Just a ticker..or two

Alpha Sigma Lambda!

So I have been invited for the past two years or so to join Golden Key International Honor Society. I have yet to join. On Tuesday I was invited once again to join Golden Key, I was also invited to join Alpha Sigma Lambda. On Wednesday I pledged to Alpha Sigma Lambda. I know this may not be exciting news to most, but hey I hardly ever have anything to celebrate and I think joining an Honor Society is something to be proud of. I have nothing else to say, just wanted to drop in and share a small bit of happiness in my life.

An idea...

I know I haven't posted here in a long while. I really haven't had anything new to say. So I thought I would make an entry. I hope you are all doing well. I am currently working on something, I am not sure how it is going to pan out, but hey, no one is ever sure about anything. I am currently working on a new story that I am writing. When I get the story completed I will most likely attempt to get it into ebook format since that is easier and since technology has been over taking physical books. If all goes as I hope, then I will most likely be creating a blog for that story, and for future stories/books. I am really, really excited about this idea, and I hope that I do not let it fizzle out like I have let so many other ideas and dreams fade away. Well, that's all I have to say for now, please let me know if you'd be interested in knowing what happens with my story and with the potential new blog.

I need a job

I need a job so freaking bad. I am getting so frustrated that I haven't even had an interview in ages. With my husband and I both out of work things are really bad. Every single thing we have besides car insurance is due within the next two weeks and they are all shut off notices because I am late on the payments. I need $500 to get those bills paid, and I just do not see that happening. I am so sick of being stressed and depressed about my life and my financial situation. I know times are tough for everyone, but damnit this sucks. I have been told that no one wants to hear my troubles, but frankly if you're going to read my blog, you're going to read what's on my mind. I live with this everyday, even when I put my fake smile on I am worrying in the back of my mind about the bills that I cannot pay. I hate having to fake a smile or a laugh just to appease others.

What would you like to see

What would you all like to see here at my blog? I have noticed that traffic has picked up but my comments have actually dropped off. I am guessing my blog had turned boring. I find myself not posting often as I feel I repeat myself over and over about boring topics in my life. So, as my readers I am asking you what topics would you like for me to discuss. Are there any questions you all would like to ask me?

Angel Wings

Do you ever wonder if only humans get angel wings? I like to believe that pets can go to heaven as well, if there is a heaven. 1 year ago today, June 21, 2010 our precious kitty Cosmo passed away. That was one of the worst days of my life. Some might say that he was just an animal or just a pet, but no he was so much more. He was a companion, he was a member of our family. Since we do not have children Cosmo always go the full extent of our attention. We planned things around what would be best for him. The house still feels so damn empty without him here. Sometimes we catch a glimpse of something of out the corner of our eye, and we think it's him. It's happened to both of us many times, it's almost a heart breaking feeling when reality hits..that no it wouldn't be him on top of the fridge..or no it's not him on the window sill. Today, I will try not to cry because I miss him so damn much, I will try to smile because I had the chance to love him for 10.5 years, and Matt had the chance to love him from a kitten, for 14 years. I remember on our wedding day when we came home..I squealed excitedly to Cosmo, "that I was finally his mommy for real." Yea he was my furbaby and I was his human momma. Our 6 year wedding anniversary was Saturday and Matt and I were laughing remembering how funny we thought it would have been to have him wear a little tux at our wedding, which we would have done if he wouldn't have been scared of crowds..or car sick as well lol. He had to stay at home and wait for our return. I could go on for hours about how much it meant to me and how much it hurt for him to leave us, but I like to think he is somewhere amazing watching down on us. I have never shared with anyone what went through my mind when I found him and realize he had left this Earth...and even a year later I cannot write those details. I doubt I will ever want to speak or type them. We have checked out many headstones for him and I think we have finally picked the one and have a good idea of what we want written on it. Whenever we get it ordered and get it set I am sure I will be posting pictures of that. I could post thousands of pictures and many videos of Cosmo but I selected just a few pictures to share. I am so thankful to have the videos and pictures to look at when I miss my boy.
