Rain!

2008-11-01T22:25:27Z

We are moving, me and my Kevin. We're moving to a different city not far from where we currently live. Right now we are sleeping on the floor because we already moved our bed to the new place. For some reason I enjoy the change.

And its raining! Heavy, pouring beautiful rain. I've missed it so much here in dry, sunny California. It's drumming heavily on the roof and I love it!

I sat on my husband's lap and closed my eyes. I touched his hair, his skin, his lips and loved that he was just there. What I wouldn't give to be able to touch my parents and sister again. Losing them has taught me to appreciate having someone here with me. Now. Soon they will be gone. And I will too.

Reese's

2007-09-28T02:28:32Z

In America they have Reese's, a a beautiful dark or white chocolate with peanut butter, and I can't stop eating it! I'm totally hooked. I just got some at the local gas-station. Yum!

I can feel my sensitive body rebelling against so much sugar. Ugh. I feel lightheaded and nauseous. Delicious pain.

What is your Patronus (from Harry Potter)?

Your patronus is the unicorn. The unicorn is a kind and selfless creature; it is also very rare. There aren't many people willing to show kindness to a stranger in today's world. Consider yourself lucky to be blessed with such a selfless spirit, but be sure to also address your own needs.

I can't believe I'm married! It feels so strange, and good. Like a dream.

Below is the link to the wedding photos. I feel a little sad that I didn't get to have that dream wedding, but we'll have a wedding party sometime later. I'll express some of my wedding fantasies then. I owe it to the girly girl inside me.

I'm a married woman :)

Sick

2007-07-29T22:32:17Z

I'm sick. My whole body aches and I feel very weak. I've been feeling weak for some time now, but I kept pushing myself anyway because I thought I was being silly since I had no "real" reason to rest.

I've learned my lesson. My body knows what it needs even when I don't understand why.

Edit: I think I got a heatstroke.

Snow bunnies don't belong in the sun.

Me getting married? Really?

2007-07-18T19:03:45Z

Yes. I got engaged a few days ago, but I was hesitant to tell anyone. I was afraid. I still am in a sense. I feel dizzy! But it also feels so right, and I've decided to go with that. I want to be with my Kevin!

I love the ring. It's a diamond-snowflake-ring. So pretty. I keep looking down on my finger to check if it's still there. And it glittersssss!

Things are going better in the US. Me and the boy went out yesterday and found ourselves a dresser at a yard-sale for 20 dollars. I got a stuffed animals for free. Hee! It's a dark brown dog with antlers. I also bought a book on goddesses with amazing paintings.

Today we went out for sushi. Fun.

USA

2007-06-15T22:47:57Z

I'm in the US. Wow. I'm staying with the boy and it's nice, but I'm dealing with a lot of anxiety. I barely dare to step outside the apartment!

I feel naked in the sense that I don't know where home is. I don't even know who I am anymore. Sometimes I feel there's a warrior trapped inside me, behind all this fear and insecurity. I've been watching Mulan a lot. I love that movie :P

Intuition

2007-04-23T11:41:45Z

How hard should it be to follow your heart, or rather, your intuition?

Only two days ago I had my plans set. I was going to move to my brother and his wife in June, before taking a three months long vacation in the US. But now something is telling me to wait, to slow down and take a small trip to Wales in July, and attend a retreat. Of course all this will be more expensive, more complicated, and it means it will be longer until I get to see the boy again. So in despair and confusion I try to reason with my heart, but to no avail, - the heart does not make compromises.

This is what I wanted, wasn't it? I wanted to listen more to my intuition. It makes everything more exciting, more alive! I just wish I didn't feel so troubled.

My grandmother passed away last night. Me and my brothers visited her on Friday and Saturday, so at least we got to say good bye. I'm not sure how I feel. It's odd that she's gone. She's always been there, in the little house down the road close to where I grew up, and I would run to her with the newspaper. I'll miss her.

Plans

2007-04-12T13:46:00Z

I've decided to move and stay with my brother and his wife in June, before spending three months in the US. But what to do in April and May? I've started writing again, so that is fun. Yup.

Sometimes I wake up with a deep, heavy feeling of sadness. I want to be free.

At least my dreams were beautiful.

Patience

2007-04-06T11:58:15Z

It is hard to give myself the time I need to...recover? Not sure what to call it. I feel I have to steer myself onto a new path, one that is closer to my own heart, and that feels right to me. In the past I've been too focused on pleasing people, and do what I think is expected of me. It's terrible to go against my own inner voice, - it hasn't left me very happy.

Change is good, but not easy.

Just consumed 200gr of chocolate. Don't feel so good. Heh.

Yum.

I'm tired. I just want to hug the couch all day, read or watch tv, and eat chocolate. It's nice in a way, and at the same time....it's not. I can't even go for a small walk to the store without feeling completely drained. Meh.

I'm going to the US this summer. Yep! I'm going to visit the boy and go on another retreat, and have fun!

Remedies?

2007-03-26T09:21:42Z

The boy is sick. I haven't told you have I, that he is in Norway? He's been here for three weeks. Right now we're visiting a friend in Oslo, and then he'll fly home on Wednesday. I'll miss him.

But yes, while he was sick I again realized how much I loved making him tea with a little too much honey. I know honey is good for a sore throat, but I wish I knew of more "natural remedies". I'll think I'll look at amazon.co.uk for a book. I wish I could study stuff like that at a school somewhere.

Healing

2007-03-22T15:01:32Z

Sunshine on my window, makes me happy :)

Fruit. Vegetables. Chocolate. Rest. Books. Walks. Dance. Cry. Tea. Cafes. Friends. Cake. Sing. Write. Time. Patience.

All these things I will give to myself. I'm going to embrace myself and heal.

Evening

2007-03-19T21:11:47Z

I always feel more serene in the evenings. Morning and daytime brings with them a lot of negative thoughts and emotions, like anger, fear, sadness. But when evening comes everything slows down, and I feel more in touch with myself, life and everything.

I feel hopeful now. I want to move somewhere new and study something interesting. I don't want to cling to my past that brings me so much sorrow. I don't want to hold up my pain as a shield. I want to live! I want to understand what happened. Why my family died. I want to understand that it happened to me, because right now it feels as though it happened to someone else.

The boy bought me roses. Aww! I've never gotten flowers from anyone until today. I feel loved :)

I also got my beautful new laptop today. My old one died about two weeks ago. Internet is still a problem though.
