On Writing, Pt 2

Finishing Constructions/Bad Week Over

Well, I am working on updating most of my pages today...I have been in a great mood for the past few days, and have come up with a tentative idea of what I would love to write about in the near future. I will talk about that in a later post, but for now, I just know what I need to do with this imagination going crazy.

I am having a better day, and I have resolved to have a great weekend and next week will be good too, if things just stay calm inside of my heart (that's the reasons for my Gackt pics yesterday...just a little pick-me-up).

I have been working on my poetry page, and have found some awesome backgrounds for Blogger at Pimp My Profiles...so I am working on getting these sites prettied up...lol

I am finishing up the construction of the pages too...I will have that done soon, and I can't wait...it will give me more time in the future to work on other fun things to do....

I am going home to enjoy a book, some coffee and some Pocky....I am just so glad this bad week is over so that I can continue on with better days....just gotta stay upbeat, and I am...

New Job??

I have a possibility of a job.

It would seem that another cleaning company is looking for temporary night help...it's a better opportunity than the restaurant. I would work Monday through Friday from 3 p.m. until 7 p.m. and every other Saturday from 9-6.

This would conflict with my first job on Saturdays, and the fact that it is a semi-rival dry cleaners across town. The owner said he didn't mind if I went from them to him, because my first job is not a problem, and the clientele for each of them is different and the closest store he has to it is about ten to eleven miles away, and if I am late on Mondays or Tuesdays, that was alright, because the store he wants me at is across town...close to Chameron's grave site...ok, not a problem.

However, he is also looking at the person who works this shift eventually taking over as manager in the next six months because he is sending the manager at this store to another location closer to the plant store...a definate plus there. He also thinks that with my experience and knowledge, I would be perfect for this job as well.

I have to let this man know by Monday evening what I plan to do, although, I think I already know what it is that I want from this...I will take him up on this, and see what can happen, it may be the best solution to my life, and get me out of my current situation, and giving me a long-term solution to all of my problems, and fulfill my New Year's Resolution...part one...lol

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!!!!



Whether you spend the day/evening with that someone special who calls you "Sweetheart", "Mommy", "Daddy", "Grandma", "Grandpa"...even if they are 3' tall or 7' tall, young or old...may you have a loved and wonderful evening!!!

Crafts, Crafts, Crafts & Links

I am online again searching out fun sites to add...mainly for crafts. I will get down to it and add them into my Sites of Interests, but for now, I am having fun just searching the net for fun things to do.

http://www.allcrafts.net/index.htm Since I love crotcheting, scrapbooking, card making, soap making, this site is perfect for a lot of my needs....so far, I have only begun to search out ideas...so many crafts, so little time...lol

http://www.littlebit.com/rubber1.htm This is another site for stamping...which I love...especially embossing I love that heat gun, so much fun to work with and create with, and I miss my supplies...I want to create!! This is a nice site too, if you like freebies, but I haven't tried it yet...lol http://www.craftfreebies.com/index.html


There are so many stamps out there recently, and I am just dying to get my hands on some new ones...

I think I have caught the craft making bug again...lol That's alright. I want to do things that are fun like that.

This weekend, my mom is going to my sister's school to celebrate her birthday, which is Saturday...the ninth...she will be 22 years old. I wish we could all go up there, but I have to work Saturday morning.

I am also going to get back into making my own soaps and candle making...and I am going to get back into aromatherapy and herbology once again.

That's alright, because I am going to rent a movie from the library and enjoy my weekend...even spend a quiet Sunday morning at the First Sunday of Lent...though, that isn't always enjoyable, it's good for the soul and for repentance....

My Path/Helping Natalie

I do believe that Jen is right about something...however, my path does have a label, and I really need to explore my faith....my path in order to understand.

Yes, I am a believer in a single God, I call him Father...I do believe that Jesus lived, taught, suffered, died, and as resurrected as well as Ascending into Heaven.

Jen, you are perfectly fine, Sister, you aren't sticking your nose into places where it doesn't belong, you are simply trying to help me find my way...and I do know what that way is, I just need to find a way to fit in in this world.

The night I was baptised, I had to "walk to the waters of baptism", which took me backward through the Stations of the Cross...this is a way that Catholics can live His pain and Passion...on my way, I had looked up and saw one of these stations-the 7th Station where Jesus fell the second time...I prayed in that moment "Jesus, please don't let me stumble"...well, I have, and several times, but I know that he is there with me, and He has picked me up on several occassions.

I am just going to continue on and learn my journey. I know what and who I am, I just need to stop thinking so hard on it...besides, there was a reason or 5,ooo why I had to walk the paths that I have...Natalie and Jen and a host of others are the reasons...but their way has disillusioned me in the past months and I am looking back to the path I have always walked.

Right now, I feel that it is important to share this with you as well:

http://avalonscroll.blogspot.com/ Please read this...it's important that Natalie knows that she has our support, help, prayers and love.

You see, I had always thought that our brethren to the North-Canada had laws that mirrored ours, so I was appalled at the lack of protection that domestic violence victims recieve in their own country...it makes me sick, and I am going to stand up with and for Natalie...all the way. She is my heart sister, and she must be protected...

I know that we have strong laws against domestic violence in the US, but there are still women here who are afraid of their significant other to get out or to prosecute...there are millions of women all over the world who suffer at the hands of these abusers....so do children...so, I am hoping and praying that Natalie's story and law-making action inspires other women to do what they can to get out or to change laws where they are needed....and for those of us who have never suffered at another's hands to reach out, in honour of Natalie and her cause to those women who are victims....remember, it's not just one or two in one country, it's millions all over the world...we need to stand up for each other, to be the sister to our wounded sisters...

The Canadian Military stands side by side with American troops in this war overseas, helping to keep our nations safe....let's use their example by American women standing side by side with our Canadian sisters to make a difference in how they are treated...and to help them demand their rights....
