Dec 30th
I’ve actually been sick in bed with a fever for the last three days. I rescheduled my flight home. I won’t get home until the 2nd, now. The night before heading back to work.
We’re still at J’s mom’s house but we’re heading back to Vancouver today. We want to spend New Year’s Eve in the city.
I took this right before I got sick. This is Juneau He belongs to J’s mom and her partner. He’s a Samoyed mix. Sweetest dog you’ll ever meet.

I’ve actually been sick in bed with a fever for the last three days. I missed my flight home and had to reschedule. I won’t get home until the 2nd, now. The night before heading back to work.
We’re still at Jonathan’s mom’s house but we’re heading back to Vancouver today. We want to spend New Year’s Eve in the city.

beauty
Dec 27th
deep bay ~ vancouver island ~ british columbia
I’m visiting J’s family on Vancouver Island for the holidays. It’s stunningly beautiful and breath-taking here. I cannot begin to express the beauty. I will share more pictures as I can. I’m kind of sneaking in on his mom’s internet connection to do this right now.
Talk to you all soon!

mirage

desert reflection ~ gilbert, arizona
I was visiting my brother, Todd, in Gilbert this weekend. When I went into the backyard, this is what I saw in the swimming pool. I loved it immediately. It made me think of a desert mirage only better.

Sorry I haven’t been posting. I had finals, final projects, and my GRE this week. To say the least, it has been a very stressful week.
I’m heading back to Vancouver tonight. I’m sure I’ll have tales and pictures to come. If I don’t get in here before, happy holidays to all of you…may you be granted the spirit of the season.

restriction
Dec 18th
I never thought that being put on internet restriction would be so difficult. Not going to specific sites wasn’t so bad. Not writing in my blog was like death. I have so much in my head that I need to get out and there is no time to do it all now.
I was placed on internet restriction because I took the time to build this site when I should have been researching and writing those papers.
I did get both papers done (and even typed one of the 15 page papers in single space when I should have done double so it was really twice as long as it should have been) in a day. I took the GRE on Friday and did reasonably well and am pleased with that.
I’m leaving for Vancouver, British Columbia tomorrow. Yay! The holidays in a beautiful city with a wonderful person. It will be so enjoyable.
I’ll write more as soon as I can.
focus
Dec 13th
I swear I have ADD or something. I’m having trouble focusing on things and getting motivated to get things done. I have a final exam tomorrow evening AND 2 10-12 page papers due tomorrow and I have started on none of them. I just want this semester to be over and done with.
I love school. It’s one of the most gratifying things that I do in my life. I can imagine take some kind of class for the rest of my life, whether it’s ceramics or literature. I need that outside stimulus.
This semester, however, I’ve found most of my classes to be so dull. It could just be me, though. Maybe I’m the one that is dull.
Hmmm.
I’d rather blame it on others.
in the beginning
Dec 12th
I’ve been blogging forever it seems. I’ve decided to set up my own blog, though, to bring it all together so I’m not writing in 4 different blogs (as I have been doing for the last 6 months).
I may repost some of my older writings here simply because I’ve been told that I should share some of them with a wider audience.
Stay tuned. Much more is coming.
