Yes, I took mother back after her weekend visit with me & found that my SIL was on her way back with my brother! YEAH!!!

Oh, he looked SO good & was greeted with family, streamers & balloons.

Now, I have one less thing to worry about in my life. My brother is safe at home with his wife & family.

Well, today my little Lulu is 7 years old. She's growing up so fast! She's having a skating party this Sunday & is so excited.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANGEL-FACE!!!

My son found out yesterday at school that he made the Jr Varsity Basketball team!!

My older daughter also found out yesterday that she is being inducted into the Jr Beta Club next Wednesday. This is an academic club. (My son was inducted into this last year.) She is on the Jr Varsity Basketball & Softball teams.

Now I'm really going to be busy! I'll have his & her practices & games. Of course, they'll be at two different times & games will be at two different places!

I'm SO very proud of the accomplishments of my children!!

Confused, betrayed,
Devastated, played...
Emotions all bunched up

To think that love is real
The emotions that you feel
His words, his touch, his kiss

You give him every part
Your love, your soul & heart...
All you have to give

Is love ever enough?
Does it have to be so rough?
Why can't it just flow?

There had to be a missing part
She was there to catch his heart
You weren't enough for him

The lies and the deceit
The paid is a repeat
Can you ever trust again?

Does he really want me?
Does he really love me?
Or am I just to fill a temporary void?

The tears begin to roll
Down my cheeks oh so slow
The salty fluid touches my tongue

No! No! So much pain!
Make it go away!
I don't want to hurt!

Does he still want me?
Will he ever really see?
Just what he has in me?

Confused, betrayed,
Devastated, played...
Emotions all bunched up.

I used to be on top
I thought I had it all
Then it came crashing down
My life began to stall

And I’m broken now
And I’m broken now

There was a smile on my face
You could see it in my eyes
The constant glow of happiness
The brightness as it shines

But I’m broken now
But I’m broken now

I’m broken from within
From my head to my toes
I’m broken inside out
My heart, my body & soul
I’m broken all apart
From the pain that will not leave
I wish it all would go away
And just let me be me

But I’m broken now
But I’m broken now

The fullness that was once within
Has shattered into many pieces
Emotions, pain, & suffering
Until the pain releases

And I’m broken now
And I’m broken now

I’m broken from within
From my head to my toes
I’m broken inside out
My heart, my body & soul
I’m broken all apart
From the pain that will not leave
I wish it all would go away
And just let me be me

But I’m broken now
But I’m broken now

I’m broken

These are some lyrics I've written. Maybe some day they can have some music put to them.
