today the french put us in our place (again!!!)...i along with all of nz and all kiwis around the world am sooooooooo depressed at the loss of the All Blacks that I can't bare to leave my house! it sounds ridiculous and i wish i was kidding...but we lost our quarter final...i woke up in the early morning to watch it on tv and have been wandering around in a daze ever since....i can't believe we lost again....we have only won 1 world cup....we didn't even make the semis....we win every other game...aaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH.
it's like a black cloud is sitting over my head....i haven't even changed or brushed my teeth.....i just can't believe it....why why why....we had 4 years to get this right....i feel like drowning my sorrows.....i'm so upset...we never get this right...i never want to watch another game...it's like London all over again...i was in London when we lost that world cup...i nearly took up smoking. this seriously sucks!!!!!
For those who don't know what i'm talking about it's Rugby. Just a game to most people...but to me it's everything good about being from a small nation in a big wide world...we take on the world and we win...but never at the world cup...ok once but that was so long ago who cares????!!! 20 years....and we haven't won the world cup....i'm not up to going anywhere today.

why do you believe?
Tell us why do you believe? When the world says your crazy what is it that compells you to follow someone you've never met, believe in an unseen God?
I believe not only because I grew up in a christian family but because when I was 16, at a crucial turning point in my life, the LORD intervened and saved me. I was at a youth camp listening to a song which broke me...I realised that the LORD had forgiven me but I had not forgive myself for being the person I was becoming. I felt I wasn't worthy of such a sacrifice. When I realised this a huge weight was lifted of my shoulder and I accepted the LORD's UNCONDITIONAL love wholeheartedly.
It gave me the strength to say NO to a major crisis in my life and turn back from a road leading to Satan. I began a personal relationship with the LORD which nothing and no one can ever replace.
What is it that compells me to believe?? It's me. I could have been one of Satan's little helpers but because the LORD made me a new person, restored my innocence, gave me beauty for ashes...I am the LORD's daughter...imperfect and beautiful all at the same time.
If anyone reads this please don't think i'm bragging...I know my place...I am one of many, many daughters, many children through the generations.
So why do you believe?

caleb in action
my son was so well behaved today. here he is in action as he climbs my wall of cushions to reach all those wonderful things he's not allowed to touch :-)crazy day
what a day we had today. Firstly, myles and i both forgot i had an ivf scan and blood test appointment today for different reasons. I had to have this today for the timing of my embryo transfer and the Doctor able to do this was only available in the morning.
Rec'd a call at 8:30am from the clinic, called myles to rush back from work so we could attend together and because i can't drive :-( For myles that meant jumping on a train then picking up the car driving to pick me up and drive to the clinic. He gets to the car...flat tyre! Thankfully the LORD was on the job and Myles happened to be talking to our Pastor who was just leaving home with his family.
So I'm sitting on my doorstep anxiously waiting and praying, thinking something must be wrong with the car...when my Pastor drives up with his whole family in tow...and myles jumps out of the back seat.
Very funny...so we did the scan and blood test and they couldn't find my vein so had 2 jabs todays :-(
Plus I was meant to meet up with a friend and son that I have always cancelled on or something has come up...I turned up an hr and 1/2 late...thanks to IVF mix up.
We had to get my sister in law to pick us up after...it was a relief to meet up with my friend and just chill in the sun after all that drama.
So the scan showed it's all go for the transfer. I had a trigger injection tonite which killed...one of those scarry long needles. And next few days are crucial...transfer tues.
What a day! And i chilled out tonite with a Stargate overload. Hope the weekend is quieter :-)
