Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  The amount of food I will force my tummy to eat today will be great I'm sure, lol.  I never tire of cooking for Thanksgiving.  Something about mixing, chopping, laboring in front of the stove with friends and family just soothes my soul.  I left my house to come to my sister's last night, and realized I had forgotten the pumpkin and apple pies I had at home...epic failure!!  No worries, we are going to some other family's house this afternoon, since we are cooking for dinner, and I'm sure there will be pies!  It wouldn't be Thanksgiving with out the stuffing or pie, just sayin.  It definitely will not be Thanksgiving if I do not get some pumpkin pie today!  

I hope everyone has a great day today!  Whether you are having a big get together, or just a small get together, don't forget to count your blessings, no matter how big or small.  I am thankful for the oddest thing today.  I'm Thankful for my fiance leaving this last July.  It made me realize how desperately I needed more positive people around, how I deserved a much happier relationship.  I have gained so many wonderful friends during this time, its amazing the amount of positive feed back I have received.  I'm very thankful for not only getting to see family today but for getting to spend time with a good friend of mine this weekend.  It will be a three hour drive, but well worth it.  I have four days off and I'm definitely looking forward to using every last day off spending it with family and friends.

So much has happened since my last submission into my gallery back in 2009 and I am really excited to be getting back into my writing.  Between work and school and a bad break up, my life has been crazy.  I'm finally picking back up the pieces and will be looking forward to being myself again, just new, stronger, and more improved.  Will love find me again, of that I am not for sure, but one thing I know, is it's good to be back :)

So I haven't signed in for a while, and I have been putting my writing to the side these days.  I write down so many good notes and ideas that come into this head of mine but I just haven't taken the time to commit my thoughts to paper.  I just found out one of my prose was featured on April the 30th at the Daily Literature Deviations!  The link is here news.deviantart.com/article/78… and every time I look at it I just can't believe it, I am so honored and excited.  Sometimes when you are jotting stuff down onto paper you don't really realize how it is going to affect the readers.  You know you want people to like it, but we never really know who stops by to read what we have typed out.  This really has pushed me into a positive state tonight to keep doing what I love and what I do best.  To write what is in my heart, and hope that one day people will laugh with me, cry with me, and enjoy with me the characters I've given life to through my own experiences.
