	What I'm Thankful For and What I Hope For

What I am thankful for:

1. I found LJ and made some really nice firends on it. and of course the wonderful

araestel was my first LJ friend.

2. I bought my first home after years of apartment living. Even though it's made me broker than I have ever been in my life and I will probably never be out of debt now. LOL - I think.... I am thankful I have it

3. I am thankful I still have faith even though I question it daily it seems

What I hope for:

1. That my the hopes and dreams of my friends and family come true (mine too)

2. That my mother and sister's health improves

3. That I find my knight in shining armor

Am I asking too much? :-)

Sweetheart, thank you... *hugs you tight*

Please let me know when you will have gotten your Viggo clips from friends so I could send you the missing ones. I wanted to make you CDs and I ended up with too much stuff just to make one or two! It would be easier to know what you already got or what your heart really desires!

*kisses*

Okay honey. So far, I'm not getting any Viggo, but I've not received any cd's in the mail yet.

*hugs*

I'm thankful
1) for having met so many nice people in this fandom.
2) that my writer's block finally ended and I was able to write again.
3) that I have found the courage to change some RL things.

For 2006 I hope
1) that my flist will have less reason for depressing/sad posts. I want everyone to be happy.
2) to get to know my flist better.
3) to stay like I am.

I like this - if you don't mind I'm going to borrow it and post it in my own LJ. It's better than listing out all the resolutions that I will never keep (although I'll probably do that too). So without further ado:

What I'm thankful for:
1. My family, my old friends, and all the new friends I've made both on LJ and in RL.
2. My various obsessions because they've kept me sane when nothing else could.
3. My ability to be independent.

Hopes:
1. That I will finally find a job that I can enjoy.
2. That my knight in shining armor will ride up on his white horse and sweep me off my feet.
3. That my best friend's cancer will be gone forever.

*hugs*

This shouldn't be hard, but it is. 2005 will probably go down as one of the worst years of my life. Still, there were good things.
1. I'm glad I have my family and friends and critters. They make it worth going on when sometimes it seems like it'd be easier not to continue.
2. I'm glad I found LJ. It's helped keep the fandom alive for me, which is one of the sources of joy in my life.
3. I'm glad I didn't live in New Orleans and that I didn't get creamed dead in the auto crash at Thanksgiving. Survival and having a place to live is a good thing.

What I hope for in the new year is:
1. Better health for myself that starts with a mental adjustment which will get me back on track with diet, exercise, and out of this depression.
2. Good health and good times for my family and friends.
3. Writing more DS and finishing BYGONES and finding time to really play with the Mountie and RayK.

LOL You're adopted?? Me too!!!!!

It's so strange how I've always gravitated toward fellow adoptees. It's actually kinda strange. LOL

Thankful:
1 That I have such a great f/list and some great online friends who've helped keep me sane this year, especially when it came to dealing with my mum liukemia.

2 That I've survived working 2 jobs and had the best time of my life on a contiki tour.

3 That I actually achieved something I'd always wanted to do and that was go to New Zealand.

Hopes
1 That I will become debt free this year.

2 That I will get motivated to start my University education.

3 That I can make people smile and maybe help solve some of the things they are dealing with.

Say Yes to the Dress

Apart by Viggo Mortensen

you found my keys
on an angel's hip
moved half the fallen trees
from the frozen road.

this trip is
all i thought
it would be
and we're not
even 1/2 way yet.

if i can't touch you
with snow-hung firs
our only witnesses
can't have your eyes
when everyone's asleep
then the fire's almost out.

you ask the un-named
attractions to leave town
but keep checking
it i'm still around.

should we sidestep
putting fingers to
words tracing lips that
would inform us?

once said i'd missed
you every instant
before we'd met.
now believe we knew
how sad we'd be
apart.
