this can be taken in a few ways...

if you could see me now, you would laugh at how funky my bed hair is....

or...

if you could see me now, you would eat your words that I would never amount to anything....

what do you want to say about your "now"?

You would see I made a pretty good life for myself. In spite of the crappy start I know you would be thrilled .

You would see how close we all are and how much we love each other and are there for each other, in spite of the thousands of times we tried to kill each other.

You would know most all of this is from your example and the strong character traits you instilled in us.

You would see I still hate folding laundry and I still won't eat stewed tomatos. :)

if you could see me now you would see I have given up for the day and am now back in PJs and ready to hide from the world...

If you could see me now, REALLY see into me, you would see how happy I am despite not being completely free from this set of challenges. You would see the strength and the confidence I stored to change directions and embrace my dreams. You would see that I am floating and living with a deeper connection to what really matters in my life. You would see all of the emotions changing and flowing as I focus on a new beginning with my projects.

If you could see me now....

You would see long, wild hair and me wearing a black velour hoodie, lavender spaghetti strap shirt, purple velour pj pants, my Buddhist meditation beads on my left wrist and hematite and adventurine bracelet on my other wrist, new nose screw (ruby) and birkies.

Also IYCSMN.....

You would see a woman who created a new life for herself.

You'd see me stretched out on the couch. Short hair, flat in some places, spiky in other places, probably a cow lick or two. And no, not bed head... Normal head for me. Blue based army print pajamas pants, grey tank top, navy blue zipped up hoodie. Necklace that never comes off. Watch that rarely comes off. And socks.

Now for the serious one....

If you could see me now... Well, you'd do your usual scowl..."grow your hair out" "you look like a boy" blah blah blah stuff I have heard a million times. You'd show interest in my schooling, tell me you always knew I could do it. We would pretend we liked one another. In some ways, we might enjoy being together. In some ways, we might hate being together. The kicker for me? You'd turn to leave and I would sigh a sigh of relief. Know why? You won't see who I grew to become. You'll only see what you consider to be flaws. You'll never consider that maybe...just maybe...I evolved into the me that should have been. And maybe, just maybe, I'm happy.

You will see what you want to see. Not the reality.

If any of you could see me now you'd be rolling (your eyes)

I kept looking for THAT song by Gordon Lightfoot...You know, the one that starts with if you could see me now, love...

and I sat here singing, If you could see me now, Love....and I wondered why the hell I couldnt find it on youtube...is it really THAT old. Nawww...

And then I realized it's "If You Could Read My Mind"

...maybe I should forego the coffee and just go back to bed.

I love it! Big bang theory and froot loops would be a fun saturday for me :)

I am in pajamas, partially wrinkled and steamy from a bubble bath, watching CSI gripping a pillow in suspense and eating popcorn out of a little theatre style contrainer.

If you could see me now, you would ask me why I let stress get to me...I am home, sick, from the shop. Stress is getting to me and doubling me over. No can work today.

I look a mess, even though I am still "presentable" in my work clothes. I am going to proclaim the rest of the day a "mental health" day to relax and stop feeling guilty about leaving work because I was sick.

You would grab a paint-pen and join me while I worked in my art book, the one with the Mexican Folk Art designs.

I am not sure how proud of me you would be. Although I am sure if you were still around I would not be in the spot I am now.. over the yrs I have gotten more ink that I know you would not like..but you know me stubborn and if I want something bad enough I will get it, have always been like that my entire life.
You would see a child sleeping in a bed next to mine, I know you would love her. I was thinking tonight as I was driving J home how I should nick name Libby Karma she is a mini me. OY
I know if you could see us all now you would give Alli a big shove to get her life on track.
you would see that I am down 43 pounds, hair is longer then ever, i eat completely different, I can walk away from food without giving it a second look.I am not shoving my feelings down with food.
although I am eating healthier I am not eating nearly enough everyday.
soon my hair will start to thin out from not enough protein
I would rather be bald and healthy then have beautiful hair and be unhealthy.
IYCSMN
you would see I am getting stronger everyday, but fuck it still hurts (w)

IYCSMN you would know I am happier than I have ever been, that I look so much like you it hurts, that I am a Bubi now to your grand daughter's children...

I miss you. I really do wish you could see me now...

IYCSMN, you would see someone drained of all energy and sore as hell because life is so full and there were so many activities this weekend with friends and family! I took ibuprofin 800 and flexeril and tomorrow I will be back to moving around and heading to work...

life, is wonderful

IYCSMN I am about to use my cleanse and polish and do my night time skincare, I`ve lapsed of late and been hit and miss but getting back in a regular routine and starting to see the benefits.
