A year ago today I moved back to Tennessee from Texas. I left my best friend, left the place I'd called home for 2 years. I'd spent most of my life afraid of 'growing' up. It took moving 14 hours away from everyone to finally realize I could be independent.
I'll never regret moving to Texas in 2009, in a lot of ways it was the best decision I made. It made Brenna and I closer, we had so many things happen but we fought through them and came out on top. I don't regret moving back either although the decision was not an easy one and I went back and forth for a while because I knew it would change things for everyone. Not only was I leaving Brenna, I'd be moving back in with my mom who'd been on her own for 2 years and was used to it. Bringing all the animals with me was another hard decision but in the end we couldn't separate the cats and our dog, Kallie, ended up with me because we felt it was the best thing.
The trip back was very interesting, I had my car packed to the limit plus 3 cats and a dog and my mom and I. We broke the trip into 2 days and I'm glad we did. My grandparents drove a van with all my furniture. Boy was it a memorable 2 days, LOL
The last year has been filled with all kinds of emotions. Not long after moving back and getting settled in I got in touch with a friend I've known for over 20 years but hadn't seen in forever.
So, not long after I got back into town I had to find a home for the stray Brenna and I had found... that didn't go so well, she ran up into a truck motor and I don't know what happened to her. I often think of her. Last December Murphy, who was little over 1, passed away for unknown reasons leaving my cat Doodle-bug alone. My dog Kallie developed cataracts... not cool. My car motor had to be replaced and I was without a car from Nov. 15 to Jan. 17. That was not fun.... Thought I was going to move in with my boyfriend, things changed. Story of my life....
wonder what the next year has in store for me.... hold on and enjoy the ride :)

Randomness
So I think I'm slacking on this whole blog thing, but here are some random updates.
-I'm having more days of feeling good health wise, still have a ways to go but the light is getting brighter at the end of the tunnel.
-I loaded 90 songs to my ipod the other night... guess you could say I don't have a life these days, lol.
-My Doodle bug (cat) had a nasty ear thing going on few weeks ago and I can officially say it has gone away.
-I'm sick of this cold weather, I want it to warm up so I can get out my spring/summer clothes. The ones that fit that is. Losing 30 pounds kinda changes how clothes fit.
-I've been watching old episodes of Psych on the ION channel, forgot how funny that show is.
-And lastly I am very upset that Colton went home last week on Idol. I am now all for Phillip Phillips. Hope he goes all the way.
Take care until next time...

Could it be?...
Today I feel like my old self. It's a good feeling considering the last month I've pretty much felt like death. I still have a ways to go and medical issues to solve but the fact that I'm starting to feel like "me" again is a wonderful start.
Before I got sick I was going over to my sisters every week and cleaning. It helped her out, gave me something to do, and I got a little extra money too. Well when I got sick I had to stop because I just didn't have the energy anymore.... Well today I went back and started cleaning again. I didn't get as tired as I thought I would considering I've done nothing in weeks.
Fingers crossed that today wasn't just a fluke and that the old Jen is resurfacing :)

5 Things Thursday
I got this idea to share 5 things each Thursday about me, or how my day or week has been. Let's hope I keep it up, lol
{1} I've had two really good days (health wise) in a row. I don't feel completely back to myself but I'm getting there! :)
{2} I have fallen in love with Sweet Alphadophilus milk, which isn't a bad things since the doctor says it's actually better for my stomach issues.
{3} My boyfriends cat had her kittens today and he said they look just like the ones from her first liter. Little black and white cows. Can't wait to see them!
{4} I used to LOVE taking pictures but I got out of the habit. I miss it.
{5} Macaroni & cheese is my number one comfort food... sooo yummmy!!!

Introduction of sorts
Well hello blog world. I am not new to blogging but I slacked horribly on my other blog and lost interest in it all. Now I'm back to try once again to share my thoughts, hopes, dreams, and fears.... I got my blog title because growing up I always heard that the unthinkable would happen when pigs fly and what not. Wellmy life has been living proof that sometimes pigs do fly lol.
I'm pretty much an open book and don't shy away from being asked questions. Lately my life has taken a huge turn and I've sort of had my head spinning to keep up with it all. In the last year I've moved back from living in Texas with my best friend to moving in with my mom again. Got my first boyfriend whom I'm completely head over heels for :) Learned a lot about myself, lost a pet :( and gotten pretty sick. Found out recently I have Iron Deficiency Anemia. Always suspected it but never got the actual diagnosis until now. My motto is let's add that to the list of the other things I've been diagnosed with in the last 28 yrs.
Hopefully I won't bore anyone too much (if anyone reads this, lol) and maybe I might actually makes someone laugh. Sit back and hold on because my life tends to be anything but normal and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Until next time... take care
