My   Holiday   Bucket   List: Write and mail a letter to Santa... Have an Advent Calendar (preferably from Germany) Go and have my picture taken with Santa Claus String Popcorn (I've never done it) Go see the Christmas Lights at Fort Wilderness See the Candle Light Procession See it Snoap in Celebration See the Castle Lighting (haven't seen it in a few years) See the Osbourne Family Christmas Lights Make handmade Christmas cards Not skip over Thanksgiving decorating (Yes, there is a holiday between Halloween and Christmas) Be thankful... Well, things are rolling along smoothly with my Holiday Bucket list... A few more of the little gems should be coming off by weeks end... This has been a very different kick off to the Holiday season... Usually by the first we have all of our house decorated but sadly things have been chaotic and I haven't gotten much accomplished on the interior while Mom is just rolling along with the exterior... I want ...

It has been an emotional roller coaster kind of day, but it has been an enjoyable ride... I am finally finding peace over the whole waiting on casting to call... I received the official call for my new temporary role and I am excited for this opportunity... It is really going to give me a place to try it on my own without my Epcot family there to watch over me... (even though they are just a phone call or Instant message away) I plan on learning some new things but showing them what I can do... Mom and I went to the monthly HOA meeting and for the first time I actually enjoyed myself and learned why we have a home owners association and why it is so important... Plus, one of the older guys sand "My Funny Valentine," and dedicated it to all of the ladies... So very sweet... The sweetest thing that happened was that BFF text we knock knock and after I asked who's there he asked if I would be his Valentine and when I didn't respond right away, there was a knock at th...

Alright, so I have to first say I have some of the best friends I could ask for. You know that's true when you blog something one night and the next day people are asking if everything is OK. I love my girls, you know who you are... I want everyone to know that I am fine. Sometimes we struggle with things and we just need to get things out and we have to do it in our way. When we do it's good to know there are others there to lean on, even when  they don't know everything that is going on. So on to much more fun things... Don't you love when you get to feeling better and you are inspired to create? Tonight I got back to making candy like I used to. Tomorrow I will get to give it to others and hope they enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it. Love, peace and share a smile... Musicsongbird

It's been a bit of an emotional day, but it's also been a long few weeks. Being by myself for the past few weeks has been nice but it has also been a bit lonely. I have friends that crave being alone and I will admit it is nice now and then, but I am ready for Mom and my BFF to home again. When you get used to a schedule of sorts it's hard when things change. I have come to many realizations about myself, I am a homebody by nature. Even though I like traveling and exploring, it isn't so fun when you are alone. It's always nice to share those adventures with someone else, to share those memories. I also realized I like doing projects when I have a deadline to meet. I know it bugs my mom to no end but that's how I feel. I am a planner of sorts but when it comes to cleaning, I have mentioned this before, when I clean I also have to organize along the way. I can't do one then the other. Kind of like when I create rice krispee creations. I can't say, I am g...
