Noch eine weitere zufällige Post.

Aren't I the confusing one? I think only one of my friends will be able to read the title, without using a translator. I really like German. A lot. I got a tiny little English to German, German to English dictionary at the bookstore the other day, its very helpful, I like it a lot. Speaking of Languages, my mom has started me on Latin. I'm not so sure I like it yet, its interesting and I think today it made some sense.... Why oh why does this always happen to me? Every time I sit down to write a blog post (When I have time!) I can never ever think of something to say. I guess this shall be a very random blog post, because I have lots of random facts/information to share.

Let's start with Black Mint Gum. Yeah. Black Mint Gum. Its good, but the black part of the gum looks weird. Its just sort of weird chewing a black piece of soft mint tasting stuff. Random...

I'm currently working on two short stories for a children's magazine. I'm also edited one of my short stories I had written a few months back. One of the short stories is actually about writing. Maybe I'll post it after I get it all written. I should probably post a chapter or two of my NaNo novel. Though it isn't done yet. Its January, back to writing!

I've started a photography blog. I had one before, but I didn't like it, and it wouldn't let me post pictures because of the template. You can now find my photography blog here. I'm sorry if the template is kind of a mess, I'm working on it soon though!

Well, this isn't as long as I wanted it to be, but it will have to work for right now. I'll try and get on tomorrow and write a real blog post! Oh, by the way, do you like my new template? I still haven't gotten it all set up, but I'm working on it!

God bless!

Music, Boots and Christmas.

I would say the title says it all, but it really doesn't... And besides, you're probably wondering what I meant in the title. I'll start with Family. Even though it is not on the "list". Micah is handing me receipts from my mom's purse, he like's giving things away, but then he wants them back. Anyway... (*cough* he's so cute) Mom, Dad, Joshua and I all spent most of the afternoon playing cards. My grandparents from Michigan taught us a new game called golf. It has nine rounds, so it get's pretty long sometimes. Joshua was being very, errr.. Sarcastic, maybe? But he was making us all laugh. Then Mom and Dad taught Joshua and I a new game, but I forgot what it was called. Its lots of fun though, little confusing. Heh. But thats what we did this afternoon. We had Christmas music playing and a fire crackling in the background. (But I'm warm now).

Now for the Boots part..... I really don't have to blog about this, but decided I would. I got boots yesterday, but I think most of my reader knew that. I like boots.

On my graphics page I put up some new graphics, seasonal, (I'm not done putting up seasonal one's) They'll mostly be the same size. Sooner or later I'll have "pages" of the different sizes, but that is taking a little while to figure out. Usually I can't just sit down at the computer and design, I wish I could, but I can't. Usually when I sit down someone needs me, or the most adorable little face comes and looks at me with a pitiful looks, and he holds out tiny chubby little hands. Oh yeah, I'd much rather have him, then have all the time in the world to design blog stuff. Doodad.

Ah yes. Christmas. I have almost all my Christmas shopping done. Almost all of it. I just need one/two more things, for my mom. Shhhh. In my family, since there is seven of us kids, we draw names, instead of getting gifts for EVERYONE in my family. Though I do usually get something for my mom and dad. This year I got Abi, again. (I got her last year, and the year before). We were going to keep the names we drew a secret, but somehow they always leaked out. So this year we just decided to tell, and not keep a secret. Its easier that way!

Some of my lovely friends gave me some new book suggestions, I've been enjoying some of their suggestion's. Lets see.. There was "Redwall" by Brian Jacques (There is like 22 books in that entire series!) but I'm liking "Castaway's of the Flying Dutchman" better. (By Brian Jacques also) I like reading new books, but its always fun rereading the one's I own and have read before. One book I love reading over and over is "The Princess Bride" by S. Morgenstern a classic tale of "True Love" and high adventure. *Dizzy* I absolutely love that book. The movie isn't all that bad either, but I enjoy the book so much more. Sheesh. Its making me want to read it again, I'll have to reserve it from the library. I would very much recommend it.

This has been a very long random post. Oh, to add another random thing.. Remember the cat Mittens I blogged about? Well she's doing much better. She's eating a lot, and drinking a lot of water, she is now hydrated! (Hurrah!) She's gained half a pound in two days! She laid in the sun all day today, Rachel has been constantly warming a heating pad thingy, and laying the cat on it. The cat adore's it. Rachel is definitely going to be the cats favourite. But Rachel loves cats like crazy, so its not a surprise that she's been toting the cat around and laying in the sun with it. Hehe.

Well. Thats about it. Hopefully you can bear my long rambling post's. "Tis the season for being busy" or "Tis the season for making tons of Candy" December 16th is National chocolate day/candy making day (For my family!) I must be off to a Christmas party now..

Frohe Weihnachten!

A much needed long post.

**runs in from writing** Wew. I just made 35,000. Yeah I'm right where I should be. But I wanted to be farther! I wanted to be at 45,000. **sighs** Oh well. I didn't get to write on the 19th, so that put me behind. **Frowns** But I've caught up, just not as much as I wanted to. Ooh. Now that I sit down to write a much needed long post, I simply can not think of anything to say. Lets see.. Thanksgiving is four days away. My grandparents from Michigan are coming and staying a few days. We get to see them twice a year. Thanksgiving and Easter. What are you doing for Thanksgiving? I'll be writing. As usual. **can't wait until November is over** I made Baklava yesterday. No reason, other than because everyone wanted it. It was yummy, as usual. We haven't eaten NEAR all of it though. When I make it, I make a great big pan of it. **nods** Goodness. I can't think of anything to post. Hm. Oh yes. I'm holding off the photography contest for a little while, just until I get a few more people to enter. So maybe the week after Thanksgiving I will pick the finalists :) I have four MAYBE five people entered. All lovely pictures, but I would like a few more people to enter! This is random and weird. But I have a weird habit of rocking my neck back and forth while writing. I do it quiet often, like right now, I just started to rock my neck. Huh. Oh well. Did I ever post on here that Micah started walking? Well, if I didn't.. Micah's started walking! He's so cute how he toddles around. Though he sure gets into things. I can hardly keep up with him. Like today for instance. I was holding Micah this afternoon, but he wanted down. So I set him down next to dad and went into my room to write. I turned the laptop on, and turned because I heard a noise. Micah was standing right next to my shoulder! HOW he gets around so fast, for walking so slow, I have NO idea. So I took him back out into the living room, and set him on the couch. ( He knows how to get off and on the couch, which is totally adorable). I went back in my room, then decided I needed a drink. I went out into the kitchen, and he was under the table! His little legs must be super fast. Its surprising how a little guy like him can get around SO fast. Anyway. He's so cute. And he's mine. All mine! This isn't near as long as I wanted it to be, but it will have to do. We put the outside Christmas lights out today. ( We being Dad and Joshua, I was the supervisor). Usually we do it after Thanksgiving, but its going to be very cold Thanksgiving weekend. ( The coldest Thanksgiving Oklahoma has had in 15 years O.o)

So Joshua and Dad put them up today. They look loverly. I like them up early anyway. And I think thats it. I designed a LEGO house today. The house has 10 bookshelves. **nods** I love my books. Even if they are just LEGO books. Yep. Thats it.

Oh, another thing. I'm thinking about changing my blog around. ( Don't worry, not the template or anything! I like my template TOO much!)

But thats about it for now. I'm going to head off to bed soon. Guten Nacht!

Blessings in Christ,
