I don't know why but I have been very introspective lately. Just when I think I know how I feel about everything in my life... something knocks me off the horse and makes me realize that I indeed... know nothing.
I am coming to terms with just how over powering I am and how bossy I can be. I'm sure you can ask Garrison. Things were semi-rocky for a few days with us living together. I know a lot had to do with my stress level.... I'm working on decreasing that.
My life is funny in that when I think I am being the least dramatic I am really being a GIANT drama queen. This has to be my least favorite personality trait. I am truly trying to get over all of that remaining "high school" shit.
My friends are awesome people by the way. I haven't taken time to say that lately and with all of my changes lately they deserve some praise... prepare for mush...
Garrison: You get to be first because you are my roommate now and therefore you have to put up with me the most. When I come home moody from work, when I'm tired and ban company from coming over, when I get mad because you are a dirt ball ;); you put up with me. You are amazing for putting up with that but I am glad that you decided to try this cool journey with me. You're a great friend.
Tia: We have been spending more time together and I love it. You are so cool about stuff. You keep me in check so much more than I realize. You calm me out and know what to do to decrease my stress. I am glad you are here a lot and I am having an awesome summer because of you. Thanks again for all of your help during the move. I wouldn't have been moved in if it weren't for you.
Matthew: Only you know how much shit you really do for me. I know we all give you a hard time about being the "dad" but I am really not sure what I would do if your "dadly" back up wasn't there. I always knew it was there but it is comforting to exercise the "I'll do anything for you" priviledges. Thanks for being such a great 'me' and honestly.... it is good to see you so happy. I like her too ;)
Aaron: Thanks for all the night of entertainment. You were there the day that my mom left with Nicole and really helped me get through the day I didn't think would end.
Nicole: You probably won't read this but I'll say it anyway.... You have become my sister... I won't say like a sister because you really are my sister now. I know my life would be tremendously different if we weren't friends. To Boonies and beyond!! HA!!
Ryan: My friend always... I know we have been going through a lot. It will all settle one day. You know what the future holds and you know you always have a place in my life.

On days when the world seems to close in around me it's my friends that make it open back up again. Thank you all very much. Everyday I strive to be a better person and I appreciate the support I get from all of you.
Love you all~ Manda
