I've been online since about 1989. This was my personal blog for my family and friends spread throughout the world. I've maintained this LJ from May 2001 to March 2008.
As of March 2008 partly because some Russians (SUP) took over SixApart LOL, I do not know how they will use my personal information, and I do not like censorship of any kind like how they censor some citizens in Russia so I no longer update this journal. (I used to maintain this blog for my family and friends who live in various parts of the world. I have since been posting in my other blogs elsewhere at Wordpress and Twitter as well as at Facebook. (I prefer Wordpress and Facebook over Livejournal.) I also have a dreamwidth. I log in here once in awhile to leave comments. If you want to find me look for my Wordpresses though they are under different names.
Stalkers, stalkers everywhere: Some stalkers who don't have much of a life sometimes spend their time stalking me online. Unfortunately for stalkers while I log into this blog to leave comments nowadays I write and maintain a personal blog elsewhere so there isn't much to stalk here.
Update: I'm in the midst of buying this investment property which is a 1200 square foot (heated) single family home for about $60,000 U.S.:




Trying to get some duplexes and triplexes too. Therefore not much time to sit and post here LOL
Besides work I have been working out as usual, gardening, and reading lots.
My "new" leather reading chair that I bought from a hospice thrift store for $80 yo:

The picture does not do it justice. As you can see the flash washed out the color but dayum... it's a comfy reading chair LOL
with matching couch which was about $280:

I have also been sewing


and packing lunchboxes for work and for play:



As well as adopting two more dogs from the SPCA:


Now I have three dogs (two adopted from the SPCA) and one cat (also adopted from the SPCA.) GOODBYE!
- Mood:
happy

Comments
This is one of them:
A very small one compared to others. I want a sleeve.
I haven't gotten anything?
Someone found my journal and was reading the old entries, which are too many to change individually, so I just made a new name.
I hope I dont lose any friends this way!!
You can see the thread right here. Your friend
I'm not too good with the LJ thing and i LOVE your layout. Perhaps you could give me some help with mine or i could have your overrides. I don't want to sound needy or demanding, this stuff just blows my mind.

chippewas of Nawash First Nation,Ontario,Canada. What i've read so far ur ppl have gotten a raw deal thru the years from the governments. Im new 2 comps hope this gets thru.lol....catch u later......Telford
As far as the Chippewa, I have read some things about the struggles and I'm biased when it comes to native people. Just so you know. Anyway I hope you see this and thanks for commenting! L :)
I love what you are doing to promote the Hawaiian culture and people. I just recently moved to Oahu and, although I'm haole, have been educating myself about Hawaiian music, folktales and trying to learn the language.

Anyway thank you. For someone to even want to learn about another culture and perhaps its language... that's pretty cool! :)
ethnically pretty strictly haole myself, but born and raised in Honolulu, so naturally I'm finding your journal more than a little bit interesting...mind if I add you?
Kate, on call in the hospital, web-surfing, and hiding from my fellow who doesn't like me.
I really hope that this okay but i just wanted to ask you for some advice. You seem very informed about race relations in Hawaii. I am a Canadian student working on a class project about minorities in Hawaii. We were going to use the islands as an example of a place where different ethnicities are respected and where there are successful relations between the many ohanas. However, after reading the information that you have posted to various communities, I would absolutely love to get your perspective. Are there are any key things that I should read/ understand that might help with the project? We are looking at how ethnicity ties in with national identity as well, if that helps, and are examining the context of minority groups in nations. This would be a good chance for us to further understanding about the current climate in Hawaii for a number of students who may go out and work with a variety of other groups/ cultural settings in the future.
Thanks very much for any insight.

But my nutritionist suggested that I can eat one serving of meat, chicken, and eggs per week. Unlimited fish but even that may be dangerous for women and/or pregnant women.
This website gives you more info:

You seem so cool, almost like a ambasadeur (is that right in english?)
Yes, actually they removed all my songs, it was boring...
I found your diary through gym-rats. I enjoy reading your posts and hope that you'll add me as a friend.
Damn straight it is your journal and damn straight post whatever you want... no one forces someone to read it.
