Never Too Many

But as I post that and mean it from the bottom of my heart, that one can never have too many true friends, and one can never have too many messages from them, sometimes physical limitations get in the way. :P

I have posted this on my G+ Wall and my blog, and am emailing it out to all my contacts as well.

I've just taken on a secretary to deal with my rather large amount of messages/chat notifs/emails.
I'd like to introduce you to my dear friend and adoptive sister Emma Alabaster, who will be answering some of the messages that come in to me.

I will still be attempting to respond personally as much as possible, but sometimes I can't complete it on the weekend before the working week begins, and if this lapses too long, well. Some of you are waiting for a response after 2 years.
Em will be operating on my FB and Gmail (and occasionally to perhaps answer blog comments) ONLY WHEN I HAVE SENT HER a private message stating that I need her to clear something for me.

THIS WILL NOT BE CONSTANT - I will still be around the majority of the time, Lord willing.

I WILL PUT A NOTICE OUT on the network she will be working on, letting you know that she is online, in case you're about to chat me privately.

Em's main role is to read through the messages/chats/emails, respond to them if possible and note them if she can't, which latter she will then forward me a list of.

If you NEED to chat to me personally, put something at the beginning of the mail/chat saying FOR SIAN/JANE'S EYES ONLY, or some such, and it will be noted for me straightaway without any reading.

Em will be signing her posts/responses with "On behalf of Sian, Her Beloved Secretary" or something amusing and equally funny but true, so that you know if I personally haven't responded to you.

I THINK that's all...if you've any concerns, feel free to shoot me a message/drop a comment. I'm still responding for now.

Oh, and to respond to one previously expressed concern, if you send me a message to see how I'm doing, that will be noted and forwarded onto me.

If you need to contact her, everyone, her email is sianssecretary@gmail.com.
I'm expecting all my friends to be mature people and use this only the way it's intended, for any queries, concerns, etc.
No spam. I'd hate to lose someone I need very much because of some of you guys showing your immature sides. Thanks! ;)

This will be interesting...I've never had a secretary before. ^_^

In Christ,
Mademoiselle Siân

Outta 'Arm's Way

It's painful. And it's sore. It's so sore I spend washtime dabbing water on portions of my skin because if I shower properly, I end up crying with pain. It's inherited genetically. I remember Daddy telling me his started when he was 19. It went all over his entire body - including his face. He had the wet kind - weeping, they call it - on his face. He had to go to work every day like that. And he said he felt disgusting, like a leper. Until he took aloe vera tablets, which reduced his eczema to some kind of controllable level. It started when I was a kid. Behind the backs of my knees and in the crooks of my arms. Then it faded until I only had it occasionally on the elbow of my right arm. Last year, it flared up again. REALLY bad. On my arms. Then I went to America. It was bad when I arrived. Came back a little in Oregon due to the dryness of the air. But otherwise, it was cleared. I forgot I had ever had eczema. Then I came home. And started work. ...

My Battle with Modesty

WARNING: I'm not sure about the appropriateness of this for guys...so if you think it's bad, stop reading. Okay? I read Jay Lauser’s excellent post on A New Kind of Modesty (which you really, really, really should read, though I won’t post it up seven times like my big sister C’rissie :P) yesterday, and thought I would like to blog my struggle and weakness in that area for...encouragement? General opinion? Not quite sure, although it certainly wasn’t out of self consideration. :P Then I read C’rissie’s post connected with Jay’s, A Rant on Modesty ;), which you can read here . And decided that I felt too embarrassed after reading that, because they were both so good and covered the ground enough, so I wouldn’t. Well, this morning, I changed my mind. (Although after rereading it again just, with all the comments, I feel quite small about posting this...*hits send before I rethink*) It’s not too often that I gain a victory over my worldliness to be happy in the clothes I’m weari...

Best Time of My Life ~ Now

You know those points in life where things just hit you? It came to me as I was washing up in the kitchen, snuggled in my fluffy grey dressing gown, the electric light off and the warm glow of the sunset fading in through the window, Michael Card's Celtic music playing in the background. I'm 21. And finally life seems to be coming, in a way. So many plans and hopes and dreams buzzing through my head, so much that is likely to and so easily can be smashed. "I'm fine on my own," I said aloud, laughed, looked up and sighed. These moments where I'm the only one in the house and can talk out loud on everything with God - cause He already knows it - and know the intimate closeness of Him in my spirit. "No, I'm not. But I'm okay with that. You're here, and You'll be with me until the time is right." Marriages are sprouting up all around me as my friends begin to pair off, and the middle-aged-21 crisis struck me. Not so much because...
