Memories

You know how you want to preserve a memory so that you never forget? I have this fear that I'm going to forget things about my Grandmother. I'm thinking about starting a memory blog or journal to make sure I don't forget anything. I've been missing her so much lately. I talk to her in my head a lot, begging her to visit me. Lord help. I probably sound crazy. I just miss her that much. I know Jess understands. I wish I could hear her voice. She used to read to me when I was little. I loved her voice. She's the reason I love reading.

I would love comments or suggestions on the journal idea. I need a plan.

IT'S TIME

Ok so I know a couple of people who read my blog that are now also in love with Edward Cullen...lol. I'm so excited to see New Moon.

I love these books. I seem to forget in the process of this beautiful love story that the romantic, gorgeous, and stunning guy is in fact a vampire. I've read them all and fully intend to read them again. I'm now on a quest to get some kind of collectors box set of all four books.

I saw Stephanie Meyer on Oprah the other day. She told the story of the writing of the first book. She actually had a dream of what became the scene where Bella tells Edward she knows what he is. That whole forest scene where Edward reveals his sparking skin is where she started writing. She said that she didn't intend to write a book. She just wanted an ending to this great dream she had. She wrote from that point until the end of book one and then wrote the beginning. Aren't we all glad she had this dream?

In Touch

I am so excited that I have gotten back in touch with an old friend. Let me rephrase...we were best friends. As it happens with a lot of friends years ago we had some kind of falling out and I moved out and we didn't speak for a couple years. To tell you the truth I can't even remember what that was all about now. Anyway, she is one of those friends you can fall right back in rhythm with. It's like we never lost touch. I feel like I could tell her anything, just like we used to. I'm just so glad to be back in touch and plan to keep things going this time. I do believe everything happens for a reason. So, I'm sure there is a reason that fate has brought us back together now.
