I Do!

I'M ENGAGED! I said 'YES' and he's a Texan! I've been a busy lady since I moved to Texas. I was lonely and lost when I first moved to San Antonio, TX; however, I kept praying for the Lord to send me a man with a great family and a similar outlook on life as I do. God sure did answer my prayers!

Not only is he goofy, adoring, affectionate and easy on the eyes, his family is wonderful! We now live in a cozy home, have two amazing puppies (Auggie & Willow) and we support one another physically and emotionally.

I've struggled within my career trying to find my place within the corporate political world of egos; however, I'm starting to realize that climbing the corporate ladder isn't all that it's cracked up to be.

Below are some photos from over the past year!

Never Temporary, Permanent

The following poem was wrote  on 6/15/2010. I miss writing poetry and realize I should continue and start sharing my inner thoughts and poems with the world. This poem was about a man I dated briefly in college and could not seem to get over.

I plan to create music going forth with my poetry. Thank you for reading!


My love is permanent, never temporary
Once etched deep into my heart,
I am unable to remove it no matter how hard I rub
No matter how I try to move on.
You always seem to linger in my mind



There is a yearning within my soul
A wound that I am unable to stitch closed
A scab that seems to never mend
For its healing kiss is no where to be found


Thoughts of you torment me each day
I can’t have you, but I want you
It drives me mad
If only I could stop this pain
Destroy this intense desire


Why do I have to be a hopeless believer?
I can’t seem to douse this spark
I’ve tried to smolder the flame
But it continues to glow
Holding onto hope that one day it will burst into a furious fire
If only I could have you back
If only we could love without holding back
Gosh this love kills me

Why did I have to love you?
Why do I allow you to paralyze me?
Thoughts of you tug so strongly on my mind
You haunt my dreams
You’re my spirits guilty pleasure
An anchor that refuses to release me
