Hello dear ones... I posted here a couple of times today, one of which is the next segment of Leni and Vyktor's story. They'll be here for anyone who wants to catch up with me. Have a wonderful night and pleasant dreams... Sign in to see full entry.
ANOTHER SEGMENT
That first class just wasn’t meant to be. It was the first Tuesday night after the new year holiday, and I couldn’t have been more grateful for the distraction. Since I had an hour or so until class started, I made my way to the library. Judy came dashing up to me as soon as I came in. “Hey,... Sign in to see full entry.
ANOTHER DISMAL DAY
Ugh! What a gloomy day! All dark and rainy and wet! Still, we've needed a decent amount of rain for a long time now, so I'm glad to see it coming down. Mum is coming for coffee sometime this afternoon. Well, I checked out the website for the humanist magazine. The only problem now is that I'm not... Sign in to see full entry.

THIS ONE'S A BUST
It turns out that the website I contacted on behalf of the guild yesterday won't be of any help to them at all. Sigh. Still, it was worth the effort of trying and I'm glad I did. Some sites will be helpful to us and some won't. It's all a part of the job! Sign in to see full entry.
BACK TO THEIR STORY
“Christy?” The voice calls to me and I turn to see the secretary smiling at me from behind her desk. “Elisabeth is ready for you.” I thank her and make my way into the office, where she closes the door behind me. It’s a small room with an oversized window. I like the colours she’s chosen and the... Sign in to see full entry.
DON'T WORRY, MORE TO FOLLOW
I AM LENI PART ONE A DARK PATH CHAPTER ONE It all started on a dark January night about five and a half years ago. When it first started happening, it frightened the living hell out of me. You see, I hadn’t ever heard voices before. More frightening than voices, though, was my first vision of her. I... Sign in to see full entry.
SUCCESS
My luck in finding information for Julie seems to be getting somewhat better. The company I emailed yesterday got back to me, though I'm not sure they'll be of much help to the guild. Margaret even helped me out a bit yesterday and we managed to get hold of a mailing address for the other foundation... Sign in to see full entry.
MAY DAY!

A BIG WIN FOR A LITTLE BEAR
I dedicate this post to my Grandmummy kabu and all her Aussie friends and family. I hope this makes you smile as much as it makes me! I've just read that in certain parts of Australia, koala bears will now be protected. Two of the areas mentioned were New South Wales and Queensland. Hopefully more... Sign in to see full entry.
AS PROMISED...THE RE-POSTINGS WILL CONTINUE
DEAR HUMANITY Dear citizens of the world, I’m writing this letter to you because countless times people have asked me, “What is the meaning of life? What can I do to make the world a better place?” First of all, let me just state here that I AM NOT the one you should be asking these questions. You... Sign in to see full entry.
BACK TO WORK
Well, I gave myself the weekend off from my work for Julie. I got back to it this morning, but at the moment I'm not having much luck finding any of the information she needs! I've just made contact with one of the companies via email, and I'm awaiting their response. As for the foundation she asked... Sign in to see full entry.

A SNAIL'S PACE
That's how I'm moving today. It's Saturday, after all. It's a bright sunny day outside my bedroom window, but it is COLD outside! A real Mary Poppins kind of day...VERY WINDY! The Gestapo still marches forward, I'm afraid. I don' feel well at all today. I took the meds at 8:00, lay down again at... Sign in to see full entry.

THE GESTAPO HAS RETURNED
First of all, thank you to Amanda. And to you also, FSI. Your kind thoughts truly humble me. I am so glad it's Friday! Only two more days, and I'll be off these blasted antibiotics once and for all! I'll be well chuffed to see the end of them, because frankly, they're driving me round the twist. My... Sign in to see full entry.
ROUGH ROAD
Hi everyone... Happy Friday! I will be back to write at some point today, but thus far it has not been a good one for me. I hope you all are well. Sign in to see full entry.

THE BEGINNING OF VYKTOR'S STORY. A RE-POST

MY "EMPLOYMENT" BEGINS
I'm so happy. I will start my research for Julie and The College Guild over the weekend. She gave me two websites to search for corprate contributions help, if they do so at all. I'm so happy to be of help to her if I can be. I just hope I'm able to give her what the guild needs. Wish me luck! Sign in to see full entry.

IN GERMAN, PLEASE!
My Grandmother (on Dad's side) was a quarter German by ancestry. I remember when I was a little girl sometimes she would teach me a few German words. Sadly, I lost practise and couldn't remember a thing! I studied German for a short while, though to be honest, I don't much care for the language. It... Sign in to see full entry.
WHAT HAVE I DONE??!
Oh, dear me! Judging from some of the comments I have received regarding my re-post for Vyktor, I have made some of you very sad! And that, my dear ones, makes me terribly sad! It seems like I'm always doing this to people. I don't know how or why...just that it always seems to be that way for me.... Sign in to see full entry.

FOR VYKTOR THE FIRST VERSION
There is a beautiful little stone house in a forested area of Kiev Ukraine. I know the forest and the rooms of the house by heart. The fireplace and the cast iron stove. The large bed in the front room and the bathroom to the left in a corner. There is a second, smaller bedroom in the back of the... Sign in to see full entry.

A TAIL OF FORGOTTEN HEROES
The girls and I just finished watching WAR HORSE. I had wanted to see it when it opened in our cinema this past Christmas Day, but couldn't get there. I anxiously awaited its DVD release, and I'm so glad I bought it. Once again, Steven Speilberg did an excellent job. Though the film is based on a... Sign in to see full entry.
