I know I know, I havent been around... I have moved twice, my son was in hospital with pnumonia and my husband broke his leg... on top of regular life just being overwhelmingly busy...

I'm fine... I just dont have much time for internet life these days... I just check messages and pop off to work on my new house or run around and do errands... I actually am even having a gallery showing this month at Zenclay - a cafe/exibit in Morgantown WV...

AND I did take time to be creative and entry a buckcherry video contest...

My Chemical Romance singer to be a dad
News Wire

NEW YORK— My Chemical Romance singer Gerard Way & Lynz of Mindless Self Indulgence are expecting!

A rep for the singer says Way, 31, and wife Lindsey, bass player of the band Mindless Self Indulgence, are expecting their first child.
The baby is due early in the summer 2009.
The pair have been married since Sept. 4, 2007.

I took a much needed break, while I have been gone my Grandpa passed away and it has been really hard. But the silver lining to the cloud is, that my folks and I who have been astranged for 8 years are trying to rebuild our relationship.

All the things coming to pass in my life has put some things in perspective. You always here the line "Don't sweat the little stuff" Well, I was putting way to much stock into what people think of me, whether it be fair or unfair. No matter how guarded I am the majority of the time, once a crack is in my wall, it is like being punched in the gut and it takes me a while to get back on my feet and while I'm off my haunches I'm a bit touchy and easily hurt.

I have picked myself off and dusted myself off and looked into the mirror and I know that I'm a good person. No matter who thinks what of me, the only thing that matters is that I am true to myself and my family and as long as the three most important people in my life love and appreciate me, those that don't, don't matter.

So to those who hate me? It's your loss, and those who love me... thanks for standing by my side.

As soon as things settle back down... I will be back to post and share. I'll see you then.

Love Always....

It is a sad day when you cant ask someone for their oppinion that you value their point of view and get accused of secret conversations and called names.

When you think it's all over that same person tells a mutual friend that you said things about them that you didnt and hurts that friend and then that friend gets angry at you for something you didnt do.

I value honesty more than anything in the world besides my family's well being. If there is no trust in a relationship, there is no relationship.

And people wonder why i'm so closed off? Because when I do let people in, they cut me deeper than words can explain.

I'm going to go back to keeping walls up that no one can penetrate... it's lonley but safe from pain.
