Another Fallen Alumni RIP
Death sucks. We're born, we live, we die..fact of life. It's a never ending circle of life. Death never gets easier - I don't care what your therapist says. I've been dealing with death since the age of 3. And I am convinced my high school is cursed with the grim reaper as the mascot...not the pirate. I can't even keep track anymore of all of the fallen SHS alumni and those who didn't make it to graduate. Every year it's not just one or two...it's 3-4 or 6.. this shit is crazy. Your friends and classmates are not supposed to be dying off when you're still in your late 20's and 30s...this happens when we actually get old...older. I mean who's next? Could be anyone of us...we never know. It puts shit in perspective real quick, you know? I mean I was bummed I didn't make it to reggae fest this weekend, and bummed I missed Matt's bday...all the while people are dying. You could say life's not fair, but is it? We live and learn. How we live determines what we learn and how we grow...If it wasn't for death how would we appreciate the little time we have with each other?
Dying never gets eaiser to deal with and hearing about the news of a fellow classmate never gets eaiser.. you would think by now we would all be numb to the fact we have lost so many. No, sir. My mouth still drops, breathing is hard, the heart skips a beat, my throat has that stupid lump in it, and then I cry behind close doors. How precious life really is. . . I am so grateful to be alive today. Grateful for my mom. Grateful for my family and my cousin Ang who is my sister. Grateful for Matt and Drake. Grateful for my friends who are here and who have passed. But we must keep swimming. Keep trucking along. Keep living for ourselves and for those who can't. Keep loving. Loving ourselves, others, and the planet. And with that...I ask you all to pick up the phone today and tomorrow and everyday and call one person to just say hey dude, I love you. before it's too late. RIP Joe Croom.
Much Love.

My first TRUCK
EEEEK!!! I. AM. SO. FREAKIN'. EXCITED......
My very own big ass truck!!! I've been talking and wanting to trade my POS bug in for some time now... and Friday between work I did! Tim at Bogue Auto Sales was awesome!!! We looked around...trucks, suv's...then out of the corner of my eye.. i saw her.. she was big and beautiful!!! Tim asked if I wanted to test drive her...love at first lift! lol. Now, I'll give you a visual of me at the dealership..prob why my picture wasn't taken lol.. I had just gotten out of the water from teaching SUP Yoga...I was still wet, short shorts, flatwaters shirt with wet boob prints.. hot mess! After I drove it..that was it! Let the paperwork begin!!!!
So, I've had her for the weekend and I am so in love! Still figuring her out..but it's awesome! I even washed her yesterday!!! YOu know how long it has been that I've had windows that WORK?!?! and their tinted!! woohoo.
It's definitely an adventure backing up and driving thru parking lots, but I Loooove being the biggest truck in the lot most days! It even has a tool box in the back! Granted Drake cannot jump in and out of it, and there's no step, so ladies please remember if wearing a dress in my new ride, bring panties...and no heels.. maybe I need to get a waiver to ride with me.. hmmmm.
So, now if you are moving, I have a truck.
If you're driveway is flooded, I can help.
Oh it's snowed, I have 4 wheel drive.
oooh you wanna drive on the beach..i can do that too.
hmmm wanna go watch the Mudbog..I'll drive!
Now all that's left is for Matty to get his hands on her and pimp her out a lil for me...I've already been eyeballing a pink bowtie and a sticker that reads "silly boys, trucks are for girls", and maybe a new cd/DVD player....
Yeah, it's gonna to eat gas, but I have a truck! A big ass beast truck. Kim calls it Butch...but I'm not set on a name yet...any suggestions?
cheers
