ok, be ok
I just want to feel today, feel today, feel today
I just want to feel something today
Open me up and you will see
I'm a gallery of broken hearts
I'm beyond repair, let me be
And give me backmy broken parts
I just want to know today, know today, know today
I just want to know something today
I just want to know today, know today, know today
Know that maybe I will be ok
Just give me back my pieces
Just give them back to me please
Just give me back my pieces
And let me hold my broken parts
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot see at all
You keep crying, crying, crying
Till you cannot breathe at all
What do you do when you’re alone?
What do you do when no one’s home?
What do you do when you’re alone?
Out of control,
Now on your own
Never waking up
The alarm is broken
Running in a dream
and it’s like slow motion
Alone
Is there anyone out there?
Is there anyone now?
All I needare the details
Just to find a way out
You can’t break away what you cannot change
You can’t break away
You can’t break away what you cannot change
You can’t break away

I am Me

Sometimes it is hard to not compare yourself to the people around you and the people you grew up with. It's really easy to be negative and most people compare others at their best with you are your worst. I was just reading some blogs and feeling really depressed because they were doing things I always wanted to do but didn't, or they have things I always wanted. So this blog is a reminder to me that just because life isn't how I pictured it doesn't mean it's bad. Some people have careers, even the careers I always thought I would have at this age. But I have Kyler. I am a mom and I love it. Some mom's have clean houses. I have a job, and not a lot of energy. I love my job and love helping support my family. Some mom's have their family on good schedules. I have a wonderful husband who not only supports our family but also cooks dinner. Which means we go by his schedule, which varies depending on the day. I don't have to have the picture perfect life or life I always pictured to be happy about how my life is. The funny thing about this is realizing I was picturing my life all wrong. 48 hour days, at least. Going to work, cleaning the house, making dinner, scriptures and prayers, bath time and bed by 830 so I can still have time to talk to my husband before getting 8 full hours of sleep so I could wake up in time to make my families breakfast and lunch, get everyone all perfect and ready and go to work again. YEAH RIGHT!! So I didn't go back to school? I married a wonderful man and started my family. So my baby doesn't have a perfect schedule and all the extra stuff I thought i'd do with my kids. But he is happy and healthy and will always have my love. Life is never how We plan it to be. Live for today, you never know what tomorrow brings.
