Didja miss me?

Well, of course you did. How could you go on without my blog to read? I know it was har, but I'm back. I needed to take a break...to clear my head...and perhaps I needed to gain some perspective on my life. There are times when my writing clears my mind, the thoughts on paper are so easy to disipher, but there are also times when what I think and what I write get muttled. Life got kinda fuzzy around the edges there for awhile, and I found that I was not myself, well I was not the self that I have worked so hard to become. There was no big turning point...in order for that to happen I had to be on the wrong path. It was not so much that as it was that I was confused. Geez...look at me, all kinds of philosophical...all I'm saying is that I was gone, but now I'm back. The past is the past and there is no need to dwell on it. That said...on to more recent events.

First...Joey. Joey is one of the best things that has ever happened to me in my life. For the first time I am with someone who is afraid to lose me, who says that he loves me and means it, and who genuinly cares about me. In the past I have chosen guys who were less than ideal, but I do believe that this time I have done a fairly good job of it. You know when you go to the fair and there is that duck pond...the one where you pick a duck with a number on the bottom and you get a prize. You always have to do it more than once, and usually you get some crappy yo-yo or a poster of a random Mexican soap star, but sometimes you pick the duck that wins you a big furry pink monkey. Granted, that analogy only works for those of you who have always wanted a large stuffed pink monkey, which I must say I used to have. Now that I think about it, it may not have been a monkey...maybe it was a bear. He wore overalls, I remember that much. Anyways, there was a point. Look a puppy! I know I'm borderlined ADD...or maybe I'm just blonde. (Courtesy of Josh ~ A blind man walks in to a bar and sits down. He orders a drink and says "I've just heard the best blonde joke ever." The man behind the bar says "Sir, I'm blonde. The man to your left is blonde and about as tall as he is wide. The man to your right is blonde and looks like he could bench about 500lbs. Do you really want to tell that joke? The blind man pasuses and then replies "Hell no! I don't want to have to repeat it 50 times.") So Joey and I are doing well. Of course there haver been bumps along the way, but in general we are doing well. We are both puttting forth the needed amount of effort and we are both happy.

Next...Grandpa. He is sick again. The cancer is back and with a vengence. He is now on the radioactive chemo. We went to see him for Christmas, well we went to see both my granddparents. He looks ok. I wish there was more I could do to help. He can always use your prayers.

Last...I promise I'll get on here more.
