Puke, Exhaustion, & Garth...

went to wal mart
got some art stuff
gonna make belated Crimmus gifts.
Bella is sikk today
throwing up
yukky.
i had to call out for her at work
and go get her sprite & gatorade
gave her some chicken noodle soup
and sent her onto bed.
my own shoulders are killing me,
i am not in the best of moods.
i am exhausted
but i dunno why.
anyways,
we listened to some more of the new Garth...
here's my lyrics fer today.

I'll Be The Wind

You let him lock you away in his prison of sadness
It's up to you to decide where tomorrow will lead
If it's time to be leaving your burdens behind
I could be just what you need

I'll be the wind
I'll be the highway
I'll be your midnight friend
And we'll fly away
When you come across the courage
To spread your wings again
I'll be the wind

I can't imagine the gypsy you were before him
Carefree and wild a spirited child of the road
Lately girl you've been wearing the weight of the world
And I'd like to lighten your load

I'll be the wind
I'll be the highway
I'll be your midnight friend
And we'll fly away
When you come across the courage
To spread your wings again
I'll be the wind

If it's time to be leaving your burdens behind
I could be just what you need

I'll be the wind
I'll be the highway
I'll be your midnight friend
And we'll fly away
When you come across the courage
To spread your wings again
I'll be the wind

It All Comes Down To A Fart

ok so i am back home now
i am gonna go in detail ab my trip home...
* sigh *
here goes...
it was GREAT being there...
the thing at Mary Barr's
kinda, i dunno...
i told Cheryl i was glad June was there with me.
I told Cheryl if June could overcome her situation
and go & actually visit her Dad,
then i could be the bigger person
and leave a damn voice mail for my sperm donor.
i have mixed emotions about that.
i was put in that situation that I didn't like
instead of freaking out,
and going off on the Old Hag,
i just did it.
kinda over came a lil bit of fear in a way,
ya know?
its over & done with,
just like a fart...
its come & gone,
left a lil stench...
a bit of air freshner & we'll all be okay...
it all comes down to a fart, doesn't it?
anyways, when i got back home....
Cheryl's Mom gave me my thermal Tink blanket
and on the bottom it says BELiEVE,
Her sister gave me a Tink pocketbook
( that now makes 3 total ),
Cheryl gave me:
A Star Wars III poster thingy to go on my wall,
A poster from Posters.com of van Gogh's Starry Night,
The stuff for my SNES
( that doesn't work, btw, DAMNIT ),
& then there's still the 1 mystery gift
that's yet to arrive for me.
i did laundry all day today, LoL...
back to my life...
i missed my lil Shithead,
my shadow,
felt wierd to not have him up my ass....
my Bella...
i missed her too.
today (12 - 29 -05 ) is our 9 month anniversary!!
( WooHoo, Baby!! I LOVE YOU, BELLA!! )
i jammed to a Garth Brooks CD tonight...
I gave Bella the new Box Set Edition only found at Wal - Mart
i listened to my FAVORITE song on the Scarecrow CD...
the purple is pretty...
so soothing....

When You Come Back To Me Again

There's a ship out
On the ocean
At the mercy of the sea
It's been tossed about
Lost and broken
Wandering aimlessly
And God somehow
You know that ship is me
'Cause there's a lighthouse
In the harbour
Shining faithfully
Pouring its light out
Across the water
For this sinking soul to see
That someone out there
Still believes in me
On a prayer, in a song
I hear your voice and
It keeps me hanging on
Raining down
Against the wind
I'm reaching out till
We reach the circle's end
When you come
Back to me again
There's a moment
We all come to
In our own time and
Our own space
Where all that we've done
We can undo
If our heart's
In the right place
On a prayer, in a song
I hear your voice and
It keeps me hanging on
Raining down
Against the wind
I'm reaching out till
We reach the circle's end
When you come
Back to me again
And again I see
My yesterday's in front of me
Unfolding like a mystery
You're changing all that is
And used to be
On a prayer, in a song
I hear your voice and
It keeps me hanging on
Raining down
Against the wind
I'm reaching out till
We reach the circle's end
When you come
Back to me again
When you come
Back to me again

Fo' DAMN Sho!!

Crimmus was WONDERFUL!!!
Auntie Boo didn't join us

Merry Crimmus, everybody.

Saw this in Ro's journal 2nite...

"Why? Because I believe I will. If you believe, then you hang on. If you believe, it means you’ve got imagination, you don’t need stuff thrown out for you in a blueprint, you don’t face facts-what can stop you?"

De Ebonics Crimmus Pome

Wuz de nite befo Crimmus
An' all ower da hood,
Ereybody wuz sleepin',
Dey wuz sleepin' so good.
We hunged up our stockings
An' hoped like de heck

All o'de fambily
Wuz layin' in dey beds
Whilst Ripple an' Thunderbird
Danced thew dey heads.
I passed out inna flo'
Right nex to my maw.
When I heard sech a fuss,
I thunk, "It muss be de law!!"
I looked out thew de bars
What covered my do
''Spectin' de sheriff
Wif a warrant fo' sho'.
An' what did I see?
I said, "Lawd, look at dat!
"Der' wuz a huge watermelon
Pulled by giant warf rats!
Now, ober all de years,
Sanny Claus, he be white,
But looks liken us bros
Gets a black Sanna dis nite.
Faster dan a po'lees car
My home boy he came.
He whupped on dem warf rats
An' called dem by name.
"On Leroy, on 'Lonzo,
An' on Willie Lee!
On Saphire, on Chenequa!"
Dey was a site to see!
As he landed dat watta' melon
Out der in da skreet,
I knowed it wuz fo' sho'
Da damndest site I ebber did see.
He didn't go down no chimbley;
He picked da lock on my do',
An' I sez to myself,
"Sh**!! He done dis befo'!!"
He had dis big bag
Fulla prezents I 'spect,
Wid Air Jordons and fake gold
To wear roun' my neck.
But he left no good prezents,
Jus started stealin' my sh**.
Got my drugs,

Even got my burglar's kit!!
Wit my stuff in de bag,
Out de winda he flewed.
I woudda' tried to catched him,
But he stole my 'nife too!
He jumped on dat wadda' melon
An' whipped out a switch.
He wuz gone in a seccon
'Dat son of a b****!
Next year I be hopin'
Anutha Sanna we git
Cuz diz here Sanny Claus
Jus' ain't werf a sh**!!

Normal Couple Stuff, REBA, Auras, Chakras, Etc.

well let's see...
sunday Cheryl & I went to her annual
family reunion / Crimmus party.
talk about nerve racking!!
i mean,
i've met most of everybody who was there,
but i don't really know them.
plus them being her family,
i wanted to make a good impression.
monday Bella and I invitied my in - laws over for supper.
tuesday, we ate at their house for supper.
today, we went grocery shopping
and finished our Crimmus shopping.
my Bella works day shift tomorrow.
but it'll be a busy day indeed for me too.
i'll be durrin laundry, cleaning house,
wrapping presents, and packing up to go home on Friday.
Not to mention, having supper ready when she gets home
at oh......8- 8:30ish p.m.
i'm excited about going home.
but am a lil anxious about it too.
i hope & pray to the Goddess that it is all smooth sailing
and without any drama.
but seeing everybody will put a smile on my face,
and not just because i have a gas bubble building up.
in the midst of our shopping today,
i JAMMED to my girl, Reba.
* ALL HAIL THE GODDESS, REBA *
i listened to " The Heart Won't Lie "
like a million times.
( Okay, just 3 or 4. )
" And Still "
" I'm A Survivor "
" Whoever's In New England "
ALL pumped through our car's stereo system today.
i'mma tell yall,
listenin to Reba,
dang,
that just heals my soul right there.
Been readin up on Auras & Chakras...
VERY VERY fascinating.
Makes A LOT of sense.
I'll do more research and see where fate guide my spiritual side.
Today I used an Aura Cleansing method
to help calm down and de-stress my Bella.
and wha-doo-yah know!!
IT WORKED!!
HOT DAMN!!
the Purple was calm, shiny, and PWETTY today!!
i'll leave yall with the lyrics to one of my mostest favorite Reba songs...
but for now,
peace out, yall!!

Performed By: Reba McEntire & Vince Gill

Looking back over the years
Of All the things I've always meant to say
But words didn't come easily
So many times through empty fears
Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone
So scared of who might be answering
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away

'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
The heart won't lie

Long after tonight
Will you still hear my voice through the radio
Old desires make us act carelessly
Long after tonight, after the fire
After the scattered ashes fly
Through the four winds blown and gone
Will you come back to me?
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away

'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
The heart won't lie

The heart won't lie

It Ain't Dun Yet

spent 4 hours
working on my soul's self portrait.
the death of starlight,
the monster & creator of my fears,
both lie at the bottom within gray clouds.
then the rainbow,
with my boys, my grandma, cheryl, liz,
my girl scout symbol,
my golden girls,
& the sun, at the top,
to represent my Nana.
my painting is a story of change,
my metamorphisis.
from where i was,
to where i am.
yet, i am finding that it isn't complete.
cheryl pointed that symbolism out to me.
i cannot figure out what is missing.
hmmm...
something to ponder
while takin a dook on the pooper.

Gone To Carolina In My Mind

Carolina In My Mind Lyrics
In my mind
I'm going to Carolina.
Can't you see the sunshine,
can't you just feel the moonshine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind.
Karen she's the silver sun,
you best walk her way and watch it shine,
watch her watch the morning come.
A silver tear appearing now I'm crying, ain't I?
I'm going to Carolina in my mind.
There ain't no doubt in no ones mind
that loves the finest thing around,
whisper something soft and kind.
And hey, babe, the sky's on fire,
I'm dying, ain't I?
I'm going to Carolina in my mind.
In my mind I'm going to Carolina.
Can't you see the sunshine,
can't you just feel the moonshine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind.
Dark and silent late last night,
I think I might have heard the highway calling.
Geese in flight and dogs that bite.
And signs that might be omens say
I'm going, going, going to Carolina in my mind.
With a holy host of others standing round me,
still I'm on the dark side of the moon.
And it seems like it goes on like this forever,
you must forgive me
if I'm up and in my mind I'm going to Carolina,
can't you see the sunshine can't you just feel the moonshine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind.
In my mind I'm going to Carolina.
Can't you see the sunshine, can't you just feel the moonshine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm going to Carolina in my mind.
Gotta make it back home again soon,
gotta make it back on home again soon,
gotta make it back to Carolina soon,
can't hang around,
no babe,
gotta make it back home again,
gotta make it back to Carolina soon...

Looking Into The Mirror

okie dokies.
so last night,
my Bella LAID the SMACKDOWN on me.
OMFG!!
i slept ALL DAY today.
hmmm... moving on.
tonight i watched this show on TLC entitled
" The Boy Whose Skin Fell Off "
i HIGHLY reccomend yall watch it if you see it on.
it'll DEFINATELY put things into perspective for yall.
it made me feel as if my disability,...
was nothing more than a different color jacket.
nothing note worthy.
why?
because it is what is on the inside that makes us who we are.
and this program,
validated my belief.
it made me realize that anyone can make an impact.
all you have to do is:
dare to dream and believe it.
that's one of my resolutions for 2006.
to dream, believe, and see.
because after all, what is it that they tell the children?
seeing isn't believing, believing is seeing.
i'll believe in myself, my love, who i am, my family, my friends,
my Bella, my life, my heart & soul.
2006 will be a great year for me,
i can feel it.
adversities and strife no doubt,
will try to become obstacles to block the progression of my journey.
i will kick and scream to let out my frustrations,
but it is then and only then will i defeat the hurdles set before me.
in my past, i have confided to my closest friends that one of my goals in life
is to make an impact on somebody's life
in the manner that my Nana made an impact on my own life.
but i think that instead, maybe in 2006 i will get a bit selfish.
perhaps i'll do my damnedest to make that impact on MY OWN life...
and in doing that,
i believe i can accomplish the Herculean task of making an impact on someone else's life.
because if i better myself
by believing in myself, trusting myself,
having more faith myself, and even beginning to love myself...
then i know i will be in a better position to give more to the people in my life.
i can see it now,
the purple rays of light
poking out from behind the cloud of my past.
my future is looking bright.

She Brought Down The Champ

Okay so let's see
My Bella called out Saturday night
She felt sick & still doesn't feel well
I cooked her my Brown Rice & Porkchops
Afterwards, we played Uno, The Family Guy Edition
She won 3 outta 5 games,...
DAMNIT.
She BEAT ME!!
ACHK!!
I'M THE UNDISPUTABLE UNO CHAMP OF THE WORLD!!
( Well on Jackson Avenue, at least. )
Sunday we went to the In-Laws for Lunch
Yummy
Yesterday & today my Bella still doesn't feel well.
I'm tryin to give her lot-o-luvin and sweet kisses to help her feel better...
I did my 4th canvas acrylic painting...
I think it blows a monsterous fart,
Cheryl likes it.
Its the Ocean at night, with the moon's reflection on the water.
I've got to write out our Crimmus cards today.
Maybe I'll paint today too.
Who knows what the day may bring!

Misery, Love, Tink, Sarah, & Neverland

* FiRST OF ALL, MY BELLA & I MADE IT PAST OUR 8 MONTH ANNiVERSARY ( WHiCH WAS 11.29.05 ), i FORGOT TO WRiTE iT iN MY JOURNAL, i'M SORRY BELLA, i LOVE YOU WiTH ALL MY HEART & SOUL, YOU'RE MY MUSE, MY ANGEL, i LOVE YOU *
So I was thinking,
If Thanksgiving is any indication/inclination of Crimmus,
Then yall say a prayer for me to your Higher Power.
Grant me the patience of a Nun in prison.
What is it they say,
Misery loves company?
I was thinking bout the ppl I know who are miserable,
Starlight, my sperm donor, an Aunt, and a few others I know.
It has taken me until just now to understand
That it is THEM with the problem,
NOT me.
These ppl,
They lash out at EVERYBODY in their lives.
ESPECIALLY ppl they love and ppl that care about them.
I.E. - Starlight. I carried guilt around for a long time because of her.
Guilt because I didn’t love her enough, the right way, too much, or true enough.
Guilt because maybe I hurt her.
Guilt because maybe I gave up on her.
Guilt because I couldn’t save her from herself.
The girl I met in the bar that first night,
The girl I once adored,
I’ll forever have a place in my heart for her.
But the monstroncity, the metal faced, self destructive emotional vampress
she has become,
It is not my fault.
No doubt,
I said some things and did some things
That weren’t so nice.
But not enough for her demise.
Until she wants the help,
She will continue to lead the life she is leading.
She can say many things about me.
I am horrible, I did this, I said this, yada, yada, yada…
But what she cannot say is that I did not love her.
Because I did,
I did love her.
To a fault, through and through.
I ignored all the destruction, the drama, everything.
Why?
Because I loved her.
I loved her without boundaries.
And I think that is what life is about,
Because in the end,
That is what we are all left with.
I am Sarah. I have a wonderful future Wife, a kinda psychotic, bat boy / Yoda / Flying Nun Shithead for a dog. I love my twins, my Grandma ( I love being her favorite grandchild too, I know that’s arrogant but oh well its my flaw, not yours so get over it ), Reba, Rosie, Angelina, writing in my journal ( that btw, I rarely spell check, but will make a conscious effort about doing so, LoL ), I love my Golden Girls, my friends, my memories, my Nana, I can be sweet as molasses, Bitchy as anything, Ditsy, Witty, Smartass, Corny, I have my ups, I have my downs, I love my fairies, I write my Bella love letters, I make her laugh until she cries, I think Bug Zappers are the ultimate entertainment (does anyone agree with me here?! ), I think and say the things no one else has the balls to. I love a challenge, I grew up but still have some to do…therein is the irony, Femmes and Butchies…I searched for my Neverland for so long, I ran into dead ends, broken hearts, broken roads, but…when Tink grew up,…Sarah found her Neverland. I have found me, my happiness, my life.


Btw, I just ordered Heartguard Plus for Harley, so tyvm.

Me, Buddah...You, Sukk

harley is dewormed.
almost got a 6 week old yellow lab.
he was SO cute!!
being fostered by a blonde chickadee,
abandoned at SPCA at a too young age.
he had these adorable crooked eyes.
he was so cute & funny.
guess it isn't meant to be;
the universe has its own way
of showing you your path to take.
hissy fits,
disapointment,
and slight anger,
melt way and succomb
to fate and destiny.
what is meant to be will be.
others we cannot change;
only from within
can any change be made.
rub my belly;
clear purple i see,
Buddah
i am tonight.
