Late Thanksgiving Post

-
I hope that everyone had a great holiday! I certainly did. I woke up fairly early and made a chocolate pie, deviled eggs, and a relish tray. Then, it was off to check on a cat I'm watching for my boss. After that I went to my mom's house to help with the cooking. The food was AMAZING! My only complaint is that people who didn't help AT ALL had little nit-picks about the food. I say if you didn't help you aren't allowed to complain. You should be grateful and just enjoy it. Said people also didn't help with the clean-up *glowers* But fun was had and good food was eaten. Good food will STILL be eaten today. Yum! Leftovers!
We had our first snow on Monday. Big flakes! Of course, none of it stuck...but the mountains are still white. I thought that winter was going to come early this year. It's been so cold! There has been ice on my car every morning for weeks now. I love it though. It's so festive. Speaking of festive...Christmas music is being played non-stop until the holiday!! I'm SO HAPPY!!

    HEre's to hoping that this cold weather keeps up until WE all get there! That's my big wish right now. I've never had a white Christmas but I'd settle for a white birthday if I could! *grins* BRING ON SOME SNOW!! Glad your holiday was good. I'd love to try your cooking. Chris and I still rave about your little roast beef, tangerine and balsamic vinegar pocket! SO GOOD! *shudders like PAula Dean*

Lost Girl

Lost girl protects what is precious to her Can you say the same for yourself sir Hidden pockets of misery and divine Islands of hope if only they could shine Lost girl pushes away heartfelt love Not deserved, bloodied and shoved Unexplainable expectations she's given A heart not beating, held broken, riven Lost girl bites back urges to cry A scream past parted lips, only a sigh Shaking inside, flying apart, unraveling Logic and reason, following, traveling Lost girl can't tread water any longer Deep breath, under, float, stronger Leave behind all that exists here Keep it safe, hidden from fear Lost girl wants to turn back, embrace Behind closed eyes, only her face Accept what's been said and done Move forwards, towards the rising sun

Losing Money

That's what my bosses are doing today. They make us work on Memorial Day and then question why we aren't busy. But hey, why should I care? I'm getting paid to sit here and read. It's just that sometimes I can't help feeling I'm stuck in a Saturday detention. Doesn't help that half of the employees called in 'sick' today. Maybe I'm just jealous and bitter. I did have a wonderful weekend though! We went to the lake on Saturday and couldn't have asked for better weather. Had a BBQ, soaked up some sun, went home and slept. I watched Trainspotting while I unpacked some more boxes. It was disturbing to say the least and the baby, TRAUMATIZING. Johnny Lee Miller is absolutely adorable though. On Sunday we went to the theater and saw Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End . I was a little 'iffy' about it because I had read it was over 2 1/2 hours long. The second one wasn't very good in my opinion, but I decided to give this one a ...

So this is INCREDIBLY rambly...just had to get some things out! Life is.... interesting I feel..... everything One moment I feel very adult-like. I have responsibilities, a career (even if it's one I don't like). I have bills to pay and I'm budgeting my money. I make wise choices and investments. I help people with their problems and I am a shoulder to cry on. I fix things and I'm in complete control. I know how the world works and I feel comfortable with that. In between this breath and the next I'm on my ass. Things aren't like that at all. Am I just fooling myself? Is it a coping mechanism for us because we are so programed to think that way? Do we really believe we have to be in control of everything? The world is constantly changing, like the ocean. We are constantly changing. I have a childlike desire to see and experience everything. Good or bad, it doesn't matter. I want to feel pain, extreme pain along with happiness and complete joy, e...
