So does anyone remember that song by Madonna called Keep it Together? I don't know why that song keeps popping up in my head, but it's all about life being a family affair & keeping it together - meaning, no matter what happens in life you got to keep the family together!!! Which poses an interesting insight to me.
What is family to you? For some people, it's the people who biologically created you & raised you along with any siblings you may have. Or it may be the people you surround yourself with every day & not necessarily a blood relative. Point in case -I absolutely love & adore my family, but I absolutely love my true friends & they might as well be my family because I'd do anything for them.
I really think that if my husband had a choice, he wouldn't claim his family at all (trust me, we've talked about this). But I really don't know what I'd do without my friend Tex. The reason I bring her up is that she makes me appreciate the fact that I have her in my life. Not in the she calls me up & tells me to appreciate her kind of way, but in the & I quote 'Hey, are you ever going to blog again? I know you have stuff going on in your life!' I love & appreciate her & the question because it makes me feel like I am important to more than one person other than my calico cats. Plus I just treasure our friendship.
Also, my friend Melissa will email me or call me & let me know she read my blog. Insert HUGE HAPPY FACE. She cares enough to stay in contact & I can say for sure that Melissa is one cool cat that I would love to have in my life for a very long time. I blog to release & I am finally enjoying it. Granted I have been working full time & don't really get to get on here as much. It's like I am having a blog affair! You know? Or does it seem like I am just rambling?
Ok, ok what I mean is it's like Madonna says, it's a family affair. But in this case it's a blog affair! I love it!!!! I am keeping it together because I know outside my blood relatives I have amy blog/true friends family.
So other things...Husband is leaving for Africa (yes I said Africa) next week. He'll be traveling to the Congo (but then jumping on an oil rig), the Canary Islands (wtf? yes, i am jealous about this one) & then Cairo (as in Egypt). Holy Crazy Travels Batman! That's ok, with my mad play money that I am making, I plan on catching up to him.
Work is awesome. I love it! I've had stupid sinus infections for the past 1.5 weeks, but finally broke down & got some good drugs to alleviate that. Still working out with a trainer but failing miserably with my food! That's ok, my happy head person is steering in the right direction. I think that's about it my Loves! I hope all is well with everyone!!!
