paradise

Finally I have achieved the dream that has plaguing me since I had the mind sharp enough to dream it. I have bought a camper- a 20 footer pull-behind variety. I am amazed and wondered at the luck that has befallen me these last couple of weeks. I have went from nothing to a place to live a job and a scattering of friends. I call it luck but it might just be a lot easier to achieve these things then I thought it was. I picked up this camper for 200 bucks and while it needs some smoothing and finishing over it promises to be a keeper. After all I haven't found too many projects that I can't finish and improve on myself (except my ill-fated last apartment). I sit in this wreck of a trailer and the designs just jump at me I could not avoid them if I wanted to. Within a couple of weeks I plan to have it fully livable including fridge, stove, sink and full washroom.
I would still like to make some more like-minded friends and I know they are around lurking in whatever abode they find. It is just a matter of calling them out and making them interested in what I have to offer, something I have had a problem with in the past.I do however spend my free days hiking in the gorgeous mountains and swimming in there immense pools. Isn't this it? I know they have been wondering where the garden of Eden is forever and I am pretty sure I have discovered at least snippets of it in the mountains and in the middle of lakes. I have also discovered a wonderful pool-hall in Chilliwack (the neighbouring metropolis) where I plan to spend every other free day honing what little skills I have. There is even a house snooker champion who offers lessons and I might take that up. Sure things are unsettling ocassionally which is to be expected with such a significant life-break, and sure every now and then the thoughts and realities catch up tome and I feel overwhelmed and don't have enough personal strength to hold up the facade, but these moments are becoming fewer and further between. Fornow I just got to keep on doing what I know best- making people laugh at me! Peace- Nat
