Hey how about a Lil me time...

I noticed in my few blog posts I have written they are the majority about Mike, I think I write a lot about him because of the obvious reason (him being so great) but I think my main reason being is I don't get to talk about him a whole lot in person, people tend to get uncomfortable real quick when I bring him up. They get this awkward look on their face, give me the tilted head smile/nod, and then change the subject. I don't want people's sympathy anymore, I have grown past that stage, not that i ever wanted it, but it did help...it doesn't help anymore. I accept the challenge God has put in my life, it has made me an incredibly strong woman, and I am somehow grateful for it, I just simply want to talk about Mike, he was so incredibly great, hilarious, crazy ass, good lookin, a one of a kind guy which led to so many great stories....it's not that I want to live in the past, but hey my past was pretty great, it's just nice to reminisce on a great man and an even greater love.

So please if I ever bring Mike up, just listen, ask about him, I love to get questions about him & be reminded of him. some of my memories are starting to fade and so to be asked questions that trigger a memory is one of the greatest gifts you could give me.....

Oh hey guess what my intent was for this post, to talk about me, my great life and to get to know me a little better. Yet once again it led to Mike....so as I dictate away from him I lead you to me.

8. My catholic name is Sebastian.
9. My life for the last 18 or so years has been revolved around sports...volleyball, softball, and football.
10. I played college volleyball & softball, every single one of my boyfriends have played collegiate football, and the last three years I have helped put on a coed softball tournament for Mikes foundation, I have coached teenage & college girls in volleyball & was recently offered a full time high school coaching position, but declined....I have decided to take a temporary break from sports and see if life leads me in a new direction.
11. The only people I care in this life to impress are my grandma Barbara and grandpa Phil, I try daily to be better people for them. There's no two other people I look up to more.
