Day 15 - The person you miss the most

How can I list just one person?

 I miss Geoff every day.  It's a constant ache that only ceases when we're in the same place.

 I miss my grandfather.  I miss his smiles and his wisdom.  

 I miss my grandmother and her kindness.

 I miss friends who left this life far too early.

 I miss the girl I was at 21.  Still unsure of what she wanted, but not afraid to enjoy the life she was living.

You have no power over me....

This is a one off because I love the movie Labyrinth and I have found some adorable Labyrinth themed things that I want to place them all in one spot.  Yes, I have a Pinterest but one of these items (the cake) will not allow me to pin it properly, so at least I know I will always be able to find this picture when I beg someone to make it for my future wedding day! (Oh so irritated.  I'm not a tech person so I can not figure out why it won't let me post pictures and why it's only letting me link.  I promise I'm attempting to link the pictures back to the original source!) Oh I want this cake. Actually, everything on her site was adorable.  I'm overusing this word.  But adorable is my word of the day.  I blame Aisha Tyler because she uses it all the time on her podcast. I asked for this last Valentine's Day. I did not get it. I listen to this all the time.  I was working on recording my own video to send to Geoffrey as a gift but ...

Day 12 - Picture of where you live

Image
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...

Day 30 - Me today, and my 3 favorite blogs from this project.

Image
So here I am today...and it's been an incredible month long journey into the mind and life of Krista. (And yes, it's a cell phone picture from my bathroom - but that was the quickest way to get me today.) My favorite blog of this challenge, though it breaks my heart, is the letter. There's so much I left out because how could I possibly capture all of the amazing stories about my grandfather? He was always more of a father to me than my own dad, and every day I am reminded again of how much I've already lost. I can't bear the thought of him being gone, although I know in reality, he's already left us. Number 2 on the list is the one about the person with the biggest impact on me. My son is my world, and writing about him comes easily. Again, there is so much I've left out because there isn't a way possible for me to write exactly how much he means to me - words for that have never been invented. Number 3 is a tie...My Future Husband and My Best Friends. ...
