I'll tell you in a couple of days why I made this Layout!

"One"

Have you ever gotten a song stuck in your head and all you want to do is play it over and over? Well, I'm listening to Joe Cocker in my head and on my web! I'm thinking the lyrics might serve as inspiration for something....

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One life

One...

I had forgotten what a genius this guy is! (my opinion) Yea, I suppose I should give U-2 some credit here too....

Darkness

I started a layout yesterday.... I was going to use a new pink kit from Doris to make a new page for my art therapy book... started and was going are key phrases here... This layout quickly got dark and right in the middle, I lost all focus, so here it is... unfinished... I guess I will have to come back to it another day... maybe one when I really feel pink!

Hello darkness... is that a song?

Hmmm... the other day, I was feelin' pretty good, thought I would buy myself a treat... It wasn't what I was looking for, but at Gottschalks I found this beautiful gold chain and they were haveing a great sale.. $1000.00 came down to about $380.00. I was using my debit card to pay for it. When I showed my drivers license to the clerk, she looked at the photo and said "Wow! That must have been about 100 pounds ago." Great... just what I need right now... another reminder.... I think I'll take the chain back today.....
Oh yea, I remember now!

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

Back At It

sort of.. it's been about a month since I scrapped anything... and I'm not happy with anything I do.... argh! This is Rye last month when he caught the frogs. The entire quote is, "I catched him on the ground and I had him and he pee'ed on me. He was hungry but he wanted his mommy and his daddy and I like him! Is that not just the cutest thing!

Smile

Have a good time, make life cheerful and bright, dance if you want to, sing if you can, play as long as you live and leave the world with a smile. - Lemuel K. Washburn

Hanging On

by a thread.... Several years ago I suffered a huge emotional trauma that I am still trying to recover from. One of the many "issues" I am left with is the inability to cope in social situations. They just drain me and for years I avoided them all together. These past couple of months have just been full of them for me. I can't remember them all, but in the past two weeks, I have attended a birthday party for a family friend, had visitors from church on two occassions, took missionaries to dinner, picked up a hitch hiker, spent the day at the gun range with family (yes that counts), and hosted a birthday lucheon for my mother (today)... I have way over done... I am soo frazzled.... I sit here now in my home town at my mothers house knowing tommarrow only brings more and wondering how long I will be able to hold it together. 12:42 omgosh... i need to go to bed... moms dialup is too slow to do anything with anyway... I even canceled my incomming mail because it was too slow... LOL i picked it up on my blackberry zippy quick!
Night All!

Happy Birthday

to my dear friend Dan, whom I met when I was 10 years old... Todays play list is for you!
