Little Blessings

Do you ever stop some days and just take a moment to reflect.. 

Today has been one of those days for me.  I realized that I have a pretty great life and that there are little blessings everywhere.  

Like for instance I had a great workout this morning and when i went to my car there was a beautiful bouquet of flowers sitting in my drivers seat from my honey!! (for no reason at all)  YAY...   

Then I went to Walmart to get some stuff and I told the greeter to have a good day.  He stopped and looked at me and then said  "Thanks soo much"  and had a big smile on his face.   I realized he probably doesn't get told that much which is soo sad.   

Two of my friends are pregnant with multiples and they are doing well, due in April 4 days apart from each other

And this past weekend I watched some of my co-workers run a 5k obstacle course for Leukemia.  I made them a poster and cheered them on and they were so happy I came. 

Lastly, My co-worker told me how much she enjoys working with me and that she is so happy to come to work when I'm there.

It truly is the little things in life that make it so great and make us so blessed!! 

As Promised!!

I have cooked all of 3 times on the little tiny Stove!!  LOL  I like where I live, but forgot how loud people who live above you can be, especially when they are having their private time (if you know what I mean)  Thank the lord for Ear plugs!! 

Stop the Presses!!

Today was a new and great experience for me.  

As today is Sunday.... I'll give you one guess as to what I did today........ tick tock tick tock... 

 Yes that's right!!  Kirsty Lyn went to church today!!!  

And I'm glad to report there were no lightening strikes or pitch forks.  LOL   My wonderful friend invited me to go and I actually had a great time.  We sang a ton!!  That was awesome..  Especially since you all know i'm training for American Idol next year.  hahaha ..........yeah right! 

This place was really cool. The Pastor almost made me cry and the congregation was very open, young and multi-cultural.  

I think I might just go back!  

Proud to be an American!!

I am so overjoyed to be an American tonight!  Watching Obama become the next president fills me with hope and pride!! 

Some People........ Rants from a Pissed off Woman!!

So I have known this guy since April and let me tell you what a Jerk!!  He is seriously someone that you meet think they might be cool and then Wammo!!  CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY!!!  ...........

We started out as "just friends" because he didn't feel a connection with me.  That was cool with me.  Over the next couple weeks we became close and started to see each other but nothing serious or exclusive. After a month of that I suggested that we make it official and his response was " I guess so, but this doesn't mean I love you are anything"  LOL   Hello should have been my RED flag.  But no,  I only think with my heart and not my head.   (i know...... wtf  Kirsty!!)   So we did the serious thing for about two weeks or so and then I got the news about losing my job and the fact that I might be moving out of state for a new one.  So he breaks up with me.. Cool........ I tell him that's cool, because for the last month he's been telling me he doesn't see a long term future with us!   Ok no problem.......   So I said let's just go back to seeing each other casually.  I get the job in Seattle and he tells me to go and not worry about him or anything.  SO that is what I do.   And wouldn't you know it, not even a week goes by and he tells me he is in love with me and can't live with out me and that if I want to quit my new job and move home. I can live with him.  He thinks I would be a great wife and mother ( I DON"T WANT KIDS!!!!!)  

So I tell him that this is too much and I have too much going on to think about this and to back off a little and give me space.  Every time I'm talking to him he is on the verge of crying and telling me how much he loves me.  Whatever, you only think that cause I'm gone now.   JESUS!!!  I finally tell him that I can't do this and that we need to just be friends.  He says that is fine and he looks forward to that,  but of course  I get emails about me moving home and quitting my job or him moving up here so we can be together.   WTF,  you didn't see a future with me!!  I"m done.  DONE DONE DONE....... 

That's all I have to say.......LOL  (Sorry for the Rant)

Life is soo AWESOME!!

Sorry it's been awhile.  Not having internet at home has really hindered my social (internet) life.  Hahhaa.......  I guess it's good to unplug sometimes.  So let's see here, let's catch up.   

Well I have almost completely unpacked my house and am excited about that.  The darn cat will not stop licking me and she walks around the house yelling at me.  It's super annoying, but I guess she is used to having 3 dogs and 5 other cats to keep her occupied.  Anyway.  

So I have started lifting weights again 5 days a week at 24hour fitness and have lost 7lbs and a dress size. WOO HOO!!  My lifting partner is awesome and she kicks my butt!! I will start posting pics once I can really see results!!

Work is busy but awesome.  I'm so blessed that I found this job!  It was soo worth this life changing move!  I"m starting to make some great friends and doing things on my days off.....

As for my love life........I have met someone that is totally fantastic and we get along sooo great!! I am amazed everyday that this person walked into my life.  It's soo fun!

I spent Halloween with my Niece, she was the devil (pic to follow). It was soo awesome to see her.  My sister is getting huge and will deliver in Dec.  She did inform me that I will not be able to be in the delivery room for the birth. I"m very sadden by this (especially since I missed the birth of Ali), but I can't say that i'm shocked at all.   Oh well such as life!!!

Anyway..................  I'm working as you can see from the time of this post.. So back to work I go!!
