It has taken a while but I finally managed to put 2009 in a nut shell.

Sometimes reflecting is a bad thing. I was looking back today and couldn't help but wonder when i changed so much. Why I changed so much. It has to be me as I am the only common denominator. Is it possible to change back? I am not sure when I became the last person you spoke to about how you feel. I am not sure when I became the last one that was invited along. I am not sure when I became the last thing you thought of when you had to make decisions. I am not sure when I stopped...

As I mentioned before my cousin Tara had a beautiful baby girl, Emma Teagan. Let me tell you how I got to meet her..... My cousin Tara had been in hospital for quite a few days having tests done and baby Emma checked out. The dr's were concerned as she was getting quite bigger and had to figure out why.

I packed the huge cardboard and all the table names and peoples names. My huge box of scrapbooking stuff and off I went. So I get there and as we walk into her house - me with arms full of stuff - there is a house full of people. I got such a fright I walked straight out. I was shaking.
