Raspberry Sorbet and a Broken Pelvis

Do I care that there is a lot of Sugar? Nope! Is it delicious, yup! I will admit that my new obsession is Haagen-Dazs Raspberry Sorbet. Delish.

My pelvis is beyond messed up. It's overly annoying. I never thought I would feel this pain ever again. It's so foreign yet so familiar.

Oh, and these stupid red-lights in this city are going to be the death of me. I'm sick of them. All day that's all I've come across. I'm so over driving.

Rants ... gotta love em'!

The Love of My Life

I found the love of my life.
1. No pressure under any circumstance.
2. He gives me Eskimo kisses after we kiss.
3. He gives me a kiss on the cheek every time I see him and every time he goes.
4. He is dedicated, motivated and strong.
5. He is so fancy and always looks his best.
6. He always smells good.
7. He gives me butterflies.
8. He makes me smile all the time.
9. He loves me for me, he compliments me and he makes sure I know that I'm beautiful.
10. He is very future-oriented.

I always wondered when people said, "I know he's the one." How they knew. I knew the very first date, Denny's for pancakes! :) He ordered a salad with mayo. I just giggled. We talked about the most serious of things, on the first date. I LOVE that. Being forward and straight is how I like it. Not only is he forward and straight but he does it with a smile, a loving smile. Religion, Politics, Children, Education, and well Life in general we see eye to eye. How important is that? I cannot tell you in words how much I love him. There aren't enough of them.

He leaves for basic on the 3rd of October. It's beyond heart breaking. I love him though, and I know this is a good thing. I support him 152% with it and always will. It's just so hard when you find some stability in your life and all of a sudden it will be gone for four months. Ugh, how I'll do it is beyond me. The good thing is, I get to work on me. Not only with school but with working out, volunteering and making sure I know what I want in my future and why ... and when :)

If you love someone you would be willing to give up everything for them, but if they loved you back they’d never ask you to.

A feeling that was a great refresher!

I'm not here to brag, okay ... maybe just a little. 

Today in my Social Work Practice II course we were talking about behavioral plans for families with children. I stated how a plan is used at my work, confidentially. (Don't worry you co-workers)  And how I could see it being used in family settings. The professor stated how it is too complex and how some parents wouldn't follow through because of the complexity. I said, okay, I can see that but at the same time if they were older children I can see it really working well. 

One of my colleagues then added, well if the mom has: two, three, or even four children and works and goes to school she won't want to deal with it. I was fuming. Okay, most of you know how I can get when I feel like I have a valid statement and someone goes above me to try and prove me wrong. At the end of class my professor pulls me aside and gives me some knuckles and is just laughing. I said, "What? Did I do something wrong? What's so funny." He continued to laugh for a minute before he said, "You're just funny." I said, "Why because I stand up for myself and say what I believe" He said, "Yes, but it's a good thing!" 

Come on! If you want your children to learn and have better behavioral patterns you're going to do the work it takes to encourage great behavior from your children. 

There are 18 more days until he leaves and I feel my heart breaking as the minutes pass. It's good for him and for our future, but it still leaves me a little sad. I need to put some positive quotes up and look on the bright side, but it's so difficult.

Trying so hard to give up.

I got into an accident last Saturday (the 27th of August) and since then my life has gone down-hill. I seem to make a step forward then make five steps back. Then, it repeats. I really have a huge desire to live life but it's hard right now and I haven't been in this funk for quite some time. It seems very foreign, yet like a good friend I haven't seen for a while. Good thing that life goes on. 

And it hurts to see all my ex's so happy. I'm not saying I'm not happy in my relationship but I feel like they didn't try as hard for me. Yeah, definitely a confidence booster! :) And he's leaving in 27 days, what a drag. I usually love countdowns, but I really hate this one!
