Hello tech


I'm wondering if this will actually work. I'm typing this from my new phone. Tech. Is kinda crazy. Maybe I'm getting too old for all this fab. Stuff but it's still kinda cool. I use to love all this tech but now I like to stick to stuff that's familiar. gots to move forward with the world though. Trying to keep up. thanks dahling for keeping me hip.

few things i like

a few things im loving for awhile now but i failed to mention it:
-im totally in love with MAD MEN. i love every bit of it. the first season was hooking with the 2 beautiful men in them (Don Draper & Sterling Cooper in the series played by Jon Hamm & John
Slattery) & the love of those guys as well as the series continues. These men not only look
beautiful they play their characters so well its mind boggling. ive caught upto whats going on now in season 3 & it keeps getting better.











-i like this song Keri hilson Knock You Down
& this one too Down Down by my very own Jay Sean
-i can not beleive that this indian dude has made it here on mtv-thats my man from back in the day.

-i love this cute animated movie Coraline
i wanted to get some sort of doll for this movie (very hard to find here in the usa) & then we were in barcelona & i found coraline wearing her orange pjs doll with the whole head that twists & falls off (lol)
love it. the movie is fabulous!
& this picture is my most fav. wallpaper on my laptops screen. hottness & cuteness all at the same time. love it!

-cant wait to watch coco before chanel-a french film with audrey tautou (another fav of mine).
thats all for now.

stuff again

ive had sad 2 days. why for a few reasons i may know that may add up & some i cant quite put my finger on. nontheless i am sad & i feel like something is going to happen.
i can feel it in the air.

also-i miss him alot. sometimes when i talk to him after awhile i get upset & the other day i actually cried in front of my mom talking to him on the phone. i made my mom cry too as i usually never cry infront of her. it is what it is like they say.
it really really sucks though!

meanwhile ive been cleaning & organizing things in the house from the inside out. im talking about me walking over to my linen closet which i have been putting off for over 2 years now & organizing it & folding even the fitted sheets properly with the sheet sets all folded up along with the pillowcases & all lined up on the shelves. yes you can fold fitted sheets perfectly.
all blankets & even towels are in the linen closet as its meant to be. im done with all of it but need to add some new hand towels to the shelf along with some tags. yup im doing that too.
i went out to target & bought new luxurious plush body towels as they were on sale to keep the stock up in there. spent 2 hours roaming around there after i left work early. thats not all i bought ofcourse.
got them home, washed & dried them & folded them up all perfect in there. its so exciting to see it all lined up in there like that.
in no means is my linen closet like martha stewarts in her book (which i know she gets help to do) but from what its looked like before-its marvelous. ill take pictures when its all done.
im looking at the furniture & stuff in the lounge (the formal room) & so much needs to be done once again as i find it too loungy.
i know that its not like we have so many people that come and hang out but i think it needs a serious change. hmmm a project to look at.
so dahling had bought a four poster queen bed from some auction that was real good quality but the color was yuck. i dreamt of it being black. i saw it just transforming the other guest room into a cool spare room.
3 nites ago we grabbed 2 paint brushes & a small can of laquered black paint & went about town on the bed without taking it apart. i mean it came out wonderful. what a transformation black can make.
will take pics of that too once its all done up. im trying to use things around the house to give its last touches to the room but that may take a bit. ok enough of the home decor subject. can you tell im trying to avoid feelings of crap by talking about all this? LOL.

how is it that there are some relationships where one can say the craziest things to one another & be mean & yucky & still come back to one another after all that. im certain people have found this to happen to them with some relationship or another in their lives where you dont even know youre in this type of hurtful cycle untill way later or sometimes never.
what is it that makes you come back for more? i wonder.
is it that youve shared time with this other person that makes you feel like you have a connection from the past that you want rekindled? (this doesnt just have to do with lovers relationships but all sorts). is it the fact that you are human & you long to not want to be alone. & that is hard to accept. i just dont know what it is.
what makes you stay when your world falls apart? what makes you try one more time when it's not in your heart at the end of your rope when you can't find any hope you still look at him and say I just can't walk away tell me what makes you stay (from hope floats soundtrack back in the day-just reminded me of it)

& then on that alone subject:
i envy those that know how to live alone & that do it well. & my regards to those that get the chance to do it & go for it. one time or another we all wanted to seperate at difficult times & rather wished we can be just left alone. but if it were to happen can we just do that?
i personally find that its hard living on your own. i guess its because ive never done it before. but im certain that it can be done. humans are so flexible like that after some time.
its funny how in america children are taught to be so independent as soon as possible. from them learning to feed themselves to potty training to sleeping in their own beds. i mean my daughter was walking (really fast too at 9 months-what te heck)
its a lovely concept as we all came alone & will die alone but really is it something everyone has to do?
i dont know. i was under my parents roof & then underneath the same roof as my husbands right after that & to be quite honest its not bad this way. i wish i had my college life but again i think even then you have pals around so youre not really alone.
ok enough of this too. what is up with me?
im going to bed.
more interesting & simple topics coming soon. sorry about this rant.

all the things that make me sad

-death of a parent
-abortions
-love less marriage
-leave it to beaver (the old tv show-i know its weird)
-missed telephone calls on my cell from unknown numbers
-siblings fighting
-lovers quarrels
-misunderstandings
-a full moon
-celine dion
-some country music
-child abuse of any sort
-love
-seperated family members
-motherless children
-rich people
-sad desi songs
-symphony chocolate bars
-red roses
-winter
-some photos
you ever feel like youre getting punished for something you did to someone else & now its coming back to you from somewhere else? how hard is that to handle & how sad it is. at the end karma is just sucky. & you have to stick it out cuz you got no choice.
darn.
how do you fix a foul mood when you were asking for it?
how do you know when you will be forgiven for the sins you took part in?
or when the misery will end?
i cant stand feeling like crap or hating peoples attitudes.
too much drama happens even when you think you have the cartoon or comedy station on. how did the channels change?
when was the remote control of my life overtaken?
its sad that people will never stop hating on one another.
ahhhh
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

i just remembered how much i used to love country music & why.
faith hill
shania twain
leaan rimes-these ladies were awesomeeeeeeee & their songs still are.

song stuck in my head from an old cd

that i cant seem to get out of my head. its perfectly worded & sung. so simple yet beautifully compared.

faith hills lovely song.

The eagle wants a canyon
And a place where he can rest his wings a while
The drifter wants a freight train
That will carry him another hundred miles
The lion's only lookin' for something he can sink his teeth into
Oh and i want you
The devil wants a fella
With a weakness he can wrap his arms around
The champion wants a challenger
Who just might have the strength to take him down
The river wants an ocean to run towards
And pour its heart into
Oh and i want you
Oh, every time that i'm around you
Oh, i'm on fire when we touch
Oh, when i hold you boy
You know I can't get close enough
Yes i want you
I could cry and say i need you
Tell you that i die when you're not here
I could lie and say i love you
Pour a little poison in your ear
But all i'm gonna give you is
Nothing but the bare and naked truth
Baby i want you
Baby i want you

so many things

ive been going thru my scrapbook room & there are so many projects in there that remain incomplete. its kinda crazy how i need to either toss it all or finish it. the scrapbooks remain complete from before but this new stuff keeps adding up. ive reduced my supplies but its not as little as id like it. i have this book where youre suppose to fill in the stuff about your life. i need to get on that too.
the fun stuff of the day: ms. s going thru my old pictures. she asked where am i in the pic. & i said you werent born yet. god didnt make you yet. after repeating all this back & forth, she gave me her last word, im sorry i wasnt in the picture, ill be in them later momma. i was in your belly.
i just smiled.
albums & pics are so worth saving & organizing for moments like this.

portugal











we are all counting days to come home. this was a long trip. its getting more calm now. boy are we going to need time away from one another. lol. its been comfy here in lisbon as 5 star hotels make it that way. i like it here as i thought i would. the metro is everywhere so its fine getting around here but my feet hurt from all the walking. and i dont have too many options with my shoes as i dumped many of them in the first few towns to downsize. so im ready to get a lovely pedicure as soon as i return. rest too shall be wonderful on my own bed.
lisbon is a smaller version of the other cities combined but its beauty lies in the tiny winding streets & the everyday living seen in cafes & little shops all over. the beauty really is in the old towns that are still around with the pink & yellow painted buildings with the terracotta tiled roofs that can be seen from up above next to the sea. its a nice sight to see. more a little later as ms. s has turned into a crazy child most of the times. one cant blame her as she is only 3 and misses her toys and nc. pictures soon to come in a few days.
