Round and Round we go

Have you ever been to a snazzy hotel ? One with the big revolving door? Or maybe even a fancy business in a big city? I mean, they have the regular doors too. Just the normal, open and close, in and out. But those aren't nearly as exciting. Now the revolving doors are  pretty fun, right? Only until you have gone  around so many times that it has made you sick.

Insert my life:
I will LITERALLY compare it to a revolving door.
Lets go back about 5 years.
This door was big, looked like lots of fun, and everyone was jumping in for the ride. So I jumped too.
It was scary at first, but a blast to say the least. It was non stop round and round fun.
It didn't take long for it to get out of control and I had to get out to catch my breath. Which happened, then we were right back in again. There is no telling why we continued in that revolving door, but we couldn't resist. The temptations were too great. Temptations were and are still clearly not on my side.

Now this revolving door, I am was still in and out. It was the same ole same ole. I'd live life a little bit, I would try something else, then I was right back in. It was a constant thing. It never seems to stop. It isn't nearly as fun as it used to be. The fun wore off a long time ago, but I am still hanging on for dear life. Not really. I'm just spinning in circles  waiting to get off. I don't think I want to get back in once I get out this last time. I'm sure I have said that one million times previously but it is really starting to take it's toll. I mean how many times can you go in the same circle? How many times can you get on the same ride? We all know the ending.

We just don't want to believe it.
So we take one more spin.

Maybe this could be it?
But I'm getting dizzy.
I'm way past sick to my stomach,
And I'm ready to jump.


I think know I'll use the other door next time.

  2. Hi Lindsey,
    In the midst of blog surfing I came across your blog and was wondering if you could help me with a project. For my husband and my 5th anniversary, I'm trying to get pictures from as many different states and countries as I can with a person from that location holding a sign that says
    Janae loves Jeff in ____________

    I don't have any from Alabama yet and I was wondering if you would do a picture for me?

    my blog: jscrapalex.blogspot.com
    flickr group for this project: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1617848@N25/members/
