Today is 11 months of blogging for me….which means…it is only a month away til my sister’s birthday! So 270ish posts….almost 24,500 reads….so many new friends…..blogland is pretty awesome. Thanks so much to every reader, follower, and blogger friend. You make me think and laugh and remember. You challenge me. I never imagined it could be this much fun! Thank you!!
So today I will leave you with the song that has been running through my head since yesterday when I was vacuuming. (therapy time for me, you see) My intuition tells me that someone out there needs to hear it. So this is just for YOU. (and for me, too…cause we all need a little encouragement along the way….♥)
“More Than Fine”
When I wake in the morning,
I want to blow into pieces.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
When I’m up with the sunrise
I want more than just blue skies.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
I’m not giving up, giving up, not giving up now.
I’m not giving up, giving up, not backing down.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
When I’m lit with the sunrise.
I want more than just a good time.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
I’m not giving up, giving up, not giving up now.
I’m not giving up, giving up, not selling out.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
More than oceans away from the dawn.
More than oceans away from the dawn.
More than oceans away from who we are
More than oceans, more than oceans, yeah.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
stuff i tell my sister 
Congrats on your milestone! Your blog really took off! You rock chick, and I love reading your musing. Keep it up! PS – I LOVE Switchfoot!
Thanks Rebecca! It’s been a big learning curve for me with wordpress, etc. SOOOO much to learn. Thanks for your help! Switchfoot….awesome aren’t they?

Congrats… Really like that song
thanks…It a real “pick you up” kinda song 🙂
I love the song and this blogging thing is addictive… I started so that my family could see my photos.. now I don’t think they look even…
It IS addictive, you are right! (my family views….but they rarely comment…or at least that’s what they have told me….now you make me curious!!! 🙂 )
I have a few people that comment in odd ways… maybe that’s the family…lol
haha! That must be it! 🙂
I’ll be there for your anniversary party, Paula! It has been a real treat for me to read and follow you in your travels and musings. 🙂 This is a new song to me, and I like it. 🙂
Thanks for the support! Maybe we could have a pizza party?!?!? LOL! Glad you like the song….it lifts my spirits each time I hear it! ♥
A pizza party on your blog would be fun. We could see what kind of pizza and drink everyone would bring. 😉 If not on your anniversary, maybe some Saturday night.
Sounds fun to me!!! 🙂
