When I pause for a moment in my world of distraction, the procrastination I create for myself, I find my center of creativity and desire. The two flow together easily and I want to be more creative. However, I allow noise to infiltrate my calm and that center is pushed down, hidden by the rest of the world. I want to write. I NEED to do so, to ( Read more... )

As always, I take my sweet time getting back to updating Livejournal. I'll admit I've been on Twitter more (much shorter updates) instead of here. Now, I have a Tumblr account and I'm actually impressed. You can view updates at Heav'n's exiled queens. I'll try to at least update that more regularly. I really am starting the school procrastination ( Read more... )

Today was wonderful, but health wise I did not succeed as much as I should. I promised to make Marc meatloaf like two weeks ago when he asked, but it wasn't until today that I actually got to it. so, meatloaf is not exactly healthy, though I will have to try turkey loaf one of these days. I also made baby yukon gold potatos (smashed..meaning I ( Read more... )

So, we're painting the house! Yeah!!! I promise to actually share pictures of our home when it is finished. We're doing a pretty tan in the main parts of the house (Library-formerly the dining room but we all know libraries are way cooler-family room and halls) and then the kitchen is this pretty light plum color, or it will be when we go buy the ( Read more... )

I went ahead and started a new LJ to write about my weight loss and health. It is merereflections if you care to follow and join in the conversation about health goals and weight loss. It isn't just about conforming to a standard. That I will never believe in. However, it IS about being healthy and happy in every way ( Read more... )

I am feeling very productive today. Maybe it is just because I followed a routine: school, lunch, workout, home. It's nice to leave the house, and I'll be doing more of that this semester than I have in the past ( Read more... )

Not long ago, I promised myself I would write on here more, or at least in my own private journal. The idea was (and still is) to rediscover the simple joy of writing, no matter how minute, and relish in the beauty of thoughts and languages. These are some of the reasons I became an English major in the first place, and it seems I have lost, or ( Read more... )

I probably should update more often or share more things, but I am pretty lazy and easily distracted by shiny games, books, movies, and life in general. Speaking of shiny, Marc and I moved into our new house this weekend! I will post pictures eventually. We have plenty of work to do, but most of it is work we simply want to do. The house is in ( Read more... )

So...haven't updated in a LONG time. I haven't wanted to bore the world with my emotional spiral. :) All that school stress. Anyway, all is getting better and in the best of news...we have a contract on a HOUSE ( Read more... )
