My Sisters

I'm learning that things I have in my life are not necessarily things that everyone has in their lives. For instance, SISTERS! I am blessed with 3 wonderful sisters whom I love very much. One isn't biological, but is a sister just the same. I heard this Reba McIntyre song and loved it. I'm blessed with built-in friends. Three people that I love in massive amounts and know are there for me no matter what!

So here's to you my sisters, my friends!


Hey girl it's me i just called to tell you "hi"
Call me when you get this
Haven't talked lately so hard to find the time
Give the boys a big kiss
Tell them that I miss them
By the way I miss you too

I was thinking just today
About how we used to play
Barbie dolls and make-up
Tea parties dress up
I remember how we'd fight
We made up and laughed all night
Wish we were kids again
My sister my friend

Oh yeah before I forget I met someone
I think I really like him
I was wondering if I'm jumping the gun
By going out on a limb
And invite him home for Christmas
To meet the family

Seem like just yesterday
You brought home old what's his name

He had been drinking
What were you thinking
After dinner he passed out
We can laugh about it now
We've learned a lot since then
My sister my friend

Do you think you could come and see me sometime soon
We could just hang out like we used to
It's late and I should go
But I can't hang up the phone
Until I tell you
What I don't tell you enough
Even though at times it seemed
We were more like enemies
I'd do it all again
My sister my friend

BUSY, BUSY, BUSY!

I feel like the story of my life has been "Biting Off More Than I Can Chew: The Crystal (Bush) Fowler Story." I have SO many things that I have committed to do, things that I want to do, things that I NEED to do and things that I have to do. Being pregnant isn't helping. I'm VERY excited about having a baby. VERY excited. But I still don't feel all that great. I still have a hard time eating and I stay pretty tired. AND.......I can't seem to focus on anything longer than about 3 seconds!

So, with all that I have to do, what am I doing? None of it. I'm complaining here about my scatterbrainedness (how's that for a word!!!)



Anyway.................Things I've committed to do: 1) making a princess planner for a lady's daughter that I made a planner for at Christmas. This actually could be crossed off the list - it is finished, however I still have not called the lady to deliver it (seriously, what's my deal?!) I do have to say, though that this is my favorite planner that I have done! 2) making 200 (yeah, 200) invitations for a friend's wedding. 3)finish editing and deliver pictures from the party.


Things I want to do!!!! This one is more fun. The only problem is : I'm pretty sure that I am crazy for always wanting to do things myself. BUT......I'm going to make the bedding for the baby's crib! I had found a set that I loved like 4 years ago, but I think that it might be too boyish so I want something a little more girly. I also want it to be a turtle theme and since I can't find any I like then I will just make it. I found this set and am just going to juice it up GIRLY style!

That's not even half of the Have-To's or the Want-To's, but it's after 9:00 and I still need to take a shower & get ready for tomorrow. That's a very pressing Have-To. I'm thinking maybe budgeting is my way to go - it works for money, why not time? I'll work on that tomorrow at work!!!!!!
