What is your DD page?? please send it my way to smileykins@yahoo.com

Hello There!

I want to let you know that it took me a while to figure out DD myself and when I did, I still can not quite figure out which direction I took to get there. i just kept going to pages to pages and went from there. Once you figure it out, you will enjoy your time at DD. Welcome aboard DD. I hope your visit here is a good one as well as a long one. Thanks for the comment at my journal. I appreciate it greatly.

I do have to admit that it is a lazy day today. I have a slight headache this early afternoon. I took an inexpected nap on my couch between 1 & 2 p.m. – finding that I missed half of Pepper Ann which is one of my favorite Disney cartoon program next to Disney’s doug at 1 p.m. I have been busy and now Christmas is over and 2002 is on its way in five days!!! Today is just a lazy day.

Although I was not with my immediate family this Christmas, I did have a fine and enjoyable Christmas on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I am, however, Christmaed out and glad that Christmas is now behind me for another year. I did get what I wanted for the holidays as well as needed – morely needed than wanted really. I had feared that this Christmas was going to be a lonely one but it turned out to be quite the opposite. In fact, I got a Christmas present/gift from God I did not expect. That gift is so hard to explain in words because it deals with my emotional welfare I have dealt with for many years. I can, without going into great depth, I am on the road to recovery from a situation in my life. I am on a very LONG ROAD to recovery. If i find a way to explain it in words, I will write and share my special gift from God another day and that is a big promise!!!!

Hi there!! Thanks, many thanks that is for writing and giving me some encouragement through your kind words. I know i will not be spending the holidays alone exactly and that is a good thng. Yet plans are in the making and I don’t know what is going on for Christmas Day. I know what my plans are for the holiday on Christmas Eve. You, Avalonelf, have a Merry Christmas as well! May God bless you during the holidays. Again thanks for the comments and encouragement my friend. You helped make my day go smoother. You have put a smile on my face because you understand what/how I feel during the Christmas holiday. Many of the people who read my entries here at DD are god people.

I don’t have anything against Christmas whatsoever. Christmas is the given birthday of Christ’s birth – for us to celebrate our Savior

s birth. The only thing is I will not be doing much for Christmas this year – as it looks like an ordinary/everyday sort of day for me. I don’t know what my plans are for Christmas day or Christmas Eve. I do know that I will be seeing the new year come in with a few friends. My family lives all over the United States and I will not be going to visit my aunt this year for the holiday. I am not sitting here feeling sorry for myself or anything. I do have a life beyond the door of my apartment but my immediate family is not as near as I wish I would like them to be. The holidays can be tough – especially during the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas. At least I am not alone – going to be alone.

Thank you for your compliment at my DD spot. I am actually siting here contemplating on getting a bath or shower in now so I can be ready for my day tomorrow. We have something going on at my chrch tomorrow. I am looking forward to that greatly as I do enjoy church activities and programs very much. As for right now at 5:22 p.m., I am listening to some classcal music to relax and get comfortable as it is now dark outdoors here where I live. I love classical music and I don’t know where or exactly when I got to loving this music but it was years ago. I have a former teacher who listens to classical music and I do know I did not learn to like it from her. You have to acquire a taste for some things and classical music is one of them for most people. In fact, get this, I did not care for Frank Sinatra until three years before he died. Now I really like his singing. Blue Eyes was his nickname and he was a part of the Rat Pack I believe with Jerry Lewis, Dean Martin, and others. Now, how long has Frank Sinatra been gone now?

I am feeling better but I am trying not to overdo it because u am si prone to relapse. Talk to you soon!!

Today is Friday and the weekend is now upon me. I just got over a bad head cold and I surely felt miserable. Now with the weekendd upon me, I have a chance to recover completely, see some friends, and relax when I can.

I personally thought that I would be back to writing in my journal days ago but it turned out that I haven’t been writing for a while. Where am I? I have been very very busy and finding little time to write anything lately…even e-mails to certain people. Will time slow down? Probably not because after January 14, 2002, I will be even more busy – buring my nose in the textbooks in a clasroom, studying, and working hard on doing well so I can be an account in the future. Even though I haven’t been here for a while, I am not forgetting my friends here at DD.

It has been a while since I’ve written at DD because I have been very busy since I have been back from my vacation during Thanksgiving. I haven’t forgotten to write anything…just been very busy, and after January 14th, my life will be very busy. Also I have a new toy to play with and get used to while I have the chance. Let me put it this way, I love my new toy, but have very little time to really explore. Go figure…and I have always found a few minutes here and there to play. I think I am back now…who knows.
