Okay here  I am updating and creating more photo collages, think I am getting pretty good! Well this work week is done and so needed the time off. I have yet to get my tail in gear and focus on my goals for the year. But I think this week, I am going to start. We need to paint the house, get a few things for the house and work on the yard.  I know, I know baby steps but I am going to get myself motivated. Let’s hope!

Christmas 2009

I learned something new the other day, messing around on the computer and noticed a new option, with my computer. I only wish I would have found this sooner. Good tip for sharing photos on my blog.  Here is my first photo collage.  I hope you enjoy!  I’m pretty proud of myself.

Dinner at Las Vegas at MGM.

 

So it had been like 16-17 years since I have seen this girl. We were high school friends inseperatable. We fought and had fun together, like all teenage girls. We were the best of friends. Offered each other advice on clothes, boys, sports, and studied for ou classes. We both moved away our senior years. She moved to Dallas, I moved to Corpus. We lost touch and this was before email, facebook, etc. I would get a phone call here and there. But never really followed through to ever meet up. But last year I joined FB and low and behold we reconnected and have spoken to one another non stop. I love Michelle Jane, she is a rare breed. I feel as I can be myself and not have her judge me. We get each other after all this time. When we had dinner it was as time stood still and I was 15-16 years old and nothing changed. You hear about those types of situations, but don’t believe it. Well it happened to me. It did, and there were no uncomfortable moments of silence. It was never awkward. Anyways, here are a few pictures of me and my friend Michelle. I am so proud of her. She has made her self into a succesful business woman. Then again, I never had a doubt she wouldn’t be successful in anything she sought after. Good Friends are hard to find, and I am glad I found her again..

Fight Night "Mayweather vs Marquez

 

 We acted silly, then when the end was near it was bitter sweet. But I think I am going to go see her in Plano sometime this year.. It will be alot of fun, day trips are in order. I think it will be good for both of us. 

Last picture before we say goodbye....

I'm tired....

 

At times I think to myself, working nights is a good thing. Then I come home after working 12 hours, literally exhausted. Then I’m staggering to take a shower, eat breakfast, brush my teeth, etc. Then it hits me. I am no longer 25 years old and my body can no longer endure the sleepless nights, and groggy days. I think this is going to be the year that certain things become clearer for me. In other words, that it’s time to hang up the engineering gig . It’s a sad thing, since I have been there 12 years, and after Feb. It will be 13. Crazy how time flies. It’s time to simplify and change. It’s better it be on my terms though. Well, we will see what unfolds. I need to get my resumé out there again. Wish me luck! Another thing I used Meagan’s pic to show that I am not the only one bearing the grunt of off shift hours… Poor Baby….

trying to keep my balance..

So I was talking to my sister Sara, who lives in Seattle, Wa. I am getting the travel bug and it seems like I need to get away. I want to go to Las Vegas again. But maybe Seattle will do. Who knows. Then again, I have some friends that live in Dallas and Houston that I could go see…but the drive is a beeouch!  So, my point is, I went to see my sister last year never did post pics….so I guess I finally will. I am trying to get better about blogging….so here u go loyal followers.

Other than shopping and good eating, I never saw anything too weird for my taste in Seattle. It was nice weather, killer shopping centers. Hell, they have a Nordstrom’s in every corner. Sara has one in her back yard. But I want to head out to the west coast again sometime soon. All I can say is, I love Texas, but when your flying in to Seattle and you see the bay area, you can’t help but think, What have I been doing my whole life in Texas. I can see why Sara loves it up there……

Wedding 2005

 Five Years ago I was getting ready to walk down the aisle to begin an exciting new chapter of my life. I married my best friend, a man who would be so understanding, loving, supportive, and most importantly, my husband. I spent my life wondering if my prince was out there, b/c let’s face it I dated some toads. But on April 1o, 2001 I went on my first date and then the rest is all history. I love you Tom, and here’s  to many more anniversaries, trips, memories, and maybe, just maybe to some kids to add to the mix.

My Love

 

Bel/Sar-2009

Christmas came and went and I am glad it is over. It seems like the only good thing about Christmas is that you get to spend it with the ones you love. My sister Sara came home for the holidays. She lives in Seattle and she wanted to come home to Texas for family time. It was great to see her and I was able to see my nephews. Boy, time flies and I see that they are growing up, and think to myself, ” Where did the time go. It seems like yesterday my Joshua was in diapers in a high chair sitting at the dinner table. My other nephew Jason was a plump little red-headed boy and always smiling with his happy eyes. Now he is still red-headed, but he sure does talk a lot. He reminds me of what it is like to be a kid, curious and always want to see what will happen if I do this or that. We Limon’s tend to learn things the hard way, or shall I say “Our way” like Frank use to say.  Here are some pics of the boys…stole these from Sister’s FB page. I can’t seem to find my camera?

Meaggy on new bed...

 

Summer is here and we are sooo ready for the cool  Fall weather to arrive, nothing really to report only that since I last posted, we had a few Birthdays come and go. Jason-Daniels 6yr  milestone and Jude-Alexander’s first milestone…He is one years old! Wow how time flies, it really makes you feel alot older and also makes you wonder ok, two roads ahead which one I want to take. One nice and predictable, the other unexpected, not so predictable and well, really as me thinking. So alot of soul searching these past few months. Did  I ever figure out, well I guess we will see!

Daddy's Girl

Daddy's Girl

Meaggy turns 4 today, I can’t believe how time has passed. I remember the first day we got her. She really chose us. There was another dog there that was a bit rounder, bigger eyes, but sadly he was a boy. We wanted a girl, So Meaggy sees us looking at her brother and then walks up to Tom and lifts her head, and that’s all it took. She then preceded to walk around us, as she was deciding whether or not she wanted to come home with us. The ride home was a big surprise as she never cried or wimpered. She slept the whole night in her crate, of course now she’s taken over our bed. Although today Meaggy has full reign of the house. We are glad to have our girl in our lives. We had some close calls with her eating socks, underwear and grass, and toys. But we are very fortunate to have her here today, and hoping for a really long time. She is the sweetest dog, and Tom and I value each day with her. We love her so much b/c even after the hardest day, when you see those precious eyes glancing at you…it makes you not sweat the small stuff. Happy Birthday baby girl! We love you!
