Blasphemous Memorial Day

Instead of thinking about soldiers & wars & sacrifice yesterday, I thought a lot about myself... sort of remembering me & what I like. I know it's self-centered... why do you think I didn't broadcast it to all the family I was around?! Also, my son's preschool marched in the parade & there was A LOT of waiting around for the line-up so my mind wondered. EXCUSE ME!

I like a quilt on my feet when they are hot. Something about the soft, cool fabric makes me smile.

I hate when a good book ends. Who knows when I will find the next one?? It could be DAYS!

I love taking pictures with my new sLr camera. But I'm afraid others won't like them b/c ultimately I would like to sell them.

I giggle inside when I hear my son laugh, like really belly-laugh.

I could veg-out in front of the tv constantly, if everyone would let me :)

I don't like being hot and sweating...so having a pool now is wonderful! I feel like I might actually enjoy summer this year.

I just realized I like "baby moons" & if you don't know what those are, don't feel left out. I didn't know either until Sunday.

When I was younger, I thought when I turned 30, I'd have my shit together.

Sometimes, I picture myself still in the Army, thinking about what I would be doing & I cringe. (worst time in my life!)

I like the veggies & dip at cook-outs more than anything else.

I sprinkle salt in my beer.

I want more tattoos but am nervous about my skin's reaction...last time I got a rash. Hope my dreams of having a sleeve won't be dashed.

I can't stand injustice, unfairness & people who betray me. Where's the trust?!

I like the drive-in movie theater better than watching movies at home.

I cannot take the feel of OFF on my skin for very long... I'd rather just go inside when the skeeters come out.

I love napping on rainy days the best... just wish I could figure out how to do that AND have the windows open...

I am starting to like BLACK coffee better than my mocha-choka-latte-yayas.

I have some color to my pastey-white skin for the 3rd time in my life... 1. Prom Senoir Year I tanned. 2. Worked at Fun Tan for awhile before I got married & earned free tanning. 3. Got a pool recently & spend all my time in it.

I like fountain pop better than any other.

And now Will wants milk so this is to be continued...

  1. Fountain pop is my fave! When I was young I used to try to figure out what year it would be when I was 30..40...and so on. Now I don't even want to THINK about it. Teehheee.

Day 11 Sitting with Myself 1 of 2. Length: 1 hour

 I own a small, predominantly online handcrafted jewelry business. I have been in business 3 years, 5 months & 2 days - exactly the same amount of time that I've been sober because I am an alcoholic. I'd like to think my success in both of those areas are directly linked. I stay sober by making jewelry. Successfully selling jewelry keeps me from drinking. But what if sales decrease or straight up end? Would I drink again? I drop new jewelry on my website every Friday at 9am est. It is 11:30 and I have zero sales. In all the years in business, that has NEVER happened on a drop day. It's depressing. I've watched sales steadily decline over the past few months, often daydreaming about the what if's and the why's. Is it our declining economy? Is it crappy designs? It is me? Recently it was brought to my attention that I offended and upset one of my long-time, consistently supportive customers. I noticed that she hadn't placed an order in several weeks. I was...
