To Whom This May Concern,

I need to forgive. Myself and you too. I shall do so here, as I am not sure saying so to your face would do any good.
I forgive you for not being the person I thought you were, for wanting something different out of life than I.
For allowing the want for more to overcome you, and for not being strong enough to fight
You could never have been all things to me.
I forgive you, as you are not my souls mate, so you never had a chance.
I forgive myself for not trusting myself, when I knew it all along
For allowing the want for more to over come me, and for not understanding that, then
I did love you with all that I knew of love then.
I also forgive myself for holding on when I should have let go
Now, that I see life, love, and who I am
I can let you go, without hurt, blame, or shame.
I will hope that no harm will come to you, and remember the dreams we shared.
I will honor the lessons you brought to my life.
You gave me many great joys, and brought me to this place,
I hope that you will be the best you, that you can be.
And we will both be happy.

Good-bye old friend,

Sara

Nakedness was in the title?


I’ve spotted this on a few blogs — and thought I’d jump on the bandwagon.

Never in my life have I been: outside of Canada :(


The one person who can drive me nuts is: hmmmm....there be several in real life, but I shall let them remain nameless. Miley Cyrus drives me a bit batty. Stupid people also drive me bonkers!!!!!!!!!!!!


High school: It was one big, long hallway. Enuf said


When I’m nervous: my ears get red


The last song I listened to was: by Iron and Wine...nakedness was in the title? I cannot remember the complete title, but I know it was about nakedness


If I were to get married right now my best man/maid of honour: Hmmm...I think I would have to say I would be going it alone if I were ever to enter matrimony again. I'd want it to be as simple as possible


My hair is:brown now. Thinking of going red? hmmm...


When I was 5: I still didnt' know how to tie my own shoes. But my sister showed me how.


I should be: working out more. But i have lost my momentum. I should be looking harder for it.


When I look down I see: my shoes. I usually take them off and go barefoot, so they are kicked off and in a pile beside me in case i need to slip 'em on quickly


The happiest recent event was: a letter I got from my love!


If I were a character on ‘Friends’ I’d be: I have been told Phoebe. Cuz I'm strange and random


By this time next year: I will be in a different, more peaceful place


My current gripe is: I'm hungry and on a strict budget. It's KD for us!


If I won an award, the first person I would tell would be: my love


Take my advice: It is what it is


The thing I want to buy: this list is long. First though, I would buy food.


If you spent the night at my house: you may be molested by my dog


The world could do without: stupidity and ignorance. And Speedos.


Most recent thing I’ve bought myself: I bought a picture frame at a garage sale.


My favourite blonde is: Kmac


My favourite brunette is: My love


My favourite redhead is: My girlie!


My middle name is: Eve


Once, at a bar: I took my shoes off and climbed a cage


If I was an animal I’d be: a hummingbird.


Tonight I am: working. Being grateful. Sleeping I hope


Et toi…?

2. Meditate

3. Plant a garden

4. Learn to belly dance

5. Take a vacation

6.Cook through an entire cookbook

7.Blog more on my blog

8.Plan a girls weekend

9.Take a course i want to take

10. No drama


Update: Learned a few chords so far. I have learned to quiet down enough to medidate. I have learned the sashay around like Shakira...after a few rather funny looking attempts. Took a 'sorta' vacation. I have been cooking, and trying new recipies all the time...but not necessarily a cookbook. I blog much more! I am gettin busy workin on kicking drama to the curb...with moderate to looking good results.

I was made for loving you....Ode to a Weekend

This weekend was all about being awesome!! Tubular!! Stellar!! Neat0oOh!!! I loved it! Here's what went down:
I got a bottle of red after work at 9 on friday! I got home to a spink and span, clean as a whistle, home, the smooth jazz still on (I'm having fun at 'showing' my home or sale!) ran myself a bath, and hoped on in! Oh.....I raided some easter basket for leftover chocolate! Ah...Fridaying. My Love came over later, and spoiled me again with these pretty white mini roses~~
~~sigh....fridaying!


Satur-'funbag' day brought a crazy mix of creativity. Got up at 7 a.m.(There's the crazy...crazy old, whytf can't I sleep in anymore?!) Gotta gram alot of Satur-funbag day in while the goings good I guess! After some leisurely lazying aboot, we went out for breakfast to this cute lil corner gig, The Komfort Kafe. Super-happy morning staff there, served us up some of the best hashbrowns ever to tangle with my tastebuds! Caught up on the morning news...and made my first 'Random Kindness' drop

Check them out, from http://www.yesandyes.blogspot.com/. I made stickers outta them (ahhhhh..I LOVE, LOVE,LOVE 2-sided tape...ALOT!)

Then we proceeded over to the library where I got a stack of their largest books. Decorating books, and such only come in XL apparently! And off to commence Garage Sale Season 2010!! 3 Cheers and a fist pump in the air for garage sale season!
I got me some treasures: A red computer chair, new buttons for my purse...Donnie Walberg!!! Ronald McDonald, Energy Efficient Inspector and one that say, "Life is a mutual affair," All for FREE!!

And this stuff too!





The book is called Indias Love Songs, By: Laurence Hope. We located it at this nifty old used bookstore. So many wonderful treasure is other peoples junk!

We made Thai Sweet and Sour tofu for dinner:











So delish!


Then we created some art:

We crashed out nice and early, in a 'we were busy having fun' bliss. Sunday was full of coffee, dog walking, picture taking, taking it easy Sundayish fun.

Xoxoxo Weekend...I heart you, longtime!
P.S. A great huge junk of my day off Monday was used to bring you this Blog, and cussing alot about the cussing pictures not cussing going up properly. Cuss that is annoying. (Movie quote 'cussing'...from The Fantastic Mr. Fox pretty decent movie: FYI) Today was also brought to you by my grat-itude project. Check it out at www.grat-itude.blogspot.com

Change is inevitable, except in vending machines


I've had to see different specialist lately. And I have left their offices grateful but, wondering...how is it one decides to be a 'butt' doctor, (to the mature in the crowd...a GI doc) or a 'twat' doctor (ob-gyn). What??? Twat is better than other words!?! Which led me to thinking some more. I work at a telephone all day. I don't like to talk on the phone much when i get home. My love, he works with computers...he doesn't use the computer hardly at all after 5. So does the va jay jay doc go home, and say to the wife, "I've been looking at those all day...i just can't tonight huney?" That would suck to be that wifey! Also those sample collectors....worst job ever. Think you've had a ruff day...imagine the lab tech who spills on his/her shoes that day!! YUCK!! YUCK!!Kudos to all of you who can do these jobs. I would tip you if i could!
So ya...been up to some major hard thinking there. Also fun has been:
EASTER!!! The bunny showed up:And I made Mini Me an awesome breakie in bed:My love and I painted together, and I have some new decor for walls I'm selling:
I colored my hair brown for a change:


Spring has sprung and I'm spoiled:

and in love!!!And that's all for today. Over n' out for now!
