For some moments in life, there are no words....

I've been gone. First cause I was lazy. Then because I can't think happy thoughts. I want this blog to be full of my lifes shenanigans (hence the clever name). However, our family suffered a tragedy. We lost someone we love very unexpectedly. My heart hurts..for her, for her parents, for her siblings, for all her family and friends.

Mariee Mena 8/22/83 - 10/6/09

Angel, Mariee, and Richard at the Luxor buffet in Las Vegas.

I took this picture a couple of years ago on a trip to watch Mariee (middle) play in a tournament in Las Vegas (we missed her game that day...and she laughed at us) We loved watching her play softball. She kicked ass. Seriously. She was an amazing person and I am blessed to have known her.

Here's an article about Mariee.

Mariee you will live forever in our hearts. We will miss you so very much. Until we meet again.....We love you!

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

I am ashamed....

My head is hanging in shame. I can't even look in the mirror at myself. I can't even type it....let alone say it out loud. My stomach hurts just thinking about it.

I. lost. him.

I still can't believe it. My heart hurts. Look how happy we were just a few weeks ago!

Paramore/No Doubt concert shenanigans

Oh the memories......He hung out with me at work

He opens my car door for me

Such a gentleman!


He even drove me home

It was after my accident...I still had the rental and he was worried



He pours me wine

tryin' to get me liquored up!

Went on a road trip to Beverly HillsHis favorite part of town

Went shopping

He was singing "you can have whatever you liiiikeeeee"

Honestly though...I refuse to believe I would be so careless as to LOSE him!! I mean yeah I've lost each of my kids at seperate times in their lives...but this is my Eddie for goodness sakes! I'm really thinking this is a C-O-N spiracy! In fact, I've compiled a list of suspects.

Suspecto #1 - My RockI mean look at him in MY apron! Yes I made him wear it...then blogged about it...so why wouldn't he want the perfect payback right? Then we all remember the incident we don't speak of...the roll of flying paper towels when Eddie was Chillaxin' in my bamboo plant?

'Nuff said!

Suspecto #2 - The twisted Sister (on the far right)Look at her all non smiling in this picture with her "comadres". I mean I know it was midnight on a workday and we were 2 hours from home at a hospital in Newport Beach...but it was a photo op!! Ya'll 'member her butter drawer hide n seek game right?

As if it bothered him...I mean he can't get any cooler than he is! (pun intended)

Suspecto #3 - "B" The Mini meI mean c'mon! everything about this picture is suspicious! Don't let her innocent face fool ya! I know her mama!! Plus...it's come to my attention the shenanigans below were actually HER doing! Ya think you know someone.....
How'd I know? Cause across from you is my empty chair with my purse on it...I sat across from you all night...how many times I gotta tell ya kid? I'm the smartest in the familia! (seriously if you ask anyone in the family they'll even get that question wrong)


So be on notice....I am on to you! I will find him and when I do.....revenge will be mine!!!!!!!!!!!!

(que scary music)
