Okay I am going to try to do this again

So I am going to try blogging regularly again. How often this will happen right now, I am not too sure, but I am going to give it a try.

First off I want to say that my heart and soul go out to Hallie over at Wonderful World of Wieners and her family who are dealing with the loss of their son CJ. This was unexpected and tragic and I cannot tell any of you how just unreal it seems. Even as I write this I still can't believe it. My heart still breaks for their loss. I ask all of you to just send a little prayer up for them and for CJ.

As horrible as it sounds this tragedy is the reason that I decided to start blogging again. Through this I have seen how powerful the blogging world can be and I have realized how much I value and love the connections that I have made with my fellow bloggers. By giving up my blog I am severing that connection and I just can't allow that to happen.

So I have a few posts that I have in draft that I will post at a later date. Hopefully this will help some of you understand what has been going on in my life lately and why I took a hiatus from my blog. Some great things have been happening in my little corner of the world. I have made friends (YES FRIENDS!) in Montreal, I have been riding up a storm and I am volunteering at the SPCA (Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Animals.)

So the plan for this blog is to give a bit more of myself. The one thing that I keep saying in my job hunt is that I have so much to offer is only someone would give me the chance. Well I have the chance here, and although I may not share my ideas for improving productivity or retention in a workplace with all of you, I can share my recipes, decorating ideas and interesting stories.

So what do you say, do you want to take this journey with me?

Yes, I would love to journey with you. :)

I still can not wrap my brain around what happened. It seems every other minute I fins myself thinking "CJ can't be gone" and then the tears start again. My heart aches for Hallie and her family. I love them all dearly and can not imagine what they are going through. The loss of a loved one is never easy, especially one so young. But you are right. How we have all rallied around her is awe-inspiring. It makes me so happy to have my blog buddies in my life. I for one am so blessed to have friends like you.

Glad you are back O, I've missed you. :)

DAMN YOU STARBUCKS So just when I thought that I was safe from edible temptation, Starbucks releases its Valentine's Day Cupcakes! I innocently walked into the Starbucks across the street from school and just as I walked in a guy asked me if I would like to try a sample. Before I realized what was going on I said "Sure!" I tried the sample, then I realized what it was I was eating... pure heaven in the form of chocolate. Then I realized what I should have seen all along! That guy who offered me a "sample" was actually a pusher! I have since clued in: I've been coming to Starbucks daily since I started school. These cheery people who happily serve me my grande non-fat no water Tazo chai every morning are actually just a bunch of disguised pushers who know that I have lost control of my addiction and am now searching for a new high! They've got me, in the form of chocolate and red velvet cupcakes..... Don't be fooled by their charming demeano...

OOPS! Tagged! :P

So Kass tagged me a while ago and I kinda forgot to do it! So here goes. I am not going to lie, I had to cheat a bit because the idea is to go into your pictures folder and choose the fourth pic from the fourth folder, but that pic had someone else in it and I didn't feel right putting someone else's pic on my blog without asking them, so I went into Facebook and took my fourth pic from my fourth album there. The next part of the tag says to explain the pic. Well this is the first pic I took of my engagement ring after I got it. It was so shiny. Sighhhhhhh. So that's my beauuutttiiiiiffffuuulll ring and I still love love love it! So for this challenge I tag Vegas Princess Delicieux Courtney Kim-d Looking forward to seeing all your pics! :)

Just so ya know

I have been feeling very low lately, so low in fact that I have had trouble doing anything. I can't even write about it. Part of it is because I feel so guilty for feeling this way, especially at this time of year when we are reminded of just how lucky we are. I have been reading all the blogs that I normally do but haven't been able to comment for one reason or another and I am sorry. I am fine and I will be back at it soon enough, but I just thought you all might want to know. Talk to y'all soon! :)
