Some of the Christmas cookies I designed with two of my sisters...the other cookies were too naughty to display...


Today my best friend and I are driving down to Arkansas to visit my mom and my other best friend who is really more a sister. I haven't talked to her in about three years, but I saw her on facebook and said hi. A week later I'm about to drive the 7 hours to go see her. She's as excited as I am! She wants me to be an aunt to her two beautiful daughters, and I can't wait to spoil them! So, that's what's going on today.
That's all folks.

Time Passing

Haven't blogged in a while. Didn't really want to, but a lot has happened. A friend of mine, Kevin, killed himself on Halloween. I have never lost anyone close before, and I hope I go before anyone else, cause I don't think I could handle it again. Kevin was a great guy. He had an amazing smile and a laugh that was...infectious. He was a customer at the cafe, I even started going to his church when he invited me. We laughed, he'd tell me crazy stories. He was a truely wonderful man. He'd sit in the cafe reading his bible and karate magazines and he'd just burst into laughter. Not quiet chuckles, loud, full out laughing, his face going red, his eyes watering. People would glance at him like he was crazy, but I would laugh too as I put away dishes and cleand the grills. He was amazing.
Now he's gone.
