down by the river with tan tan

gurgles and tan tan went for a walk by the river. because tan tan is still too shy to post many pictures of her bootiful self, gurgles shall do the honor!

goal of the day: to get quiet tan tan to have fun and let down her hair

(shh....nobody needs to know those are my jammies, k?)

thankful thursday.... on friday

but hey, it's my first. tanya started it yesterday, and i like it so thought i'd give it a go.


what am i thankful for today?

i am thankful for dear friends who, no matter how difficult their life is, take the time to have you a part of their life, and make your life all the richer.

i am thankful for fresh air, clean surroundings, and ikea.

i am thankful for a toilet that flushes *and* somehow manages to not sound like i have an imaginary roommate who's tinkling all day long!

i am thankful for a mom who i love very much, and i miss very much, and i look forward to seeing again, one day, in the great beyond......

i am thankful that there are some things that i don't understand.... like just what 'the great beyond' means, or where that phrase comes from.... and not knowing everything brings humility.

i am thankful for the slow but sure taking down of my harp from the willow tree.....

i am thankful that this life is but a vapour.... it makes all things endurable.

<><

ok, here's an update!

hey there y'all. wow, it's been almost a month since my last post! i don't know why i haven't wanted to come online, but i just didn't. i don't even really want to be on it anymore today. i have enough going on in the 3-D realm, y'know?

dunno.

so i am finished moving out of the other place. doing lots of laundry. ordered a bunch of ikea furniture and got rid of my musty furniture (a moldy house is an expensive mistake).

and it came in today! it's hanging out at the couriors until i can pick it up.

perfect timing, cuz i just got my furniture out two days ago! got some cleaning done, too. it's all good.

it's all good. :)
