Every Little Thing Is Gonna Be Alright

I am feeling MUCH better this morning following:

• A chat with my bosom buddy Yvonne
• A pep talk from my roommate
• A sweet, if not juvenile, romantic comedy (Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist)
• A good amount of tears
• A half a bottle of riesling 

The glass truly is half full and I can not lose sight of that. Also, I knew moving here that I would meet transitional characters. That does not mean, however, that great things can't happen. Look at my friendship with Yvonne! She was just down here on holiday, and now I consider her one of my closest friends. 

Me and Yvonne, New Year's Eve. Awww yeeeahhh.

As my mama said to me last night, "It's ok to have an open heart." Boy, if that doesn't describe me to a T I don't know what does. So, I'm just going to keep on keepin' on and see what the future holds, and be grateful for the people that this island brings into my life - whether it be for good or just for a little while. 

Oops I Did It Again

I have *got* to stop falling for people who don't live here, either romantically or as friends. You'd think I'd learn my lesson. Apparently not!

My heart is a bit sad today. Gotta put on my big girl panties and deal. Maybe some day I will be more than just a temporary piece in someone's life, but today isn't that day. S'all good. Make the best of the time you do have, right?

It might be a wine drinkin' kind of night out in Pockwood Pond.
