American Idol..... How addicting......


I loooveeeeee American Idol...... an average person's chance to a "new" life, hey I'm all for it. I like music and I like this show. I know that most all of these contestant can sing, however I do like the contestants that are "original." I like the raspy sounds of their voices. My favorite so far is Danny. I love the way he sings and I love his story. There are some others but he is the main one that comes to mind. So are there any other idol lovers out there? Give me your thoughts............

In the now.............


So now 7 years later, I have become a wife and mom and love every minute of it. I am currently staying with my mom and dad in Barnesville, GA while working for a medical billing company. We had tried to relocate here but you know how the job market is........ We decided to move back to Texas. Kevin left at the end of January to go back to his previous Job. He works in the "oil fields" as a tank truck driver. He is a hard worker and this is good but sometimes bad because we don't get a chance to spend a lot of time together. But I guess we just make the best of the moments that we have together. Anyways we will be back together in April. I am just working, taking care of Collin, and spending time with my parents and family until we move back to Texas.

It all begin almost 7 years ago..................

Well 7 years ago it was 2002 and I have to say that year was very hard to get through. My family lost 6 of our members within just a few months. I thought that there must be a dark cloud over my head for a while until I met the love of my life. (Of course I did not know that he was the love of my life----I really did not like him at first.......but we will get to that.) Anyways, I got a phone call, in May of 2002, from my Grandmother Green in Fort Worth Texas and she explained that my grandfather had been diagnoised with Lung Cancer....I was devastated.....he was such an important part in my life and his prognosis was not good...I braced myself for the worst and was not surprised when she called back a few weeks later to let us know that he had passed away...I was heartbroken! My family and I lived in Georgia at the time and we took the 19 hour trip to Texas to go to his memorial. It was really nice and hard to get through but I made it and was able to spend some time with my Grandmother. Through our visits my grandmother asked me to move to Texas. Well I was in a turning point in my life and thought......Why not? So I moved out of my apartment in Macon, Ga to my Grandmother's home in Saginaw, Texas. WOW what a change! But it was a good change because my Grandmother Green introduced me to my Husband and I would not give that up for anything! Like I said earlier, I really did not like him at first. He was just an irritation at first.... You see I was working at the hospital on the Nephrology floor from 7pm to 7am so when Kevin would come by to fill my grandmother's oxygen tank, I was just going to bed good and he was there at like 8am in the morn. But that only lasted for a little while until one day in September, labor day weekend to be exact, I felt like being nice and talked to him and the rest is history..............................................
