Hello Blog World

did you think i'd fallen off the planet? gotten stuck in quick sand? perhaps been flushed down the toilet?

those would be really awful fates wouldn't they?!

none of those things happened. after dad died i just needed some time to think, to breath, to do a lot of crying. i focused a little more on my family and just generally tried to get through the day. things are getting better. i usually cry just once a day now, which is a big improvement. i feel more like me. different, but closer to the same. does that even make sense? anywho- i decided it might be time to come back to blogging (irregularly of course) because i really have missed it. so you'll be seeing me more often around here. yay!

mixed feelings

is anyone else feeling a titch bipolar about the final harry potter movie coming out? i'm freaking psyched to see it one minute and then crying (don't judge me) about the end of an era the next. mr. joseph and i are seeing it the day before the premiere with some friends. i'm making wands at the moment. shirts and accessories are being considered.

yesterday was hard. i cried quite a bit. i snuggled boog and mr. joseph and that helped. talking to mom helped distract me a lot. the impending az trip also distracted. the end.

my friends are the coolest.

for seriously peeps. this little beauty came to live with me last night. i'm still sort of in shock. i'm so grateful and so excited it's a little unreal. thank you thank you!
