I am surrounded by the most wonderful people in the world.
No matter what my problem is, they are always there for me and I will never be able to thank them enough:) The love they give me is unconditional and I love them more than they will ever know. My Mom and My sister in law Marcia stayed with me into the wee hours of the night when I lost Benjamin. They cried with me and gave me the hugs that I needed. My poor Mother and Marcia are the ones that usually get the inital frantic call no matter what the problem is and no matter what time it is. These poor women have been woken up in the middle of the night more times than I can count due to a problem or dillema I am having! They always rush to my side and I dont know what I would do without you guys! My Mom and Marcia then get the chore of making calls to my other friends to tell them what is going on and that I will be ok. Then the friend calls start coming in to try to comfort me and make me smile.....the chain reaction is amazing and it shows me how true my closest family and friends are. During my awful time with Ben, I have had soooo many hugs and calls that I am overwhelmed! My Aunt Julie and Unlce Larry actually left the NASCAR race to come to my house and hug me and cry with me. My friend Nancy called crying and Marcia had to talk to her for me because I was in the middle of a melt down:) My friend Lori, aka Lola and friend Danielle were also at a NASCAR party and their call made me smile more than they will ever know and their offer to come sit with me warmed my heart.....My friend Toni got a call from me at am and she was in my driveway hugging me within minutes....My friend Deb stood in my driveway hugging me and crying with me and she helped my day so much by letting her boys stay and help me with a funeral in the backyard..their hugs helped more than a million dollars.....My Aunt Neat sent a note to my e-mail that made me cry but comfort was there at the same time. I just want to say that you need to stop, smell the roses, and spend more time with your family and friends....Cherish the time you get with these people! I know I sure do! I love you guys with all my heart and am glad I have you in my life. I will never be able to re-pay you for all you give me......all my love ladies! muah I am so sad, my best friend left me for a better place this week and I cant stop crying and thinking about Ben. I am so thankful I have written this book and Ben is one of the main people you will meet in Elizas world. I am dedicating this book in memory of my best friend Ben and I hope you all grow to love him as I did. I know he will always be with me, and he passed in my arms and I am thankful that I got to hug him one last time. My life will never ever be the same without Benjamin and I am not sure how I am going to be able to get through days with out him at my side. He will always have a huge part of my heart and someday I will be able to run and play with him again. Until then, Benjamin I love and miss you. this is a note I got from one of my best friends about Bens passing and I would like to share it with you: I can't find the words to make today any easier. Know that you are in my heart, my tears and all my thoughts. I understand this loss all too well, you held my hand through my loss not that long ago. I had a great day today with the daycare kids and I think it may of helped that it is finally Friday! My son Kendale who is 12 went to get the mail and he drove the backhoe to get it. (we have a very long driveway :) ) Anyways, as he slowly drove down the drive way with Jacob and Nathan in the cab with him, I sat and smiled. What I sight I was able to witness. Real country living:) I am so grateful of the beauty that is around us every day and I hope to have many more sights like I did today.
Thank god I am a country girl! I hope you all enjoy your weekends and good luck to Kendale saturday night at Paradise Speedway. (I am his number one fan) check his site out! I am starting to get very excited about the publishing process on "Eliza" to begin. September is when it starts! Not too long now. Production takes a few months, but I am hoping time will fly once the process starts. I cant wait to hold my first copy in my hands and see the final outcome.
I cant wait to hear ( i think!) what everyone thinks of the book. Remember, I never wrote this book to have anyone read it:) I just did it to occupy my imagination during daycare kids naps! Then.....I let my Mom read it, she submits it to publishing companies and Vula, the road starts! Now, I re-read what I have written and wonder what my family and friends will think of me when they are done. Yikes!!!! I hope you all enjoy me letting you in to my imagination and hopefully you will look forward to the next book! Take care everyone, hug your families and think happy thoughts! Until the next blog! xoxo |
