  Safe Shoes Life | (2)

  The sense of security you get after having your winter tires set is amazing. And I was a lucky one when I bought my car at the end of April because the deal included them. Otherwise, I don't know where I would get the money to get them now. But yes, my life's easy like that sometimes. I finally had the safe shoes installed this morning (we're having a very weird weather and it doesn't look like winter, so I was procrastinating). I also went to pay for driver's license and I'm good until 2008. Les routes du Québec m'attendent, ...

  Holiday Meme Memes | (0)

  Let's see if this one makes me be less of a Scrooge. [Seen at Logtar's, who stole it from Candy] 1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Hot chocolate because eggnog may taste good, but it's still raw eggs! Ouach! 2 . Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? Oh, he likes to wrap them in nice paper and beautiful ribbons. 3. Colored lights on tree/house or white? Coloured. I've always liked them better. 4. Do you hang mistletoe? Nope, never done it. I hope I'll get kissed under it this year, though. ;) 5. When do you put your ...

  Spiritual Beings Thoughts | (5)

  "Life is not some kind of test, that if we fail, we will be punished. We are not human creatures who are being punished by an avenging god. We are not trapped in some kind of tragic place out of which we have to earn our way by doing the "right" things. We are Spiritual Beings having a human experience. We are here to learn. We are here to go through this process that is life. We are here to feel these feelings." -- Robert Burney from his book "Joy to You and Me" While in break during class yesterday, I was ...

  Isn’t it ironic? Life, Thoughts | (0)

  I just got back from my lawyer's office. I signed an affidavit and a divorce sentence petition to the court. It feels weird because I'm the defending part (I hate that term, as if I were sued for something bad), and it is me the one who is deciding when things are going to be over for good. I teared up a little when signing those papers, not because I have any feelings left for my ex-husband, but because I think this is a sad ending for something I always considered a beautiful life project. There I was, asking the ...

  I’ve lost a mentor… Life | (2)

  In February 2005, when it was very hard for me to believe in myself, there was someone who trusted me like I had never been trusted before. She gave me a job and the chance to move on in the middle of a storm, she taught me that life is made of struggle, but worth living. My boss, Ofelia, passed away today after two long years of fighting Cancer. I know all the pain she went through, not only because of her disease, but also because things got difficult for her company. I walked with her through that difficult path, ...
