Forever my girl

March 5, 2011 Written by Lisa

She’s forever my girl

.. to paraphrase Paula(r) Abdul.

Today marks the fifth anniversary of Lauren’s passing from the earth. Life truly isn’t the same without her. I wrote that last year and it will always be so. Many times I wish I could time travel back to when she was here even if just to hug her one last time. It’s not for me to know why her soul chose the path it did but I am beyond grateful to have had the experience of being in her life and having her be such a special part of mine.

Nothing will dim her light – not on earth and not in the Heavens. Love and miss you, La.

The End of Truthiness

December 8, 2010 Written by Lisa

So, here we are at Day 30 of Troofs. This one is hard and I’m not gonna pretend mine will even be half as awesome as The Gal’s entry but it will be from the my heart, so there’s that.

Here we go: Day 30 :: A letter to yourself. Tell yourself EVERYTHING you love about yourself.

Dear Lisa,

Know what? The very best thing about you is your tender heart. Remember Care Bears? How could you have been anything *but* TenderHeart Bear? You don’t hold grudges, want love and light and happiness for just about everyone and know how to let your heartlight shine. When you love someone, you love them with all your heart. (Um, and when you don’t? You don’t with all your heart!) Those whom you love know it without question. Just like there was nothing left unsaid between you and Lauren – she knew, unequivocally, how you felt about her.

The second best thing about you is your willingness to be a dorky 12 year old and show that to the world. Most people have an inner dork and when one finds the other, it’s like a secret hand signal or something is exchanged. If truth be known, that’s really the best side of you. Your inner dork = love.

Growing and changing and being the best Lisa you can be while on this earth is your fondest wish. (That and those damn shoes!) You will never be complacent about that.

One day you will come to realize what a gift you have in writing and doing the woo-work. You sort of know it now but don’t fully get it. You will. It’s the work of your soul and you know that fully. The more you bring it out, the stronger it gets.

To sum up, you’re a sweetie. Sometimes a moody sweetie. But always a sweetie.

Love,
Me

And no, it’s not Cookie (although he runs a close 45th or so).

Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for.

Yeah, you knew it would be the Goddaughter of Love, right? I picked her because she truly was the closest thing to a child I had in this lifetime. I am beyond thankful that I got to have that relationship with her so that I could understand (even if only the tiniest bit) how to love someone with all your heart and soul all the time. Lauren and I shared true unconditional love and it’s enriched my life so much for having had that wonderful girl as my sweet goddaughter as long as I did. What got me through the days as it became clear she was leaving us was the unshakable belief that I’d see her again and we’d pick up right where we left off. We’ve been through lives before with each other and I suspect we’ll be together again for many more.

Do I love this kid or what? Can you believe he’s six months old already? Time sure flies, don’t it? Gosh, I so cannot wait to be barfed on next weekend! heheh (I actually am excited about 2 1/2 days of full time babyholding! The barf thing is just a bonus, of course!)

I am so so so so happy to be home!! Oh my God. I am beyond ecstatic. My own bed. My own cats. My own coffee!! And rooms that separate me and Duty. Ah! Bliss! Mama needs her alone time, you know? I cannot be in anyone’s energy that much. No matter who they are or how much I love them. (Lauren really was the only exception to that rule. Loved being with her.)

Back to work tomorrow for just four days and then adventures in kiddie land on Friday. I am taking one day off after that adventure to recuperate. I think I’ll need it.

Blah blah blah, Happy Stuff

Wenches and rums sound good to meh

funny pictures-'Xcuse meh... I wuz told there wuld be wenches an rums?

All LOLcats, all the time, right?

Something is awry with my doggie, Max. His tail is tucked way the hell under his butt and periodically he starts shaking for no reason as if he’s scared to death of something. Not sure what the dealio is. He was fine and Duty took him to get his nails trimmed Monday – I noticed the tail-tucking action last night and all day today. He is getting older and is losing his hearing a bit and has a cataract in one eye … just an old, old doggie and I know his health isn’t quite what it used to be. I hope he comes around soon. I haz a big sad about it.

No sads otherwise, though.

* Duty’s health issues are relatively resolved with the placement of stent #2 for his blocked artery. No stories to tell this time, kids. It was easy peasy YEY!
* Appointment with endocrinologist in 2 weeks to see WTF is up with my damn hormones. YEY.
* Trip to Maine coming soon! YEY
* I get to hold my behbeh and be called “Aunt WeeHah” by Luke this weekend. YEY!

What’s the haps out there? I have Google Analytics on this blog and Practically Intuitive and it’s rather disheartening to learn that yes, in fact, I do have but four readers (and I love each and every damn one a’youse!) and lots of spambots and freaks. I don’t publicize this blog much because who else would be remotely interested in my blatherings? My snark isn’t quite what it used to be. Still. Lauren and I always said we’d write no matter who read it (or didn’t, as the case may be) and I shall carry that mission forward. I know she’s reading it on a Kindle in Heaven so I should count her in the total. Officially now FIVE readers!

W00t!
