If "If's" and "Buts" Were Candy and Nuts....

Oh what a Christmas it would be. I have a blog? Ya don't say! I hope everyone who reads is safe and well and with you one's you love. It's true it is I; the lonely blogger, the seldom blogger, like a late night D.J. with one lonesome listener. Ha, I just equate myself in this way because it's 12:30 am on a Friday night and I can't sleep.

How have I been? Why thank you for asking. ;) Geesh! I tell you that my life seems to have gotten worse. Facing major life choices; my illness, and my mother has been diagnosed with cancer and I won't mention the financial crap that keeps floating to the top of the stress pool. Ooops, just did. Major decisions, life altering decisions hang on every thought, and damned if I can find my happy place, I think it packed up and moved to Fresno. ;)

Oh yeah, maybe there is one bright spot, well a personal hurdle...hurdled. I did write a song(lyrics and my own melody), go into the recording studio and sing it. I was so nervous. I have a whole new appreciation for professional singers now, it's not as easy as it looks. I must say I had some talented people guiding me. I don't think the song will go platinum anytime soon. lol

The title of my post, how does it tie in? Well that's my friend and his unconventional wisdom and support for which I am very grateful. I was crying on his shoulder one night and lamenting that "if" this happened, "but" that didn't happen. And he said to me, "If, if's and but's were candy and nuts, oh what a Christmas it would be. It made me laugh. Love ya P.

And to my lovely internet friends if you feel inclined to pray for me I would greatly appreciated it. Another saying on a church sign read, "When it pours, he reigns." True, true.

See ya next post,
~~Moni~~

Hi Moni,

I had almost given up that you wer going to be around anymore, but it is good to see you about, even if things aren't so rosy and sweet for you right now. Sorry about your mom. Happened to my mom too, and it's hard. Sure glad that you sang in the studio. It might have been scary but it was probably exhilarating!

Hi Moni,

Hang in there. I'm still here, always checking in on you.

God Bless.

Scott-- thanks for the well wishes. I'm still here, I think. lol I had forgotten that your mom had cancer too, it's a hell of a thing and hell to go through. You know what Scott? I'd like to hear you sing. You think you could arrange that? ;)

Singing was scary, but it was so much fun. Still I don't think I'll quit my day job. lol


Blue--such a sweet person. You guys(my blogging friends), you mean so much to me.

One of these days I might record something and put it up. I just need to find the right song!
