Well that Kijiji run went pretty well.
Was a bit rocky but it all worked out in the end.
Gots me a new dining table and it makes a big difference!
No more wobbley, can't fit all my friends and the food, but it only looks pretty kinda table.
I mean it worked for what it did, and it wasnt that bad at all.
But since Ive been having people over lately Ive noticed little things that didnt sit with me right.
The height of it had me sitting at the edge of the seat "an inch makes a big difference people !!" - haha. And the slight wobble made me so concious of not leaning on it too much to disturb the other people.
Anyhow, I couldnt help but go back and forth sitting at my table and peeking in on it every so often. Such a good feeling. Hope Im not becoming materialistic - because I adore it more for the feel of it - more functional, maybe not the look I wanted, but more grounded and stable and useful, and it still follows my esthetics even though it has crazy legs.
wow. My life people... So. Exciting.
Who cares, Feng shui'in it makes me happy!
Looking forward to more!

Eng-grish....
Yesterday my Netflix fix was : 300, Rise of an Empire (wars between Greece and Persia)
Tonight Netflix fix is : Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (I think it's either a Japanese or Chinese story. Asian anyhow)
.... Why is it, in all these movies of different cultures, they all speak with English accents??
Food for thought.
I know what you're thinking ...... Again, another exciting night in the life of me! Right? Right?!
(Oh btw, it's been about 5 yrs since I went to Susur Lees resto downtown. I must say, menu has gotten better and it was sooo tastey!!
I'm still in love with their Slaw' till this day!
Go there. Get. The. Slaw. Done. ! )

Pin it 'n post it all 'or da place!
Been pinning and instagraming a lot lately.
Then ka-boom! Nada. On purpose.
Anyhow two quotes I'm mantra'ing about as of late:
Ruin is a gift, it is a road to transformation. - Elizabeth Gilbert.
And
Wake up Beauty!
It's time to Beast!!

New tattoo!
Like my new tattoo?
It's a tattoo of a Nebula!
Well, actually I played archery tag the other day. It was so fun!!! But this is what happens when you're more focused on running and shooting than positioning the bow properly.

Selective karma
The problem in believing that everything happens for a reason,
Is that you are the first one to know when karma kicked you in the butt!

Both nostrils!
Both nostrils are stuffed up!
Both!
Usually it's just one.
AND they are running like a tap.
And my eyes are joining in on all the fun.
But yes both nostrils stuffed up.
How am I supposed to breathe?
Dry up my mouth now.
Gah! Does this cold want me to die?
Just before my bitter freezing trip up north.
Perfecto!

The nightmare
Um... Not sure what made me think that I can watch from the "Horror" section of Netflix alone.
Gez. That lasted about 10 minutes.
I like watching horrors, but then I regret it while I restlessly try to sleep with the light on and one eye open.
Think I'll go back to watching The Office.

Uncanny...
It's interesting how I seem to know things before other people know it themselves....
Not to be arrogant or anything. Maybe I just over think of all the possibilities. Maybe I just know how the puzzle looks by extrapolating the pieces.
Sometimes it's a good thing - prepared. Nope not fearful.
Sometimes it's a bad thing - when I see the result will not match with what I feel the result should be.

This day I realized some goals . Not bucket list stuff yet but goals.
Usual stuff but need it to be priority:
Eat healthy, drink more water, keep active to be fit and feel great and have fun, exercise my a$$, love hard when there's love to be had, don't take the ones you love for granted, meditate ! - must learn patience, silence, and thoughtfulness - instead of being led by reactive emotions, especially when hurt, don't lose yourself trying to love someone else, make someone's day everyday. OH and sleep early!! Frig.
Mr Rogers neighborhood
When I come in to work and change from my shoes and socks into my work shoes and socks, it reminds me of Mr. Rogers.
Was going to post a pic of him and the show, but it all looks kinda creepy now, looking back at it. Don't know why.

OFF track....
Wow.
I started from the bottom now I'm.... well. Here?
Where's here anyhow?
This morning as I realized that its a new start of a new month and that Im full aware the days are passing ever so quickly that I must come up with a plan to get things done this year... (where was I going... thats a long sentence)....
Anyhow, I realized I've been focused on my huge ass personal injury from last year and trying to struggle to get out of that and I know I have forgotten who I was or really am.
(deep eh?)
I went to the beginning of this blog (bottom) to put the focus on who I am again and to read my light hearted thoughts (this was the purpose of this blog was to be more light hearted).
Gez man, where did my humor go? Its practically NULL right now. Where are all the recipes I planned to keep in this blog so that I can become some super chef and home maker and wonderful insights into my every day happenings and career woman and over all SUPER WOMAN! I had real estate plans, career plans, helping underpriveledged kids plans... where'd it all go?
Gotta git back on dat. Time is a passin and I shouldnt waste.
Watched "The Bucket List" again on Netflix last night. Not as big an impact as it was when I first watched it a few yrs ago. For years now, Ive been meaning to make a new bucket list. Im at a loss as what to put into it. Dare I put get married on it?
That movie was ok.... sure, we would all like to be able to travel the world last minute and have a crap load of moola to do it with... but we gotta be realistic now.
I realize Im wasting a lot of time getting over this heart-ache funk. Its the biggest and most damaging I've ever been through.
I'm sure I can give my old self the advice of "protecting your heart" but I already knew it back then, and chose the road to stop protecting myself and to experience life (cause there is a thing of over protecting yourself and not living life), but you never really learn the full meaning of advice or words of wisdom until you live it.
I wouldnt wish this on my worst enemy. Twas a killer.
Anyhoot... there is no other choice but to chug through it and check later if I made it through with all my parts in tact. But Im still going through it. Not fast enough.
