Almost Gypsy Soul

When a 6 year old wants "Aunt Jen" to have her Halloween party because it was fun, who is Aunt Jen to say NO? That's right, not allowed. So thanks to Little Boy, we had a 2nd Annual Boos & Brews Costume party. I changed the name a little, but it was essentially the looked like the same party. All those decorations that I bought last year, well they needed dusted off and re-used. I wanted to be Ursula from The Little Mermaid this year so I hopped on my faithful Amazon account to score a sweet deal, only there weren't any. The going price for Ursula costumes....about $120+. um.no. So I thought I'd settle for Ariel. Amazon didn't disappoint there, except my mermaid skirt didn't make it from China before the party so I had to do a little improvising, as in I changed the sheets on my guest bed. And I give you, The Little Mermaid 2016. While she doesn't sing to well, she sure likes those Dirty Hippies, complements of a mountain bike trip to Fruita.

16.  Let people love you.  You don’t have to earn it, work for it, deserve it, be good enough for it. That’s the whole point of love, at the end of the day. People love you for you, not who they want you to be. I feel alone sometimes which is probably understandable since my closest family member is 4.5 hours away and the only other thing in the house that breathes is a good bottle of wine my dog. Yes, I think the bottle of wine does not count...... maybe ..... probably .....does not count. Its so easy to focus on what one doesn't have especially when someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, but that doesn't mean its not all they have or that there aren't people out there who love me just the way I am and for who I am. To those who do love me, even when I might be a little hard to love. Thank you! , I'm thankful for you. For whatever reason, I have a hard time believing that I'm worth that love and I'm going to try just a little bit

It’s another all request month from our host, (apparently I have been slacking in the Red Dirt category… and I have, sorry). It’s hard to resist the pull of the classics, especially with what you hear on mainstream radio, but, I must say, these are an exception to the rule. Makes you feel pretty darn good about the artists that don’t sell out and hope that it will continue. Maybe Trump will make mainstream radio play more songs like these…. Hahahahaha….. Merica!
