Fabulous!

Okay, so a few of my crazy friends and I went to the Midnight showing last night of the "Sex and the City" movie! It was awesome, of course. Yes, we cried - yes, it plays with your emotions as did the Series and I absolutely loved every minute of it!! The clothes/fashion were spectacular and of course a little over the top, the shoes were to die for and the ladies are just as beautiful as ever.

I'm really happy that we went and thankful for having a friend like Betsy to share these memories with. Her sister, Bev was an absolute beautiful riot all night and her friend Melissa was a total pleasure to meet (and she's pregnant!!) Talk about die-hards, huh??

Thank you to Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda for bringing the four of us together last night, for sneaking Bev's "Perfect Cosmo's" into the theater and for making us all laugh, cry and just be. :o)

Changes

2008 has been an interesting year, to say the least. There have been quite a few changes in my life and in the lives of so many others so far and it is only May! An interesting thing - I was talking about this with someone a few months ago and about a month after we had this discussion we were talking about our friendship and how it had changed and how that made us both feel. It is interesting how certain individuals are brought into and out of our lives and why. Why were we friends for only 6 years and why did I feel that it was time to move on? A good friend of mine, Lucy Loew , once told me that friends are here for a reason, a season or for life. That will always stay with me and it makes complete sense.

It isn't for me to completely understand why things happen the way they do and in fact is probably good as I can't control everything and these kinds of "things" keep me in check. It also doesn't make sense to simply stay friends with someone just because or because you have already known each other for so long. If that person is no longer good for you or isn't a good influence then why stay friends with them? I have always struggled with saying goodbye in friendships - who wouldn't?

Anyway, there it is. Changes. They are happening and whether they be good, bad or what ever, there they are. And there they always will be.

Beginnings

And so it begins. I have been craving to start my very own blog for some time now. I've checked out quite a few and always enjoy reading others ideas, thoughts, ideals, etc. I believe now is the time for my own blog to begin. For my own new beginning and for a new creative outlet that I have never before explored.

I'd like to share with everyone a wonderful site that has been pretty inspiring to me and has also kept me on track with my goals. It is http://www.43things.com/. This site was shared with me about 3 years ago and I have kept up with updating my entries, changing/adding goals, etc. It's a lot of fun and almost like a blog but with more of a goal-oriented purpose. Check it out!

I'm going to keep my first post short and sweet so as not to overwhelm but really want to thank all of the inspiring people out there in the world who make each day unique and full of life. Each day I realize how lucky I am to be living the life that I do and although some days are hard and other days are full of obstacles - the world never ceases to amaze me. Thank you world!
