I'M BACK....

I swear I have spent a lot of time reading other people's blogs and commenting, but to actually sit down and write... Nothing has struck me as worthy of writing about....until now.

Recently my eldest brother who happens to be 5 years my senor and just happens to be a grandfather (for the 4th time recently). Was on the receiving end of a road rage incident. WTF is wrong with people out there? He is about 6'3" and weighs about 260. He is a big man and is a gentle soul. Sure he has hair down his back, sure he has a massive beard, sure he has tattoos covering his arms, sure he rides a Harley, but he is a hard working husband, father and grandfather. Three young punks decided that it would be fun to break his face in 8 places and almost kill him. Yep, that's right. My bro was riding his motorcycle home from work when these idiots driving a full size truck cut him off in traffic. My brother was able to avoid getting hit (thank God because they don't wear helmets in Florida). They got to a red light and the three stooges got out of their truck and proceeded to beat my brother almost to death. Yeah, nice guys, huh? Lucky for Bro1, he will be O.K. He just needs time to heal. He broke both of his eye sockets, top & bottom, his nose, a part of his sinus cavity and the whole roof of his mouth was split down the middle. My brother opted not to get the police involved. He believes in Karma and knows in his heart that these punks will get what they deserve sooner or later. I hurt for him.

I just have to wonder, why do people form opinions about people just by the way they look? Hasn't this world evolved enough? I guess not. Please my friends, say a little prayer or throw some Karma and good thoughts his way, please...

I love you Bro1!!!

OMG....

I couldn't think of a better thing to call this very short post. Well, I want to thank my few and faithful for sending some good karma to my friend CP. The update was extremely positive, her dad is going to be fine and her mother is still great blog-fodder.

Wow, so much has happened since I was here last I don't know where to start. Hhmmm... can't think of anything that I really want to talk about except a dear friend of mine conned me in to joining Curves. It's like she sucker punched me.... Yep, there I said it. It shows my weakness. Mind you there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with Big Mama... I am perfect in every way.... I don't need six pack abs.... O.K. maybe I wouldn't mind the six pack abs, but I don't NEED them. Oh and for those of you wanting bikini pics once I'm hot... We'll talk!

Good night y'all.

HAPPY VD...

No wait, I mean Happy Valentines Day! I hope everyone is doing wonderful today. I have had a lot going on in my world. I mean a LOT. From my daughter and a friend turning up missing, then found....long story. My son getting in a fight on the bus.....still waiting for word of a suspension. Just a LOT of BS and frankly I'm quite over it for the moment.

Today I want all of you to pop over to a good friend of mines place and lend a little support. She is such a great person with a HUGE heart and I love her to death. Her dad is about to have open heart surgery and she is scared and feeling very vulnerable right now. If you would, head over there and lend her some virtual support. She is truly a wonderful person.

THIS MAKES ME SAD....

Poor poor Anna...

I know that this chick was messed up and had issues, but for some reason I have always liked her and thought she had a lot of nads.

I hope that she is at peace now.

Such a beauty, such a waste.

I wonder what will happen to her little baby daughter...

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY UPDATE....

The flowers were awesome!

The love note was just perfect....

I love pink flowers and roses....

Most of all the kisses were warm and just right!

THIS POST IS DEDICATED TO THE MAN I LOVE....

Look, I know he doesn't read this blog. Hell, he doesn't even know that I have a blog. This is my very own secret. I guess we all need to keep a little something that is just ours. Today is our 15th wedding anniversary! Yep, that's right the hubby has put up with all my quirks for longer than that. He is da'MAN!

He is the kindest most gentle soul I have ever known. I wish each one of you could meet the man, the legend (heehee). He is my opposite and my equal he is a good balance for me. He's beautiful.

We laugh all the time and he really makes me believe that I am worth it.

I almost lost him on April 4th, 2005. He was racing his motorcycle on a private track.

There were a few amateurs there and unfortunately one of them got right in front of him going in to the first turn. He avoided hitting the guy but his motorcycle hit the pea stones and took the wheels right out from under him. I was not at the race. I was home with the children, 4 hours from him. I got the phone call everyone dreads. He never got back up. He was being airlifted to the trauma unit. My heart sank. I am crying as I am typing this... No one could tell me anything. I called the hospital. They wouldn't tell me anything. I got in my car and headed south on I-95. Unfortunately there were wildfires blowing across the highway and they stopped traffic, so there I sat. We were at a standstill. I couldn't think straight. I called my brother who lives in Jacksonville (who happens to be married to my hubby's sister). The were just about to walk out the door. They were less than 15 minutes from the hospital. They called me when they got there to let me know that he was still alive but that was all they knew.

I have never felt so alone in my whole life.

A normal trip there would take 2 hours. It took me almost 6. Lucky for me he has recovered and the only thing he has now is residual headaches.

He is still my rock. He is still in one piece and I thank God everyday that we wake up next to each other. I know most of you come here for a good laugh or to read about another misadventure of one of the kids. Very rarely to I ever talk about the hubby. He is one awesome person. I am so blessed to be able to say that I married the man of my dreams.

Happy Anniversary Baby, I love you more than you will ever know!
