Brass Butterflies

~Wild Hair~

I got a wild hair to color my hair this weekend. You know sometimes a girl just needs a little change. So I put some strawberry blonde highlights in. I'm such a risk taker. lol

~The Girls~

Both of my girls are readers. I've always been very lucky that I didn't have to cram a book in their hands and nag them to read. Victoria will read anything with animals in it and Nikki likes to read books that have series to them. So those days of reading out loud so long ago has paid off.

~Moving~

I currently live in a small trailer park on the out skirts of town. And I really like it there, it's small, it's quiet, and the neighbors are nice. Well the trailer I originally wanted has come avaible. So I'm moving into it in a couple weeks. The bathroom has a garden tub and is twice the size of the one I have now. Ooo I am so happy about that. It also has a front porch, bigger kitchen & living room. And all this for the same price I'm paying now. I feel like singing the Jefferson's theme song....."I'm moving on up too that deluxe apartment in the skyyyyyy."lol

~Kim~

Kim aka demandlilchit....I had gotten an email from Bilinda letting me know what had happen to Kim the day after Christmas. And I was at work and I just broke down, I sat at my desk and just cried. I miss her....I don't think that feeling will ever go away.  And then I wanted to write a tribute to her. I wanted Kelly to know how much her sister meant to me. I wanted to say something to let others know how I felt about her and how wonderful I thought she was and how she made the world a better place to be. But there was no way possible that I could do that. Every time I sat down to write something, the words never came out right. But I will say this, I am so very happy that j-land has Kelly now.

~The New Year~

I can't really explain what I'm about to write, so just bear with me on this one. And I hope you get what I'm saying.

I am so looking forward to this year. I'm always happy to say goodbye to a bad year in my life. But I have never felt so strong about looking forward to time coming. I just have this feeling that 08 is going to be My year. I don't why, I just have that gut feeling. And I have no idea what's going to happen this year. And I don't even want to guess as to what it maybe. I just keep looking forward....is anyone getting what I'm saying? lol 

Everyone have a great week and thank you for reading my rambles, they may not always make sense. But that's just me..

  Oh Brenda,
  
  I'm feeling soooo bad that you read my email at work about Kim!  I didn't even think of that possibility, I just knew you'd want to know.  I'm sorry you ended up finding out and getting upset at work.  I sure miss her, as I know so many people do. I love your new hair color, it's very flattering on you!  Of course you're pretty to start with, but it's fun to make a change now and then, huh?  So happy to hear you'll get to move to the new place!
  
  Take Care,
  ~Bilinda~

  Well, Brenda, I think this is going to be your year.  It's starting out with you moving on up so sky's the limit.  I didn't know Kim that well but I lost my very first JLand friend, Penny, in October.  It totally has knocked the wind out of my sails.  Hang in there....Love ya, Chris
