Footprints in the Sand, by Leona Lewis

You walked with me, footprints in the sand
And heped me understandwhere I'm going
You walked with me when I was all alone
With so much I know along the way
Then I heard you say
I promise you, I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
I see my life flash across the sky
So many times have I been so afraid
And just when I have thoughtI've lost my way
You give me strength to carry on
That's when I heard you say
I promise you, I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
And I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
When I'm weary, well, I know you'll be there
And I can feel you when you say
I promise you, I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
I promise you, I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
This song is dedicated to my mom, who has always been there.

Ever Changing

I recently came into contact with two people from my past, not by choice, I can tell you that!!! It's amazing to think about the stuff I use to do, the people I chose to be around. Those people are still in the same place they were two years ago. I find it kind of amusing.

Retail During the Holidays

Nearly killed me. Our store was under staffed and over worked!!! This was my first year working in retail during the holidays, there was no way of preparing for this. I have always hated the crowds at the mall when shopping during the holidays Working in the mall when the crowds are shopping for the holidays in much, much worse!!! First there is the parking, all I wanna do is park and go to work, but no, I have to drive around and around and then end up parking in the garage. Which wouldn't be a problem if you didn't have to walk around the entire outside of the mall to get to your car at night. Second there are the constantly changing sales, Lane Bryant had a new sale every 3 days!!! Third there are the very messy, mean customers. I am not saying all the customers were this way, its just that the bad sometimes out weight the good.

This is My Now-Jordan Sparks

There was a time I packed my dreams away

Living in a shell, hiding from myself


There was a time when I was so afraid

I thought I'd reached the end

Baby that was then

But I am made of more than my yesterdays


[Chorus]

This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment

Cuz I look around

I can't believe the love I see

My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts

That was then,

this is my now.


Had to decide was I gonna play it safe

Or look somewhere deep inside

and try to turn the tide

Find the strength to take that step of faith


[Chorus]


[Bridge]

And I have the courage like never before, yeah

settled for less but ready for more

Ready for more


[Chorus x2]


This is my now

Wheel of the World

By Carrie Underwood
Love goes out, out like a light
Out like a flame, and you can't find it anymore
Just when you think it's lost in the rain
It comes back knocking at your door
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It's the wheel of the world turning around
And around
God put us here on this carnival ride
We close our eyes
Never knowing where it will take us next
Babies are born and at the same time, someone's taking their last breath
It's the wheel of the world
It's the wheel of the world turning around
In the blink of an eye
It can change your life
And it never even slows down
It's the wheel of the world
I don't know what it is
I'm flying high
Then I'm wondering whyI'm sinking on this ship, going down
Life keeps on moving anyway
It's the wheel of the world
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It's the wheel of the world
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It's the wheel of the world turning around
And around
And around
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It can open your heart
It can break you apart
And it never even slows down
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It's the wheel of the world turning around
It's the wheel of the world turning around
And around

Everyday

Emotions run high this time of year. The 2 year mark is coming up. Last year I stayed home and drowned in my grief. This year it will be just as hard as it has always been. This year I decided to work. I don't want this day to take me over, this day is not any harder than the others. I miss her EVERYday, I feel the void in my life EVERYday. Hopefully by going to work it will get my mind onto other things.
