The holiday season is around the corner.  Time to think about gifts. 

This web site butcherblockbistro.com has gifts to fit most budgets. 

After seeing Matthew McConaughey cooking up a storm in his kitchen with a butcher block island in "Failure to Launch," I am growing slightly obessed with that. 

I am sure butcher block *whatever* is going to be the BIG thing in kitchen decor. :)

 

 

 

 

It has been quite a while away.  Life has been changing. I had planned to go straight, but managed to steer away and did a little detour.  I don't know where this will lead.  Perhaps I will be kicking myself when all this done.  But I figured, life strong alone or life with someone I love even though he may not want what I want, I chose the latter.

 

I am slowly making my way/ my move to the good Natural State.  It will be a small little town, but there is beauty in every place.  At least, I live somewhere far from people.  I look out of my window, I see land and more land. No other houses next or in front of me. Just a big piece of land. Sometimes, the dogs run around. Sometimes I see deer - a family of three, in fact. At night, the stars are bright.  You hear nothing but crickets, and sometimes, you hear Buttercup, Zoya, Whitey, or  Scraggly bark.  Perfect. 

 

Life isn't like the big city.  Some think I should explore the outside world.  But, when he is there, my heart is quite complete.  I am not lost, alone, or fearful of what's coming.  I have said it before, it is like "I am home."
