My weekend? Words almost fail me.

I had an amazing weekend. My whole 4 days off were amazing. Lunch with my Twi-friend on Thursday, relaxing in jammies on Friday. Saturday I flew to Seattle to meet up with an old friend. He decided to pamper me for the whole time I was there. He picked me up at the airport and we went to a little hole in the wall restaurant for lunch called Txori. YUM!!! It was a little Spanish place. Not Mexican. Phenomenal food.

From there I did something I've never done. I got a facial!!! Great little spa in Belltown. If you are in or around Seattle go check out Spa Noir. Found the most amazing skin products ever!!! Will most definitely be purchasing them.

I was surprised at where I was staying. He reserved a king room at The Edgewater for me. Talk about a nice place!!! Another highly recommended place to go.

Dinner was at a place I had never heard of. He took me to Palisade. He had told them it was my birthday so when we got there we had rose petals scattered on the table. Dinner was fabulous and the view, even though it was cloudy, was wonderful. Don't get me started on the pomegranate cosmo. Yummy!!!

Once dinner was over it was time to head to Key Arena for the very reason I went to Seattle. Michael Buble. I cannot even begin to say how fabulously fabulous the concert was. His opening act was "Naturally 7". They have no instruments other than their voices. Check them out...



I was in awe while watching them. Oh...I was in the 3rd row watching them. ;) Yes...I would be jealous too. LOL

After a brief intermission, this man came on stage...



I can safely say that any time he is in concert within driving distance I will be going. Holy crow that man can put on a show. He was "insert a lot of superlatives here". While he was singing the above song he was on the side of the stage where we were sitting. He was singing and looked right at me. Well...I thought he was but just to be sure I smiled really big and guess what? He smiled right back!!! Yes...I became a puddle at that moment. Michael Buble' smiled at me! *sigh* I love Michael Buble. Seriously though...the concert was fabulous and definitely worth seeing again.

Yesterday was spent walking around Pike Place Market and the waterfront. It was really too cold to enjoy much. I did get my photo taken with the Easter clam outside of Ivar's though. ;)

A great birthday and I truly hope that all of my birthdays from here on out are just as much fun.

Well I got a couple more hours of sleep. I have the best kids. They let me sleep and didn't wake me up until my cell started ringing. We went out and about today. K wanted to try Bubble Tea so I obliged her. Mistake. It is not good by any stretch of the imagination. If you don't know what Bubble Tea is....g00gle it. Once you find out...don't try it. *shudder* An expensive taste test. There is a storm heading our way. Would you believe it's supposed to snow tonight??? Snow on Easter. How odd would that be? Speaking of Easter...my girls are watching TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network) and watching a childs version of The Passion. Even watching the crucifixtion of Christ as a cartoon it still brings tears to my eyes. I am so unworthy of what He went through for me. Well not just me but all of mankind. I saw The Passion last year and that is when I realized I needed to turn my life around. I was making a serious mess of things so I gave it all back to God. My life has had it...

love

It's a struggle knowing he didn't love me and never did.  To find out the things he does now for his wife?  The woman who is bigger than I ever was, the woman who has been married multiple times, the woman who is tatted up and he hated tats, the woman who shows jealousy, the woman he won't keep secrets from but kept them from me, the woman who is everything he said he hated in me.  Knowing all of this has made me hate him.  I know it does nothing to him.  It will only eat away at me but that has been happening to me for almost 20 years.  I can only now admit that I hate this man with every fiber of my being.    When I met him, I was in a good place.  I was happy with myself, I had friends, I loved sex and I believed in love.  In the almost 2 years I was with him, he destroyed every last bit of me.  I know it was only 2 years but in 2 years, he obliterated every bit of who I was.  Not a day went by where he didn't mentally or em...

What have I done?

I've been thinking about the things I've done in the last 20 years but, thanks to my memory, I need to make a list so I can actually see that my life wasn't completely horrible. Las Vegas 6 times Dallas for a girl's weekend Forks 4 times for girls' weekends Cruise to Alaska Cruise to Bermuda x 2 Cruise to Belize, Honduras, Mexico Road trip to South Dakota x 2 Southern California for a long weekend Nashville to judge a beauty pageant. Nascar races x 2 one being a Championship. Orlando Florida - Disneyworld and Universal Studios California - many times Leavenworth - many times Girls' weekends - many times I have more trips coming up with a cruise to Alaska and a cruise around Ireland. A weekend trip to Montana.  A girl's week to Vegas.  I'm sure there will be more to be planned. I became a Nana and will be a Nana x 2 this year.   I've been able to purchase 2 homes. Even though I have battled depression, I have had friends stand steadfast by my side and...
