I stubbled on Vox by accident, just looking for some answers.  The first person's profile I found was ♥Voxy Lady M♥ and then IrishLuckyLass.  I have found both these people to be sincere, real, and a pleasure to "blog" with.  I just want to say thank you.

Life Is Beautiful lyrics

You can’t quit until you try
You can’t live until you die
You can’t learn to tell the truth
Until you learn to lie

You can’t breathe until you choke
You gotta laugh when you’re the joke
There’s nothing like a funeral to make you feel alive

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?

I know some things that you don’t
I’ve done things that you won’t
There’s nothing like a trail of blood
to find your way back home

I was waiting for my hearse
What came next was so much worse
It took a funeral to make me feel alive

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?

The rules:

1. Each player starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves.
2. People who are tagged, write a blog post about their own 8 random things, and post these rules.
3. At the end of your post you need to tag 8 people and include their names.
4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment on their blog and tell them they’ve been tagged, and to come back and read your blog for the whole story.

Here's my 8:

1.  I have ridden horses for the majority of my life - had a very successful riding career

2.  I hate having my belly button touched - hence why it is not pierced

3.  I have lived in Australia (born), England, France and USA (residing)

4.  I make great potato soup

5.  I have freckles

6.  I would love to make a connection with new people who will then become close friends

7.  I love old black and white movies - my favorite "The Uninvited" (ghost story)

8.  Joanne Bobbitt was one of my best friends growing up, and I still dream about her a lot.

I am now going to tag: (sorry, hope you don't mind)

Wednesday...hump day....  It is our monthly girls night out tonight (GNO).  We have fun...go to different places each time.  Lots of girlie talk.  I consider myself fortunate to have friends that I can socialize with...if I gather anything from life - I am happy to gather good friends - it's a nice feeling.

...to help his brother move back to Houston.  No hubby...means girls night....maybe a girly movie and some cosmos...or wine....or sangria.....what the hell....all of the above :-)  What's a good Chick Flick or Horror movie on PPV today?  Any recommendations?

Believe it or not..my happy food is soup.  If I am feeling sad, bad or just in a funk...I make me some soup!!  It makes me happy :-)

One of my favorite things to do...is go to a nice little, out of the way wine bar on a lazy afternoon, have a glass or two of wonderful wine and nibble on some cheese...and just chat, about silly things...nothing in particular...nothing heavy - just light and breezy conversation.  If anyone is every in Houston, TX (no I am not originally from here....bred, born and raised in Australia), there is a nice little place called The Wine Bucket - kind of tucked away, very relaxing.

Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
Take naps.
Stretch before rising.
Run, romp, and play daily.
Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you have had enough.
Be loyal. Never pretend to be something you're not.
If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.
Being always grateful for each new day and for the blessing of you.

ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY!
