Today I played tourist and went on the Forks Logging Tour. It was a blast. I took about a million pictures (will post later) and a couple of videos. It was amazing how they just toss whole trees like they are toothpicks. So amazing. Now I'm in Forks. This is where the trilogy of books Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse are based. Starting next week the Forks Chamber of Commerce will be giving tours of town to the locations that are mentioned in the books. It is a great idea. The books have become somewhat of a phenomenon and are being compared to Harry Potter in popularity. At first I scoffed at that idea, but I think they might be right.
I like things like this even though it is work-related. I'll probably go home and nap today and who knows what tomorrow (possibly work.)
Today I am happy. No particular reason but I truly feel that something good is coming my way. (Oh please let it be that job!!!)
I feel stable for the first time in a long time, and even though I don't feel like my happiness is complete I feel at last like I am being who I really am and enjoying the ride.

I think you are amazingly brave! I think it's so terrific that not only are you willing to take this personal journey, but that you are willing to do it in front of the world! I wish you all the luck in your challenge. Your goals are ones that so many of us share. I hope that through the internet community you can find additional support and encouragement.
I know that I'm "just of friend of your folks", but I have known you so in some degree for a long time! I hope you realize that you truly are a gift and a blessing to this world. Keep up the good work. I will enjoy following your progress -- and hopefully be inspired to challenge myself in some way.
:) Thanks Jenny... yeah at first I was going to try and do it privately but it turns out that without accountability and someone to lift me up in the tough times I didn't do so well the first time I tried! So this is the best way... and I don't really think there is a way to fail... it is all in the effort I suppose!
