The Final Entry!!!!!!!! 7am

Before I say anything else, just pop along here would you to see what for me I feel about this whole thing:

This is it, the last one. Actually, you want to know? I’m sad.  An hour ago I went upstairs in the daylight and realised that a new day had begun and the stress had gone, and it felt completely weird, as if I’d dropped out of a time trap.

But as great as it is to be free again, to know I’ve made it, that I’ve earnt some money for BHF, that I’ve even been congratulated, well, as great as all that is, my baby has gone.

yeah, you know what I mean. I spent the last two? three? weeks thinking about this. I didn’t manage all that I thought about and I realised in some cases that I didn’t think about the right things, but hey, I made it and I gave it a good try.

I’m sad that I didn’t finish my ‘story’, that two of my favs are left waiting to know what happens, but I will finish it in this diary during these holidays, just without the pressure. I found writing this story so completely tiring, even exhausting, whereas churning out silly entries was just fun and doable – even when things were rough.

I’m not sad in the sense that I learnt a lot about trying to write a story, or even a book.  I will attempt NaNoWriMo again this year, but from a better place after what I did here in the last 24 hours.

And finally, I can’t go without saying thank you to my sponsers! Thank you so much!
I can’t go without saying thank you to Subtle Alliance, Nelys and Just K who supported valliantly throughout and I began to wonder when SA sleeps at all. 🙂
A special thank you also to Tiny Void who shared her entries with me, tried to drum up support for me and even cheered me on after already having blogged AND monitored on the early shift.  What a woman!!
Thank you to Sheana who got me reinstated so quickly yesterday!
Thank you to frykitty for keeping us going and above all, for choosing my entry and making my day! 🙂
And thank you to Sean who even got up at 3am just to see if I was ok. What a love.

It was tough – but it was worth it!!!! 🙂

Congratulations on finishing this…you did a grand job. Perhaps next year I will join you. I wonder if we’ll be on the same schedule though. I’d probably feel better with a friend around. Speaking of sleep, I slept till 11am today. My children are also on this schedule due to the fact that they are staying up late and there is no school.

Congrats! I’m glad you were able to finish!

Hehe. I just learned how to put pictures and videos into my blog not all that long ago. *blush* You’d think I’d be a little more computer savvy having grown up with it. Annnd….The complete lifestyle isn’t for me, either, but I have some friends who are part of that lifestyle and I get so tired of people judging them. 🙂

And…I asked her a billion questions about the picture. No one moved, it was a digital camera, the rest of the pictures turned out fine, there was ample light. I tried really hard to find an explanation for this one, but I just couldn’t. I’m planning to show it to a friend who knows a bit more about photography.

I just saw your note on Tiny Void’s OD and thought that this page might help you out with posting pictures and videos! 🙂 ~Shady http://www.opendiary.com/entryview.asp?authorcode=D714149&entry=10008

RYN: You’re quite welcome! If you ever get stuck on something technical, just give a yell… I may not know HTML or the ‘official’ words for techno-stuff but I’m usually pretty decent at puzzling things out. 🙂 ~Shady

I missed this all due to my holiday. But now I’ve read this all in one go. And you know … I’m tired only by reading this 😉 You did a fantastic job. Chapeau!
