The Clock Is Ticking!

In one week I'll be moving to KY, and I can't wait! There of course will be so much that I will miss, but this will be the first time I do something just for me. Not for my mom, not for that dumb ass ex husband of mine, but just for me.

I will miss my mom, my dog, and my girlfriends. There is also a wonderful new man in my life, that I hope really loves me as he says he does. But I have to do this for me, and for my health. As I told one of my friends the other day, if I were to stay here and not change some things in my life, I won't be here for long. God still may call me home soon, but at least if he does, I will go home happy.

Jeff Healey 1966-2008

Yesterday the music world lost one of it's great jazz musicians, Jeff Healey. He was such a part of my youth, it's so hard to think of him as gone. Cancer robbed him of his sight at the age of one, and he taught himself how to play guitar by placing it on his lap.

Only three months older than I, and having battled cancer for so many years, I can't help but take this loss personal. As many of you know I'm in the middle of changing so many things in my life, now I'm more determined than ever to live life to the fullest!

Jeff, I fell in love with you and your music twenty years ago. When you sang "Angel Eyes" it touch my heart so deeply. Rock on in heaven, and as you sing for the angel's, somewhere here on earth, someone will be listening to your music and will be smiling! GOD BLESS YOU JEFF!
