My boots. I am a boot girl. Have been since I was little. I LOVE BOOTS!! I hate hate hate being cold, and going through the winter months here, but the one thing that gets me through it is knowing that I can wear ALL my different pairs of boots all fall and winter long. It must be an addiction, because I think I have at least 12 pairs right now that I can think of off the top of my head. This must be genetic because my Dad is a BOOT man. He has rows and rows of cowboy boots in his closet. I used to love to try them all on and walk around in my daddy's boots. I am on the hunt for the perfect pair of gray boots right now. When I find them, you know I'll be taking a picture of them! There's something about boots that makes me feel taller, stronger, prettier, braver, and just plain cute!!
My guitar. I have had a lifelong dream of learning how to play a guitar. It is has been just that, a dream, for so long. I decided this year that I was FINALLY going to learn how to play. I searched for a teacher and was blessed to have found the best one ever. She is amazing, and has such a gift for teaching. I have only been playing for about 2 months now and already can play a few songs, "Everybody" by Ingrid Michaelson, "Life Uncommon" by Jewel, and "We Are Going to Be Friends" by Jack Johnson. I bought this guitar because it's smaller, and my fingers seem to do better with it. I LOVE IT!! It is beautiful. There is nothing quite like the sound from a Martin. And it's MINE!!!! I love playing, and practicing. I so very badly want to be able to just play anything and everything I want to. And sing loud and feel free. I know that time will come. Right now, I can be patient and keep practicing though. One of my favorite things to do is head to the park and jam with my girlfriends in crime. I am just so full of joy every time I pick up my guitar to play. I can't believe I am finally fulfilling one of my lifelong dreams. I am so blessed to able to right now. And now, all this talking has made me want to go and play, so I am out of here!! Peace out!
