Quotes by Amy

In a recent post to Facebook/tweet I realized I have some pretty funny/well liked "one liners" so I have decided to keep track of them here!!

• "That's Poop mouth the Pirate" - referring to a man in Huey's who I am almost 100% sure was a Pirate and he had very bad poop mouth.
• "Punch em in the nose and poke em in the eye" - referring to the most effective way to fight off a great white shark.
• "I'm a damn good catch, I don't do crack, I wash myself, I pay for the expensive cable. I'm a good catch!" - said in a recent woe is me conversation, about not having a man.
• "It's not rocket science its just sex" - referring to one's drama with men.
• "How does that fat ugly bitch have a boyfriend and I don't?" - Referring to...well the obvious. But before anyone gets offended I need to post the disclamer: I was hungover after hanging out with the Aerials cheer staff all night, and had been at a cheerleading competition all day. So I was tired and grumpy....But really why did she?
• "Shut the f*ck up and drink a beer" - referring to ones constant negativity. Life isn't that bad so shut it and drink a beer! =)
• "It's like a little monster coming at my face" - referring to ones body parts coming at my face unexpectedly and without permission!!!

I plan on continuing the list as I find more "one liners" to add. Feel free to add to the list!!!

11 years ago today......

I posted this 4 years ago to the day on another blog...It needs to be shared again.

"It seems like only yesterday, getting the call, feeling the pain, and realizing we weren't immortal. That day lives on in my mind all to vivid and all to real. Eleven years have passed, where did the time go? How much we learned from a short lived life. How much he showed us and many did his death save. He was wonderful, always making jokes and giving the best hugs. He was always someone to lean on, someone to count on. Someone who is still always there. He was a man among children and he wanted us to be safe"


That day seemed like the longest day. Getting the call all to early in the morning from Albert, after patying all night at Jason and Erikas house. Driving home in Adams Suburban in silence. Watching my dad make the cross that would end up at the tree. Going with Kevin and Marqus to visit the house. Seeing Renee and Katie wearing his clothes. Giving the cross to Dave. Taking the cross to the tree. Sitting in the Cifelli's living room crying. It all seems like it was yesterday. I remember sitting on the floor with Leslie Cifelli crying my eyes out, we were all crying our eyes out. She pulled out a bible, opened it up and said "Psalm 116:15 Precious in the sight of the lord is the death of his saints" Those words have stayed with me. They have helped me through some of the saddest of times, when I miss my loved ones who have gone on, and when I just wondered why?

Today marks 11 years he's been gone and I miss him so very much. I am thankful I got to be part of such a wonderful life and I am thankful he was part of mine.

"Let all you do be done in love"

"precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints" Psalm 116:15

Rest in peace my friend....

Getting OLD....

So I hear people say all the time "29 is not old", "just wait until you are 40", "you are still so young" blah blah blah....I just want to report that I have found my first real GRAY HAIR, I have noticed my eyes and ears getting weaker AND my crater wrinkle in my forehead seems to be a little bit deeper and more noticeable. All of this just seemed to magically start and/or appear in the 3 weeks that I have been 29. I just want to say that I don't like it, or appreciate it. That is all.......
