music monday returns!

Its been a while since I posted a Music Monday (we wont mention my recent blogger block)..So I'm bringing it back!!!

This one is kind of a bummer...but it might give you some insight into the kind of person I am..

This song reminds me of the way I feel about my mom, I almost busted out in tears when I was running today. I love my mom very much, and sometimes I wish I could just take all her pain away.

I can tell 
I can tell how much you hate this
And deep down inside you know it's killing me 
I can call
Wish you well and try to change this 
But nothing I can say would change anything

Where were my senses? 
I left them all behind
Why did I turn away? 
Away  

I wish I could save you 
I wish I could say to you 
I'm not going nowhere 
I wish I could say to you 
It's gonna be alright  

Didn't mean 
Didn't mean to leave you stranded 
Went away cause I didn't want to face the truth
Reaching out 
Reach for me
Empty handed

You don't know if I care 
You're trying to find the proof  

There were times I'd wonder
Could I have eased your pain?
Why did I turn away?
Away 

I wish I could save you 
I wish I could say to you
I'm not going nowhere 
I wish I could say to you 
It's gonna be alright 

We 
Can pretend nothing's changed 
Pretend it's all the same
And there will be no pain 
Tonight 
It's gonna be alright

For those of you that dont know, my mom has leukemia. CML to be exact. Its very treatable, and shes very near remission, but the doctor says she'll have to stay on oral chemo for at least the next few years. Which sucks. I just wish there was something I could do to take it all away. But she's a fighter, and shes doing a darn good job on her own. :)

There IS something I have been thinking about doing, its called "Team in Training". It's basically a fundraising group that raises money for blood diseases and meanwhile you train for marathons, triathalons and the like. I'm trying to do some research on it...I'll let you know what I decide!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful easter and a great week!!


on a lighter note... my husand...the budding photographer???
