After a 3 year relationship ended due to my own wants I had the hardiest time falling asleep before 2 am, I wrote it off as insomnia. Until I realized that when there was someone else in bed wit me I was able to drift off almost immediately. It has to be an unconscious comfort thing. I hope to be able to get over it some day soon. Being alone is a part of life and I cant freak out about it.

How I did it: I applied online months before the place opened and forgot about it. Two months later a month into my active job search as my previous job had closed I get a call back. I have been working at Rocks on the river for one month and love it. I had felt tied down at my last job for over three years because of my loyalty and now I realize I need to live for myself not anyone else. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Kept my chin up, and found out what i had to do and made an effort to do so. It could always be worse so be thankful for everything you have in life compared to the less fortunate. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Went to Virginia for Nathans 23rd birthday. Did not think it would snow in March. Saw snow fall for the first time & almost skid off the road in the car. Scary experience. Read how I did it…

I got the gemini symbol on my foot in July for my friends birthday and since have wanted another. I can not make up my mind on what I want, it took me forever to decide last time. This past Sunday I had several friends get tattoos and one even offered to pay for mine. Of course the majority of them got the world family in hebrew, one got family in gaelic, and the last the celtic unity symbol behind her ear. The family in herbrew had to have been a shot gun choice and I dont want to regret my decision. I know I want a small one behind my neck or on my ribs. At one time I want faith in cursive across my wrist, and now I realize how incredibly stupid that was.
I take advantage of the beautiful things around me each day. God made wonders for us and we overlook them as we rush threw life. I want to quit literally “stop and smell the roses”.
