She's still here...

So I bought a box of shrimp from one of the nurses, who's husband is a shrimper and we are going to have a fried fish/shrimp day tommorow at my future brother in law's home. I srsly can't wait. Call me a fattie, but I've never been so excited. I loooove shrimp. and fish. and oysters. and calamari. yum-o

My mother's 60's birthday would have been on Saturday September 27th. It was a sad day, but regardless of that, it was very memorable, full of epiphanies on life and memories. I realized how much I'm like my mother and how much I've grown because of her. She pushed me to my limits even when I didn't want to. Pushed me to become a woman. A woman of strength and honesty. She showed me to be strong, have courage and to love the people around that really care to be there. She showed me how to love, how to give the best of yourself to the ones that deserve it. She helped me let go of the past, and learn from my mistakes. Believe it or not, she has helped me love my fiance. She showed me how to be a good woman, how to take care of others, and how to be a good wife, hopefully soon. I'd be lost if I hadn't had her instruction. She's given me so much, but mainly a second chance on life.
