Hey! I miss you sooo much! There are things that have happened over the last few weeks that I would normally have a field day with on this blog, but… Here’s the scoop. You know I write anonymously – for the most part. There are a few people who know who I am and all of them do not have my best interest at heart. It is kind of difficult to write about my intimate feelings and life when I know the haters are lurking. My...
I’m Committed to Being the Best Me
I made a mistake. I was out of line and it is not the first time. I have made numerous mistakes in the past. My logical mind reminds me that once something is said or done; there is no taking it back. If I deem what was said or done a mistake — an error — all I can do is work to rectify the damage done, learn from it and not make the same mistake again.

The Truth Is…
I know… I have been pretty silent about my relationship (or the makings of my relationship) with Cullen. Honestly, I sat down a few times to write, but could not find the words to express how I was feeling or what was going on between us. Ironically, there is SO much going on and I have an abundance of emotions that I could speak to. So why the silence? Well last night while I was talking to him on the phone it came to me. I am...
Aha!
o, I told you before that I had been on a date or two with Cullen and for one reason or another we just weren’t clicking. For the life of me I couldn’t understand why… Our conversations were great, but I didn’t laugh much. He was very intelligent. PAUSE ~ I think intelligence is SO sexy and honestly, I was somewhat intimidated by his ability to educate me on a few things. Seriously, when I think of the man I want in my...
