Margo's got Moxie ! : the diary of miss red high heels

I have had this in edit mode for several months now, and you know with all the crazy drama circling back at home and at work, here and there (some of which I unfortunately stirred up in stress) it was not going to be shared. I wanted to hide this joy, but I think it is the right time. I want to clear the air and also bring light to present day that yes LDRs are very hard, we work at it daily, and we appreciate everyone checking in, thanks for the support. I ask God daily to work on my heart not only for the man I am dating, but for my friendships as well. It is a very good feeling to surrender control and know that whatever happens, happens! Anyhow... here it is...  Our story. We worked for the same aerospace company in a town called Rancho Cordova. My best friend Adam Laakmann for a while had seen me go through the trials of heartbreak and my strong apathy towards love. I wasn’t ready for someone in my life and I didn’t make room. I had my family and my friends, and that was j...

Tevye asks Golde a question. If you have ever seen Fiddler on the Roof, or have a love of musicals, this scene is key. "Do you love me? She responds with... "I'm your wife." As you listen to her talk of what love is for them, you notice that their marriage is not one of today's age, but even still, it still rings truth to love. They had an arranged marriage (*spoiler alert*) she explains all that she does for him, and says that must be what love is.     Flash forward and I can imagine an elderly couple is in the grocery story and squabbaling over bananas. Friggin fruit people! He thinks all the brown freckles make a banana taste better and slightly green never hurt anyone and will ripe in time. She thinks less green, and less freckles, slightly more yellow, yet ripe enough to eat quickly. Who eats fruit right away? I don't. Thinking about a scenario like that, I wonder how do you respond, and why does that situation seem so tense?   I recently have spent ...

Hello readers... goodness it has been a month and a half, almost two months since my last post. I watched a movie called Strictly Ballroom awhile back. The main gal Fran was unnoticeable to others and tried so hard and did all she could to enter a contest with a man she didn't know nor cared for to save his bum. The point? He was arrogant, and never listened. Her mother shouted at him to listen to the rhythm as they practiced. The words echoed in his head when he fought with her on the steps, and suddenly it all made sense... LISTEN... that key word... and that brought them together. This respect and being able to be a team. You can't make it in a relationship, if you don't hear others out; this we seem to miss so often, when it is always about us. For me it was anyways.  ((Flashback)) I got in an accident on my birthday and apparently it was the end of the earth I had to spend it in the hospital. I was snowmobiling, and trying to turn, and hit the accelerator way too ha...
