Journal Entry 6

Dear Journal,          March 25th

Today is a really windy day. It was so windy that you think it would the branches off. Some of the trees that were on our grounds were fairly old. We worried that they would come down on us, the house or even the garden. Thankfully the winds die down but in the mean while, Rick came in to stay with us. It was that bad. He worried about the garden a lot but once he was outside they were fine. He went back on taking care of them but after that instead of going inside his home, he went to see someone. We didn’t think much of it at the time. Since we were busy with other things going on. One of the many things that were going on was my eyes changing colors. It wasn’t really common for people for eyes to change color. However most people had it happen with moods they were in. Not so many though but it was very hard to deal with. Chris was starting to worry again and so was I. I decided that I would go see the doctor. Though I did see them another time but they said the same thing.

I took the time to get change and have a nice quiet lunch with Chris. I headed to the doctor soon after I was done. I would tell Chris what I have learned if I learned anything at all. Chris was getting pretty unsure and upset with all the unknown things going on. I got into the car not wanting to waste my time looking at my garden or even going through the path to town. I then came to the hospital and parked my car. I then called Chris and told him I was going inside the building. I then told him I would see him soon. I then headed inside the hospital area. I then went to the lady at the desk and asked her where my doctor’s room was at. Since it had been a while since I last saw him. She pointed the way and I headed in the waiting room. I was there for sometime. Then my doctor met me at the waiting room. He greeted me warmly and we headed inside his office.

Inside his office was a nice desk where his laptop was laying on it. Behind the desk were two large book shelves. The shelves were filled up with all different kinds of medications or curse for it. However I was still amaze as the size of the book shelves. There were two nice cozy size living room chairs in front of the desk. There were some posters and pictures hanging on the walls. I sat down as we were to being talking about my eyes once again.

He sat down quietly and then said, “Hello Mrs. Midnight. It is good to see you again. How are things going for you?”

I told him that everything was going well. The only main problem I been dealing with was my red eyes coming back. It had been a while since my red eyes came back but then somehow they came again. This time I had a feeling was for good. We were quiet for a while after I told him about my eyes coming back again. I sure he knew when he saw sitting in the waiting room that my eyes looked a lot different then before.

Then he said, “Well it seem as you are right that your red eyes are back again. I’m not sure really how it happens. We are still looking into what the problem is. We are very puzzle on how it started and where it really came from. However it seems to not harm the body in any way, even though it makes your eyes red. You still will be able to see with them but I and many other doctors are still looking into the problem. I’m sorry to say there not much I can do. I will be looking into it farther but for now just take care of yourself.”

I nodded and thanked him for the time. I then got up and headed to the door. I then closed it behind me and about to leave when a man left his room that look like he had red eyes as well. I was amazed because I thought I was the only one with the problem. I slowly came up to the man and asked him how he got his red eyes. He seemed very nervous about me asking about it. I thought I made him feel bad for me asking him but he told me to come to his place and he would tell me. At first I wasn’t sure but seeing how it was important for me to know what was going on, I decided to trust him. I headed to my car and followed him to his house. His house was not as bad looking as one would think. We headed inside before anything could say I was cheating behind my husband back or anything else.

He seem to understand the celebrity pretty well. Since he pretty much heard about me from the news to other things. We sat down in his living room, where we began talking about the red eyes. He told me that he heard rumors that it came from people being born with red eyes. He told me that they were sick and got the red eyes. I still didn’t totally believe or even understand it. He showed me some information he got out of a newspaper laying around his house. He told me that the past owners were different then any others. He found it hidden somewhere about the red eyes people got. He wasn’t sure how it came or even how it happen but somehow people were getting red eyes. I spend the mainly few minutes thanking him and told him I would email him if I ever found anything else or him as well. I hope into the car and headed home.

Once home, I told Chris what had happen. He was a bit surprise about the guy that had red eyes but he understood why I went. We ate dinner quietly and Chris clean the dishes. I went on my computer to work on some things I learn. I went on the internet to learn more about the red eyes. I learn a lot. I heard some people said that it was from getting sick like having a flu that made people then mind change weird. Others said that you get bit by Vampires which we heard were just a rumor, non have been seen, not even at night. Still other say it from being part Vampire, as that could ever happen. It was pretty weird but I sent the information to the guy I just met. I turn off my computer and came over to Chris. He talked to me about his day and I told him mine. After that we snuggle for a bit and then fell asleep into each other arms.

~~

March 31st

Today was much better day. I still be learning more about what wrong with my eyes. Since lately I haven’t been getting much help. I talked to the same guy and he told me that he got his eyes from some rare plant he was eating. He said that much people didn’t buy the plant because of the fact it was weird looking but others came to get it. He wasn’t sure what else to say about them other then they were red. We talked for hours about it. I still wasn’t sure if that was the problem but I decided to read some more. I went on the computer after that and found out more about Vampires at least if they were real. I was surprise to find out that they were REAL. I was a bit surprise with this. They say that they come out really late at night. When everyone is a sleep and goes in hiding in the morning. They can’t be around the sun or they will burn. They don’t like garlic. We all pretty much know the reason why to that. I learn that the first ever Vampire came a long time ago. How the Vampire came to be is still a mystery. They said that the person was either bitten by some crazy person who thought they were vampires or something happen in their blood system to change them. Like I said I still not sure how that could happen. After spend a good few hours learning more. I decided to stop. After I send another email to the guy, I headed downstairs to spend sometime with Rick and Chris. They were happy to see me and asked how things were going. I told them it was going well but still hard to know what going on.

After we spend sometime together. Christ sat on the bed and asked me if we could try having a child again. This time I was feeling bad about saying no or anything. So we decided to give it a try. That night was the night we would remember forever. It was nice feeling him against me and hearing him say how much he loved me. It has been a long time since we felt close. Sure we were close on our wedding night but it seem like we were far apart until now. After that we feel sleep having sweet dreams of what would come. I just hope deep down that this time nothing will go wrong. For I still have my worries and doubts but try not to share them too much.

 

 

 

 

Journal Entry 5

Author’s Note: Sorry I haven’t been around. I just been busy with other things. I decided to share some of the boring parts in this Journal Entry to better understand what been going on. On days that haven’t been posted. Most of the journals are the same with this, so I didn’t wanted to make people bored with it. The Midnight family was very popular with parties and working hard. This will talk more about them and what went on. Please Enjoy!

Dear Journal,          March 18

Today has been a really exciting day. Work has been the same like all the other day. Get up, then dress and out the door to work. Chris would be already gone for working. Since he works in the morning up until the late afternoons. By the time he comes home, I would be at work and not come home until later that evening around 6 or 7 pm. Once the evening coming, I would be pretty tired. However when it comes to the weekend it would be different.  I was invited to a friend’s tea party. A tea party was different then a house party. Since a house party was pretty much males and females would go together. The tea party was only females would be invited to go. However the males also have their parties they would go too. Their party name was pretty much the same as the house party but just for males.

I got myself dress into a nice lovely dress. I got ready to see my friend. I was a few minutes late. Once I was there I felt really bad for being late. I told my friend once I was there that I was deeply sorry for being late. She just seem to give a smile and told me it was fine. She understood where I was coming from. Since she was dealing with her own work life and family life as well. I have now family but that of my husband. She and I talked about if I ever have kids again but I told her that I wasn’t ready for it yet. We talked about other things after that. Sipping our tea and enjoy our company. It got pretty late before I came home.

Chris was already in bed by the time I got home. I got changed into my nightclothes and brushed my teeth. Then I climbed into bed and got my sleep before the next day would come.

~~

March 19

The next morning I woke up, it was the weekend and I didn’t have to worry about getting up for work. The sun shine came through our blinds, sending shadows as it slowly woke up everyone from their deep sleep. Chris was already up by this time of day. He was busy talking to Rick about many different things. I slowly climbed out of bed, placing my feet on the ground and slowly getting up. I wrapped my robe around me as I headed downstairs to get something to drink. Tea was always best in the morning and later in the evening. I made myself some cup of tea.

Then after reading a cook book for a while, I headed out to see the garden. The garden looked pretty good. The vegetables and fruits were growing fairly well. Rick had kept it up while Chris and I were busy with many different things. I told Rick and Chris I would be helping into town. Instead of taking a car I headed down the forest. The forest had a path that leads to the town. I walk down the pathway many times before. I kept going for a while before I finally reach the end of the path. I went into the bookstore to get some books besides talking to the neighbors or people passing by. After that I went to the grocery store to get some things besides selling some of the fruit and vegetables.

I talked to a friend of mine about different things. I was seeing how she was doing. Her family and her were having some hard times with things. I told her a few of my problems as well. We went to the café and got something to eat. She joined me and we talked a little longer. It was getting evening time before we had to go. I thanked her for a nice chat and said our “goodbye.”

I then went onto the path again and headed home. Once at home, Chris and I were talking for a bit. We went to bed after that. We were really tired. Rick was doing well with taking care of the garden. I even told him before I went to bed that the garden looked great. The fruit and vegetables were great as well. They were selling pretty well and even help other people get food in them. I was really happy. Rick seem happy as well. Our life was pretty simply as you could tell.

Dear Journal,   March 1st

You probably wondering what happen after the storm hit our town. Throughout the night the rains pour like a forever flowing waterfall. I was wondering if there would be flooding or we would be stuck in our homes forever. However in the early mornings the sun slowly came pouring in our windows. I wondered how Rick slept last night. I’m sure he was worried about the garden. Not knowing if the storm did much damaged on them. Chris was already up and downstairs by the time I got up. I slowly wrapped my robe on me and headed downstairs. I dare not look out the windows. I didn’t want to see what happen outside yet. My mind was still restless of all the noise. No you could say I’m not really afraid but I do get worry easily then most forks here.

Once I was downstairs I made myself a cup of tea. I always love having tea in the morning. It slowly wakes me up with just right amount of warmth as well. Chris and Rick were in the living room. Talking away as they sip their coffee. I came in after my tea was done to see how everyone was going. Rick was telling Chris that the storm didn’t do too much damage on the plants. He was able to go out that night from a little break in the storm to cover the plants well enough that they weren’t get badly damaged. I simply listen as Rick went on about how other people had more damage then we did. I was bit surprise but maybe because of the protection of the trees seem to help us. I still wasn’t sure. Whatever the reason was that kept us from the worse of the storm, I was just happy nothing else bad happen to us.

Once we were done with our drinks, we went out finally to see what really happen. There was branches, leaves and many other items outside. However when I looked at our garden, they were safe. Some how Rick was able to make a special cover that kept the plants from getting rip up. Rick then took the cover off to see how the plants faired and to our surprise they seem to be doing fine. Then Chris and I went over to check on our neighbors but before leaving we took some of our healthy fruits and vegetable over to them. They were very happy and thanked us many times. We told them that it was nothing and they would do the same. It was true. They would do the same for us as we would do for them. Then we took care of some of the branches, leaves and other items covering their lawns. We spent the remaining day helping out our neighbors or giving food to them.

We went back home and took care of ourselves. Rick came in after working hard on the garden and helping other people who needed advice or other help. Rick made some really good tomato soup and we sat down eating it. We talked about how the day was going and then headed to bed. We were all really tired and wondering how the other days would be like. As we all know March brings the rain.

~~

March 17th

Happy St. Patrick’s Day. It has been a wonderful day. Full of great joy and everything in between. Chris, Rick and I celebrate the day with great food. We even watch some many different Irish shows on TV and learn more about St. Patrick’s Day. Sadly we didn’t wear green. O well I guess it not that important. Honestly it was just great to have different food and learn something different. Rick seem to enjoy himself. Same with Chris and I. We spend most of the day outside. Thank goodness there was no more rain or my poor head will be going cabin crazy. Well more like house crazy then cabin crazy but I think you understand were I’m coming from.

We decided to also have a big get together with all our neighbors and friends. We had drinks and food with them. The town was pretty much clean up since our somewhat big storm that came rowing in. Everyone we knew had a lot of damage and it took a long time for them to fix everything. Chris and I even took time off of work to help out. The power was out for a few days as well. It was really bad but somehow we made it through it.

Chris and I then saw a great Irish movie while Rick stay home taking care of the garden. We asked him if he wanted to come but he didn’t seem to mind staying home. I still wondering what was gong on but I guess sometime we will find out the reason he didn’t want to go. Chris and I had a great time through. Then we went to the beach. We haven’t been at the beach in a long time. Chris then asked me about having children. It been a while since he bought it up last. I told him flatly that right now was not the best time. He drop the subject and hasn’t as me since then. I might seem rude about it but all honestly I think you understand my reason for it. I am still worried we wouldn’t be able to have another one. If we did I wasn’t sure if I could handle unknown problems.

As you may or may not know I had my red eyes coming back again. I had seen the doctors but they still weren’t sure where they were coming from. Chris was also worried about me. This I know was true but in the same way I knew that it will always be a part of me. I never knew why this happen or how it came to be but that how life was about. I decided not to think about this matter since it was a special holiday. We just enjoy our company siting at the beach for a while. Then we headed home.

I sat down reading a very interesting saying.  The saying read like this:

"Dance
as if no one were watching,
Sing
as if no one were listening,
And Live
Everyday
as if it were your last."
An Irish Proverb

It was an interesting saying. A saying that stay with me for a long time. I never forgot about it. Since it means a lot to me. Then after reading the newspaper for a while we went to bed.

Dear Journal,            February 10th

Life has treated me fairly well this few days. I was out in the garden to check on how things were going. Chris was off at work by now but I still had some time before I had to go to work. Rick has greeted me with a kindly smile as he was bent over pulling some weeds from the garden. He kept the garden well care for. No surprise there since he knew how to take care of the garden for a long time. His father was pretty much a farmer/rancher for as long as I could remember. His mother was a house wife taking care of her family and doing most of the cooking. I remember going over there a few times before and having a wonderful meal. It was hard to realized they were gone but somehow Rick was doing a pretty good job in his life. We hardly talk too much about his parents for it would bring tears to his eyes.

Just before it was time for me to head to work, I got a call from the local paper company wanting to know if I could come to my house party. I have not told you this but a few days ago I decided to have a nice house party for family, friends and people from work. I thought it would give some time to get over the lost of our first child. For it has been almost a month since we lost our child. In that time I have mop more then a week. Chris and Rick did there best. They were almost going to take me to the doctors since I didn’t work for a while but started to get better. Rick came up with the idea of having a nice house party. This weekend was all set for having a wonderful party.

Going back to the phone call I had invited them to come. Since I found it was interesting the newspaper company wanted to come to my party but didn’t think much about it. I was off at work while Rick and Chris started getting things ready. Rick wanted to use the fruit and vegetables we have in the garden. He wanted them in the salads and different things. Once I came home from work, I took a nice warm shower and got ready for the evening. Dressed in the best clothes and the smell of the food filling the room, the first guests have arrived. No surprise it was the newspaper company who came first but we let them in. Slowly everyone came in and we started the party off with wonderful music. While the music played we had some fine wine as we chatted away. Chris and I sat down as the newspaper company began talking to us. They asked us questions and we answered them. To my surprise we were going to be in the front page of a new magazine called New Homes. New homes didn’t really mean new new homes but what people did with their homes. Mainly decorations, cooking tips and party ideas. I was surprised he asked us to be the first. I wasn’t sure if it was because of the fact what happen in our life or that because we were becoming more famous. I looked at Chris a few times. He seem to be more then a little happy about the idea but I decided I would talk to him more about it later. We agreed to be part of the new magazine issues. They then told us they would have it out soon but just wanted to thank us for letting them join the party.

The party it self was going pretty well. People talked about how great our food taste and how we got it to taste so good. It seems like Rick was gaining more friends throughout the night. They were asking him so many questions. I was worried his brain would fall off but he seem to take it well. It was starting to get pretty late before slowly everyone was leaving. They thanked us a million times it seem as they headed out to go to their homes. Chris and I waved “goodbye” to them. We helped Rick put the plates in the dishwashers. We did some other cleaning before we headed off for the night. We said, “Goodnight” to Rick as he headed for bed. Chris and I headed upstairs to our room. We got changed in our nightclothes and sat on the bed to talk for a moment.

“Chris, why were you so excited about us being in the magazine issue? I know your happy but you didn’t have to be overly excited about it. Just makes me wonder if you plan all this or not.”

He gave me a grin like that as if he hide something from me. Just the same why you was like that before we got engage how he planed things out without me knowing it. It started to make me worry a little but Chris seem to even relax me without me always knowing it. We were quiet for a moment. He didn’t say anything right away but let me think for a moment.

Then he said, “ Well love reason I was excited about us being in the magazine issue was because of the fact that it was our first time. Plus I kind went out of my way to have it happen. Since you have been feeling so depressed about our lost of our first child. I know it is hard losing something we love so dearly but that doesn’t stop us for having a life. I love you deeply and want you to know that I am always here for you. No matter what goes on or what people say. I just learn about this new magazine just before you planed out a party. I told them about it and they gave you a call. Which I wasn’t sure if you would let them come or not but it work out the way it should be. I just want you happy and see you so upset makes me feel even worse. It is like I can’t help you even if I wanted too. Just promise you never get this depressed because I don’t know if my heart can take this too much.”

Feel at a lost but yet happy he did this for me, I told him that I would never be this depressed again. That night we snuggled into each other arms and dreamed happy dreams.

~~

February 13th

It was just before Valentine’s Day. When we got a phone call from the newspaper company saying that our magazine issue was done. Chris went off and got it for us to see how it turn out. Once he got home, we looked at it together and found out it turn out great. Reading everything they said about our parties and saying how no one should missing going to our parties. It was just really great. They even shared some of our favorite recipes we enjoy cooking. We were very happy and decided to celebrate by going out to eat. Rick didn’t seem to mind us going. In fact he seem like he had other things on his mind. I sure he was making sure the garden was great but I could tell there was something else. How I know this is beyond me but somehow I felt he was hiding something. I didn’t push him into telling us what it was. It wasn’t my business to know but also to know that he would tell us what it is when the time came. The rest of the evening was spending time talking about the magazine. We were reading it over and over again. We were just really excited about.

February 14th

The next day was Valentine’s day. Chris and I had some plan we were going to do. First off we took time off from work to do it. Normally we would never do that but being how this was a special time of year, we figured that one day was not as bad. Since we could always work harder the next day. Chris and I went to the beach. It was the first time since we been there. We listen to music and eat some yummy sandwiches. We took a nice walk and listen to the sounds of the ocean. Chris was very much a romantic type of guy. He could carry you away with his charms and sweet talks. Which he seem to do with me. Not only that but he took me to a movie theater. It has been a long time since I really saw a movie but it was really nice to watch. Once the movie was done, we talked to the park for a bit and gaze up at the stars. He told me a few times how some of the stars made him think of me. I had to blush and told him the same. Which we were there for a while I started to get tired and Chris took me home. Once we were home, we fall sleep into each other arms. Too tired to change our clothes.

~~

February 29th

It was almost the end of February and March was almost coming it’s way. I sat down reading a really good book. I haven’t read a book in sometime. Not that I couldn’t take my busy time to read one but with all that has been going on. I haven’t really thought about reading. Chris however spend most of his time reading the newspaper. He love finding out what was going on. He even spend sometime emailing a few of his closest friends to find out how they were doing. Sometimes he was even on the phone couple of hours to check on everyone. He truly was the sweetest guy I ever met. Rick of course was outside taking care of the garden. He notice out of all three of us that there was a storm coming. He did his best to cover the plants before he had to head inside. The news reporter was telling us that a big storm was blowing in. No surprise there since we heard a loud thundering noise and heard the pouring of the rain. We didn’t know how the plants would do that night.

Chris invited Rick to stay the night in our big home. Since he mainly lived in the sunroom from our backyard. Since he told us that gardeners normally never came into the homes of where they were living. Mainly because they were working/helping the people who lived there. However he did come in time to time to help with the cooking. It was written somewhere that a gardener was welcome in the home to help with caring for pets, children and helping with the meals. It sounds like a crazy almost cruel way of looking at it but in some odd way it wasn’t. Rick did what he could do and spend most of his time in the sunroom. Reading lots of gardening books or cook books. Even making some really good coffee in the morning.

Once Rick was over and was staying the night, he made a really good soup. It was very fitting for tonight. We sat down and eat our yummy soup. It warmed us up and we all sat around talking about our day. Rick was shown where the guest bedroom and bathroom was. Then we went off to bed. Throughout  the night the wind blew loudly and rain poured hard. Lighten came and went, leaving it with the loud sounds of thunder. It was hard to fall asleep but somehow we made it through the night.

Well guys! I hope you like this chapter. It shows different things going on in life. Please enjoy!
