Hey Hey My My

Hey hey, my my

Rock and roll can never die

There's more to the picture Than meets the eye.

Hey hey, my my.

Out of the blue and into the black

You pay for this, but they give you that

And once you're gone, you can't come back

When you're out of the blue and into the black

.The king is gone but he's not forgotten

Is this the story of johnny rotten?

It's better to burn out 'cause rust never sleeps

The king is gone but he's not forgotten.

Hey hey, my my

Rock and roll can never die

There's more to the picture Than meets the eye.

A few days ago I found this song while feeling a little down. The funny thing is, it took two days for me to understand what the song meant for me to be able to set down and do a blog and write about it.  Right now many of you may be thinking about what I was sad about and that will come before the end of this post so where shall I begin.
Since I moved to S.C. I have tried to adapt to being even more isolated that I have been in a long time.  The sad thing is however, that I still do not have a life and that is the one thing I am tired of.  When I think back about things.  I have wasted much of my life because I didn't want to go out and trust people again.  Yes, I had my few friends but we didn't really go out.
My roommate Alicia, her mom and I are about to move soon.  I am a little nervous though because I don't want to continue not having a life.  I want there to be time for me to do whatever, even if that means going to Starbucks with Alicia and having coffee while talking about guys are whatever cross our mind.  Yet again another beginning.
Hopefully this will be the time that I will be able to afford the things I want to afford.  As mentioned before, I want to be able to get my nails done, my hair done, and my eyebrows waxed.  I want to be able to buy an outfit once a month or at least a pair of shoes.  I couldn't do it when I moved to SC but I didn't transfer my job like I will be doing when I move.  This makes a big difference.
It is funny how when you are sad, you have songs that make you work things out and think about why you feel the way you do.  That is what the song I posted at the beginning did for me.  It made me think about all things and now that I am thinking about it, we have so much going on that we don't stop to realize that there is more to the picture that meets the eye.  Thinking of this song, me moving from Texas even makes since.  Once I left Texas the first time, I became a different person.  Even though I claim to be a country girl there is more to me than that.  I crave and love my family but I have to find a place that I can feel comfortable enough to call my home.  A place to start my family I guess you can say.  If you look back in history, many people had the same idea as they traveled to America and started their family.  I will find that place.  For many, leaving home is not an option because there place right there.  Then you have some that find their place within the same state.  It depends on who you are and who you become.  So as the song goes...
"Hey Hey My My
Rock and Roll can never die.
There is more to the picture than meets the eye..."
Until next time....Stay Safe and Blessed Be!!

Happy New Year...Time for tough love.

     The Holidays are finally over and things are getting back to normal,so I guess it is time for me to set and write another blog entry for the season.  So much has been going on that this may even be a two part entry but we shall see.  I guess I can start with after Thanksgiving.  This is around the time that I went to pick up my furry child that I had to get someone to watch for me as I moved to South Carolina.

     After a month of saving I thought this was going to be a fun trip but in actuality, I learned something while I was gone and I am still experiencing it today and that is about tough love.  We always here of someone having to give tough love to their child or sibling, perhaps even a friend but I have realized that there is more to it.  During the trip to Texas, my roommate, his mom, and I spent a week in a hotel.  Things got so bad because we didn't have any space that if it was not for tough love, I would have lost a friend.

     When we all got back everything got back to normal...Well almost normal.  The mother started picking arguments with my roommate and it was causing a lot of tension in the house.  In fact, even though the holidays are over, the tension and the need for tough love is still there.  I have a feeling though that this is because of our living situation.  There is three of us, living in a two bedroom trailer and I don't think any of us are happy with where we are living.

    This is the New Year though and I know things are going to change.  In a month from now you will see me happier because I am going to make myself happy.  As for tough love and the living situation...well, we are going to be moving around the first of next month.  Hopefully where we move to will be much bigger.  Did I mention we have two miniature and two big furry people, living with us?  It has a tendency to make things cramped.

When I say that I am going to make myself happy, I also mean that I am going to start a me expense where I can get my hair and nails done on a monthly basis.  Every Diva and Woman deserve to look there best.  Some do it for other people.  I do it for myself because if I look good; my confidence goes up; if my confidence goes up' my self worth goes up.  When all those things happen, I will attract the people I want in my life.  Perhaps this is something everyone should think about.

    Until next time.....Be safe and Blessed Be.
