My Yarn Wish List for this year.

I have been drooling over the yarnage lately. I am feeling needy, so I thought I'd post pics of all the yarns i want to acquire this year. I probably wont be buying any though, and will be more likely to try dying similar things myself instead. but here they are.

Sigh...religion strikes again...

I really can't express how much I hate religion. It makes potentially smart people say and do the stupidest things...

Why is it that a religious person is first to credit god with the hard work and ingenuity of doctors and scientists? Someone survives after a horrific accident...ITS A FUCKING MIRACLE!

Why is it that religious politicians can get away with pushing a religious agenda is what is supposed to be a free democratic society like the USA. I really feel for you United States. Your politicians are fucking retarded. Not that ours aren't...but they have never declared 3 days of prayer when we have been in drought....which we were....for years... and i am glad they never did, because It is insulting to the intelligence of all free thinking humans to have a government with a religious agenda...and that goes for ANY country.

feeling damn goooood :)

Despite the miserable weather, I am feeling good. Dinner and a double feature horror flicks at home for my birthday did me wonders. Tonight's dinner is Chicken and Avocado tacos. I am feeling indulgent and having TWO meaty meals in a row! but tomorrow is veggie soup and back to the ol' vego food again. I do crave the taste of earthy vegetable skins....

Upcoming Birthday. :)

So it is my 24th Birthday in 2 days, and I am actually looking forward to it. My daughter is away for the Holidays at her Nana'a house, and Ryan and I are having a souvlaki dinner. It should be wonderful :)

...





You walk on like a woman in suffering
Won't even bother now to tell me why
You come alone, letting all of us savour the moment
Leaving me broken another time
You come on like a bloodstained hurricane
Leave me alone, let me be this time
You carry on like a holy man pushing redemption
I don't want to mention, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

You don't know what your power has done to me
I want to know if I'll heal inside
I can't go on with a holocaust about to happen
Seeing you laughing another time
You'll never know why your face has haunted me
My very soul has to bleed this time
Another hole in the wall of my inner
defences
Leaving me breathless, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

Into the abyss will I run

You walk on like a woman in suffering
Won't even bother now to tell me why
You come alone, letting all of us savour the moment
Leaving me broken another time
You come on like a bloodstained hurricane
Leave me alone, let me be this time
You carry on like a holy man pushing redemption
I don't want to mention, the reason I know

That I am stricken and can't let you go
When the heart is cold, there's no hope, and we know
That I am crippled by all that you've done
Into the abyss will I run

Into the abyss will I run
I can't let you go
Yes I am stricken and can't let you go

Very generous gifts.

I have been gifted twice now in the last month with some very generous gifts. The first one was a $50 note that someone left in my front door. They left it anonymously, but I think I know who it was. I can't be 100% sure though, so i will not name names. The generosity has stuck in my mind, as the donation has helped me to pay for my Uni text books, which overall, ended up costing me nearly $550 - actually less than they were going to originally, due to me getting one of them second hand. I want the gifter to know, that I truly love and appreciate them. THANK YOU!

The second gift, I have been asked not to give details about, but I did not feel I could let the extremely generous gesture go unmentioned. So, without (again) Naming Names, Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Your generosity is very keenly felt and I promise, I will make it up to you as soon as I am able to. If you read this, thank you.

I feel like i have been on the receiving end of more than my fair share of kindness and generosity. I am so humbled by the very kind actions of two very special people. I promise, I will make it up to everyone. Thank you!

ERYN.
