opposition is a m'effer.

often times i wonder if my feelings are justified. i'm sure it's because when we face opposition we are constantly told we are wrong, and what we feel isn't valid - but it is...and more often than not i let what others think effect me, and i second guess my feelings.  who is to tell me how to feel? my feelings are just that- mine. they don't have to coincide with yours, or get your stamp of approval... they are what i feel.  black and white.  that is all there is to it.  


i think as women, we often second guess ourselves.  the moment someone voices an opinion that disagrees with ours we think "maybe they are right?" maybe it's because we aim to please. maybe it's just because i'm a push over. who knows? 


all i know is i used to be rock solid. stay true to myself, say what i feel, be who i am, and not let anyone tear me down.... but lately i feel torn down. tattered. i really wish i was as strong as i used to be...


on a side note, i can't stop listening to lcd soundsystem, and that really cheers me up. plus- it's the holidays!

fa la la la laaa...

so last night Kurt and I waited in line for 30 minutes to get a fire engine red wii for Jolie for christmas. along with super mario, and I AM SO EXCITED!  she always says how she wishes she had one at dads house,.. so now we do! can't wait for family game night! <3


tis the season... christmas eve-eve, with my family, then christmas with kurts,.. although i think christmas is WAY too commercial and we've kind of lost touch with WHY we celebrate, i think this is going to be one of the best christmas' of my adult life. i've never been a huge fan, but having Jolie and Emma in my life makes it all exciting. 




in other news, i start my EMT courses Jan 3rd, and I'm SUPER excited (and broke after paying for it) but, it's a great decision, and I'm reaadddyy! 


merry christmas/festivus to everyone!! <3 xoxo

doobie doobie dooo..

So, Im enjoying this Monday off, going fishing.. Kurt got laid off, of course right when I start working again. I feel like although we both want to be back in the city SO bad, it feels like its never gonna happen, but Im going to remain optimistic! Im gonna work work work, and as kurt and I both know, working in the union is hit or miss, so keep your fingers crossed.

On another note, I bought and am wearing the worlds warmest flannel, and I fit back in my skinny summer jeans.

Score!
