Chris.....

I have been in a lot of bad relationships over the years and some of them I knew were bad during the relationship, some I didn't realize until after the relationship was over. Some were bad because of situations and some were bad because of the compatibility between me and the other person. Each of those relationships have taught me something though......how to appreciate a good relationship when it comes along. And come along it has!

I have spent my life dreaming of a real life "love story" like the one my grandparents had. They were each other's 2nd marriage and they loved each other more than anything in the world. My grandmother Irene passed away in Oct of 89, my grandpa quickly fell apart and gave up the will to live. He passed in Dec. of 89, almost exactly 2 months to the day of my grandmothers passing. To me, even at 8, this spoke volumes of my grandpa's love for my grandma. He just could not bear to go on without her and didn't even want to try to, I could tell that every morning when he woke up he had no clue how to go on without her (I could see it in his eyes) and he had no idea how to go to bed alone without her every night. While the 2 months between their passings was hard on us, I can only imagine the personal hell that my grandpa was going through without his soul mate and best friend at his side. All the years I was around my grandparents I could tell how much love they had for each other. It was just alive around them, it was tangible, you could not only feel and see it, you could taste it. There was never ANY doubt that they were still madly in love with each other until their final days together, and even in death my grandpa could not bear to go on without her. I feel that had it be a reversed situation, my grandmother would have done the same thing as my grandpa did.

I have always wanted to find my soul-mate and best friend, I have always wanted to be in love, but more importantly....I have always wanted what my grandparents shared. Someone who would love me and want me as much as I loved and wanted them. Someone who could finally make me feel like I was good enough, and someone who could make me want to be a better person. Someone I could trust with my heart and know that they would not hurt me just because they could or just to knock me down a peg or two.

I met Chris about 2 months ago and while the timing was not perfect or ideal, neither of us could deny that it just felt "right". I gave him my number that night (the way he was so nervous was sooooo adorable) and tried to convince myself all the way home and all the next morning that if he didn't call I would be ok. Sure enough, around noon, I got a text message from him asking if he could make me dinner that night. I spent an hour terrified to say yes (for fear of getting hurt), but not terrified enough to say no (because I could already tell that I REALLY liked him). I ended up going to dinner that night and it was the best decision I ever made. Everything was so comfortable and easy (how I figured love was always supposed to be....) The entire night I felt like I was hanging out with my best friend, he was so easy to talk to and just be around. I could tell this time was going to be different, I knew Chris was different from other men I had dated or been in relationships with.

Now, I am not going to say that every day for the last 2 months have been rosy and perfect, but it has been amazing. Chris and I are capable of communicating, we are able to just be together and just be ourselves. I knew I was absolutely in love with him when we were talking on the phone one night about a week into our relationship and he started telling me a story about how some of his employees were talking about the movie "Who framed Roger Rabbit?". The synopsis of the movie that followed just amazed me and made me laugh harder than I have probably EVER laughed in my life. It wasn't anything extravagant, but just they way he said it and the tone in his voice, just amazed me and made me realize just how incredibly, amazingly, and wonderfully smart and funny he was (which are two of my major weaknesses). I knew in that very moment that there was no way I could live the rest of my life without this man in it. I knew this was the man I had been searching my entire life for, and the man that I wanted to wake up to when I was 90. I spent the next week doing everything in my power to not say "I love you" for fear of scaring him off or freaking him out.

One night I was making him dinner and was in the process of cutting and baking raw chicken (I cannot stand the feel of raw chicken, it grosses me out lol) and I started to say "you know I must like you if I am touching raw chicken for you" and instead I said "you know I must LOVE you if I am touching raw chicken for you". I will never forget that, Chris just stopped and looked at me for about 10 seconds while I just stared straight ahead and hoped he hadn't picked up on it, terrified he was going to freak out (although I knew by the way he stopped mid motion that he HAD heard EVERY word of it). He said "Did you just say you love me?", I sheepishly said "Yes.....", He said "I love you too" and I could tell he meant every word of it.

He is amazing, sweet, incredible, sexy and sooooo very good to me. I have no doubt that this is the man I was supposed to find and end up with, I am only sorry that it took this long for us to find each other. My theory is that we weren't ready for each other until now and that is why it took so long for us to find each other. We have both been hurt before and we have both been through enough to know how to do it right this time. I finally know where I want to spend my happy ending and who I want to be by my side in that happy ending. I would be naive to believe that everyday for the rest of our lives would be perfect, but it will absolutely be worth it.

I would rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else.
I would rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself.
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy alone.
Remember I'll always love you, you are the one who holds my heart.

Therapy

Well, I had my 5th therapy appointment today..... For those of you who don't knowI have been off work since Sept 17th, for stress and anxiety reasons. Coincidentally that was the day I came back from bereavement leave as Grandpa Pickle had just passed away. I think I had finally just had too much and I cracked. I am an expert at falling down, failing and getting hurt and then just stand8ing up, dusting myself off, smiling and continuing on my path as if nothing happened. I have trained myself to perfect this skill and I will always be a pro at it. Honestly, I just don't like to burden others with my issues. There are so many people out there with such worse problems than anything I ever deal with, so I just smile and dust myself off and move on. I think I had just finally hit a wall that I couldn't recover from.

Grandpa Pickle was Andrew's maternal grandpa, I had known this wonderful man for 12 years and while we were never close, He reminded me of my grandpa Harry. I was extremely close to Grandpa Harry until he passed away when I was 8, I very rarely speak of him because I just cannot bring myself to do it. I cry when I do and my heart just hurts when I discuss him or Grandma Irene. They passed almost 22 years ago and I still cannot discuss them (I can't even type this without crying)  They were amazing people and they had a big hand in shaping who I am, even as a person today. There will never come a day when I will be able to thank them enough and I miss them immensly. My therapist has pointed out recently that a  lot of my issues now come from the fact that I have never properly said good bye and I have never really grieved for them. This is probably true, How do you say good bye to someone when you love them that much? Some days I like to believe they are just on an extended vacation, others I like to believe that they are just in a retirement community somewhere and they are just having too much fun with their friends to check in. I know this is unhealthy, but its how I deal with it. Maybe one day I will be able to say good bye and grieve...... but, I don't know how (and I am not sure I want to, because that means I have finally resigned myself to the fact that they are not coming back, and I don't know how to deal with that with out feeling like my heart is caving in and my brain is exploding .)

A lot is going on right this second and I don't really know how to finish this... so I will finish another day.... ...

Ten Things......

10 Things You Want To Say To 10 People:


1. Keegan/ Squish, I was in a store before you were born and I saw a picture frame that explained a lot of how I felt for you.... It said " Before you were concieved I wanted you, Before you were born I loved you, Before you were here an hour I would've died for you, this is the mirace of love." It spoke volumes of what I felt for you, I love you more than anyone ever could and more than I ever thought I would love anyone.  A lot has happened in my life that I may never understand, but I know why you were given to me. I just want for you to be happy and get everything you deserve in life. You are my miracle and I love you more than anyone will ever understand. Your daddy and I had waited so long for you, you were definitely worth the wait. If you ever wonder if I loved you more than anything else...I do. You are my reason for living and you will never know what your life means to me. You are the best parts of your daddy and I and no one else can be that.  You will turn 3 in about a week and a half and this has absolutely been the most amazing 3 years of my life. I cannot wait to see you grow up and become who you are supposed to be, I have no doubt that you will be phenomenal. There will come a day that you will understand that your family is a little bit different than some other people's but I am not sorry that it is not what some people consider "normal". You have some pretty amazing people who are in your life and have had a hand in shaping who you are and who you will become and I would have it no other way.  Please just know that no matter what happened  in the past and no matter what happens in the future that your daddy and I did everything for you, every choice we make is for you. you may not always understand it, but we love you and only want what is best for you. You will always be my baby and no one can take that away. So go, my boy, and be phenomenal like you are meant to be!


2. Chris, I Love you. You are amazing. I  know that I tell you this all the time, but you really are. No one has ever made me feel as loved as you do. I can feel it when you look at me, when we cuddle and watch movies, even when you just hug me. I feel like I am "home".  I think all along that this is where I was supposed to be. I know our timing was not perfect, but I knew when you kissed me that first night that there was something different about you. It has been 2 wonderful, amazing months and I have never been happier or felt more safe in giving my heart to someone.  I handed it over the night of our first date and never looked back, I am a trusting person, but when I hand over my heart there is always a feeling of trepidation in me. I didn't feel any of that this time, I just KNEW I was doing the right thing.  I want you to be the old man that I am sitting next to when I am 90, I still want to be holding your hand and still be just as in love with you then as I am today, if not more (if that is even possible). Some people may not understand how we have managed to fall so fast and how we just know.....but I don't care. I have always believed that it was possible to just know, and that the person I was supposed to find would just appear one day... I can't think of anyone else I would have rather have had it be. It is amazing to me how you can go your whole life without knowing someone and then one day you can't imagine your life without that person.  I can't wait to see what our future holds, baby. I love you.

3. Drew, first off... I love you. I know we have had our differences and we had a REALLY rough patch, but you truly are one of my bestest friends. I have been madder than hell at you, but you never have actually just turned your back on me when you could have so many times. We definitely have let each other down at times, but we will always be each others back bone and biggest fans.  I am beginning to see the man that I knew you could be, You may not be that 17 year old boy I fell in love with. but you have become a damn good dad and person, I am glad that "drew" is gone and you are happy. I am so sorry that I hurt you, but you know I only did what I thought was best for us. I am thankful that we are able to be what we are. I can't think of anyone I would rather have "grown up" with. We learned a lot and I am thankful that you are here. I am excited to see what you are capable of and see the finished product of the people that we set out to be so long ago.


4. Mom, There are things in our lives that we cannot control, for you it was me. Lord knows you tried to control me no matter how much I pulled away. You always  just wanted the best for me and I know that now. I love you, but I was so angry with you for so long for not telling me thngs that I needed to know. I always thought you just wanted us to be apart, I was just too young tounderstand that sometimes people just forget. I learned to forgive you and realize that it wasn't all your fault and that you meant no harm to me by it. No matter how angry I was I still loved you. I will always love you. I spent so much time being angry with you.....I am sorry. I love you, I know we have had a rough relationship at times, but I can't picture anyone else being my mother.  You are a terrific grandmother and I am blessed to have you in my life and to have you in Keeg's life. He couldn't have gotten a better grandma. I want you to know though that I do worry about you, you do so much and I just want you to be around for a long time momma.... cause even with as independent as I am, I can't ever picture life without you and even the thought of it makes me fall apart. I love you momma.

5. Grandma and Grandpa Searles, I miss you more than you will ever know. I know you are watching me. I hope I make you proud, Thank you for taking such good care of me while you were here. I have tried not to be angry with God for taking you. I have tried to understand he needed you too. I just hate that you are not here to see the boys and my little boy. We miss you and I am sure you see that, I am sure you see the pain we have been in over you guys for the past 22 years. We just miss you, you were our world and it is hard when that is taken from you. I just wish we could have one more day with you guys. I will never forget you and neither will momma. I will make sure Keegan knows about you guys, he needs to know what great people you are and the people who mean so much to his mommy and grandma for so many reasons. One day I hope we will be able to talk about you  without falling apart, I still cry at the mention of you. My therapist says that I never grieved the loss of you and that is something I need to work on, still haven't figured out how to do that yet, 22 years of grief is a lot to deal with. I  love you and miss you more than you will ever understand.


5.Daddy, You are one of a kind. It takes a special man to take on a pain in the ass kid like me and not even think twice about it.  You took care of my grandpa when he was dying and you didn't have to.  You chose to do these things 22 years ago with out a second thought. I will always love and respect you for that. I am sorry I was so hard on you as a kid, I know I apologize all the time for it, but I want you to know that I love you and you will always be my daddy.  I am a daddy's girl and always will be because my daddy is an amazing person and has helped shape me into who I am today.

6. Krissy, Thank you for holding on.  People may not understand our relationship, but I love you. Thankyou for protecting me when I couldn't do it myself. Thank you for  letting me cry it out in your living room, thank you for being there when I called you at 2am crying once again. I love that you have taken such good care of me, but as we have learned in the past few weeks/months. I have to grow up and this relationship is going to take a different turn, I need to not rely on you so much and I need to stand on my own and learn to protect myself. You have taught me well mama bird, now I need to fly. You are still always going to be my sister and I am excited to see what this new dynamic brings to our friendship. I love you and thank you.

7. Luke, Joey and Dakota, My brothers....I love you boys. I know I act very motherly over you guys, and I am sorry that that bother y'all, but that is what it is going to be until we are no longer on earth. You guys are my boys and I love you. You guys are full of potential and capable of so much more than you allow yourselves. I just hope one day you guys see what you are worth and that you finally succeed at what you are each wanting. You guys can do this and I hope that one day you get the motovation to actually do it!

8. Lizzy Beth, my goddess-ninja-superhero.... what do I say to you. you are a shining star, my dear, don't ever forget that. I never realized when you sat 3 desks down from me that I would find a life long friend. You blow me away sometimes and I love that you are the part of me that I have never been able to show.  I am so proud of what you have learned and applied to your life. I am so glad you have been able to open up and stop being scared. Revel in the awesomeness that is you and know that only you could be that amazing and beautiful at it. If I have taught you anything, duckling, be brave... love....and don't be afraid of the pain for it is only temporary.

9.  Scott, we started out dating and ended up being good friends. You are a phenomenal person and I wouldn't know how to not have your presence in me and Keeg's lives. You may be stuck right now, but I have no doubt that, like the phoenix that blesses your blog, you will soar! I am proud to call you my friend and I love you! Keep being the amazing, phenomenal, wonderful person that you are... and don't be scared of making a mistake or remembering your past. It may be painful, but I have no doubt that you will rise above, my dear.   

p.s. Oh and Keep blogging... you are a great writer and I am excited to hear the rest of the story and progress! I have faith in you that it will be great!

10.  for anyone I have missed.... there is a reason you are in my life.... good, bad or indifferent, you have all taught me something. Some of you I have just met and some of you  have been around for years and years. I love you, but it is also 2:30 am and my brain has stopped working.

a new me....

I have been struggling... Now, if you know me you are thinking "no way! really?! I never would have guessed!" , right? Ok, so I am not the most private person when it comes to me and my life and my feelings. I am pretty transparent and YES, I know this. I just don't feel the need to be private about much in my life, until recently, and even with that I am still pretty open.

I have had relationships in the past that my best friends (and sometimes not such best friends) have been completely privy to, until Chris. I feel the need to be prtective of this relationship, because there are occasionally such sweet moments or things that he says that I like to have that to myself to recall later and remind myself how much he loves me. It is probably one of the first and few things that is sacred and important to me.  I am insecure, this is also not a secret to anyone who knows me. I have spent my life being torn apart and knocked down, but I always have gotten up, put a smile on my face and stood there waiting for the next blow.  I am also extrememly giving and trusting...even to the point of fault. I will give and give and give to someone who just takes from me.  If they give back, then I usually don't know how to accept.  I trust people right away, I have always believed that I should trust until I am proven that I shouldn't trust someone. This is who I am, I have resigned myself to this. Has it gotten me in trouble? yes. Has it caused multiple psychological  issues? yes. Has it gotten me hurt? YES! 

I have recently (thanks to Chris) learned how to stand up for myself. He made me take a step back and look at how I was allowing myself to be treated and I realized that I didn't like what I saw. I would see myself cower, rush to please someone, apologize for things that were not even my fault and shy away from saying what I really wanted to say. This is not who I was meant to be, anyone who knew me back in HS or as a teen would know that. Once upon a time, I was strong, unafraid, unapologetic, and confident to an extent.  Now, I know I am not the full reason I am not that girl anymore, things have happened to make me the way I am, but I REFUSE to say that I am not somewhat to blame. I have allowed this treatment to happen, therefore I hold some level of responsibility for what has happened to me and how I have been treated. I apologize to myself for letting that happen.

On the verge of thirty I think I have a better idea of who I am and what I am capable of. I am no longer going to be anyone's lap dog, yes woman, or victim. I am  done being scared, I am done cowering, I am done holding back. I am ready to be who I was meant to be and who I wanted to be all those years ago. I am going to stand on my feet, I am going to say "NO!", I am going to believe I am a beautiful person and stop being modest,  I am going to make mistakes and allow myself to feel every bit of it and know that it is ok to be wrong. I have always been beautifully chotic, but it has always been hidden for fear of what other people are going to think.... I'm done hiding it. I am going to be a "freak, strange, and weird".  Label me.... go ahead.... I am no longer afraid of it. 

I am me. I am smart. I am passionate. I am loving. I am a little left of center. I am confident.  I am strong. and I would have it no other way.

Just because I'm not visibly shaken doesn't mean I'm not hurt....

So, apparently I am a bad person because people don't like that I blog about them.... Well, tough cookies....this is my blog and part of my therapy so I will write about what I want and what is important to me. If you don't like it then stop reading.

I am tired of being a door mat. There are certain people in my life that I have bent over backwards for and have gotten nothing but hurt in return. I am used as a punching bag, sexual conquest, and therapist (amongst other things) and I AM TIRED OF IT!!! You can only push someone so far before they break and I am completely broken!

I screw up, I make mistakes, I am not perfect and I know this. I also apologize to people when I have made an error in judgement or done something to hurt someone. I do this by saying "I am sorry, I screwed up... what can I do to make it up to you?" not by wordplay, pretty letters, just ignoring it or illusion.... I have no problem saying I have screwed up, but I can only apologize so many times for the same thing before I have nothing left to do to make it up.

When someone hurts me I try to just let it go and move on and hope they will do better next time and have the faith in them that they can do better. Is that same treatment EVER extended to me? NO. I continually get it brought up every time I screw up (whether it is relevant to the situation or not) and I have to continually apologize for it. I am tired of apologizing numerous times for the same mistake! I am sorry! what else do you want?! blood? money? my first born child? what will make it end and why do I always have to be the bad guy?

I am tired of being the punching bag, I am tired of being the bigger person, I am tired of acting like I am not hurt and I am tired of never being able to tell these people that they are wrong sometimes too! If there is one thing I carry with me from my grandparents.... it is the ABSOLUTE belief that NO ONE is perfect and EVERYONE makes mistakes. It is sometimes much easier to ask  forgiveness than to ask permission. I, for one, will continue to apologize when I have done wrong and I will try always to forgive others before they even have to ask. This is who I am, but next time you are going to be angry with me.... maybe you should take a second and think about the things you may have done to hurt me. I am not going to allow anyone, and I do mean ANYONE, to hurt me any longer. I bend to please people and I am done doing that. From here on out..... I am doing what is best for me and my family.... no one else, if you don't like that then I am sorry.... but that is how it is.

You are going to have to learn to accept NO.... I know, from me it will be a hard thing to hear for a lot of people.... but I have been saying yes to too many things I have not wanted to do and no one (including myself) has ever put MY best interests first, and it is damn time that I do that and stop expecting people that I care about to do it.....

I am sorry if this hurts or offends anyone, but I am taking a stand and being who I was meant to be. I am going to put me and my family first and only say "yes" when I sincerily mean it. This is what I have to do to get better and make myself happy again and I apprieciate all the people who have either positively or negatively affected who I have become, becuase without each of you this would not be possible. I hope those that I love will accept this, but if not, then there's the door (no questions asked). All I ask is that you be courteous enough to let me know you are leaving.

If you love that girl, you better love her and treat her right while she is there..... or someone else will.

Here's an idea....If you keep telling someone to walk away and that you don't love them, don't want to be with them enough times, or that they are not good enough for you, then guess what.... they just might believe you. Sometimes it is just too late to get back what you lost. You can pour your heart out and sometimes, as sad as it is, it's just not enough. Now, I do not say all of this as bluntly as I am to be mean....I am just trying to make my points known.

Whether you believe it or not, even strong, independent women need to FEEL loved, you cannot just assume that people know you love them just because you are in their lives. You have to tell them and show them by doing things to make them feel your love. Phone calls, text messages, love notes, flowers, back rubs, even something as simple as doing something you may not necessarily like could show someone how much you love them. Some of us need the affection more than others, some people need to be reminded often that they are loved, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

Now, as many of you know I have had someone in my life that I did love very much and he just wasn't good for me. The last two years has been marked by multiple attempts at a relationship with him. We never could make it work and I got decimated every single time. He told me the other day that (once again) he was missing me and he had finally realized that he could not live without me. Now, I have heard all of this from him before, but this time I knew and could tell that he was serious. I do love him and he will always hold a special place in my heart, but I am already happy and in love with a very wonderful man. He pushed and pushed and pushed me away telling me he was not in love with me and made it very apparent that he did not want me. He has made it clear that this has nothing to do with my new beau but, I don't know that I can completely believe that.... the timing is just too convienient..... now, I may be wrong on that but that is how I feel (and being that this is MY blog, I will be nothing but honest on how I feel).

Chris and I have talked about what "P" had to say the other night and the fact that he tried to kiss me, and he is aware that I am in love with him (Chris) and that I came home that night KNOWING I had made the right decision for my life, our lives together and our relationship.  I am in love with Chris, he is amazing to me and loves me for who I am (clinginess, craziness and all) and that is what I need and want. It is no secret that I have left relationships in the past because of "P" saying the same things he said the other night, only to be heartbroken once I made the decision. I refuse to leave an amazing man and relationship this time because "P" has decided that he is ready.

Just remember boys, just because she has been madly in love with you doesn't mean she will wait forever for you. If you love that girl, you better love her and treat her right while she is there..... or someone else will.

People in glass houses..........

I will never understand why people feel the need to cast aspersions on other people's character when they do not know who that person may really be. I am not saying that I have never spoke about anyone behind their back, but I would never do that to a friend and anything I have said behind someones back has been done in a situation where I did not have the chance to say something to someones face, not that I WOULDN'T say it to their face, just that I did not have the opportunity.

I have been put in a situation recently where someone made an assumption based on who they thought I was. My past has been littered with men, but the demise of each of those relationships (generally speaking) were not directly of my cause.... they were situations where I was told I was not enough, I was too much, I wasn't what they wanted, certain things happened that were out of my control.  Just because my past is littered with these men, doesn't mean I am a "man-eater" or "gold digger".

 I was told that "people are scared of what they don't know", which may be true....however, why are we scared of what we don't know. I can't say that I have ever been afraid of what I don't know, just curious about it. I guess I don't normally fall under then "norm"  for most people and I am content with that... I like who I am. Regardless of what people may think of me, I need to not be concerned with what they "see". I am special, beautiful and chaotic at the same time.... I love being who I am and I love that there is a beauty in my chaotic nature.

Once again, I challenge you,my friends, to get out and find something different to embrace, be curious, find out what you didn't know and apply it to your life and see if you can be beautifully chaotic. I am who I am, I challenge you to actually get to know who I am.....

bucket list

I just watched an episode of the buried life on MTV and the one question they always ask at the end is "what do you want to do before you die?" I think this has prompted me to write my own bucket list. So, I am going to think about this and get back to my blog with my list of things I want to do before I die, My bucket list, if you will. Stay tuned to see what I come up with!
