Day 17 - Someone from your childhood

Dear You,

 You were my very best friend growing up.  I didn't think there was anyone like you in the entire world.  You were fun, you were fearless, you were tough, and you were beautiful.  And I followed behind you in your footsteps.

 The day I found out you were moving was one of the worst days of my life.  I couldn't believe I was about to lose you and at one of the times I probably needed you the most.  

 Coming to visit you was one of the most life altering things I have ever done.  If I'd known beforehand how much, I don't know if I'd have been brave enough myself to take the trip.  I'm sorry I lost you afterwards.  But I'm grateful you are back in my life again - even if it isn't exactly how we'd probably imagined.

 I know I broke the code.  I know it upset you.  I love him so much and it's because of you that we even got the chance to meet.  Sometimes I get jealous thinking of how gorgeous you were (and still are) and then looking at myself who will never be beautiful.  

 In my mind, I'll forever be inside the skating rink with my BFF, dancing and skating and gossiping about cute boys with you.

Day 12 - Picture of where you live

Deviating from the list I originally chose again today because it's a pretty boring topic...who really cares how I found out about blogger and why I have one? That should be obvious - cause I wanted to blog. There ya go. Short, boring post right? Instead, I will post up a picture of where I live - or a close reasonable proximity. You want to see my house? Then be my friend on facebook... The place where I feel most at home though is the beach. Miles and miles of ocean surround me and I'm in heaven. As much as I wish I could be someplace else at times, I feel like I need to be around the water. Yes, I burn. Yes, it's hot and sandy and I make a mess in my car on the way home but while I am there, I just don't care. I live in what is technically a city - albeit a really, really small one that is pretty much dying before my eyes. We are super dependent on the space program and our current administration doesn't feel it's a priority so we are losing jobs and our comm

A picture of my family

I'm from a big family, but my picture is my own immediate world...Me and my son. I've just blogged about my boy, so I won't give a lot of details but I will do a generic discussion about my family. We're a big family. My mom is one of four girls, and I am the oldest of six (through a blended mix). My dad was one of three but it's more extended family on his side because one of his brothers passed away when he was a teenager and the other has never had children. My paternal grandmother was one of 8 and my paternal grandfather was one of 12. I don't know many of the great aunts and uncles, etc. on my maternal side but my maternal grandmother wasn't an only child either, so there are more family members. Two of my aunts have three kids, and one of my aunts has four. I have a ton of extended cousins and whatnot mostly in Kentucky and Indiana. Three of my sisters also have children so I have one niece and three nephews. One of my cousins also has four ki

30 days of Krista

A few of my friends are doing this blogging project and I feel inspired to start the new year by attempting to get back to writing for fun instead of just writing legal pleadings all the time. If I can keep it up, then I have another outlet for my sadly waning creativity. Plus, being in a long distance relationship leaves lots of nights where I have nothing to do but miss him, and well, this may help distract me on occasion. So for the first topic I am supposed to post a photo of myself and 15 interesting facts about me...Photo of self posted, now onto the so-called interesting facts about yours truly. 1. I hate snow and really cold weather. Ironically, I've just spent a week in New Hampshire with nothing but snow and cold weather...and for the record, the heat is not on if you have it set for 60 degrees... 2. I believe in God, but I don't believe in forcing myself to go to church. I feel like I've seen too many people play the good Christian on Sunday whi
