Holiday Traditions

".....Ho ho the mistletoe is hung where you can see, somebody waits for you, kiss her once for me....." Happy holidays my pet! Today I wanna talk about holiday traditions and which ones do you hold dear. When I was younger for some odd reason I was obsessed with mistletoe. No reason why I'm just an oddity. Yet I always made sure to hang it in the doorway and I thrived on catching people under it and making them share that kiss. I will say though I'm quite proud to say I'm 34 and NEVER got caught under the mistletoe. Yep my pet I'm that good haha. As I grew up though that tradition died off and now I'm probably more into the giving, the magic, and reminding people what Christmas is all about. There are so many traditions out there though, and with so many different beliefs the possibilities seem endless. Each culture, each religion, every generation has their own set of traditions new and old. I see many with kids involve that whole elf on a shelf deal, which frankly creeps me out. I see family gatherings and photos every year. Trips to see Santa. There's church gatherings and nativity scenes. Lights galore and decorations beyond belief. There's prayers, hopes, and dreams for that Christmas miracle. There's birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and sometimes sadly a goodbye. Holiday traditions have long existed and will always be. It makes us who we are at this time of year and what makes every family, every person special. So my pet what traditions do you follow? Have you thought of starting any new ones? Regardless of what you do or don't do, never forget about the love, peace, and magic this time of year brings us all. I'm ending this post here though, wishing you my greatest secret my dear pet a happy and joyful holiday season just in case my return is delayed. Stay you and stay true!

Just Me :)

Hello again my pet! I'm feeling a bit restless today and itching to write so guess what two posts today. I realized something, I know you by heart but what do you really know about me. I mean sure I've dropped a few tidbits here and there but is that enough, nah I don't think so haha. So get comfy and let me say a little more about myself. First off I'm a summer and Kentucky born girl who has lived in this town her whole life. I'm currently 34 as I write this but looking at me, most believe I lie about my age. I love animals minus a few types. I'm vegetarian and extremely picky. I also hate eating in front of people. I have two pretty nasty chronic illnesses that screw up both my body and head. I've been married and divorced twice and therefore realized I'm completely unlovable and no longer believe in the concept of it all. I'm difficult, broken, and a complete mess. Yet I can be dependable, helpful, and kind to all. I'm totally addicted to Snoopy and that's one thing that will always make me smile. I also have an odd obsession with black leather and I can't get enough of olive garden. I love to read and would rather do nothing but reading. I enjoy sappy love songs but occasionally just hearing soft music like a piano is nice. I have pets currently a cat, bird, and a fish. I enjoy writing hence this blog even though I stink at it. I'm crazy and unique, you'll never meet another like me that's for sure. I always try to live a good life but I do mess up I'm human after all yet I learn from those mistakes. I like making new friends regardless of ages, as long as you're a decent person I'll be your friend. Spring is my favorite season, fresh cut pineapple my favorite food, and killer whales my favorite animal. Rainbows are very dear to me, ask and I'll gladly say why. I have tattoos and color my hair crazy colors but that doesn't define who I am. Who I am is a crazy, mixed up, semi sweet semi rotten individual who you'll either love to love or love to hate, either way I guarantee you'll have a hard time forgetting me. All right my pet I think that's enough rambling about myself for today. Till next time stay true and stay you my pet!

Motivation

Greetings my pet, how are you today? I was sitting here in my crazy yet lonely little world thinking about what motivates people, kinda like a life goal. For some I know that means the usual getting married and raising a family, which definitely isn't my motivation given that I'm 100% completely unlovable (two failed marriages proof of it). Anywho I'm getting off topic I apologize my pet. I think if I had to pick what motivates me I'd have to say my life long dream of writing a children's book. Do I have the talent for it? That I cannot answer. Would anyone read it or like it if I did succeed in writing it? That I wouldn't care, I simply wish to write a book hold it in my hands and say I did this. Yet I haven't because of self doubt and fear. Those two pesky things seem to keep so many people from being motivated from goals. Yet why? What if instead of being afraid we actually tried and what if we succeeded in that goal? What if we believed enough in ourselves that we surpass any little goal we set and then find ourselves motivating others to succeed. Thing is we never really truly know until we try. Perhaps one day we each will finally get the spark of motivation we need to try and reach that one big life goal we each secretly hold in our hearts. I myself have several starts of my story laying around, it's just a matter of sitting down and finishing it. I just need the right motivation to do this, or I just need to finally believe I can. So my pet tell me, what is your goal and what motivation do you need to reach it? I believe in you I always will because remember you are my greatest secret and for that I'll always encourage you. So perhaps together we can motivate each other and that motivation will start a chain reaction in the world. So until next time my pet, stay true to yourself and I will return another day!
