#Winning

So, here we are, just about a week later... guess what....I'M STILL WRITING!!
I have hit my goal for the week and then some, so apparently, I am finally writing what I should have been writing long ago. And you know what else? I think I have a trilogy on my hands. Yep. Pretty sure I have three books in my head, pouring out into a word document.

I don't know if I'll ever get published, or if I will ever share my entire books, but I have also come to realize that I am doing this for me. It is cathartic, and I have so needed to be writing about the right things.

I still have random thoughts, and things I want to blurt out, which I plan to share right here. I'm currently working on posts about compassion, liberals, stepmothers, and a trailer park, just to keep things interesting around here! I'd really like to transition this blog to focus on our blended family, but we shall see if I really get there or not :)

 I've got about 750 things to do, so I had better get back to it! #750wordsperday

Here's a little something for your #HUMPDAY! #Book1 #ElleChane

                        I lather the shampoo into my hair and begin to massage my scalp, now allowing my mind to wander deeper, into the more shameful memories that have transpired since that time. The things that my soul cries out to share, but I can’t. I have to keep the secrets. If I could, what would I share? Who would I share it with? Could I stand on a podium and speak to hundreds, or thousands? Could I be an advocate for those who are as terrified as I was? How could I stop being part of the problem by pretending it  never happened and instead, be part of a solution?

When you just can't even...

So, I am typically a person who is completely and utterly against putting any size, shape or sort of dirty laundry on social media, which is why many people didn't even know when I was going through a divorce. I'm making an exception today, because frankly, I just can't even. I'm so bewildered, flabbergasted, confused, taken aback (insert EVERY synonym for any of these terms here) at a situation that took place today, so much so, that I JUST CAN'T EVEN. CAN'T. Do you ever have those days where everything goes wrong, or just seems so ridiculous that you are certain that at some point you are going to run into a wall that is painted to look like the sky because you know that you absolutely have to be on something like the Truman Show where everything is happening for someone else's entertainment? No, just me? Huh. Well, the last few months, I keep waiting for someone to jump out and shout "Smile! You're on Candid Camera!" It hasn't happened...

I love Jesus but I curse a little

I love Jesus, but I curse a little.... Okay, y'all guys, that's a damn lie. I curse a LOT, like, ALL THE WORDS . I say them. Probably at least a few times a day, just ask my friend Rachael who can hear every breath I take over our shared wall in our gallery offices. I do love Jesus, that part is true. On Saturdays and Sundays, I curse even more, and I say "Jesus!" Sometimes, I am asking him to intervene. For instance, when the Razorbacks were down 21-zip, Stephen and I were sitting in Chili's getting our pregame on before the Texas Tech kickoff and after checking the Razorback score, I said, "Jesus". In my heart I was begging him to get into those Hogs and help 'em out. I mean, seriously, y'all guys, I thought it was bad then! And you know what else? I heart me some Gus Malzahn. I am on the Gus Bus, every game, rooting for Auburn except when they bend my Razorbacks over and spank the hell out of 'em! Shit. Sometimes, I am praising him...

Nutrisystem Week 2

Day 8 I woke up and jumped on the scale, because, well, a week of prepackaged food should yield some decent results, right? I was down 7.5lbs after one week. I am feeling like that is a win y'all guys! This week changes in the sense, that I will have weekends off beginning this coming weekend through the remainder of the 5 weeks left. What I ate-- I ate all 4 servings of my veggies, and drank my 64 oz of water in addition to the following..... Breakfast: Blueberry Lemon Bar. Holy Mother of all things good and right. This thing was freaking delicious. I would eat this every morning for breakfast, no shit. Lunch: Cheddar Broccoli Rice- This was pretty good, but it was definitely a soup, it didn't thicken up like I expected it to, but it was still tasty. Dinner: Chicken Pasta Parmesan- This was nothing like I expected from the title. It tasted fine, but I'm glad my package only came with one serving of this. Day 9 I woke up counting down to the weekend. I am both e...
