....not today....


 There are just some days that NOT TODAY is the theme.  I've found they are when everyone seems to be demanding something of me.  Work.  Family.  The world in general demanding patience from me.  Today was one of those days.  Did it end?  No.  Things did not resolve.....to be continued....UGH!  Not my favorite phrase after a day like today.

So, how do I shake it off ?  Great, now I have Taylor Swift running in my head.  It's a hard one cause I tend to focus on something until it's done and resolved.  So I know my sleep won't be good tonight.  Hoping I get the chance to connect with a someone special tonight so that I can have the happy rush in.  

Peace ... out!

....aaannnnddd.....she's back! Yet again....

 It has been 2.5 years since my last post.  I've been in and around SL but not doing much of anything, and it showed.  I had lost interest, wasn't styling or exploring.  I decided to put my "big girl panties" on and kick myself to get out of my comfort zone.  Go meet people.  Take photos.  Strike up conversations.  

When I did get back out and hit live music venues, I was pleasantly surprised that people talked.  Yea, that happens when you aren't alone all the time!  The first person to chat with me mentioned the lyrics that are in my profile, which are by Stevie Nicks, an all time favorite.  Landslide is one of my very favorite songs ever.  It's simply beautiful.  The lyrics?  Same.  Then in 2010 my first life fell apart and the lyrics took on a very personal meaning. I wasn't sure I'd make it through sometimes and wondered if I could pull myself up.  I did.  I'm strong.  I'm a survivor.  

And the song remains my favorite song to this day and elicits a strong emotional response.  The last time I heard someone play it live (last week) I sobbed like a baby and had to talk to them about how much I loved that song and their rendition was beautiful.  I love the song.  The fact that it ALWAYS makes me cry isn't a bad thing.  It's a testament to the woman who wrote it from her soul.  It's touched mine deeply.  For that alone, I'll always love Stevie.
