    This kid would've turned 21 today. Today started out ok, but I'm just fooling myself. It sucks. It sucks bad.

    I held you for the first time 21 years ago today, and now I can't even call you. I hope you have an idea how much you're missed. I've heard so many stories from your friends, their parents, your coworkers. All of them say the same things. You weren't just a good kid, you were an amazing human being. Everyone has a story about you going out of your way to make someone feel better. Everyone says they're a better person themselves, because of you. I really hate this. The big guy messed this one up big time. There's no reason, that could ever make sense to me, as to why you're gone.

    Today will always be hard. Always. And unfortunately, there's often neither rhyme nor reason. Relish those memories and the knowledge of just how much joy she brought into the world. It's *kitten* consolation, but it's a positive. <3

    Hugs Teej. It will never make sense to me either and I hate when people tell me that. This day will also suck from here on out, sorry not gonna sugar coat it. You will find ways to cope with it. It will get easier but the pain will always be there. Some days, right on top of everything, crippling. Other days it will feel like an annoying, nagging feeling deep in your soul but you can't quite figure out why you're feeling anxious and annoyed that day.

    Try to find a new tradition to do on this day. Volunteer in her name, donate to a family in her name. Have a birthday party and everyone say something about her. Celebrate her. I have a candle from Caylen's funeral that my aunt had lit during her luncheon at our table. I light it every year on her birthday, we sit around it as we eat and talk about her then take balloons and flowers to her grave site. This was year 19, I am going to die a little more when that tiny candle finally runs out of wax.

    Look at those dancing eyes. A uniquely beautiful girl, no question. So sorry, TJ. I’m glad you got to go down to Florida and have a celebration of sorts this weekend.

    Enjoyed the service, games and line dances yesterday ... However, (b)itchy females are always (b)itchy. It is not news around here that from day 1, I have been working on building my buttocks as I was not blessed with more fat % in that area ... Well, all of a sudden, my rump was the highlight. I was so stunned, that I was speechless to the point that I didn't have a comeback. In the company we were in, I think it's progress for me at least that I have tapered down ... Less the New Yorker with my retorts and repartee.

    I made the MASSIVE mistake of going to youtube (after reading a Buzzfeed article that mentions it) to watch the scene from Fresh Prince where Will gets stood up by his dad and he says to Uncle Phil, "how come he don't want me, man?" and oh my god.

    I definitely didn't almost cry.

    I give up.

    Never give up.

    Sometimes you have to

    While I would agree in general concept. Iview it differently.

    To me, giving up is akin to failure. It is an act of desperation or frustration, and emotionally charged. I view it the same as quitting, which is a negative act.

    But, if one knows that contuing on a certain path, actions, or consumption of something isn't healthy and will result in detrimental results of health, finances, loss of life, etc. That is not quitting or giving up. It is a conscious decision to stop, in an effort to minimize losses.

    Think of it this way:. I didn't quit smoking. I made a decision to stop smoking to improve my health, save money and prevent major health issues. Same with changing my food intake. I didn't "give up" eating unhealthy foods. I decided to make a change in the foods I was eating for better health.

    Sometims, we need to accept that we need to cut ties with people because of the problems they cause in our lives. Or, sometimes, we need to take a step back and reevaluate a situation we find ourselves in, so we may make better choices or corrective actions.


    Wow; that's positive.



    ... I just usually quit.

    Reasons I loathe going to the beach picnics after being active on MFP.... Seeing overweight and obese children with candy, sodas, snow cones etc ... They're constantly eating. Can barely walk. Aren't playing. Just bee-lining to food. Doubt their bodies needed that much energy.

    Granted, there are many healthy children too. It's just sad.
