Stephen Marley-You're Gonna Leave



Which way from here
I'm caught up in the pages of my mind
And it's not so clear
But it seems the hurt is way too much this time
Cause I see a vaine look in your eyes
Tell me, do you see the same, same look in mine
Sandpapper kisses, papercut bliss
Don't know what this is, but it all leads to this
You're gonna leave, her
You have deceived, her
Ooh just a girl

Now here I go again
She said I'll break her heart again
She plays the fool again
She said I'll break the rules again
Though I disagree
She thinks she knows me more than me
It's so hard to see
What this voice keeps telling me

Ooh just a girl with featherweight curls
To expose all she knows you play like tease
Just a Girl with featherweight curls
To expose all she knows you play like tease
You're gonna leave, her
You have decieved, her
Ooh just a girl

Outcome of the Transformer Cake

As always I am in a panic when I am making a cake for anyone. This time was no different. I worry about every little detail and I get so many hives over stressing out while doing the cakes.

The party was today and everyone loved it and no one wanted to cut it! That is great and bad at the same time.

I mean great that they loved it but bad because I want them to eat it, clearly. But as always I made to many cupcakes. So, the cake will wait to be cut for another day!

Happy Birthday, Landon! Love Milky

Chili Lesson


I am teaching my sister how to make a meatless chili with the slow cooker, today. 101 - the chili! Should be interesting. This baby girl needs to learn how to cook for herself more healthy foods.

Skyfall 2

I went with my sister in law and my sister to see Skyfall and it was good. Good story line and it left things opened for more Bond movies. I always liked the bond movies so I am glad they are still making them.

Skyfall - Tonight

My sister in law, my sister and I are going to see Skyfall tonight. I think it is great just to get out of the house for a couple of hours. I heard that it was good so I hope it is but honestly just getting out is great!

Doctor's...

...this morning. Went badly as always. The bone that is broken under my shoulder blade got worse. Which is my own fault because I am still working. But if I do not get this done he is going to keep yelling at me. It does not matter how much I have gotten done or how fast. To him it should have been done the day after we moved.???

I have to keep quite and not talk back. To be honest I am not allowed to talk at all on his day off unless it is to answer his questions and even then I have to be careful with my words.

I am so sick of the beatings.

My Office

Another room finally done, thank goodness. I have a place to work, a place in the family room to be alone and it is comfortable. Now, my bedroom needs to be finished and the basement. The kitchen is half done and it will be great to have all these rooms done once and for all.

Media Room

Yesterday my sister and I put together a pretty big media centre unit together. It took us about an hour and it was done before he came home. thank goodness because if he had to put it together it would have been a nightmare. He is not a fixer or handyman by any means. 

It is pretty bad when I am being yelled at for things I have no control over like getting the television remote changed over to the bell remote so that we only need to use one. I am not a loud to talk when he is here. (God forbid you read the manual????!!!!!! Oh, happy fcuking joy!

Marry Me - Train

Marry Me"

Forever can never be long enough for me
To feel like I've had long enough with you
Forget the world now we won't let them see
But there's one thing left to do

Now that the weight has lifted
Love has surely shifted my way
Marry Me
Today and every day
Marry Me
If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe
Say you will
Mm-hmm
Say you will
Mm-hmm

Together can never be close enough for me
Feel like I am close enough to you
You wear white and I'll wear out the words I love you
And you're beautiful
Now that the wait is over
And love and has finally shown her my way
Marry me
Today and every day
Marry me
If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe
Say you will
Mm-hmm
Say you will
Mm-hmm

Promise me
You'll always be
Happy by my side
I promise to
Sing to you
When all the music dies

And marry me
Today and everyday
Marry me
If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe
Say you will
Mm-hmm
Say you will
Marry me
Mm-hmm

I'm yours - The Script

"I'm Yours"

You touch these tired eyes of mine
And map my face out line by line
And somehow growing old feels fine
I listen close for I'm not smart
You wrap your thoughts in works of art
And they're hanging on the walls of my heart

I may not have the softest touch
I may not say the words as such
And though I may not look like much
I'm yours
And though my edges may be rough
I never feel I'm quite enough
It may not seem like very much
But I'm yours

You healed these scars over time
Embraced my soul
You loved my mind
You're the only angel in my life
The day news came my best friend died
My knees went week and you saw me cry
Say I'm still the soldier in your eyes

I may not have the softest touch
I may not say the words as such
And though I may not look like much
I'm yours
And though my edges may be rough
I never feel I'm quite enough
It may not seem like very much
But I'm yours

I may not have the softest touch
I may not say the words as such
I know I don't fit in that much
But I'm yours

It is hard to believe but I am starting to see a dining room forming. The family room is done done done, thank goodness. It looks good not to see any more boxes in that room. I cannot wait until it is all done and I can start focusing just on the business.

So many things I wish I knew but never will.

P.s. I Love You - Still Here

I still have one voice message from you and cannot bring myself to let it go. I save it every month and listen to it every night. After all this time I cannot believe that I still have it. It is the only piece of you that is still real and it holds me together.

Not Connected

There are moments in my life that I shut down more so then what most have seen. My mind turns off and I go numb. At this moment that is the place that I am in. I feel hopeless, confused and not connected to everything or anyone. I guess that is because I am always alone. I am not sure how I am suppose to be or perhaps, I just no longer know who I am. 

My heart aches with pain and loss. the hole inside grows bigger each passing day. Each day when I wake up I wonder if this will be the day that I can forget you - but it never is. You haunt me, even now after all this time. I think of you and how things were. There is such much I would have changed but at the same time there is so much that I do not know how to let go of it.

Some days, are harder then others and some days are worse then the bad days. I hope that you have found peace and that - I do not know.

Find light in the beautiful sea
I choose to be happy
You and I, you and I
We’re like diamonds in the sky

You’re a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy

We’re like diamonds in the sky

I knew that we’d become one right away
Oh, right away
At first sight I felt the energy of sun rays
I saw the life inside your eyes

So shine bright tonight, you and I
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky
Eye to eye, so alive
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shining bright like a diamond
We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond
Shine bright like a diamond
Shining bright like a diamond

Palms rise to the universe
As we moonshine and molly
Feel the warmth, we’ll never die
We’re like diamonds in the sky

You’re a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I’m alive
We’re like diamonds in the sky

At first sight I felt the energy of sun rays
I saw the life inside your eyes

Adele - Skyfall

"Skyfall"

This is the end
Hold your breath and count to ten
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again

For this is the end
I’ve drowned and dreamt this moment
So overdue I owe them
Swept away, I’m stolen

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall
At skyfall

Skyfall is where we start
A thousand miles and poles apart
Where worlds collide and days are dark
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you’ll never have my heart

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall

[2x]
(Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall)

Where you go I go
What you see I see
I know I’d never be me
Without the security
Of your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we’ll stand

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together

Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall

Let the sky fall
We will stand tall
At skyfall

Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight

"Wonderful Tonight"

It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

This House...

...my gosh it has issues! There is something wrong with the water. One being it is well water! And it will take time to get use to that! My body is not adapting well to it at all, which explains why I became very ill so damn fast.

My skin is so sensitive and the water is killing. We are getting a purifier and I hope that will workout the issues.

The heating here works but a little to well and the house is insanely dry. I for the most part keep the heat off but you would never know it, as this house seems to keep heating itself????

There is a room in the basement were the water well is kept - OMG! It is spooky as hell and I think the girl from the RING! is coming for me! 

Folks - let's remember that I am alone in the spooky house for 16 hours a day, every damn day.

My dogs are scared! TOO!

Milky

Unpacking...

...is still going on! It is going to take some time for me to be settled in with all the medical issues I am having.

The flu? The broken bone in my back from the falls down the stairs. I still cannot believe that I broke a bone from that but I guess that is just like me! It sucks. Not sleeping due to pain sucks, too.

Just saying...

I have done a lot but there is much to do and I will not live like this, in boxes. Even if we are going to move sooner then later.

Sucks to be me,

Death Dinner?

Italian Sausages, Rapini and Wild Rice for dinner. It was good, except for the fact that the sausages had caraweed in it and just about killed me! Can you say epi-pen? It did not list that as an ingredient, so boo to them! Just my luck!

The Last 4 days

...have been both a nightmare and interesting.

The Nightmare;

for some odd reason I became very ill so much so that I could not stop vomiting, had a high fever and everything hurt really bad. It is Sunday now and I am just starting to feel better but not by much. My body is so weak. It is not easy trying to get around with no one home to help through times like this. Having to take care of myself and two dogs, let's just say that this weekend nearly killed me.

The Interesting;

the baby time show was this weekend and Dear-Born Baby promoted The Loaded CupCakes to my surprise. Over a thousand people have our business in there home, now. Crazy. I made over 300 cupcakes and it clearly was not enough - me so sad about that! But grateful for the promoting part.

My body...

...is in so much pain. Last Thursday I fell down the stairs not once but twice. I killed my back and my ribs. There is something seriously wrong with me. I have been having lows and crushing down to the point my body shakes uncontrollably. I have lesson the insulin in take but something is causing me to keep crushing. Leave it to me to have accidents that leave me broken and beaten. My back looks like someone is beating me, again.

Oh joy. Milky

Macaron's

A macaron (French pronunciation: [makaˈʁɔ̃][1] is a sweet meringue-based confectionery made with egg whites, icing sugar, granulated sugar, almond powder or ground almond, and food colouring.[2] The macaron is commonly filled with ganache, buttercream or jam filling sandwiched between two cookies. Its name is derived from the Italian word maccarone or maccherone.

The confectionery is characterised by its smooth, squared top, ruffled circumference (referred to as the "foot"), and flat base. It is mildly moist and easily melts in the mouth.[3]
Macarons can be found in a wide variety of flavors that range from the traditional (raspberry, chocolate) to the new (foie gras, matcha).[4] The fillings can range from jams to ganache to butter. Since the English word macaroon can also refer to the coconut macaroon, many have adopted the French spelling of macaron to distinguish the two items in the English language. However, this has caused confusion over the correct spelling. Some recipes exclude the use of macaroon to refer to this French confection while others think that they are synonymous.

Hazelnut-Mocha Macaroons
Ingrediants
  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 4 ounces peeled and toasted hazelnuts (about 3/4 cup)
  • 3 tablespoons Dutch processed cocoa powder
  • 3 large egg whites, at room temperature
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine salt

Mocha Filling:

  • 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder

Directions


  1. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Grind 1 cup of the confectioners' sugar, the hazelnuts, and cocoa in a food processor until powdery, about 3 minutes. Sift mixture through a medium mesh strainer onto a piece of parchment paper, then discard any large pieces of nuts that didn't come through the strainer.
  3. With an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and salt until they hold firm but not dry peaks, about 2 minutes. Gradually add the remaining 1 cup confectioners' sugar, a tablespoon at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed; this can take up to 3 minutes. Beat for an extra 30 seconds until the peaks are firm and shiny but still not dry. Fold the nut mixture gently into the egg whites with a large rubber spatula. Transfer mixture into a large piping bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain piping tip. Pipe 32 2-inch by about 1/3-inch thick rounds, evenly spaced, on each of the prepared pans. Set aside to air dry for 30 minutes before baking.
  4. Meanwhile make the filling: Put chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, bring cream, with espresso powder mixed in, to a boil. Pour cream over chocolate and shake bowl gently so cream settles around the chocolate. Set mixture aside until the chocolate is soft, about 5 minutes. Whisk gently until smooth, taking care not to incorporate too many air bubbles. Cool at room temperature until set up.
  5. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  6. Bake macaroons until set and puffed, about 18 to 20 minutes. Take care not to overcook the macaroons or they'll crack. Cool cookies for 5 minutes then gently peel from paper. Let cool completely.
  7. Spread 1 teaspoon of mocha filling on a cookie and sandwich 2 cookies together.

Dealing with Bell, Rogers and Handymen

OMFG! These companies are so crazy! They do not know what they are doing. Bell telephone service is a pain. I have had no Telephone service all week and they did not change the home address or telephone number.Bell television was also not working, it was only giving me 50 channels in English and 100 channels in French??? WOW!

Rogers wants to charge me another month on top on the extra month we are not using their services??? WTF? I did not want to cut them off but they do not service the area we are in now. How is that my fault? I told them that they are nuts and are thieves. She then credited me. Ah-you think?

I have been on the telephone for two days sorting though these service issues because the person who was responsible for that does not know what they are doing.

There are repairs needed in this house and the "handyman" in charge keeps saying that he is coming over but never shows up. He is a stoner and all of his brain cells are fried. I am better off doing the repairs myself as always. What a joke.

The dogs!

Hugoboss and Phoenix love the backyard. And to my surprise they like the neighbours dogs. I am glad they are free to run around and get to be dogs, unlike the trouble the old neighbours gave me. They are adjusting well. The cats on the other hand are not. They keep hiding. Hopefully it will past. Cairo is sleeping next to me now and he is killing my sinuses!

Unpacking

I hate all this packing and unpacking. Most so when I am being gelled at every night. I have not had a full sleep. Nothing more then three hours. I was gelled at for two hours last night and four the night before.

Today, I fell down the stairs and hurt my left side. Later, the same thing happen and my ankle and my  shoulders are a mess. The pain is awful. I think I hit my head because I am vomiting. I am so tired but if I sleep maybe I will not wake up? Actually, now that I said that - that is a good idea. I would not be yelled at! Oh, wait! I would be but it would be over my dead body so who cares.

I am in so much pain inside and out.
