Yes,I know this is like my 3rd post of the day, but isn't she beautiful? my newest addition. as i was planting, something occurred to me. I love getting my hands dirty and making something, but I was thinking the whole time, i hope i can remember to keep this one alive. The thing that came to me clear as day, was that I am a creator, not a maintainer. I am always eager and motivated to start a new project, but can never seem to finish or keep up with them. My dozen or so half finished projects, prove it. Maybe it's not ADD, maybe I'm just a different sort of person. I guess that would be fine if i had a partner who was a maintainer, but I don't. Hmm, guess revelations don't really change anything..
p.s. I have this vision to turn my living room into something resembling a set from Lost. Palm trees and tropicals everywhere, rock walls, fountains, even real birds...



This time last year, seems like a lifetime ago, and also, like
yesterday. I was in a completely different world. It all seems so
surreal now. Do you all mind if we just skip January and February this
year?? Come to think of it, March sucked, so let's skip it too. Maybe
I can just go into hibernation.
I think I'm depressed. Seriously.

I'm gonna go plant some trees in the house. They make me smile.
Girls night out tonight. Yes

Already gone Mr X? I wasn't done figuring out who you were. Typical.
You must be a guy..

Trying to decide whether there's anything worth getting out of my warm
bed for. Haven't come up with anything yet.

Saw the Watoto African Childrens Choir perform today. They brought
back 2 very distinct memories from my first trip to Africa. One was
the night we were at the wild game reserve and were watching a group
perform some tribal dances where they do alot of kicking. Well Wade
and I were sitting up front where there happened to be alot of loose
sand that proceeded to get kicked in our face repeatedly. It was..a
moment. The other was in some random field where some locals busted
out in dance ( very common there ) and I jumped in and had an amazing
crazy dance experience. You know the kind of dance you do when no one
is watching? I haven't done a crazy dance in almost a year. That's
when I'll know my joy is back. I miss Africa. Wish i was there. I miss
my friends.
I also kinda wish I was somewhere tropical, sipping a piña colada with
a pink umbrella in it.
I'm unemployed now and available to be taken to either of these
locations. (insert large cheesey grin)
Just sayin..
Oh, and ANONYMOUS, please reply to prior post and leave me some clue
as to your identity.
Thank you :-)

Yet another chapter of my life is now closed. I can't believe how
quickly seasons have come and gone this year. I'm feeling very small
and insignificant.
I'm kind of sad to let this year go this way, but hopeful that the
next one will bring back the peace and joy.
Catch you all on the flip side.
Love, shileen

So a coupla years ago I saw a necklace in a movie that I just had to
have. It was a simple gold necklace with three stars a few inches
apart. I searched for over a year for one like it but eventually just
gave up. Well, Josh had one custom made for me for Christmas. I know
it couldn't have been cheap, being solid gold and all, and it was so
precisely measured to where the middle star lays right between my
collar bones, just like I like it. It's perfect. (He is so good to
me.) I should take a pic of it tomorrow, cause it's kinda dark now
under the covers, shhh.. everyone else is sleeping :-)
Wore my red heels today and tonight. I love that they make me even
taller. I love being tall. And I love that it doesn't bother Josh one
bit.
Today will be my last day at the bank. What lies ahead for me in 2010?
It's a big surprise..!
