Birthday

August 14, 2006 · 1 Comment

Was my birthday the other day- not a very popular thing in my opinion. I did not want to have it, or have a fuss made of it. Silly I spose. In fact I still wish I hadn’t had it and it’s passed. Don’t know what’s going on really.

Had dinner at my parents place with all the family. Ended up playing a game with my brother and sisters- we were all tired and giggly. I needed a laugh.

The best part about the day was that I got to spend time with my family. I had a huge belly laugh and got a beautiful a precious photo of my nephews. I feel rich when I am with you all.

Still wish I hadn’t had my birthday, but what can I do about it?

My friend

August 14, 2006 · Leave a Comment

Where have you gone, my friend?
Where is the person I knew?

Who has taken that thing away from you, that made ‘you’ you?
Is is gone for good, or just lost for a while?

Is is the next thing to work around?

Is the new bad or wrong?  No- just a little confusing and scary.

I have lots of questions, and yet this whole situation is not about me.  I just don’t know how to articulate it all yet, especially to you.  Do you even need to know?  The last thing I want you to think is that you have to help me.

You are my friend, and I choose to let you be you- however and whatever you choose to be.

Sorry for my selfishness.

Song for today

Just wondering, really, how you are, and what you’re up too.

As time goes on, I even wonder if you are real.

Do you wonder too?

Buying a house

August 7, 2006 · 1 Comment

My sister and I have been house hunting for about 6 months now, with spurts of great activity and then nothing.  We’re busy people so it makes it a bit hard.  I do feel like we’ve been learning through the whole process, though there have been times when I’ve felt rather stuck and hopeless about it all.

Seems that God is calling me to start actioning things- taking up opportunities as they are presented to me.  I do have a habit of sitting on the sidelines watching life pass me by.  It’s all a strange process really.  Is this part of the change thing?  Who knows.

I’m still waiting to connect the dots.

Well… the process has started.  Am leaping into the unknown- putting in an offer for the house we saw yesterday.  Let’s see what happens!
