Far, away from it all...

You and me with no one else around
A brand new start
Is all we need, it's all we need to mend these hearts
Back to the beginning

Be still
Let it go

Before we lost hope
When we still touched and love wasn't so hard 

Be still
I already know

Foolish one with the smile
You don't have to be brave
Every time we fall down 
But we're falling from grace
I'll gladly climb your walls if you'll meet me halfway

Slow, slow it down
Why do we run, we're missing so much babe
Just lay in my arms for a while

Be still
We should've known

Foolish one with the smile
You don't have to be brave
I'll gladly climb your walls 
If you'll meet me halfway
Every time we fall down
But we're falling from grace
Here's my hand and my heart
It's yours to take

Be still

Be Still- Kelly Clarkson

great song on a great album

The Road trip has been planned.. lol

July 25- August 2

new stops have been added

So last night I sat down with Jess and Stace... thus far we have a ton planned and worked out :) We have 2 free nights (one in Leavenworth and one in downtown Seattle) and maybe one in Portland. We are camping in Yellowstone and maybe on the beach in Washington. I'm so stoked.. I may buy the camping attachment for my car. We are gonna stop at Mount Rushmore and then on to Yellowstone to see Old Faithful and then the Space Needle in Seattle. Then of course Forks, WA and La Push... rafting through the rain forest. Whale watching has been requested. Mount St Helen's on the way to Portland, OR. Then Stace and Jess depart via airplane (for free.. word) and I am on my own. I am staying in Sisters, Oregon for a few weeks. Long journey home but I'm stoked to get to do it. 

So that's my update on that :) I will keep you posted if anything changes

Oh and if you have any ideas of cool places to stop on that route 

you should tell me... I'm trying to pinpoint what to do on the way home.

grace and peace

I'd like to see unnaturally, How mentally you played with me...

You took from me what's not meant to be
It's destiny that's how it should be
So, Don't have a cry and spare me your sigh
Cos, the you and I, it's all gonna die
You see the Universe will take care of me
And that is how I'm gonna forget quickly

my dance around jam this week

Pinup shoot tonight.

I'm so stoked to do the pinup shoot. I'm doing hair and makeup which will of course rock because I'm getting to do what I love best. Getting to create a new up-doo is my favorite especially creating one inspired by an old school era. I have a ton of stuff I'm bringing :) I'm pretty sure Jenny will do outstanding shots as usual. NOTE TO ZANE & LEALAN: no bikinis or nurse outfits lol

My week has been crazy. My life has been even crazier. Hopefully I get a chance to update soon. Oh and to all my friends who watch Grey's... It's getting intense next week is gonna be "crazy". I'm in love with Owen and love the Owen/Christina affair... good script work.

grace and peace

I need...

-My Narnia book [I have 2 chapters left and I cant move on until I read the end] I left at the church along with a copy of church keys [because every time I go to get a copy they have the machine closed down or broken or somebody who doesn't know how to do it]
-My heart to stop hurting
-To find a different way of living that works... I'm unhealthy right now
-Business to pick up and people to stop whining [spend money and pour back into the economy its the only way this is gonna get better]
-The Government to not come up with any more bogus bills to pass[MILLIONS going to global warming research...puh-lease... that just went into some schmoes pocket, maybe even Al Gore]
-The two men looking at my grandmothers house to back out
-My family to not be crazy
-My cat to stop scratching the crap out of me
-A reason not to leave
-A new camera
-Our very rich neighbor to purchase my dad's property for $5 mil
-Our very rich neighbor to make some kind of offer on the property
-The cute [very hippie] guy in the office to not be so dang cute and sweet
-Granola snack mix... I'm having a craving
-My ideas to become reality
-My creative dry spell to end... now.
-Strength. hope. love.
-Prayer



I'm being pulled in so many directions it's unreal. For the first time in a while I feel alive... which sounds dramatic but seriously I have felt so dry lately. Onevision has been a blast starting up and helping out with youth again is refreshing and eye opening. But God pulling, tugging on me and filling me up has been the only thing getting me through the days. Giving me hope. Teaching me patience. Healing my heart. Showing me freedom. He has loved on me through it all. My needs [above] are so small compared to the grand scheme of things and seem irrelevant but I thought I would share. Sometimes release is good.

I'm working on being open and ready for anything. I'm totally chasing the Wild Goose.

sleepless nights, drowning at the bar
when it comes to mind blood rushes to my head
like a sad song all along I’m the one who’s scared
the won who lost and a fool to pay the cost
I shoulda done my best &I shoulda loved you steady
but I'm learning as I go,
don’t you know there are days when it hurts so bad
everybody changes with a chance,
yeah but I’m learning as I go,
don’t you know there are days when it hurts so bad
everybody changes with a chance, and I came around.

I Came Around- Amie Miriello
