So another post

This Friday is the Annual Police and Fire Awards Banquet. I am bringing James, and my Mother is going to be there, and possibly my grandparents. Larry's family will be there, and well I hope it is not an overload for the boy! I guess I am getting some sort of award, probably just a certificate of commendation for something, maybe my weak translator skills... or maybe just a longevity award, for being on of those employees who sticks around... I dunno. I dunno what to wear either... I may have to go shopping. bah humbug

I know a few of my readers really enjoy celtic music, so here is a sample from the Celtic Circle Cd's that Larry found. I love it!

Valentines day has never been a very good day for me, it seems as though I always break up with someone right before it, or walk in on them cheating on me the day prior. Well in five years, I have dreaded this aweful day. This year, I am actually looking forward to it. James and I have reservations for the following weekend to go eat at the Melting Pot, only one of the most romantic atmosphers in this area. It is so neat! They specialize in fondue type foods, staring with a chesse dip, and then bringing out hot greese, so that you cook your own food, and dessert OMG dessert is the best, special melted chocolate with all kinds of things to dip in it, things that normally would not even sound good dipped in chocolate. I may die from an allergy to chocolate, but by golly I am going to eat some! :) We are probably going to meet that night to exchange gifts, I found him the coolest thing, but I cannot tell you about it as he may be reading this too... Hi James ... Mwhaaaaa!

I made dinner last night, Pot roast, it was really good. How wierd is this though, my mom, my supervisor and I all made pot roast, without calling each other. I have not made a pot roast in like 5 years ~ what are the chances??? I also made cookies, really pretty cookies. They are cream cheese cookies, cut into heart shapes, and then half dipped in chocolate. I found the receipe in a magazine in the checkout, and it said easy cookie receipe... easy my ass! But they are very pretty!

I want to give props to Selena for her artwork, which you can find here! My personal favorite is Peaceful Glare! She has some amazing talent! Makes me wish I had time to pick up a pencil again! I miss drawing ~ However, I never say the day I was half as good as her! Man she is good!

My spiderbite is doing well. I am extremely happy that I can wear a bra again! I am almost finished with the darned prednisone and the antibiotics too, which is a good thing. I had my follow up visit today, and there is but a wee bump left under the skin, no larger than a small cyst, so I can deal with that. I do not have lime desease, and the infection was in the blood, but the antibiotics should have killed any of that!

I would like to ask that you keep msbeach and her son Larry in your thoughts and prayers, as they are facing some trying times. I have nothing but the utmost respect and awe for this woman. No matter what life throws her, she never takes off her catcher's mit. She has more strength than I thought was humanly possible. And she always manages to make me smile. How do you do it msbeach?

Thought for the day: No man was ever wise by chance. ~ Seneca

Okay maybe two thoughts for today, as I did not leave one Saturday night...

Two things a man should never be angry at: what he can help, and what he cannot help. ~Thomas Fuller

Factoid: The Boston University Bridge is the only place in the world where a boat can sail under a train driving under a car driving under an airplane. hmmmm, too bad there is not a subway beneath all of that! :)

Espanol: Faithful = Fiel for example El es fiel, he is faithful. Amable = nice or kind for example Soy amable. I am kind. and La admiro = I admire her. for example La admiro msbeach.

I will continue to pray for ms beach and larry x
I found a pretty place where you can light candles online for people that you are praying for or even for yourself, I don't normally post links in comments bc it feels somewhat spammy, but this is special:

I actually forwarded her that link, before she started posting personal information on what was wrong. I just knew that she might need the power of prayer behind her, but now that I do know, I posted a prayer request there! Thanks Carmel!
