Once upon a time, I fell in love with comic books. Sometimes it seems like so very long ago, but I still remember those days quite fondly. There are many pros and cons with comics these days, and I’m so very happy to see them getting big screen recognition, along with the great video games. But in all honesty, I’m glad I no longer read them.
First off, there’s something to be said about an ending. I know I’m one to talk, since the Emerald Bard series seems like it can go on forever, but someday her story will end. Whether nor not its passed on, or what, I don’t know, but an ending is inevitable.

(poem) - Birthday Instructions
Preparing for a birthday
Is fun thing to do
When its your loved one’s birthday
There’s oh so very much to do.
She needs to know you love her
That is essentially the key
Because on her birthday
You are the only thing she’ll want to see
First things first
You have to do it all right
Else you’ll be caught
In some screwed up plight
The best part about it all
Is not everything has to be perfect
She’ll cherish the attempt
Delivering a softer verdict
In the end,
The best thing you can do
Is simply love her
Through and through
So do that
And you will see
That if she truly loves you
She will give you a big ol’ smilie
No matter what her circumstance
No matter what she’s going through
Her love will shine through
If she truly loves you
And even the worst of days
Will not deflate her love
Because she has placed you on a pedestal
Somewhere far above.
For if she hasn’t
It will shine through
If on her birthday
She wants someone other than you.

Why I Avoid Politics
I tend not to get too political on our blog. I do it for several reasons. There are plenty of political blogs out there, and many have some valid opinions, and sometimes I’ll even join in on those discussions.
But when it comes to our blog here, I do like to point out some things here and there that need to be changed. I’ve never liked getting into the discussions here over who is right and wrong. One of the main reasons of that is that people are so brainwashed as to what is going on with politics.

Falling in Love Again, for the First Time.
I can honestly say that I have never been happier. I'm sure you have heard it or even said it but for me it is the truth. I have never felt or been so loved in all my life and it's all because of a wonderful caring man that I call my husband.
After my late husband died I was lost. I really didn't know what I was going to do next. It was just me and my 13 year old daughter. I thought there was no way I was going to get married again and have my heart ripped out of my chest again. After a few months I started to get lonely. I missed the championship that I had with my late husband. My mom told me that I was too young to be by myself and I should start dating again.

(Poem) - Happily Forever After
Bad days aside
Most are pretty good
Some days can even
Be better than they should
Those days are blessed
Wonderful through and through
Because I simply get to spend
All my time with you
I feel like I belong
I feel like part of something
Something far bigger
Than wearing your wedding ring.
Someday the dog doesn’t scratch
The dog doesn’t grunt
She simply lays there
Performing a silent stunt
Harmony can reign
Within this amazing home
There can be a calm
Without the petulant groans
Of a crazy teenage girl
Who is our entire world
That’s not getting her way
As her life is unfurled
Yes, there are days
Where life it truly the best
In fact there are quite a few
That are far better than the rest
The hammock is crying our name
Swaying in the breeze
There’s not very much better
Than reading our Kindles with ease
It almost seems
As if our life is a fantasy
Yet it is most definitely not
This is our reality
A life full of love
A life full of laughter
I love my wife with my entire soul
For now and for happily forever after.
(( FYI, this poem is actually part 3 in my "3 Post Experience" this week. Experience the low point in part 1, where a bad day reeks havoc in Days Like This. But of course, every bad day becomes just another tomorrow, where you find out that there are no failures, just unfinished successes. All you have to do is remember There Will Always Be Days Like Yesterday. ))
