Good luck with the job hunting and the darts! We believe in you.

Awesome entry Jewel. No gray areas with this one and I think anyone who stops by to read, has to relate to it in some way or another.

What a powerful entry! You definitely lay your heart on the line by telling us exactly how you feel. This was very real and I could relate to what you were saying.

Very interesting blog. I was really surprised at the detailing that your blog entries has! You really write well. I don't know why you are taking classes ... LOL.

Well, NYEve is always spent at home, too many drunken nuts on the roads, but since it is our anniversary, we do an early dinner and come home to ring in the NY w/our son and mom.

I love Titantic!

Good luck with New Horizon, fellow student!!!

I love Titanic! And guess what? We're classmates in NA class! Yippee!

Marshall? Marshall, West Virginia?

It sounds like you had a normal New Years. Nothing extravagant. I like that- well, except the Titanic watching...I hate that movie.

Aw, this sounds like fun! I love Christmas. I love the way it makes me feel--all warm and cozy inside. I love the smell of cookies baking while soft Christmas music plays in the background. My folks live many miles away, and it's been almost 20 years since I was able to spend Christmas with them. Enjoy your time with your family, Jewel.

Merry Christmas.

I'm glad you are loving WDC, Jewel. I'm also happy that you feel welcome here. This is a wonderful community of beautiful, caring people who trust and help each other--and it can only get more beautiful now that you're here.
