Today marks a very, very special day and one that will only happen once, in my lifetime.... It's 10/10/10. I'll be doing something special to commemorate it, something that will last at least for my lifetime. In fact, I'm doing it now, starting a blog, something I've been wanting to do for quite some time. My story is long and complex, therefore bits and pieces may come out here and there, admittedly it's juicy and filled with so much drama I'm saving it for my book that I'm writing !
To fill you in on the biggest parts of my life, first there's God, in whom I believe. Just simply believe. I will not claim any sort of perfection or holier than though attitude as I am a sinner and fall short in many many ways. However, like sands through the hour glass, these are the days of my life.
Secondly I'm a mommy. Yes, a real live mommy and just saying that or writing it gives me chills.....I'm blessed with a wonderful son we'll call Jellybean (came from the ultrasound pic.lol) who will turn TEN, yes TWO handfuls this month. Can hardly believe that one!! My second blessing is a daughter we'll call P-nut (again from ultrasound) and this one is working on becoming NINE in march. Once again pretty hard to swallow for the mommy but certainly my two favorite people on the earth!!! Amazing how special it is to be their mommy.
As for me, that's who I'm trying to find and hoping you'll join me on my journey. You see, I left myself way back, maybe around 16 or 17 yrs old. Became the girlfriend and then the wife of someone and that is all ending, ironically, this month...Our wedding anniversary would have been Oct 14th 2010 and it would have been 21 years. That being said, I'm 43 and really need to find ME! Who am I, where do I go from here, what great things lie in store for my next 21 yrs, and really, how do I embrace the new ME!!! Journey back to me is the name of a great blog I read, as well as 47 and starting over. That being said, following these blogs and others has been cathartic to me and truth be told they have had me laughing, crying, praying and so forth. Seems the folks blogging are getting something out of it or, hey, it wouldn't be so popular!
We'll get into more details later but for now get out and enjoy 10/10/10. Do something special for you, your family or randomly pick someone to help that may need it. In the end, Kindness does matter........
Wyndy! I'm so proud of how far you've come the past few years! You have been through SO much and you're making it out on top. What a story!
