    My Valentine

    As I'm sitting here right now at work, it's Valentine's Day and I wanted something to say to Robert to show much I love him and the only song I could think of is this one.. It only says half of what I want to say..

    "My Valentine"
    By: Martina McBride

    If there were no words
    No way to speak
    I would still hear you

    If there were no tears
    No way to feel inside
    I'd still feel for you

    And even if the sun refuse to shine
    Even if romance ran out of rhyme
    You would still have my heart
    Until the end of time
    You're all I need
    My love, my valentine

    All of my life I have been waiting for
    All you give to me
    You've opened my eyes
    And showed me how to love unselfishly

    I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
    In my dreams I couldnt love you more
    I will give you my heart
    Until the end of time
    You're all I need
    My love, my valentine

    La da da
    Da da da da

    And even if the sun refuse to shine
    Even if romance ran out of rhyme
    You would still have my heart
    Until the end of time
    Cause all I need Is you, my valentine
    You're all I need
    My love, my valentine

    Happy Valentine Honey...

    Being Honest in A Marriage or Relationship

    I have been bothered by something the last few days by a "Friend" who hasn't been honest with her husband.. it bugs the hell out of me. I know every couple is different and some have secrets behind closed doors and some skeletons that they don't want anyone to find out.

    I'm pretty lucky that Robert and I both have an open relationship and don't keep any secrets from each other.. No matter how much I try to keep something from him.. I always end up telling him everything.. because we both made a promise to never keep anything from each other, and we took our vows "for better or for worse" So if there's something bad that has happened.. that's a part of the "Or For Worse"...

    So, why can't people who are married or in a committed relationship be honest with their loved ones?? no matter how bad it is.. if the other person gets mad.. I'm sure they will get over it once they understand why and what happened.. but to keep it a secret and hope they dont' ever find out, I think makes the situation even worse once the other person finds out because it's bound to come out somehow , someway.. It's NEVER worth keeping secrets from those you love..

    I remember back in middle school I had a guidance counselor who told me.. "onec you lie..it'll come back on you sooner or later" and I do believe keeping a secret is a lie..

    Granted, there is a few secrets that should be kept.. but for little things like, a birthday party that's gonna be a surprise, or gifts that you got for someone, just something like that.. little things

    But to keep secrets about more major things like, being depressed and the reason you're depressed because you don't want ur partner to be mad at the reason you're depressed or, some medical condition u dont' want ur partner to know.. things like that SHOULDN'T be kept to yourself!!!!!!

    I know i'm rambling on and on but it is really bugging me.. and I just needed to get it out..

    and NO I don't think I am perfect or that I have the greatest marriage.. EVERYONE has problems in thier marriage.. but COMMUNICATION is soo important to keep understanding what the other one is going through or feeling..

    With that said.. I am gonna close this post..

    I'm actually wearing dresses

    For most who know me.. I do NOT like wearing dresses unless I absolutely have to like for wedding, Funeral, or a family picture.. But when we went to Catherine's in Dec. I had gotten several new dresses.. and I figured well it's in my closet.. why not wear them AT LEAST once!! so far i've worn 3 of them got 1 more new one I haven't worn.. So I asked Robert to take a couple of pics of me wearing them so I could actually post on the blog so people who wouldnt' believe me wearing a dress can see me in them!!


    Anyway, here they are..

    This is the dress I wore Last week..
















    This is the dress I wore today

















    Looking at this picture above, If I had left it tied when the pic. was taken..it would've looked better this is the "relaxed" look lol.. it's actually too big on me.. I distinctly remember it fitting better when I tried it on before we bought it.. oh well.. it still comfy......

    And yes, if you have noticed.. I did have my hair cut a little bit last Saturday..
