Sometimes if I’m not sure what to write about I look for images online and they give me inspiration. But today, it was one of my own from our trip down south.
Summer used to be one of my least favourite seasons. I used to hate the heat, I couldn’t tan and I would wear jeans all summer. Well, since November ’04 I’ve loved it more and more, since my trip to the Dominican really. I started going to the tanning bed, and for the first time in my life I actually had a great tan! Since then I have been tanning much better and even wear shorts all the time now!!

Carter and I got out for a walk and went to the playground for a bit. I think we were gone for about 2 hours. It was nice, nice to get out, nice to not care.. just play in the playground with him. He liked it a lot and is now fast asleep.

Things are changing at “that place” more then ever before, I am suspicious and untrusting at the moment. I feel as though I am not safe online anywhere to express myself or my feelings.
I have in my mind that I am done there. I don’t really have the same enjoyment for it anymore, but there are people there still that keep me hanging on. There are people that I just don’t want to lose.
But since exploring our from “that place” there are some friendships I have made there that are progressing and blossoming and I love it!

It’s hot again. It rained all weekend when it called for clear and sunny. I swear, a meterologist is the only job you can have where you’re wrong 99% of the time and still be employed.

I did a pile of laundry today. I love washing clothes; I just hate folding and putting them away. I think I detest putting them away the most though.

Is “that place” the place I’m thinking of? If so,I TOTALLY understand where you’re coming from!
That was interesting. A good read.
I am “done” at that place ~ cold turkey baby ~I am my own boss now. I LOVE it. I do miss some people….but I don’t miss the place anymore. i would if I didn’t have you all here though. Thank goodness a few of whom I missed have started on myspace. All you have to do is convert your buddies over LOL!!!!! *start with MARE over there*
I love your picture. I thought it was an image to the footsteps poem. One of my favourites. I’ve been to dominican as well many many years ago. Nice place. BOCA CHICA resort I remember it well.
I am glad you are finding enjoyment with Carter in your last few weeks of mat leave and more time away from the ‘puter.
We love you Sam! Be strong.
Yeah, Mare Bare it is. Sadly enough. It just doesn’t do it for me anymore.
You’re on of the people keeping me there though, *mmwuha*!
I’m slowly easing myself out of it every day less and less time there, and fewer and fewer posts.
Just doesn’t have the same atmosphere as it once did.
I don’t feel that anyone cares about anything I have to say. You have to be going through something terrible in your life, having a baby, losing a baby or something to be noticed. It don’t like that at all.
I haven’t really converted to myspace yet because I have dial up at home (I can’t get DSL in my area.) Myspace is soooooo slow when you have dial up.
I keep lurking over at “that place,” but haven’t posted. I just can’t relate to most of those people anymore.
Would you mind sending Tina my email address?
I would love mare’s email and I understand about dial up…I had it a few years ago until tony was told he could work form home…then he needed a good fast speed internet provider. I benefitted LOL
Sam I really do like hearing about your life.
Well Sam, I am glad you got out and enjoyed your day, so important when you realize that the time is passing!
I too just do not feel the same about “that” place. I am trying hard, but cannot realte to anyone anymore–too many new people, allpregnant and ttc, not my life or thing for a longtime now…the one person I really did relate too just up and disappeared **we won’t mention names though**
I too feel very ignored–for lack of a better word. And to be honest, having been there three years or longer…it’s the same posts over and over lately and that leaves no motivation to respond. Tina added vitality to the boards with new ideas and subjects, but beyond that I really had little to look forward to post in. I have been collecting a few personal email addresses though…I have no idea what my intentions are in regards to “that place” but I also find myself posting less and less…and not intentionally.
And for the record, I love your graphics here!!! How do you do that. I want to add a few images to mine just to keep it interesting:-)And hey……..I saw my blog noted in your link section! Thanks!!!
