Gosh it's been a LONG time

Goodness I haven't blogged in so long. As I'm sitting here on a Friday night, looking through Pinterest, I realized that there are so many things I miss in my life. So this is a post of things I am missing right at this moment..

1. Texas... I can't help it. Born and raised. I am a Texas girl

2. Living in the country. I miss quiet. I miss peace. I miss long drives to Walmart or the mall in Denton. 

3. My BFF Amy. I miss seeing her every day. I miss sitting on the couch talking and laughing. I miss her laugh that only I could describe as hilarious. I miss our closeness and our friendship. I just miss HER. 

4. I miss Amy's kids. I miss the friendship of Zack and her son. The way they felt so comfortable and loved each other.

5. I miss cows, horses and all kinda of country living animals. It's awesome to look out your living room window and see 2 cows walking right in your back door. I miss goats getting lose and running to to your garage. 

6. I miss family. I miss the way they make you feel. I miss family get togethers and friends getting together. 

7. I miss running. I miss the mental game you play with yourself. The high of a long run. The soreness of your legs and I miss my running attire.

8. I miss some of my old jobs. Some places I had it so good. Friendships and fun. 

9. I miss being me. I've become someone I don't really even know. I'm working on it but I still miss Amanda. Not saying I'm fake but I do hide my pain through smiles. 

10. I miss my kids being younger to be honest. I miss their innocence, I miss their mommy and daddy I need you days. Now they are independent, becoming little people. It goes by so fast. 

A lot of things I miss. I can't go back to reclaim or redo the decisions I've made. But I can try harder to be happy. I miss being just HAPPY....
