As I've said before, I have some amazing friends and thank God daily for blessing me with their friendship. From Meowmix, Reese, Roomie, JZ, The Divas, Bec, MB, mah girlz here in O-Town, etc., I'm very blessed. I could write books on the fabulous qualities each one of them have. They are all unique and I adore them.

I have been so crazy busy with my dad being here in Orlando this week that I really haven't had time to do much. Well, in cleaning out the TiVo, I was watching one of my shows and the character looked at her friend and said "It's my instinct to find you when my world is falling apart. Tomorrow I'll Be Strong". That quote beyond hit home for me. It got me to thinking of my behaviors and who I turn to when everything is going utterly crazy.

Before Nicky died, I could turn to him about anything, good or bad. When he died and I about lost it, BR lent his shoulder and I've been misappropriating it for oh, about 8 years now. After hearing that quote, I got to thinking about how whenever my world is crashing, (or at least seems it to me), I turn to him. I know that with BR, I don't always have to be the strong one and he won't judge nor do I have to make any apologies for having an occasional moment of weakness. BR is logical and points it out straight and will tell me when I'm being an azz (which *ahem* I can be on occasion). He can crack a mean joke and doesn't often get emotional whereas I can get emotional about the stupidest crap sometimes. The man was even my personal trainer and wouldn't flinch a bit when I would mutter that he was an evil torture king or something. When he was a cop, he wouldn't even pull me over for speeding. When my ex threw me through a window, BR was there and ready to bounce Mark out on his butt. Through everything with A. & H., BR has stood on the sidelines, providing counsel whenever needed. When I decided to move here - BR supported my decision and is always a phone call away. Right before a hurricane, it's almost tradition to call him to chatter about what's going on considering that he has YET to fly down here and deal with one of those lovely storms. When I visit home, catching up is a breeze - its like I never left. Plus - besides Meowmix, BR is one of the best security guys in the business. If I'm in trouble, I'm glad he's got my back.

So, with that being said - I just wanted to publicly acknowledge one of my rocks - BR. I really do find him when my world is falling apart. I know with him, he will never pass judgment and always push me to achieve the best - Thanks BR ;)
