The old Kristen is starting to come out.
Let’s face it…. In this day and time everyone is grumpy, depressed or down right pissy for no reason. I am tired of hearing the negative comments and how life is not fair. Duh! I want to hear something good that has happened in the community.
I have been dealing with a huge boulder on my shoulder lately. It is called the world. Well, today I threw it out the window on a country road in McGregor. The skies were beautiful. I rolled the windows down and let the wind rip. It is my haven I guess you could say. Landon sat in the back enjoying listening to Anessa and I talk about life. He played his DS for the most part. We went with out a nap today and now here it is 6:30pm and he is passed out cold turkey.
I have not blogged in a while. Sorry… I have not been in the mood to write my deepest hearted feelings. I guess that does not give me an excuse. So to recap on a few changes in the life game, I am once again single. I guess it is a good thing. I got used to having someone around. Oh well, such is life. I have really learned to let things roll off my back. I have tried to stop from being a Negative Nancy. We will see how long that last =-).
How was everyone’s Mother’s Day? Get any cool gifts?
This was the first year Landon could sign the card. It tickled me to see “I love you” all swirled around like a tornado drew it. I am in awe everyday to know that I am his mom. He is the biggest blessing I have ever received. I do not know if I want more children, but what I do know is that he is the best. I was pondering this last week.
Over the past two years I think a dark cloud has been just raining on my life plan parade on and off. A good way to describe it would be like Texas weather. You never know what life is going to do. I am excited to say that I think a happy medium has been landed upon. I just got an umbrella handy now.
If everyone could just live in the moment we would be so better off. When you start to plan the future what is here and now passes you by. Even if you do not think it is what you want. Turn around and live for today and not for tomorrow. Procrastination is made out to be a bad thing. It is in some cases, but you have to enjoy today because tomorrow is not promised.
I set a goal three weeks ago. I am going to smile at every person I pass everyday whether I like them or not. Sunshine will be coming out of my butt and people will have to deal with it.
=-) I know not a great terminology, Oh Well.
Well I am off to make nachos and eat them! Yay for unhealthy food!
Have a great week all!

Kristen… Sorry to hear life has been weighing you down lately. You look amazing in the pictures. If it’s any comfort, someone as beautiful as you probably won’t be single for long.

Great new update…however, you need to post on the good days & the bad days. April 24th is way too long not to have said something. There are a lot of people that need to vent & discuss. Life is tough…post more often. It helps everyone. Keep up the good work & enjoy every moment. PS Great song selection.

Life is hard. Growing up in Waco and surrounding communities puts us in a tiny bubble. Enshrouded one becomes complacent and things in life are taken for granted. The status quo of life in central texas is simple.
Waco carved out this sanctuary but it did not prepare its citizens for bigger picture. Easy pickings and suckers are we that grew up Waco.
The real world is harsh. No one looks out for you except yourself. If you want it you have make it your own. Take the initiative because someone that is hungrier will take it from you.
Depression is natural..ups and downs are natural. just how long you stay down is unnatural.

Dont want to hear anything negative huh? Well here goes. The pictures you posted are so pretty. I could not help but stare into those goregeous eyes. I am 50 married to a cutie myself for 25 years so I couldnt be the “one”, but the radiance of your face is striking. Please change the “Baby Mama” blogsite photo, it just does not do you justice.
