just when you thought...

DANG IT. I really don't mind hunting, as a matter of fact Zach asked if I'd ever want to go with him and I was thrilled! I had secretly been hoping he would ask me sometime... I've always wanted to give it a try. Walking about in the woods does sound like a lot of fun and the time of year is always so pretty. Well, my excitement to join the fun just came to a screeching halt. Last night was a bit of restless night, but upon looking outside, you won't hear my complaining. We live near the mountains - dealing with bears and cougars is a weekly and sometimes daily occurrence, but that also means we don't have to pick up the apples or plums from the trees because the animals eat them all. Couple of weeks ago I stood in the kitchen and watched a doe eat the apples ten yards from our back door while her twin fawns poked and teased her, more interested in playing than eating. Spots still on um people, talk about cute :) Anyway, last night, the elk were BUSY! Sooooooo much ...

THE WORLD. on a wall.

So, I found an island, Admiralty Island, actually I shouldn't say I found it, its already BEEN found, but at any rate, I was checking out the map today and found a couple MORE Admiralty Islands, including the one we went fishin on in Alaska this summer, all over the world! Its fun the things a person can find on a map! Some people read books in the car, I read a map. I stare at it, study it, memorize it. I love maps! This one hangs in our living room - no wonder I like to explore new places huh!? I've got exhibit 'a', showcasing slash teasing me every minute I'm at home just flaunting the world in front of my eyes saying "aren't I preeeeeeetty? Don't you want to know what thiiiiiiiiiiiis looks like? :) Its not a fascination with travel, its a yearning for EXPLORING! Truly - it matters not where I find myself! But I always want to know... Whats down that street? Whats through that door? Who is that person? Why are they eating that? Where did they get...

back. BACK. BACK!

OH MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH, OH MY GOSH ... I'm BACK!!!! I'm so sorry I cheated on you! That I bailed, that I left, that I went for that deceivingly greener grass! Forgiveness? I know you're not the Lord and even if you did have children how very selfish of me to ask you sacrifice them because I tried something new and now feel obviously horrible about it... BUT, perhaps you can find it in your hearts to check here from now on? Ridiculously frustrating on my account. I apologize. I'm sorry. I don't have much time here today, applying for this job has just got me all confused and pent up in ways I never knew possible, but I have to say that it feels better than ever to be typing in this text box and putting my plain black text on a plain white background. Its simple, and its free of expectation because it is, what it is. I love it. I absolutely LOVE it. You know what else I love? Ice Cream. So does Jennifer :) and lots of other people, but I know she really likes it. Da...
