Breakfasts are being made and consumed. Coffee is poured, my new iNotebook and I are getting better acquainted, I have found myself a copy of My Sister's Keeper to read.
{{Thank you Lisa for the recommendation....I am absorbed ☟☟☟☟☟..... see!}}

Things have been somewhat disjointed around here...hence my lack luster approach to blogging lately. Thank you for the encouragement to keep the momentum going, for reminding me that tomorrow things will probably look very different{{they did/do}}. I have a few things going on that are testing my patience. At the top of the list is a very defiant He-Devil. He is pushing every boundary. He is standing toe to toe with me, standing over me defying me to 'prove' of all things, the fact that I don't love him! He is begging me to show him how little I care for him! Challenging me to show the world how little he means to me! When he looks at me with those hurt, challenging eyes I am lost. All I want to do is wrap my arms around him and let him know I will never abandon him. That is the fear I see in his eyes. It IS fear of abandonment! He has as much as told me so...everyone has their own story and our stories intertwine. Josh has his own story BUT he is a part of mine. We are a part of each others and of other people's too! Each of us retells, recalls one story in many different ways. We each recall this one differently, I can't give you his version and he can't give you mine. We both are effected differently by the very same event in the very same moment in time.
Sometimes I feel self indulgent being stressed by my relatively small issues, when I know others are dealing with more insanely stressing issues!!! I would ease their pain if I was able. The best I can do is offer assurance, be there to listen when they need to vent, bake outrageously delectable treats to share whilst venting session is in full swing and hope that when I need to vent, someone close to me will be astute enough to recognize that I need a little 'therapy' and drag me to a place where I can vent over delicious treats and a good coffee {because I don't have too many friends who bake so I am happy with a cafe that has a bakery...or a McDonalds McCafe :0) with wifi teehee! I am also grateful for the offer of 'cyber therapy' {{raises a glass in Lisa's direction and pushes aside the empty pie plate ;0) }}!

~AND....to answer a few questions from last weeks SOOC shot~
Is she important to me?
How did I take the shot?
1. The girl in the post is ME!
2. Yes I think I am important to me...I also think I forget this sometimes too!
3. I took the shot using this wedged in my hot little hand,
Whilst this was perched on the desk at the foot of the bed!
Silhouettes and lighting flares are something I have been playing around with lately.
Thanks for dropping by
Cheers
