sometimes you get some news you can hardly bare,
it feels like your heart just got a big fat tear
how could it be, is it really true.
i just don't know but now i'm really blue

i wonder why its been kept a secret from me
why couldn't the truth be told for all to see
there's darkness in everyone with truths untold
but light shines through simply if you are bold
Sometime the truth is hard and will leave a sting
but lies create wounds that just keep bleeding

i wonder why i was left in the dark so long
i just want to cry surly this is wrong.

i guess this teaches that all may say
but don't believe because it could change any day
your world of confusion comes to an end
with your known "truths" all in a bend
nothing quite is how you think it is
your mind just spinning in a fiz

i want to believe that all are honest
and i will continue to do my hardest

surely there cant be bad in all
but i might have formed a wall.
its hard to trust when your truths are gone
and your life feels like its full of cons
stealing your trust and stability
can all this really be reality

i hope the lie is just another lie
otherwise i'll surely cry

Diet Coke

Laying in bed I start to hear

The sounds of the city coming near

This means the day is beginning

and all of a sudden I just start grinning.

Waking up means just one thing

And makes me almost want to sing,

As I stumble out of bed

I probably look like I’ve just come back from the dead

I make my way down the hall

Still wishing I was just curled up in a little ball

But alas, I make it and its time

To commit what some say is a crime

I smile as I hear the pop then fizzle

i slowly pour and see it sizzle

Cool crisp and refreshing

One small sip - such a blessing

Sip after sip the tingly sensation

Oh my goodness what a creation

With each gulp I come alive

Ready for the day I surely can last till five.

Oh Diet coke how I love you I could cry

You are the most glorious thing in my eye

Now there is just one last thing I must address

How some thinkl diet coke isn’t the bes’

I hear people say there is no difference

And I just laugh at their silly ignorance

They think Pepsi is just as good,

Really? They belong in the hood

These crazy people don’t they understand

Pepsi should be on contraband.

It isn’t good it belongs in the bin

Drinking Pepsi is absolutely a sin.

...  more to come ...

Back in the day..

This week Alicia and I have been talking tons and i LOVE it.. It's been an interesting week loosing an old friend and has stimulated a lot of "remember when" conversations.. Well I couldn't sleep again tonight so i started digging through old pictures, lots of fun and FUNNY!!

to Chase!

 Dear Chase,
I love your face!
I didn't forget you work for Udot
they just frustrate me ALOT
but now that i understand
about chip crew, tar, gravel and sand
I'll stop my whining
through  silly rhyming
and learn to appreciate
because your just so great!

On Friday, I went with Chase to the DR. to see if his face had healed enough he could play soccer again. After waiting over an hour to see the doctor, I started to make a fuss and whine to the nurses.. I even made up a little song, chase didn't like that so much, he closed the door so the nurses wouldn't hear me.. apparently I'm embarrassing.. HAHA gotta love that.. 

Anyways, on the way home (of course via the Apple store) we expierenced the joys of UDOT and summer construction.. I started making up a poem about it how i hate udot.. Chase liked it so i told him i'd finish it and dedicate it to him.. So here you go buddy..


Attention UDOT
you suck... ALOT
Every summer with out fail
you turn driving into hell.
Every major road i want to take,
you have a project and what a mess you make!
Piles of dirt, cones and tractors everywhere,
and ugly workers that just like to stare.
Why cant you think and work logically
ahhh UDOT you make us all mad, cant you see?

We wish you'd finish one project before you start another
every road has construction ahhhh oh brother!
The worst is the ornery stop sign man,
he just stands and glares as he drinks his coke out of the can,
I wouldn't mind this little delay
but the this happens everyday!

I hope that one day Udot will make a change,
and actually fix the roads across Wasatch range.
Then we will be able to drive in peace
and all the traffic will decrease!
I'll be able to make appointments on time
oh and that will be oh so sublime!
Now lets all just hope and pray
that UDOT will stop all the delay!

Great Great Great Grandpa's Cabin

This morning I got to visit my great great great grandfathers two-story cabin that is on the national Register of Historic Places in Summerfield Louisiana!

Nancy Wasson arrived in North Louisiana from Alabama in the 1800’s she and her husband, Alberry Wasson, built a home and planted their roots. It took them two years to build their home and completed it around 1850. They grew cotton, ran a saw mill, and owned a craft store  [apparently it runs in the family].

Here is the street sign leading up to the cabin. The street is named after them!

Here is my great great great grandpa’s carriage.  My uncle Tony tried to tell me it's like the Amish buggys, but I quickly corrected him that Ididn't have any Amish blood! [ for those of you that don't know… Amish buggy's creep me out !...they look like the creepy buggy in Beauty in the Beast that takes away Bell's papa.. or a coffin on wheels.. or a jail cell.. anyways..]

Out and about in Savannah

Today I spent the morning in Savannah Georgia. What a beautiful city! I loved all the big trees, old houses and the cobble stone roads by the river.

I
