Oh, the Dream
The other night I had the worst dream. It always happens when I sleep on my back. I don't even remember what the dream was about but I know it was bad. Then, to top it off, I had the "hag"...TWICE!!!! I was still on my back and it felt like my eyes were open and I couldn't raise my arms. It felt like they were glued to the bed, and as I was looking up I could see my own face looking down at me. Then I heard myself cry out and I could move again. But I must have drifted off again on my back because next thing I know I can't move and there's my face looking down on me. I cried out again and woke up and turned to my side and slept on without incident for the rest of the night. Disturbing....very disturbing....

I am loving all the snow days I'm getting. All the sleep in's are good for me! I went for a walk in the snow tonight. It was very lovely. The air was so crisp and I was bundled up so much that I was actually warm!! Now my cheeks are red and my nose is runny! Very nice indeed.

Take care everyone. Talk soon. Ta ta for now.

*the next thing i knew she was all up on me screaming, YEAH!*

Breeze
Scatter my thoughts

Rein them back in

Guide me gently through the day

Like a hand softly caressing my skin

I am lost

I am lost

Find me

Belong?
Adrift
Floating mindlessly out to sea
Alone
Wondering what happens next
No answers
Feeling like I don't belong
I am left alone to ponder
So, I wait

Weekend at Last!
Heya Everyone

How's it going? I am well. Things are lovely. I'm glad the weekend is finally here. I don't think I could take one more day of getting up at 6:45. I am exhausted this week. I'm really looking forward to my sleep in tomorrow morning.

I got a new cell phone the other day!! :-) I am in love. It's a flip camera phone, and it's the cutest little phone ever! I signed up to pay an extra five bux a month and I have unlimited internet from my phone! I feel so very high tech!! It does not take much to excite me it seems!

I bought a gorgeous turtle neck at Reitman's tonight. It's so soft. Marked down to $24.99! And Chris and Lynette gave me a couple of gift certificates for Christmas, so I used one to buy the sweater. I am impressed with my week's purchases! My god, I love to shop! haha!

Chris and Lynette are going to St. John's on Sunday. I'm hoping they don't spend the night at Jodie's. I wanna tag along and go see "White Noise". I'm dying to have the crap scared out of me! That movie looks awesome.

I must take off again I suppose. See what I can find to do. Dad's gone to Grand Falls tonight on an ambulane call. I think I'll send him some safety thoughts for a safe drive back. *be safe Cal* :) Take care of yourselves Guys. Talk soon. Ta ta for now.

*i've got, a good father, and his strength is what makes me cry*

Snow Day
As you all may know, I am not the biggest fan of winter...especially snow. But yesterday I started hearing about a heavy snowfall warning for St. John's and area, and I started praying for a snow day! And here I am!! At home at 1:13 on a Friday afternoon! I love unexpected long weekends. Bless the snow!! haha!

There's some sort of telethon thingy on the radio today for the Red Cross. They're raising money for the tsunami fund. I'm thinking about calling and giving them some money. I've stopped watching the news so much. They kept showing all these little bodies littered all over the beaches there. My heart can only take so much. One night I was watching the news and they showed a man on the beach holding the dead body of his child and he was crying so loudly...sobbing. It broke my heart. Then I couldn't stop crying. I really think I'll call and try to help them in whatever little way I can.

I just read Sheldon's post about his memory land comfort! I've been having some of that lately too. Rory and I have been playing outside since there's a bit of snow and he's so cute to watch. Running around in his clunky boots and lying on the ground making snow angels! And his already red cheeks are so rosy. I could bite him!

Anyhoo, bundle up, keep warm. Take care of yourselves. Talk soon. Ta ta for now.

*and if i am a sailor then you are the warm gulf wind*

Happy 2005
2005 is here! Time is moving, things are changing, and I find it hard to wrap my mind around the fact that another year is beginning. I think I'm actually glad to see 2004 go. It was somewhat of a hard year for me. I'm ready for a new beginning.

Appropriately enough, we rang in the new year with a big old party! My house was full! People were drinking, we were all dancing. Blair was home from Winnipeg for Christmas and he came down for the party. Poor thing didn't go to bed at all that night! He left here at 2am and was on a plane home at 5 am!!!

I was feeling pretty good. Drank 14 or 15 beer...the most I've ever drank in my life!! I had so much fun. We laughed so much. Woke up the next morning with nothing more than a headache :) Took a couple of pills and went to moms for turkey supper! It was an awesome holiday!

So, my new years resolution for this year is to just be happy and look out for myself. And I'll throw in a "I'm going to go on a diet" resolution!! Who sticks to that one, honestly?! ;-)

I hope everyone has year filled with love and happiness and friends and good times. Take care of yourselves, Honies. Talk soon. Ta ta for now.

*i don't wanna be anything other than what i've been tryin to be lately*
