Slip, slip, slipped away...

Oh dear. These days nothing stimulates me:

Work, work, work, mind away...

And in matters of discussion:

Talk, talk, us away...

Remain, anticipate, WAIT.

What I Can't Hear Enough Of Lately:

(CHRISTMAS) WISHLIST

This watch will go with everything.
I know it's trendy... but I can't help but wanting one.

Finished the Christmas shopping today minus a few minor details. On that note, thought I would give a certain someone hints on what I have on my wishlist :-)

CHRISTMAS PROJECTS:

Handmade ornaments in purples, burgandys and gold for my tree.
Chocolate Gingerbread Squares.

SHOPPING DONE SO FAR: 3.5/9... better get on it!

Dustin planned to take me out to see my cabin at Elk Ridge on the first day of our 4 day weekend. I have a cabin there, and since its on it's final steps of being finished, he thought it would be a great way to spend our day. We travelled out there and the weather, although sunny and bright, was cold but we were enjoying having a day off together. We viewed the cabin and then decided to travel to Waskeisu. Since Waskeisu is more of a summer tourism town, it is almost completely deserted in the winter. The stores and restaurants are empty and the streets don't get cleared. The only thing open was the Halwood Hotel and Restaurant. We decided to take a walk to the end of the cement dock, a place we had spent previous summers together. He got down and one knee.. and asked me... and I said yes. I was very surprised and totally thrilled. Still am :-)

WEDDING WISHLIST: Updated

Lest I Forget...

We cannot know, we were not there, it's beyond our comprehension
To know the toll that battle brings, of resolute intention
To carry on, day by day, for all you loved and hoped for
To live in peace a happy life, away from bloody war

For far too many, no long life ahead, free of struggle and pain and the gun
And we must remember the price that was paid, by each and every one
Regardless of views, opinions aside, no matter how each of us sees it
They were there and I cannot forget, even though I did not live it

I do not know your name, but I know you died
I do not know from where you came, but I know you died.

Kenny Martin

At the end of a long, long day
There is not much more to say then love
I'm so glad I met you

friday.

most THANKUL for...

-my #1. He makes me smile when days are gray; my best friend.

-my family. Im happy that distance dosen't have to seperate us.

-the gorgeous fall weather that helped my dad and his crew take the crops off in time.

-my beautiful new car!

-my promotion at work and the opportunities and learning experiences it holds!

-bike rides in crisp weather and ending it all off with a pumpkin spice latte.

-a new kind of contentment that just seems to stick.

Looking out my window at 8:19 a.m. My window to mountains, the peek of sun amoung the clouds. The sound of Ray Lamontagne.

And... a big question sitting beside me. It seems to follow me everywhere I go. Im fine, and I remember... I wonder why it traps me with those emotions. I hit my hand against the couch to get a reaction. I know you don't know about it. But I also know I don't want you to know about it.

Obsessed...

Its been awhile.

Since, i've felt like this.

To close my eyes and breathe. Breathe in all this new, this unexpected, the unknown.

Inspire.

Inspired.

BEST NEWS OF MY LIFE.
Urban Outfitters decreased their Canadian shipping rates.

I am going to be in so broke...

"We'll fall just like stars being hung by only string
Everything, everything, here is gone
No map can direct how to ever make it home
We're alone, we're alone, we're alone"

I Love You So Much I Could Leave You.

"I used to have such an appetite for my life, and now it's just gone.."

, an

I am SO spoiled,

FINALLY;

Winter decided to fall, again.

Waiting on the sunshine, or the promise of easy happiness.

Waiting on the day I won't have to worry anymore, to trust.

Waiting on the day I finally decide that there is something out there that's forever, for me.

I heard that nothing lasts forever, though.

Today, we stopped to take a break from the everlasting twists and turns of the 360 coming home from Hanna to find an old "abandoned" church, although I knew somebody had been there recently. Making sure the windows, the statue of Jesus were clean, and flowers kept.

It reminded me when I was younger and my absolute yearning for a good story, to explore, to dig deeper.

I miss that. Do we just get used to living on the surface?

I forget what's really important.
