Merry Christmas Eve Eve!!


This song from Michael Buble's new christmas album makes me want to dance!

Last Month...in a chestnut!

To cover my poor posting abilities of last month and because so much happened that I want to remember...here's a rundown of 10 things that went dowwwn in the month of November!

1. Quit hellish waitressing job.

2. Started sprouting too many spots to count!

3. As one door closed, another one opened...I got offered a new job!

4. But continued to sprout spots!

5. Our adult syncrhonized skating team won bronze medals in the British :)

6. Spots still remained!!

7. Started new job.

8. Spots erupted!

9. Stayed in new job.

10. I zapped my spots- woooo!!!

Piano Elegance

I love music and I love the elegant qualities of piano music. 

I wrote my last post, about a dream I had, whilst listening to a similar version of this, "My Heart Will Go On" on piano.  




Dreams are..

I dreamt a dream.
A dream, not a story or a nightmare, a dream. 


An immense empty hall.
Lit by candles; held up high and low by enchantment.
The sounds of music echo from wall to wall.
A peaceful music, a reflective beautiful kind of music.
The air feels cold and damp as I glide across the room through layers of floating mists.
It is peaceful, magical and still. 

At one end of the hall, the tall entrance doors are FLUNG open to the elements. 
The howling winds of the winters evening WHIP around the rink. 
The candlelight flickers and dims without going out. 
With each jump, spin and move that I take; I am lifted off the frozen grounds and carried along by the whipping air.
I am flying, flying and dancing. 
This way, 
and that way.
With complete control, elegance and grace. 
The music gets louder and the winds get stronger.
And so with each beat, my heart rises and my feet are grounded for that split second. 

I could do this all night...
And so.. for me, this is what dreams are made of.

Today.

Today, I want all my worries to go away.
Today, I have been led astray.

But, no...

Today, I will tell the world.
Today, I will not be hurled.
Today, I will be strong.
Just like in those songs.
Today, I will take a step.
I am not afraid of the depth.
Today, I will not hide.
Today, I have pride.

Today...is the right day.

But always, today is not.
Today, someone has been wronged.
To today, this does not belong.
Today, it will not work.
I can't find my way in the murk.

Today is such a jeopardous day.

When is the right day?

Today?

337 days and counting...








I've been home for a week! But it feels like an age since I was here! I can't wait to go back! 

337 days and counting...
