Going back to school?

Yep, I'm trying to anyway. If not this semester definitely in the spring. BUT since I didn't decide this wonderful thing before summer, I'm too late to apply for a Pell Grant. "Hello student loans!!" Because you know, Davey won't just put up $1500 dollars for a semester of school...oh no...."we're saving for a house." Well here's a news flash, dude: It would be easier to get a house if one of us decided to continue our education and be a GROWN UP! (yeah and that was real grown up of me) :P I'm just "itchin" as Silvia says. :)
No really. I NEED to go to school. I need to know that I can do it that I have something to fall back on --WE have something to fall back on should something happen to our store or whatever. No worries, it's doing great-just sounds like a good excuse for going to school. And going to school is a good excuse to get me writing again. I loved to write once, and then I had kids and a billion things to keep me busy other than pens and paper. I didnt do as well as i should have in high school because i am a dreamer. My mind was always in a story---not a book, mind you--not ALWAYS anyhow--- a story-- that i was mad about. Mad that I couldn't write it right then because Ms. so-n-so would think I was writing notes and not paying attention. As if I would pay attention! HA! Yes I got mad because I knew I would forget the story. And you see I'm a rambler I need something to keep my mind occupied so I don't ramble through my days like I am now. I have all these excuses for going back to school....maybe it'll make me sane. And it will cut back some of the pain of seeing my son turn 5 years old in 3 months and 3 days and going to preschool and oh geez....go to school or have another kid? Well lets see I'm 23 and another kid would mean no going to school probably until I'm 30!!! 30?!?! I don't think so! So if you took the time to read this:
"SUCKER" !!!
*muah* leave me a comment. :)

No really I am going back to school, before long. :P I am.

Crazy Me!!!

Funny category, huh? "Art and Photography" okay, it's 3:33 am!! I just got my belly-button peirced around 1 am and i guess i have some kind of weird adrenaline rush because of all the fun!! maybe i'm just nuts...anyway! We went out with Beth for her birthday, had lots of fun, took a few really cute pictures which I'll be posting here and there, then went to Trilogy because we had joked/talked some about getting piercings and tattoos and stuff and i have been wanting to do more lately....so i said lets go for it! Everyone was up to it. sooo in honor of Beth's birthday, I did something my dad will have a freaking cow over. hahaha I got my navel pierced and I love it! I think I woulda gotten a tattoo, if we had the time and I knew what I wanted...but this was much faster, less healing time, and less permanent. I just chopped my hair off Wednesday too! I do this about once every 3 years...cut my hair, pierce something, decide I'm gonna do what I wanna do for o...

Davin or Ellie?

Which will it be?! lol--you're all just gonna have to wait because its a SURPRISE!! :) I'm having a really really hard time coming up with a good name for a little girl--you know, just in case. But we already know a little boy will be Davin!!(like Gavin with a D) possibly spelled Daven ... We've known that since Genevieve was on the way. :) I'm thinking I kinda like Davyn for a girl, too---of course with the different spelling. But baby's daddy likes Elenore....or Ellie. I really do like it too. (see the cd at the bottom of the blog) David, Genevieve, and Elenore. lol (Trip, Genna-Clair, and  Ellie  or  Davin ) We also kinda sorta like Miriam...but we would just call her Miriam, NO NIC-NAME. lol Let's cross our fingers for a boy, shall we?! lol 18 weeks and counting! Currently listening: Elenore: 30 Years of Rock 'n Roll By The Turtles Release date: 26 September, 1995

Reviving the Writer

... Deciding to revive a once-lost memory is intimidating. The will to bare your thoughts, sometimes unedited, for public viewing, conjures images of hiding behind my mother's dress at church -just to get a good peek at things before edging into view.  If only writing gave us at least that safety net.  A conversation with a friend inspired this post, a decade after shutting down and retreating to small blurbs on social media.  I asked why she hasn't 'written that book.' You know, when judging others, you're just asking to be judged yourself--and our toughest judge typically is our own inner voice. Henceforth, I have determined that on this day, in order to practice what I speak, in absolute protest against my tendency to imposter syndrome, I'll be writing again.  It isn't that I stopped communicating but I stopped sharing my thoughts so openly.  I'll update the happenings of the past decade and plan a fresh look to this space.  Everchanging, Kristen
