| haha, jk... but yah im gonna study for english again... so see if you can read this. So i had a volleyball tournament yesterday. and after that i was supposed to work, i had an ARBITRARY time to be back at work. well the tournament went later than i had expected so i called my bos and had an ARDUOUS time trying to get back on time. The busride was kinda miserable...it was so ARID. We stopped at McDonalds on the way home, but the busdriver was too ARROGANT to order anything to eat because we were in such a hurry. But i guess if he wanted to be ASCETIC, thats his choice. The ASSESSMENT that i had made of the return time was fairly accurate. Not to be ASTUTE, but i was only 5 minutes off. I finally arrived at work and my boss emphasized that i had to be ARTICULATE in everything i did. There was a wedding reception so everything had to be perfect. As the night progressed, the intake of beer AUGMENTED and the kitchen turned into an ASYLUM!! ok, if you didn't catch some of those words, here ya go: ARBITRARY - Fixed or definite, imperious; tyrannical; despotic ARDUOUS - Hard; strenuous ARID - Dry; barren ARROGANCE - Pride; haughtiness ARTICULATE - Effective; distinct ASCETIC - Practicing self-denial; austere ASSESSMENT - Estimation ASTUTE - Wise; shrewd ASYLUM - Place of refuge or shelter; protection Augment - Increase |

| Pictures from my childhood |

| When I was younger... I spent countless hours amidst this strip of trees I called my fort. I have four younger sisters, who also claimed this as a place to sneak cans of pop and candy bars out to. I had many adventures here and recently revisited it today. I took these pictures, so enjoy!! Here is the entrance to the Hallway. As you can see, there is spacious area to walk due to "Spring Cleaning" that I performed every time the branches grew out. There is also a well-trodden path created from the many times we walked through here.  Once inside, you can get a better view  As we pass through the Hallway, we come upon the great Apple Tree I fed my young children from (my sisters).  To the left of the Apple Tree, we enter the Living Room. This area is small, but cozy, and many memories were made here.  If you look closely, you can see a bucket hanging in the Living Room. It was crucial to hang our "Food" high in a tree to prevent the wild animals from getting to it.  To cook this Food and keep us warm on chilly nights, we had this adorable Fireplace.  Now of course, every fort needs something else... correct? So back off into the woods we go.  And behind door #1!! It's a Toilet!! Don't worry, we never used it!  We even have Toilet Paper!  Yes friends, Toilet Paper on a tree!  And of course, what would a Bathroom be without a Sink??  That's all Folks! |

| Last night was incredible!! Bryan had his going away party before he leaves for college. I got to his house around 8:00, well later actually and there were some really diverse people there but it kept things interesting. We stood around and talked for a while. Angela came... she loves to torment me about my love life, or lack thereof. Ryan rode with me because he didn't know where Bryan lived, so of course, when we walked to the school house together, Angela got all mushy and gave me the 20 question routine every time i'm seen with a male. lol. before the night was over, she accused me of being madly in love with Ryan, Trevor, Jonas, and Mike. Mike and I decided to put on a show for her. We cuddled up for part of the show and she went crazy!! it was hilarious. Amidst her bubbling of curiousity, we decided to quietly slip out of the schoolhouse and out to the campfire. That really got her going. She came out to "join us", of course she was spying on us. So we took the game a little further and we walked to his car together so he could "get his sweatshirt". We did have some things to talk about, so we took our sweet time. Man, Angela, lol she really got worked up then!! it was great. She's only 13 or 14!! *sigh* she makes me laugh. when i do get another boyfriend, the poor boy will have to endure Angela's wrath just to be with me!! lol. The night continued on and more people came. Earl drove Condined (a band put together from kids from our youth group) and their equipment out, so they put on their last show. *sniff* they're going to different colleges and won't be able to perform anymore together. it was an okay show. Chauncey had to play drumset because the other drummer already left the band. Overall, the party was a real success. I was really sad to see it end. There are many people there, who, that may have been the last time i saw them before they leave for college come the end of this week. Tenley and Kyrie are off to Wausau. Bryan to Iowa, Earl, Eric, Laura, and Natalie to Point. ummm... who else. well Jake will be staying home I suppose, until 2nd semester. Im going to miss them all. Earl, gave me a goodbye hug. I really hope that he comes to the football game Friday night, seeing that he doesn't leave until Saturday afternoon. I really need better closure before he's gone. The hug was good and all, he was wearing a sweatshirt *drools* and i really think it was heartfelt. But I wish we could sit down and have a conversation before he leaves. Oh well. Maybe some other time. Probably not. lol. I just know that I will miss him and that a part of my heart will forever be missing because he's still got a hold of it. |

| Each year he sent her roses, and the note would always say, I love you even more this year, than last year on this day. My love for you will always grow, with every passing year." She knew this was the last time that the roses would appear. She thought, he ordered roses in advance before this day. Her loving husband did not know, that he would pass away. He always liked to do things early, way before the time. Then, if he got too busy, everything would work out fine. She trimmed the stems and placed them in a very special vase. Then, sat the vase beside the portrait of his smiling face. She would sit for hours, In her husband's favorite chair. While staring at his picture, and the roses sitting there. A year went by, and it was to live without her mate. With loneliness and solitude, that had become her fate. Then, the very hour, as on Valentines before, The doorbell rang, and there were roses sitting by her door. She brought the roses in, and then just looked at them in shock. Then, went to get the telephone, to call the florist shop. The owner answered, and she asked him, if he would explain, Why would someone do this to her, causing her such pain? "I know your husband passed away, more than a year ago," The owner said, "I knew you'd call, and you would want to know. The flowers you received today, were paid for in advance. Your husband always planned ahead, he left nothing to chance. There is a standing order, that I have on file down here, And he has paid, well in advance, you'll get them every year. There also is another thing, that I think you should know, He wrote a special little card... he did this years ago. Then, should ever I find out that he's no longer here, that's the card that should be sent to you the following year." She thanked him and hung up the phone, her tears now flowing hard. Her fingers shaking, as she slowly reached To get the card. Inside the card, she saw that he had written her a note. Then, as she stared in total silence, this is what he wrote... "Hello my love, I know it's been a year since I've been gone. I hope it hasn't been too hard for you to overcome. I know it must be lonely, and the pain is very real. Or if it was the other way, I know how I would feel. The love we shared made everything so beautiful in life. I loved you more than words can say, you were the perfect wife. You were my friend and lover, you fulfilled my every need. I know it's only been a year, but please try not to grieve. I want you to be happy, even when you shed your tears. That is why the roses will be sent to you for years. When you get these roses, think of all the happiness, That we had together, and how both of us were blessed. I have always loved you and I know I always will. But, my love, you must go on, you have some living still. Please...try to find happiness, while living out your days. I know it is not easy, but I hope you find some ways. The roses will come every year, and they will only stop, When your door's not answered, when the florist stops to knock. He will come five times that day, in case you have gone out. But after his last visit, he will know without a doubt To take the roses to the place, where I've instructed him. and place the roses where we are, together once again. Sometimes in life, you find a special friend; Someone who changes your life just by being part of it. Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop; Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world. Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it. If I ever find a man who would do something as sweet as that for me, I don't know what I would do with myself. |
