The Boys of Winter - Canon Rebel T3

 

Once

 

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice

You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along


Frozen Beaches - Canon Rebel T3

Missing you - John Waite

Every time I think of you, I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here, and you're miles away
And I'm wonderin' why you left
And there's a storm that's raging through my frozen heart tonight

I hear your name in certain circles, and it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinkin' about you, and it's almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that's breaking down this long distance line tonight

I ain't missing you at all since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you, no matter what I might say.....

Slightly Askew - Canon Rebel T3

My life has been so consumed with studying for my state licensing exam for the past several months, that this photo seems very fitting.  My life has seemed a little lopsided and slightly askew.  Today, I passed my exam, and I feel like a 50 pound weight has been lifted from my chest.  This is what I have been working towards for so long!  I have such a sense of accomplishment.  I am very proud of myself and where I am today.  I hope that my life can now start to get back on the tracks and that they can straighten back out.  I am so thankful that my husband and my family love me no matter how out of whack I can get! - Love G
