Angie and Kelly Ripa

Picture here of Kelly Ripa and my daughter Angie.
I feel very much that our daughter Angie's personality is so very much like that of Kelly Ripa who appeared on "Regis and Kelly" then "Michael and Kelly" and now they have to find a new co-host for her since Michael left.  Both of these girls have a gift for loving life and talking the talk. haha! So that being I decided I must post them both here side by side. Heck, I even feel like Angie looks very much like  Kelly in alot of ways and for sure has that same personality. I really feel like Angie could easily slip into Kelly's shoes if they would ever need a replacement Kelly. ha. These gals are very similar in so many ways.  Both  gals have a love of life and have no fear of speaking to anyone on any intellectual level. Seriously!  They each love meeting new people and as saying goes they never meet a stranger. Each hold down jobs ...find time to socialize... work... play....take care of their families... and even find time to pamper themselves. 
Yes and spend quality time with their family which is important to them so when time off work they take and vacation or do something as simple as going out to watch their boys play a game of soccer.  I can find only a couple words that describe these gals both to a T and its this, both just
                                                    LOVE LIFE!!!

Sometimes we have Sad Days!

From good moments and then here I am tonight on the subject of sad and not understanding!


Yes,  I am sad Today and yet there have been many today's of sadness...even though I can't write about what is causing this sadness in me...  I feel I must vent or surely sink. Things happen in life and yes to myself and to others as well who I may not know.   When it brings hurt to myself well yes you feel sad and yes you cry alot and it doesn't go away....You learn to walk around with it inside you everyday.....I will forever feel life can be unfair!  I believe in a Savior even though it seems the answer is always the same.... "NO and yes I don't understand why bad things happen to some and not others!   People say have faith and I  think  its not happening to you and  its a easy answer for them and its not effecting your life!  Wish could post about these things but what good would it really do.. it would hurt myself and perhaps others....and then in reading this you might say wow!...."guess I've been really blessed" and I would respond again with Why You, and Why Not Me Also?   I have had my share of hurts and problems to which I see no answers .....I look for miracles and they don't come and I get very sad and continue to cry but keep trying to understand ....then I think tomorrow..... it will all get better then ... tomorrow .....tomorrow comes and its the same. :(
