I am here for Friends

About Me

Life is crazy, but it's all what you make of it. Whether I decide to be part of the drama or ignore is up to me and I have to ignore-they say ignorance is bliss!! School starts up soon....I'm ready to retire from babysitting....I am happily married.....I see good things in the future. I guess that is all I can ask for. I am not going to say that I haven't had hard days (I am actually having one today-it's 3 months since Grandpa has passed and I am just trying to accept it) Some days I just want to give up and tell everyone off that has or is pissing me off, but then I come to my senses and realize that it would only make things worse. Life is too short to dwell on the negative so I am trying to take it day by day and looking only at the positive- okay maybe not all of the time, but I do my best. I know that I can't technically control my life but I am trying to make it better one step at a time.

My Interests

* Books that inspire me or just bring me into a different world. * People that are not afraid to be different and are proud to be that way! * Working with kids (not as much as a babysitter anymore)- I think I am about to be a retired babysitter. * I love animals- especially fat, sly and stinky ones like Joe, Snickers and Scarlett. * Shannon and his super powers- I never knew that someone's presence could make me feel better in an instant.

I'd like to meet:

Adam Sandler, Dane Cook, Dave Navarro, Chino, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sally Fields, Julia Roberts, Dustin Hoffman, there are a lot more but I am too brain dead to think about them right now.........

Music:

Just about everything and anything that fits my mood.....

Movies:

Beaches, Forest Gump, Wedding Singer, Big Daddy, 10 Things I Hate About You, Edward Scissorhands, Drop Dead Fred, She's Out of Control, Pretty In Pink, Monsters Inc., Wedding Crashers, Office Space, Ghost, The Notebook CHUCK AND LARRY-HILARIOUS!!!!!!

Television:

Not that I watch it that much anymore----Grey's Anantomy, Desperate Housewives, Wifeswap, Extreme Home Makeover, Supernanny, Sex and the City (pretty much seen them all), Sopranos ( in the process of seeing all of them)

Books:

The Notebook, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Redhat Club Society, Little Women, P.S. I love you, At First Sight

Heroes:

Still Grandma and Grandpa ( I miss you so much!!!) My Grandma is still always there for me and I only hope that she feels the same. I know that my Grandpa is now my angel and I want more than anything for him to be here now, but there is no one that I would rather have watching over me. Even more now than before- I strive to be the person that I feel my Grandparents would want me to be. When I am having a bad day and I feel like I just want to quit I remind myself that my Grandparents never have quit on me and the least I can do is continue on to honor my Grandpa.John E. Zaller December 28, 1928 to May 21, 2007- You will always be in my heart and mind. I love you and miss you so much.......

3 months have passed

It has now been 3 months since Grandpa has been gone. I just don't know what to think. Some days I just cry and other days all I can do is smile when I think about all of the memories I have with Gran...
