Happy birthday Mitchell!

Today was my brother's 12th birthday.  I was allowed to take the day off, so I caught the bus in to White Rock and spent the day with him and the rest of the family.  It's always great to hang out with them...I hate saying goodbye at the end though.  Some of the kids get a little teary-eyed, and I feel I'm leaving part of myself behind.  Still, this time wasn't SOOOO bad as they're planning to come in to town in a few days and spend the afternoon with me.

This afternoon Mom and I visited a second hand bookstore (always a dangerous place for us!!!) where we found a couple of books to take home.  She and Dad have been reading "Conversations With God" by Neale Donald Walsch, and we found another book by him called "Tomorrow's God" that she and Dad decided to buy.  I found a book called "The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz that I recently heard about (via a new friend I made while playing a game called "Kingdoms of Camelot" on Facebook) and was wanting to read.  However, Mom was also interested in it so I left it in White Rock for her to read while she's there.  She started it this afternoon and already found it interesting enough to share a few things with me...which of course peaked my interest and now I can't wait to read it myself!!!

So glad you got to share the day with us, too. We shouldn't be saying 'Goodbye' but 'See you later'!! Because we always do.

About Me

I was born and I will die. I eat, breath, sleep, talk, and periodically raise my voice. For a little variation I read, watch movies, and walk on the beach. I am a Christian, a Canadian, and a homeschool graduate. When it rains I stare at the windshield wipers and get mad when the wipers move a little too fast for the stream of water that is desperately trying to get away. When it's sunny I walk down to the beach and think about amnesiacs washing up on the shore. When it snows I stay inside with a book and curl up in a blanket. I like CSI Las Vegas, Criminal Minds, and Firefly. I like dark chocolate and dandelions and daisies and wild roses. And RED.
