Well, the time has come for me to start my blog. I haven't wanted to start this as I knew it would be a lot of work and I thought who wants to read just about me? The best part of reading my friends blogs is seeing the updated pictures of their families. I'm giving in to my friends who think I should do a blog as they think it will be entertainment. Laugh with me though friends...not at me. HA.
The title "Becoming Heather"...what's it all about, you ask? Well, I'm a sucker for romance films and happy endings! Some of my favorite movies have been based on the Jane Austen books...Sense & Sensibility, Pride & Prejudice, etc... Well, a new movie was coming out based on the story of Jane Austen's life called "Becoming Jane" (I'll tell you now, I'm not a reader. I'm a movie goer. If there are cliff notes, I'm on it. So some of you are already thinking, shame on you for not reading these novels.). So, this called for a Girl's Night Out. If you've seen the movie, I'm sure you understand why I hated it. Bottom line, she never got married. Lost the love of her life only to run into him and his family at the end, blah blah blah... As the lights come up, I'm beyond distraught and I shouted to my friends, "
why don't they just call it 'Becoming Heather'!". They laughed and it's been the joke since. I know, it was a dramatic moment and one I call "bitter table for 1".
I'm always trying to find myself & figure myself out. I think I've changed a lot over the years through the different places I've lived, life experiences, trips, jobs, friends & family, etc...so, either way, the title fits.
