if one day...

i remember reading this little poem as an email that someone sent me a few years ago...

and thinking how lovely it was

if one day you feel like crying… call me.

i cannot promise to make you laugh... but i can cry with you
if one day you want to run away... don’t be afraid to call me.

i don’t promise to ask you to stop... but i can run with you.

if one day you don’t want to listen to anybody...

call me and i promise to be very quiet.

that's all

just wanted to share it...

that's the kind of friends i want in my life;

and the kind of friend i want to be

:)

damn roof!

the freaking roof is still leaking

and it's getting old

where is my damn money going i ask?

but... there is sunshine on the horizon...

the handy man from the real estate called last night

and he's coming today!!

:)

let's hope this means no more buckets in the hallway...

i'll keep you posted!

vision boards!!

last night anouck and her amzing friend eisha put on a night for our young women to make "vision boards". i am sure the girlies had heaps of fun (after all - what teenager doesn't have fun making a mess...) with magazines, stickers, glitter (oh the joy of cleaning up glitter... sigh)

so ... how does one make a vision board i hear you ask...?
cut out words and pictures that describe your goals and visions for a period of time (a few months, a year) and get set to create!

i had so much fun watching the girls create theirs that i was itching to give it a go, so danni and i are going to get together and make one soon :)


personal favourite of the night?
goes to chantal...

anouck: and what do the boys represent?
chantal: duh. i like boys
jade: and boys that just happen to be werewolves of course...?
chantal: *shrugs* added bonus

caitlin also had an awesome one with pics of all kinds of things...
that represented other things
ie:
caitlin: feet...? for a journey - duh!
broken chain and lock?? - i'm escaping!!

oh.. caitlin

crystals was also fab - lots of pics of beauty and makeup
hmmmmm like she needs any help there... stunnah!

and aggie - must be mentioned

aggie: the picture of the elephant?
oh - it reminded me of leigh so i thought i'd stick it on there.

haha. interesting

i loved it!...
can't wait to make mine!!

good bye car...

she's gone.

doug just called to let me know that they've collected her

:( *sniff

we had some good times...

maybe someone else will love her someday!

some things never get old...

some movies never get old, regardless of how many thousands of times you've seen them.

enter mean girls for example...


no matter how many times i hear lines such as:

*i want my pink shirt back!!
*yeah but he's my first cousin
*get in loser, we're going shopping
*i can't go out *cough* i'm sick
*boo you whore!
*you go glen coco!
*none for gretchen wieners. bye!
*there's a 30% chance that it's already raining!
*would you like us to assign someone to butter your muffin?

i'll still find them funny!!
and usually begin to laugh in anticipation...
i know it's sad...

but i'm okay with that
:)

dannii's bday part I & II

part I

thursday night was danni's bday outing with lisa and i at the galleria, hans cafe and maccas morley (as you can see we spared absolutely no expense whatsoever to ensure she had a truly unforgettable night!)

the night began with lisa and i collecting danni, blindfolding her and driving her to the galleria, then handing her a list of tasks to complete throughout the night (as well as telling her that she wasn't allowed to go home until it was complete!) - of course completely ridulous things such as:

-tell lisa & jade periodically throughout the night just how awesome they are

-try on the highest heels you can find in betts

-tell at least three shop assistants that... "it's my birthday!!"

-ask for a diet water on the rocks for your dinner beverage and ensure that you ask the waitress if she wants to see your id

-ask for a birthday discount

it was lots of fun and laughter - and a great time had by all

can't wait for the next one!

part II

and last night...

the crew went out to dinner at chatters in morley (best freaking chinese ever...) followed by san churros in subiaco for a chocolate overload!! way too much... try it some time, they are almost as good as the ones in brazil (and i would know!!)

happy birthday danni!!!
