So for anyone who is wondering, I am 100% American, living in Canada. I love the country I live in, BUT am so in love with my country. I am & will always be an American. That's just how it is. I would never sit & badmouth Canadians, but tonight, they piss me off. It comes down to the great game of hockey. I suppose I should give a little background on my hockey lifetime....
I did not grow up loving the game that I completely adore now. In fact I was never introduced until Jeff, my first husband, introduced me to the San Jose Sharks way back in 2002. I believe this was directly after the Nation Hockey League lock out, I think. I still wasn't really 'into' hockey the way Jeff was, but tolerated him watching it on occasion (because in the USA hockey is not televised the way it is in Canada). Jeff goal was to get me to a real live Sharks game. Unfortunately that was to never happen before he died.
After Jeff passed away hockey was the last thing on my mind, UNTIL I met, fell in love & married my man from Canada. Jason loves and lives for hockey, as does most of this country. When I moved up north I fell in love with this sport too! It's the most entertaining sport to watch, EVER! I love it.
I cheer for the San Jose Sharks, that's how I roll. Was my first team... because i had to, & now it's my team cause that's how I'm rolling. I like to be difficult, I guess you should all know that about me. I'll say it again for all of you, I LIKE to be DIFFICULT! So I cheer for a team that's not in canada, that most Canadians don't cheer for, that I have come to love & adore! I'm passionate bout this team.
There are certain times when a 'team Canada' will verse a 'team USA' and that's when I straight up say, NO WAY NO HOW... it's all the USA..... I don't trash talk Canada's team, I just cheer BIG for USA.. ...
Well today was one of those days when USA lost to Canada, & let me tell you... most of the people I know are total jerks to me... it's almost like they expect me to cheer for Canada. Well for those people who think that they can shove it up their butts! I'm American, all American, eill always be 7 have no intentions of cheering for a Canadian team over an American team. I guarantee if any of you were in my boat you'd be the same!

~bit by bit
See, there are some changes happening. I suppose my main goal of 2011 is to get back into writing & sharing my life. Besides, what is this life if it's not shared?
It was a month or so back when my husband said to me that I needed to "simplify" my life. The very next day I sat down & thought about it, and that is just what I am making happen. I was busy this fall I didn't know which way was up. It was super stressful & it made me super sad. I didn't want to lay in bed thinking about what I couldn't possibly get done the next day. So something had to give right then & there... I choose to give up having a home based direct sales business. That has been one of the best decisions of my life. Although it was supposed to be a fun venture where I could make some extra cash, I hated it. So I dropped it. It felt oh so good.
In the mean time I am making some major changes to my small photography business and looking forward to simplifying that part of my life. I'll share with you whats twirling in my brain with these ideas! I think you'll love it.
As I was "simplifying" I got to thinking about what I was missing in my life that I wanted back, something to help me 'simplify'. Well... I missed blogging. I missed writing. I missed reading blogs. I missed it. Call it an addiction, but I love sharing in other peoples lives over the miles.
Now onto other duties in my "simplification" (is that a word?) of my life....
How do I simplify this??

~that in which I swear......
I don't normally like to say "bad words" & I wont actually publish the actual word written out on this blog today, But for today I'm ready to lay my feelings all out on the line... Being brutally honest as to how I feel.
Today is where I explain that April 28, 2003 is the day that I was given the right to tell my critics, the people who don't like how I'm living my life, the people who decide to gossip & call me weird, the people who think they have it all right in life, this is where I tell them to F*@k off.
I know I may lose some readers by saying this, but I need to get it out there.
I need you, whoever you are, to know that I closed down my blog & made it private for a few months because a usedtobefriend told one of my sons NEW friends down the street to be very careful letting her son play with my son because i write weird stuff on my blog, so that makes me weird. Guess what usedtobefriend? It's my blog & it's my life & because I lived & loved & now tell my story of widowhood & life thereafter I can tell you to F-off!
There you have it. I'm back to blogging. I love to blog. Actually, it's not just blogging that I love to do, it's writing, it's getting my feelings written & it's people hearing me who don't think I'm weird! So this time, for real, look for more blogs coming soon, cause thats just the way I swing! Hopefully usedtobefriends just stay away & let me live my life!

~Wierd
A little birdie came & told me the other day that a certain someone says I'm "wierd" when it comes to what I put on my blog. GUESS WHAT? It's MY BLOG & I can write what I WANT! So please, you know who you are, please stay off my blog!
Because of you some children who had a chance to become really good friends, no longer have that chance! You know who you are!
Also, this blog will be going "private" very soon, before I write again. If you would like to keep reading, please comment on this post with your e-mail address!
