sitting down and crying

July 24, 2009 mean people, moving sucks, this is me and heart

Today I just want to sit down and cry.

I was supposed to leave for Florida on Sunday..

Due to a serious scheduling conflict I am not leaving until Wednesday.. LATE Wednesday

and… We are packing the uhaul and heading back to Washington on Thursday morning..

Dealing with the people at www.orbitz.com was HORRIBLE.

I will never use them as an online ticket agent EVER again. DO YOU HEAR ME, ORBITZ? NEVER AGAIN.

They made me cry.. and really? That’s a hard thing to do.

I won’t be able to meet up with  the sweet girls that I had planned on meeting .

I won’t be able to stop in at the school I taught at and catch up with those girls.

I won’t be able to stock up on the yummy cuban food ( nom nom)

Overwhelmed and it sucks.

Hope

Yesterday I was in a bit of a emotional blah.. and a sweet SWEET friend sent me a message – simple, yet spoke volumes.

Trust. Believe. Hope.

Today, I am trying to do that..

Thank you SO much , Shash.. xoxoxo

Guest Post: Letter for Chrissi

June 19, 2009 bloggity goodness, internet

Hi! I’m Shash from Diary of a Crazed Mommy. Chrissi asked me if I would guest post while she is off mackin’ spending time with her Hubby. Had I not LOST her login information, this would have been up much sooner. But, Hey! I finally DID find it so here is my small contribution to the awesomeness that is Tres Hearts.

The other day Avitable celebrated his Blogiversary and asked “What do you like most about blogging?” And my reply was:

What I love about blogging is the ability to find like-minded (and sometimes not so) people in the blogosphere. I find I have many an Ah-HA! moment reading blogs. It has been a Godsend to me, on so many levels.

I also enjoy the meeting of blog authors too. I have found some of the most amazing people to ever enter my life here on the Internet.

Chrissi is one of those people for me. I can’t wait for the day I get to meet her in person. Her writing inspires me, and her pain over the loss of her child is palpable and heartbreaking. Her strength to get up each day, put both feet on the floor and move forward fills me with such awe. I honestly don’t know if I could do it. I’d like to think I could, but I’m not so sure. All I know is it fills me with happiness when a post from her blog shows up in my feed reader. Even when her posts are sad, or reflective, or even angry, her writing is beautiful.

I’m just honored she even lets us in to read it at all.

So thank you, Chrissi, for sharing your family and your life with us. I can’t wait to meet you in person someday.

Enjoy your vacation!

Love,

Shash
