She don't know she's beautiful....She don't know she's beautiful...She don't know she's beautiful though time and time I've told her so...
I was in the dentist office today for a cleaning and this Sammy Kershaw song came on. I heard it and immediately thought of you.
It's been 6 years today since you went "missing."
You know I always wanted to be a writer...I already have the title of my book:
"The Longest Day of the Year"
I just have to start writing...Will I remember it all? Will I ever forget? How long will I break out into tears when things remind me of memories?
You don't know your daughter, but you'd be so proud. She's full of personality and sass, like you, smarter than me and her mom in many ways. Full of loyalty and a love for horses and riding. She teaches others to ride now...yes, that girl that couldn't let go of the horn and screamed for her mom and grandpa, now is the expert. She is stronger than I ever was at her age, maybe some of it is from the experience... maybe some of it is from being raised by strong women who pick up the pieces and move on as if anyone truly can.

The Self Induced Insomnia
Dec. 7, 2015:
Its 1230 am and I'm sitting on the chaise.
Not really sure what to write...only knowing that my perpetual insomnia is wreaking havoc. While the civilians sleep (imagine heavy snoring) I started another load of laundry, restarted the fire (am I the only one who gets cold around here??) and set up the nightly elf visit.
Truth be told, my 2 hours of sleeplessness could have almost been over if I didn't have to google elf ideas again, as I seem to be the only one here working on the said elf shenanigans. And I have to say the majority of the ideas revolve around the bathroom. Really people? Can you not come up with anything more creative than bowel movements?? If, I said if, I had a semblance of down time I likely could come up with some creative stuff of my own but my mind seems pretty drained this week. Too many late school nights followed by bouts of insomnia and even a couple migraines, which haven't been around for close to 10 years. To top it off I ran out of my go to drink, Pepsi, a couple days ago and have been attempting to use this opportunity as a chance to wean myself off of it. I'm not a coffee drinker, so
