Happy birthday, Mike!!!
Mood:  lyrical
Happy birthday, sweetie! :)

Thank you for mowing our terribly tall grass (it's rained for days) on your birthday and day off. You are the best, and I know I don't tell you that often enough!

Love,
Karen

The meaning of Life
There is a place in every man's heart that only Jesus can fill. You can try to fill it with material things, or anything or anyone that turns your head at that moment, but in the end, when the 'newness' wears off, you will find that void is still there.

But when you give it to Jesus, suddenly everything makes sense, the air is fresher, the birds sing sweeter, and the nasty neighbour suddenly isn't so bad anymore...you have a purpose in life, you have found meaning to life...Jesus Christ himself! Give him a chance!

We are being spoiled!
Mood:  lazy
What beautiful weather we have had here in Ohio the last four days! It has mostly been in the seventies, nice and breezy...just perfect weather. Yesterday, though, it was 84 degrees! That is the normal high in July. It has spoiled us all for summer, I think. I love it! My husband and I have been enjoying our screened-in porch. He likes watching birds, and just bought a bird bath yesterday. He was upset that the birds didn't find it yet. LOL, I saw a big gray squirrel in one of our bird feeders just a little while ago. I think he is feeding the furry little critters around here more than the birds! LOL.

Go Evian!!!
Mood:  on fire
Wow, those spoilers we heard yesterday have me giddy. LOL. While I am a bit leery of the one that says the results of Evian's attempts at satisfying their desires won't be pretty, I am just thrilled that they are attempting something, and that Eve seems to be the one to initiate this. Go Eve!! :) I can't wait for May!!

I really need to go do chores now...but who wants to do laundry and pick up stuff when you can read about Evian? LOL.

Hope Everyone Had a Happy Easter!!
Mood:  happy
There is nothing like going home to visit family for the holidays. I had a blast visiting my family and my husband's on Easter. First we went to my uncle's, which is about an hour and a half away. He treated us to a home-cooked dinner of the all the best dishes, including my favorite - shredded scalloped potatoes. He even baked a cake that his 15-year-old daughter, Emily, decorated. Then we got to enjoy watching my two little nephews, Evan and Aidan, go on their Easter egg hunt. Aidan, who is about to turn 3, recently got glasses, and he looks so adorable in them!

After my uncle's, we went on to my husband's sister's house, where I was immediately pulled out to the trampoline by my 12-year-old niece Rebecca. We had a blast out there, and also at trying to play songs on the piano together. It was the blind leading the blind. LOL. We had fun playing euchre too. There is nothing like getting to spend time with family, especially when you only get to see each other every couple of months!

It's Been a Great Couple of Days!!
Mood:  happy
A few days ago, I found out my grandmother's biopsy came back benign. Last night, my husband surprised me with a bouquet of daisies, and today we found out we are getting a nice refund back on our taxes. This kind of makes up for the things going on at work lately. It has been a tough spring there. I am glad to get some good news for a change.

NHL Playoffs!
Ok, I am not as huge a hockey fan as I used to be. But I enjoy the playoffs, the hockey is a lot more intense.

I love to play the game more than I do watching it. I remember back when I was about 20-21 we would go to the outdoor rink and play for hours..even in -25C. Didn't matter. We loved the game and wanted to play.

I was watching Bugs Bunny and he sang a song..you're next, you're so next. LOL well I am sure if you read this today, you will notice that stupid song is stuck in my head on SD as well. ;) Anyways, hope that lady at your school gets a break Karen.

Man, I am so down!
Mood:  sad
I just found out today that because of budget crunches, our dear custodian and several others are going to lose their jobs at the end of this school year! She is such a nice lady, and she just survived a horrible bout with cancer (she was in stage 4 lymphoma). For her to be OK is a miracle. (She had an experimental bone marrow transplant over a year ago, one that is not as radical as the one typically seen in hospitals). It has appeared to cure her, but of course, she still has a lot of bills to pay. I am so bummed at the system that doesn't think twice about axing this fine lady, one of the nicest, most decent people I know!! :(

Yay!!! I am finally done with graduate school!!
Mood:  special
Woohoo!!! I just mailed in my final portfolio. My days of pulling all-nighters (or near ones) are over. Now I can finally do some of the things I have intended to do for so long, like give my house a thorough cleaning... No, catching up on my Evian tapes is much more fun!! LOL.

Hello Fellow Evian Fans!!
Mood:  smelly
I hope you like the new look to Evian Dreams. I fell in love with that banner the moment I laid eyes on it, and when Bailey changed the main page to deep purple...wow, it was amazing. I think purple and silver rock, Bailey. You are right! I hope the new buttons make loading each page much easier for everyone. I also hope you enjoy the new features this site has to offer. Thank you so much, Neena, for that wonderful supply of videos from Secret Desires. They are awesome!

It looks like the Evian story will be heating up soon; I can't wait!!!

New Layout
Mood:  on fire
I love the new look! It is so much more 'Evian' I think. The purple and silver..lol actually a fluke...I didn't know it was purple...color blind I guess. Anyways that is Court's favorite color and mine is silver. The two go well together, no?

Anyways, I hope to post my thoughts here often, I am not sure if anyone else can start a thread, but I know you all can respond to one.

Have a lovely day! Time for me to get on with my chores.

From Tracey Ross
I just watched your slide shows of Eve and Julian and almost wept. What a beautiful job. I will make sure Ben sees it as well. Thank-you. And thanks to all the Evian fans whose affection for Eve and Julian make our jobs so fulfilling.
