In Memoriam

Yes, it's true. It's been a looooong time, but that doesn't mean that I haven't been thinking about you all... :) And you knew I would post today, the Day of Pink, St. Valentine's Day. Although I am not in love, I still very much am loving and therefore celebrating PINK...

So, why have I been gone for so long, you may ask... Well, I'll tell you why. My life was in turmoil for approximately 2 weeks. It seems that it apparently wasn't enough for me to be ending a romantic relationship with a certain gentleman but I also needed to have my maternal grandmother pass away unexpectedly. On top of those life-changing experiences I am also working 60 hour weeks. Blah...

I do not share all of this with you because I am a whiner nor am I a complainer. Ending the relationship was and still is a VERY wise and VERY healthy decision. My grandmother's passing was a blessing in disguise (sorry for the cliche'...) as she was 92, getting quite ill and had a full life. I will see her again in heaven, although hopefully not until I am at least 92. Not to mention, I got to see all my fabulous family again so close to the Christmas holidays! And the 60 hour work weeks have made it possible for me to buy TWO new pairs of PHAT boots. I love overtime pay ALMOST as much as I love Shoe Pavilion. And one of those fabulous pairs of boots is black suede. With pink accoutrement. They rock. Just sayin'...
