How funny is Aunt Crystal?

Can I just say I LOVE my SIL Crystal. I'll try not to "gush" because she would hate that but I tell you, she is more fun to talk to then a stand up. She also has a heart of gold and cares about me as well as talk about herself! WHY she hasn't started a blog, I'll never know.

This morning we were talking on the phone and she was excited about the Pumpkin Spice Coffee Mate. She said, "I was just at Starbucks getting my Chai for 4.43 and I felt guilty...
so I finished it and got another one."

Now, that's Aunt Crystal.


Her take on all things religious is hilarious as well. And I don't think she'll mind me saying (though I am confident she'd correct me if I were wrong) that I KNOW she believes in God. She just doesn't believe in a lot of "churchy" type things. And really, who can blame her. Sad but true.

While commenting on one of my so called "religious posts" Crystal said...



"Steph, first let me say that I love you dearly and you have become my dearest friend and my closest confidant. Took long enough, huh? Second, I have "issues" with this one since my response to "religious" strangers knocking on my door (you can spot 'em a mile away) is either slamming the door in their faces or hiding in the broom closet until they give up and go away. Some would say that I AM one of those sweet fruits of the world with a rotten core. My children? ANGELS! Denial? Never heard of it."



And when I didn't respond...

"Ummmm....... I was trying to pick a fight with you. No comment. No moral to the story that I can pass off as my own? No gentle guidance slapped upside my head? What's up with that?"



Crystal is truly Sine Sera, without wax. She lives her life in the open, flaws and all , not trying to cover up and "look good"and that my friends, is how her true beauty shines through.

Love you Crys!!! Keep on the road woman!
