Okay girls....here's the bottom line....This old gal doesn't let life get her down cause if you do then you are defeated before you start. So I say go down kickin fightin and saying.....what a ride! And that' how I see my life right now. Either sit around and mope and whine about the bad decision I've made or pull up my big girl pants and deal with it!
So, we are dealing with it. It's scary, it's tough and at the same time it's exciting and I'm so ready.
So we are loadin up the kitties....
Loadin up the pillows.....
Packin up the mirrors, the mercury glass and the mannequin....
The good news is that we are not going to waste time and be somewhere we don't want to be. So, I'm here at the beach with Mr. Sissie and we found a very nice townhouse to lease while our home in WV sells.
Looks like I'm gonna be busy, again. I just got rid of all the boxes from the move and now I'll be getting some more, but I'm happy about it! I try to look at it as a chance to decorate with a clean slate, an open mind and an open heart.
So, here I go....get outta my way obstacles....I got no use for you and will not have mercy on you if you keep gettin in my way. I'm tough, I'm strong and most of all I' m not afraid!!! Do I hear an Amen????
I've learned so much this past year about what's really important. It's not a big, gorgeous custom built home, had that and it was wonderful until I realized that the upkeep was killing me.... it's not the most beautifully decorated room, it's not the most popular blog, it's not a gazillion creative ideas....it's being with the ones you love and being comfortable with the decisions you've made....that's it. Simple, um?
So I hope you will travel along with me on my next adventure. The best part is that I always take you with me whereever I go and for that I'm so thankful! Amen Sistas, Amen!!!
~~Happy Hugs~~

Many blessing for you and your family as you start an exciting adventure!!
Oh My Goodness!! You go girl!!
You have what it takes!!
You GO, Sissie!! that's a big AMEN!!
You can't get rid of me....I'm with you all the way!!
I'm with you, Sissie. I wouldn't miss this adventure for anything! Come on, don't stop. Keep going. I'm there with you all the way. Just waiting to see what comes next and how you'll deal with it. I think it's wonderful that you're not letting any of this get you down. Because a lot of people would not deal well with a situation like this one. But not you from what I read here. It's marvelous and you are setting a very good example here. Your energy is contagious and that's a good thing.
Good attitude Sissie! Hope your home sells fast and you can resettle where you are the happiest. ~Hugs, Patti

A hearty AMEN from up north Sissie!! We love ya for what you are girl! FUll of fun ideas & spunk :) You are sooo right...we came to the realization about blog stress ourselves....and it is soooo not worth it! Our resolution this year was to blog for ourselves, not to impress others (not that we did THAT great of job anyway ~ lol!!)
Looks like you are off to a fantastic start on the beach (so jealous!!) Looking forward to seeing where the new year takes you!

We are all with you Sissie xx
You are a true inspiration, Sissie, I love your attitude and your joie de vivre, whatever life chucks at you. Fingers crossed that everything will go according to plan from now on. xx
Sweet Sissie, I admire you for going for want you want, bravely and with no regrets. Praying for your house to sell quickly so you can move on to your next adventure. We will be here right along with you. You have me thinking that times awastin' and we need to go for our dreams and see where they lead.
Bigs hugs, Pam
Good luck to you!! The best way to get through any change is with a positive attitude, and you sure have one!
Take care,
Pam
I live in WV right now and it has changed so much in the last 10 years and not for the good. I can't wait til Hubby retires and we can go somewhere else. It is such a shame since this was a great place to live at one time. Good Luck.
Your such a strong lady so I know you will fly like an eagle where ever your wings take you.
Love
Maggie
