Moment of truth...

  • if you saw your problems in a pile with everyone elses you would probably grab yours back.
  • all that really matters is that you loved
  • growing old beats the alternative--dying young
  • your kids get only one childhood.
  • forgive
  • frame every so called disaster with these words "in 5 years will this matter?"
  • no one is in charge of your happiness except you.
  • get rid of anything that isnt beautiful, useful or brings you joy.
  • Dont compare your life to others, you have no idea what their journey is all about.
  • its ok to let your kids see you cry.
  • Make peace with your past so it doesn't screw up the present.
  • Your job won't take care of you when you are sick; but your family will, keep in touch!
  • Just keep taking that next small step.
  • Life isn't fair, but it's still good!

Cake Drama....




ok, so i decorate cakes, or at least I try to...




Wednesday (yeah as in day after tomorrow) is Caseys 30th birthday, I am having a "family" dinner party for him that evening and can not decide on a cake to make. He wants a "female anatomy" cake, but i would rather do something a little more appropraite for the family get together...so I'm left with a day to not only decide on a cake but prepare...UGH. I have done a lot of different things but really want this one to be special. I am getting a little nervous and freaked out to say the least...




My options are a Wyoming Cowboys cake...which I have done before, but could do a lot nicer one now, a hunting themed cake, which i have also done before, but could do differently, or to come up with something totally different.




I would like to do something totally different as it is his 30th birthday, and of course i want it to be super special, but the question remains...WHAT SHOULD I DO!?!?!?
