That's just the way it is, the way it's gonna be. Chalk it up to my older age. Chalk it up to being fed up. Chalk it up to having had enough. Chalk it up to whatever you'd like because this is how it's gonna be. I'm a strong person. I'm a helping person. I'm a put myself AFTER others person. If someone needs to talk, I'm there. If someone needs help, I'm there.

People say I am strong. I even call myself strong. At times though, it can be a blessing and a curse. When you combine it with other things going on in life that have you completely rattled to your core, it tends to be more of a curse than a blessing. In the end though, it usually comes back around to being a blessing.

I felt like I needed to update from my last blog post. I was in a pretty dark place because it had been a rough few weeks and it had taken its emotional toll on me. It takes me a while to work through stuff in my head and get my head back on straight. Earlier this week, I had sworn off any more animals because the heartache and heartbreak gets to be so hard on my heart.

Look at it.
Let it sink in.
This is my life now.
I am getting to know it all too well.
Some days it is my sanctuary from the world.
Quite frankly, some days it hurts like hell.

The holidays are not an easy time for many for one reason or another, myself included, so I thought I would hopefully put a smile on your face by sharing this sweet picture of my Thanksgiving babies with their momma all decked out for Christmas.

Ah grief. That thing that never leaves you. That thing that sneaks up on you when you plan on having a good day and it decides otherwise. That tricky lil buggar that is supposed to be "cured" the more time goes on. Grief. The reality is that it never leaves you. When you lose someone that means so much to you, the grief you feel from losing them is with you every single day.

This weekend, while at the store, we ran into a friend of my hubby's and his little boy. The little boy was an avid animal lover and we were talking about all the animals we both had, which was A LOT. We walked out to the parking lot still talking about animals and how amazing they are and we said our goodbyes. That was when I learned his name. Owen. I almost cried.

TV is my escape. I look forward to all my shows starting their new seasons in the Fall. Well, I used to..... This Fall I have noticed a change in many of my favorite shows and I couldn't figure out what the heck happened and why things felt different all of the sudden. I felt my excitement fade and I wasn't even caring if I missed several of my favorite shows.

I have never been one for taking prescription drugs. I just don't like it, don't trust it, don't want it. My mom is the same way. The most I ever take is two Aleve for headaches or elbow pain and I really don't even like doing that. Over the past several years, I have been into the natural and herbal remedies for things. I would much rather start there and see if something natural works for BeHappyBeSweetBeYouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16623005163322051801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475511983361322743.post-88965647377815281482018-10-05T11:28:00.001-04:002018-10-08T14:37:18.801-04:00A Little Over Four Years......I haven't blogged for a little over four years.

Rescue dogs aren't like other dogs. They have a story. It's usually a sad story, but it's their story. Through their sadness they are able to find strength, and an appreciation for their life that is unlike anything you've ever seen. They will sit and they will wait day after day, sometimes for weeks. They will see so many faces on a daily basis and see so many friends just like them, with BeHappyBeSweetBeYouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16623005163322051801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475511983361322743.post-46858636545764962862014-09-12T10:18:00.001-04:002018-10-08T15:37:52.300-04:00Today is a Good Day
Today is a much better day. I owe it all to my horse, Trader. I got to spend a longer time with him last night and it got my mind back in check. He is seriously my therapist. Without any words being spoken, just a walk in the field with my boy, a nuzzle, a hug, taking in his smell, and all is right with the world. I don't know what I did before I had horses.

Do you have something that has happened in your life and you just can't seem to get over it? I do. It happened years ago, but it still haunts me. I think about it every single day. Most days I am able to push it to the back of my mind and be ok. Some days I can't. This time there is a trigger so it makes sense why it is haunting me. That still doesn't make it any easier to deal BeHappyBeSweetBeYouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16623005163322051801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475511983361322743.post-87063922559263906732014-09-05T10:21:00.001-04:002014-09-05T10:21:23.370-04:00Funny Stumblings
I always find it humorous when I am browsing the internet for something else, or just messing around and something pops up that hits home with my life!! It's like finding a lil gold nugget!! :) I posted the other day about being frustrated and regretting that "the" plan we had didn't work out. It is still such a bummer.

Seems simple enough, right?? We all have a pretty good idea about what we love to do. I love riding my horses, being with my horses, doing anything related to my horses, being artsy, drawing, painting, drinking coffee, watching movies, listening to music, laughing, being silly, shopping, going to the zoo, going to corn mazes.

Move on already. It started out at a good place, sorta a second place place, but whatever. It was real and it was fun while it lasted. You got something outta the deal that you never would have, and we got something outta the deal too. Then life happened and it wasn't working anymore. It's not like you put up much of a fight, so that must mean deep down you felt it too.

As far as I'm concerned, you forfeited everything. You don't have a say. You don't have time. You don't have a clue. I am so beyond done with your convenience bullshit. I have zero tolerance for you anymore. You are so wrapped up in your own life and your own lies that you have missed out on everything. Even when you say you're going to change, you don't.
