Me & Micquellyn


So, my best friend Micquellyn recently left on her mission and it was definitely a bittersweet moment. Don't get me wrong-missions are great. But still hard for the people who are at home. It's taken me a couple weeks to even want to post about it. However, she's doing SO good! And she is so happy. Which leads me to think that it'd definitely for the best. There's also been multiple blessings that have come from her doing something so "grown up" first. :)

The reasons for this post stem mainly from the fact that I had my first "I need Micquellyn and she's not here!" moment about a week ago. For those of you that don't know, Micquellyn and I became friends in high school. But we both tend to have these venting sessions-especially to each other. We call each other up and yell about something we're annoyed at, and then poof! We feel better. Sooo...............I was having one of those moments and wished she was here. I had to settle for an old voicemail I had saved from her--which wasn't quite the same but still good.

Tight White

I was going to just post something about Christmas and New Years. But I couldn't let my little white Acura Integra rest in peace without a little tribute.

This car was the first car I ever bought.
This car was the first car I drove for more than 20 minutes.
This car survived my first fender bender.
There were lots of radio rock outs in this car.
There were many many lunch trips to Jubilee and Stephs in this car.
I kissed my first high school boyfriend in this car.
This car was the victim of a doughnut massacre in high school and survived all the frosting and sprinkles. :)
I hauled three kids in this car a few times.
I packed for my first move in this car.
I did my makeup in this car.
I braved snow storms in this car.
I talked with friends in this car.
I was asked to my first dance through this car.
I sang at the top of my lungs in this car.
And I was in this car when a double trailored semi-truck ran me off the road and totaled it.

There really are no words except...

crash...

screech...

thud...
So, rest in peace tight white.
I will miss you.
