Aloha,WOW What a year that 08 was!. Well if i can only list it than here goes:
!. Javan decides to come home only for 3 night in Feb,because his friends dad passes away! It was a very fast trip but my son was very determined to come and pay his respect to papa Mc Gregor. I was really excited although when he left,I was so unhappy. I was just getting used to having his energy around me. And than he was gone!. But he has a job to do and I was even lucky to see him. I am so sorry to James who lost his dad! James is Javan's cowboy/classmate buddie!
@.Im march I went to Shaggy's birthday party . Me and Kathy ventured out to Lahaina to Hrd Rock Cafe. When I seen Him,he was with Maui Mulisha(Jon). And they were both very cordial to us. I admit i have a crush on Shaggy and I think he kinda know it. The night was super fun,it was like the 3rd time i meet him besides seeing his internet show'shaggylive'. Very different in a bar scene! This also when i got laid off from a part time job.(maui mountain cruisers) it lasted a month.
#. April, I went to The Hana Taro Festival! It has been so , long since I even went to Hana. I had a blast! I went with Penny and her son Skyler! Hana is jus really kick back style. All I did was enjoy good music(I remember the band Ai Pohaku from Big Island) and I ate taro mochi! yummy! The Hawaiian entertainment was jus awesome. We didn't stay and we drove back right after sunset.Oh yeah, as we cruised by Hana Bay berfore we came back, this guy goes Jamie, and I think to myself ,who knows ME in Hana? It turned out to be Joe T. And we knew each other in high school. small island moment.It was another good time on this beautiful island!
$. In the beginning of May , I went to a wedding on Molokai. I stayed 2 day and 3 nights. The wedding was Cindy and Shane! Cindy is a Molokai homegrown and the wedding was on the property where she grew up.,On'e Ali'i Fishponds. It is so beautiful there. I loved visiting Halawa Valley. Even if I got wheezzy coming back in the car , I didn't get sick but jus need ed out of a moving vehicle. i was glad to rest back at my room(at the Molokai Shores). I met some funny and interesting people.
% June Javan came home to visit. he is a JOY to have here. I was not working so lotsa time spent with each other. .Than the week before he leaves i get a job. Although that was very short lived(the job that is). I had to wait to file for UI benifits.
^ July My son turned 19 in Okinawa!
&. Aug still job searching and getting desperate.
* Sept.Well I was so desperate, this is what i did to humblize and redeam myself.>>TRU STORY
I woke up on the first monday of sept spring out of bed thinking to myself. Shoots if the vegerance can do it so can I. I got up and decided to make a cardboard sign that says DONATIONS WANTED FOR BILLS,GAS,FOOD. with a smiley face on it and i went to the intersection of Puunene and Daiery road(kitty corner to the kings catheral church. It was 8:20 am, and the sun was hot, and i just stood with my sign. it was very interesting. cause it is a busy intersection. And i just stand and watch the traffic and the road. Than the first car that stops, A MAUI ELECTRIC TRUCK with 2 workers in there. and they say"eh sistah you get the hardest job today" and they hand me some cash. wow! I tripped out cause i needed money so bad to pay for my electric!.Thana nother guy stops and walks up to me and gives me a hat. I am crying by this . I continue to stand till about1130am. than i go to make a payment on my electric. So i decide to stand in a spot in Spreklesville and it was not good. But by now it is like almost 4pm so i decide to go to kahukui. Right in front of the 24hr fitness on hana hwy. and i just stand. ONG the people just kept stopping. i had very many maui angels that day. wow I got home arounf 7pm and i made 220 dollars and i was so sunburn and dirty. i am so thankful for my house.
than on Thursday i try it again so i got to Alamaha Street near the minute stop, right under the shady trees. and i stood there. It was different but again i was blessed. that day was 80.00 and again i knew i could bay some bills and keep the phone on. After my 2 stints i did apporch Pastor dale from Pukalani Nazeren Church(that is where my son goes) and asked for donation. He was very kind and the church donated to me and i have gone to fellowship which i do like.Also he turned me on to the feed my sheep program. still no work though.
( Oct. was another struggle cause i had to wait til nov to be eleigable to apply for UI benifits .I went to the beach alot and was mindless on the internet. but i still kept my sanity.
)Nov. more of not to much of nothing except beaching it
