When I talk about negative things in my blog I might just say "someone", "they", etc but when I am talking about people I plan on using initials/nicknames to make it quicker/more secure for me/my family and so if someone comes across my blog and reads one post they don't know who all is in my life. I don't plan on putting their full names so I'm just going to describe their relationship to me and if I put any pictures or anything I'll use a nickname or initial.
For now I'm just giving a brief description as I work through the list, I will come back and finish them later. If I start mentioning someone that's not on the list, I'll edit and add them on (if I feel they might be mentioned more than once or twice). If you read this and you see this list and aren't sure it's you.. you may ask me. :) But I'm going to try to include some sort of insider secret so you know who you are.
"Boog" - my younger brother, my best friend. He has Cerebral Palsy and that's a big part of why I went to college for DSW.
"RR" - my best friend. An incredible person that I look up to so much. I'm inspired constantly by her heart. She's a photographer.
"JR" - RR's husband, and a police officer.
"AW" - a very close friend of mine through RR. Lives an hour away, but I go to visit her once a month.
"AW2" - AW's husband. If I mention them both I'll say "AWs".
"CW" - AWs' 2 year old, my "nephew".
"CW2" - AWs' 3 month old, my "nephew". Both then I'll use "CWs". All 4 it'll be "The Ws".
"A" - my boyfriend. He's very awesome. Most real and uncomplicated relationship ever. Insert happy sigh here. :) We've been dating almost four months and I'm very happy with our relationship.
"TB" - a very close friend of mine from high school. He's harsh on me and forces me to face my feelings, face my nervousness, and forces me to get outside of my comfort zone and go do things. :)

"Turtle" - my year old baby niece who was the beautiful creation of Bamba and TB. She's incredible. :)
