Confession Time


Some are sins, 
Some are not. 
Things I want to share,
Things I need to just let go of.
Silly things,
Serious things.
All are things on my mind.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I too have fallen victim to Candy Crush Saga.
~~~
For the past week I have worked harder on my tan then I have cleaning my house.
~~~
I'm addicted to Coca Cola in glass bottles. I only allow myself 1 maybe two per day.
~~~
I've fallen into the habit of eating cereal in the evenings.... so bad for me, but so damn delicious!
~~~
I have a crush on my husband. I will always love the Sailor. I don't always have like him though. Having said that, lately I've been crushing on him big time. I'm talking junior high sneaking a peek blushing kinda crush. 
~~~
I love having Adult Swim after sunset... *giggles*
~~~
I lied to my kids about our cat and even though I feel horrible about it, I feel it was necessary. With all the death they have experienced in the last four years, including the recent passing of my Aunt, I felt the need to cushion the blow of having our cat euthanized. Our cat Bonnie had been sick with a urinary infection that medicine was not fixing. Turns out it was her kidneys going bad. After discussing all of her options with the Vet it was decided that euthanasia was the most humane option. The humane society was willing to take her back if we could get her infection free. You see, she had to leave our home whether she was healthy or not. When the infection started she started peeing everywhere except the cat box. I'm told this is common behavior for felines with urinary infections. The problem did not stop and was becoming worse. We were forced to cage her, in the large dog cage we owned, in order to protect our home from being ruined with urine. Even if we could have gotten her infection free the Vet admitted that no one would adopt a cat who wouldn't use a cat box and would be required to eat a specially prescribed food & medicine for the rest of her life, which also meant she couldn't be a barn cat. Releasing her to the wild was not an option due to her medical difficulties. It would have been cruel.  In not wanting to crush my girls completely I told them that Bonnie would be going to a shelter that helps sick animals get better and adopt them out. I plan to tell them next week that she didn't get better and that she died.  I don't want to hide death from them. Death is a part of life. If anyone knows that, my girls do. That doesn't mean that I can't try to soften the blow a little. I feel that by waiting to tell them it won't be as traumatic for them as telling them "Okay girls, say goodbye to Bonnie so I can go kill her."  I feel by having her die away from home, rather than telling them the truth on how she died, it will be easier for them to process her death. 

 

Good Bye Bonnie. May you be at peace my sweet tubby.

secrets from the week.



I confess... This week has been an emotional week from Hell.

I confess...  I'm going to be eating out for all three meals today. ( I know I'm so Spoiled)

I confess... I really love my new Red hair. (see profile photo on bottom right)

I confess... Watching my girls grow up makes me not only feel proud, but also OLD!!

I confess... If I could go back and do it all again I would, but I wouldn't change a thing.



I didn't have time to make my post this morning so I made it up late last night and thus not getting a photo of the sunrise today. Instead I've got a shot of the clouds last night. I wanted to get to the beach, but with the Sailor not home and the girls bed time being 7:30 I wasn't able to swing it.  I was a little bummed because you could tell the sunset was going to pretty on Lake Michigan. Usually It's pretty all the way out at my house too. (15 miles inland) I went out on the back deck with the camera hoping to get a great shot and to my disappointment there was only a smidgen of color at the top of the tree line. Disappointed I turned to go back inside and what did I see? I couldn't make it to the beach so the clouds brought the beach to me. There isn't much in the way of sunset colors to the clouds, but, to me, they look just like the surf on a windy day. Beautiful in my opinion. What do you think?

I confess...  I was scared to go to the dentist this week. I'm ashamed to admit it, but it had been 4 years since my last visit.  **NO CAVITIES** and very little plaque.  Whoot! Whoot!

I confess...  I had to bite my tongue when the dentist told me, "You have a pretty mouth". I so wanted to say something to the effect of , "Yeah, it works wonders too!", or something worse! But I controlled myself and just said Thank You. Man was that hard!!

I confess...  Even though I love the Fall time, my bones & joints hate it. Also I've been freezing for days!!

I confess...  I hate cleaning the house, so I bought these really cute rubber gloves for dishes & cleaning ( i was jealous of my friend ML.S. because she has some with zebra stripes) in hopes that if I was more stylish that maybe I'd have more enthusiasm for cleaning. I wonder if the gloves will distract from my bed head?

I confess... I know that I probably bore everyone with my posts of the sunrise almost everyday. I don't care because they are so beautiful, and make me think of Angel Eyes shining bright.

There, that's enough of my secrets for you guys. Up next is the last few days of sunrises & little bits of beauty from around my house.

Enjoy
CoreyJo



The sunrises around this area are really beautiful this time of year.


↑ These ↓ are from Tuesday morning. I couldn't decide which one with the flag was better so I used both.



The first one ↓ is Wednesday morning right after the bus pulled away, and the second one is as I was leaving for the dentists office. I don't know why, but I like the second one better.



Yesterday I had to go back to the dentist for a cleaning. I didn't get a photo of the sunrise, but the day was so nice I decided to take a stroll around the yard to see what pieces of beauty I could find. Remember If you click on any photos, especially the next ten, you can see it at full size and the clarity is much better. Someday I'll fix the blog so I can post larger photos.

↑ I'm not sure what this is, but it was pretty cool.

↑ This little guy wasn't so little, and I almost touched him! God forbid, I'd have peed myself.


↑ Here's one of the MANY honey bees we have at our house. We haven't found the hive for fresh honey yet, but it's there somewhere!


↑ Here's the reason we have SOOO many  bee's. We really don't have grass. We have different plots of weeds. Dandelions here, the little orange flowers there, and Clover EVERYWHERE!! It's so damn pretty though.

↑ This copse of trees were only 3-4 foot saplings when we moved in 6 years ago. Now they're 15-20 feet high. I had no idea because I never venture to the outer regions of my back yard, and the giant pine tree blocks the view of these from the house.

 ↑ These are the wild grapes growing on the fence between our yard and the neighbors. Uh-Oh don't tell Mel, she's liable to harvest them and make some wine!!


↑ Remember the tiny rose bud with all the dew drops on it from the other day. Here it is fully open. The other one is just petals in the wind at this point. I think these will be the last of the roses for the season. Gosh! What will I take photos of during the winter?!?!

↓ This was what the sky looked like at our house yesterday. All of the clouds were very low to the ground and very flat on the bottom. It made me think of Super Mario Brothers. I wanted to jump up and hit the cloud only to hear the "CHING" of the coin. ↓



I know it was a long post today. I'll try in the future to post more often so I don't end up with such a mondo sized post again. I hope you enjoyed the view of my week. Thank you for stopping by. Until next time.

Huggs,
CoreyJo

I confess...  The girls going back to school this year has been harder on me than any other year.

I confess...  I can't wait for my shopping trip on Saturday with my friends.

I confess... I'm glad summer is over. I prefer the fall season.

I confess... Even though I really miss my pen pal, I'm happy for the much deserved happiness that keeps them from writing as often as they used to.  Love you and your silly gay ass.

I confess... That I'm surprised at how many people actually read this blog. And without a naked person in site too!!


Thanks everyone for being such great friends & followers. New hair color, a shopping trip, and kids fall birthday party on the schedule for this weekend. Hopefully I'll have good photos & great stories for next week.

Love & Huggs
CoreyJo


p.s.  Here's a photo of the roses Jason bought me while I was MIA.














Aren't they Beautiful  :)

Link up and confess your secrets from the week.
You know you want to.
 
 
I confess...  Part of the reason I haven't posted this week is due to my new obsession of Words with Friends on facebook.
 
I confess...  I failed to clean my house this week, and I dread this weekend because now I have to do it all at once.
 
I confess...  I finally cleaned my desk and I still don't use the home pc, I'd rather use my laptop.
 
I confess... Now that summer is almost over I'm finding myself anticipating a daily break from my kids & the coffee dates with my girl Burnie.
 
I confess... I'm also scared to be alone so much again once the girls go back to school. A quiet house isn't always a good thing.
 
I confess... I've dearly missed my friend Becca's blog, Everyday Life, since she's been vacationing at Disney!!
 
Well enough about me. What about all of you?
 
Enjoy the weekend & make it a great one.
CoreyJo

I confess : That I leave the Knox Crew blog open while I'm on the net just to listen to their awesome play list.

I confess : That while I'm happy for my friends honeymoon in Tahiti, I'm also jealous that I don't get to go.

I confess : I made a really stupid mistake Monday, by not protecting myself from the sun.

I confess : I may have let being in charge over at Becca's go to my head a little bit.

I confess : That sometimes the stress is too much.

I confess : That I will miss spending time with my midgets when school starts in a couple of weeks.

I confess : That I let other peoples lies keep me from having a great relationship with an old friend. I'm glad that I now know the truth, and that we've reconnected. She truly is an awesome person, through and through. (and she has great taste in music)  ;)


That's enough confessional from me for this week. Tune in next week for more.
Enjoy the weekend
