It's Here! It's Here!


So glad Autumn is finally here! It's my favorite time of year. I can almost smell the burning leaves, feel the warmth from the bonfires and taste the roasted marshmellows in my mouth (I like mine burnt!).
I just finished up two more classes at The Art Institute of Pittsburgh. Still can hardly believe I am going to college at 51 years old! I made an A in my first class. Right now, I have an A in drawing and a B in Computer Literacy (that class kicked my butt on a few things), but the final grades are not in yet. I really learned just how computer illiterate I am, but I can say after taking that class I am not quite as computer illiterate as I once was. So far, my drawing class has been my favorite class. I enjoyed it immensely. I used to love to draw when I was younger, but really haven't attempted it in many years. I hope to keep it up even though the class is over. I am not near as accomplished as a lot of the people in my class were, but it is something I have always enjoyed doing. Anyway, gotta run. Have lots to do. Maybe I will post some of my drawings I did in class. Then again, maybe not. ;-)
Happy Fall!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, MY LOVE!~

Thirty years ago today, October 7, 1978, I was in a white dress and veil walking down the isle to say I do to the love of my life, Donnie. Just months before, I had broken off an engagement with another guy that I had dated for probably 1.5 years. Donnie had also just been through a prior fairly long relationship where there had been talk of marriage. It is at this time of my reminiscing that I am glad that those prayers I prayed to God to be with the one prior to Donnie went unanswered. Donnie, too, had prayed and prayed about being with his prior girlfriend. They had planned to grow old and gray together and he was quite devastated when she broke things off with him, but you see, God had another plan… It started one night when my sister wanted me to go with her to her boyfriend, Melvin’s church to meet a friend of his. She was telling me how goodlooking she thought this guy was and how she felt we would be perfect for each other. I still wasn’t over my boyfriend, but I went along wit...

Tonight...

I have learned why I have pretty much become a hermit and keep to myself. I obviously don't have sense enough to socialize or be in public. I never seem to say the right things. Is there not anybody out there that understands me and won't judge me? Is there anybody I can talk around without fear of saying the wrong thing and being misunderstood? That knows me well enough to know I do not have a mean bone in my body, and that knows I am a good person, a person worth knowing. I am repeatedly told I get too involved. If I do, it's because I care. Why does that always have to be such a bad thing? We went to Wal-Mart today to pick up a few things. My son and daughter were with me. He kept getting on to me for getting in people's way. I was oblivious. They were getting angry with me. It sux to be sick and not have a brain anymore. I will be driving and have blank-outs. Notice I did not say black out, I said blank-out. Everything I know will just leave me, my mind just goes bl...
