Dreams Really Do Come True

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true

Someday I wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why oh why can't I

Well I see trees of green and red roses too
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Well I see skies of blue and
I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
and also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands saying
How do you do
They're really saying I, I love you

I hear babies cry and I watch them grow
They'll learn much more then we'll know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
world...

Someday I wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me

Oh somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Why oh why can't I...

Since 1997, Bittersweet Symphony has been my favourite song, and I never ever even thought it would change. Lately, my view on life has taken a more positive direction, trying to be all about love. Yes I complain a lot, but in general, I love life. Bittersweet Symphony is a little to melancholy and even though I will always love it....Somewhere Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole' is my favourite song now, and hopefully forever.

Proudly Wasting Money

These are the new loves of my life. They're called Gia Branch Sconces from PartyLite, and they look beautiful on my wall. Beside the world map, homemade speakers and Wal-Mart photos of x-ray flowers.

I'm so busy lately. Opa's stuff, sick kids, sick parents, work, friends, love, etc etc etc. Being so close to my family has its cons, like having to be there for every little thing, and having to help with every clean up day. My hours at work blow so much. I hate them. 1:30 to 9pm Monday to Friday. I leave the house at noon, drop off Alex, come back home, take the bus to work and Landon picks me up at 9. Before noon I'm trying to get a nap in, clean SOMETHING, shower maybe, tend to Alex's every cry, eat and make a lunch for work. If I'm lucky, I get 10 minutes to have a smoke before I'm out the door. After 9 its hustle and bustle to get the kids in bed, eat a snack, shower if I missed it earlier, and get some cuddle time in before his website or fatigue takes over. I miss being a stay at home mom. I miss not missing things from Hayden's school. I miss knowing what the fuck was going on. I wish I could afford to stay at home, in a nice house with a nice camper and a new patio set. I wish I could be the mom I want to be. And do crafts and play with the kids all the time. Society blows. But at least I have my sconces.
