Tuesday 11 July 2006: Sarah is Phlegmish on this very Flemish day and enjoys escaping through People Magazine and Carnivàle…

Heidi says:I'm sorry Sra, to put my entry on top each time, but that is simply because I don't know how to move it without a mouse (this is a laptop and I am not handy without an attached mouse, and i cannot use one on my bed...)
I had a booooooring day! Tomorrow better!

Sarah says:
Today is Flemish Day! The day of that Flemish Lion! The day Flemish people celebrate being Flemish. I am sort of Flemish. I live where the Battle of the Golden Spurs was fought in 1302. I do have a lot of phlegm. I guess I am more Phlegm-ish than I am Flemish. In the photo above I am holding one of like 30 People Magazines that my buddy CK saved for me and had her daughter bring over to me. Thanks CK for feeding my addiction! I can’t explain it but I have always LOVED this crap magazine. I have gotten my husband hooked on it too. I don’t understand why I like it so much. I would like to think I am more intellectual than that but I’m not! Or maybe I am! Maybe it is possible to love such crap gossip mags that go on and on about shallow topics and yet still be smart. Could someone explain why we get hooked on these magazines? What is it about them? Is it our need for escape? Is it our want to be like those movie stars? At this point I am whipping through about three People Mags a day from the pile CK sent over. I am hooked. My husband and I read these mags before bed and talk about who looks best in which dress. What is wrong with us?

I also love the series Carnivàle! Heidi got me hooked on it by lending me the DVDs that Fej sent her! Thanks Heidi and Fej! My husband and I have been watching about 4 episodes a week. We are hooked! I love the story lines and filming. It’s all so grainy and macabre and rough. HBO is amazing. They put out such great series. I love all this escapism…

Monday 10 June 2006: Sarah wants to share her love handles and spare-tire with you and wishes you a lovely week…

Heidi says: I am not sad but this was the nicest picture of the ten I took... :)

Sarah says:
Heidi gets her belly shot and I get to show you how though I am getting thinner, that damn middle-section stays! It even gets more out of proportion! The damn thing has got to go away because that is the area that needs to have less fat for my back surgery at the end of this year! I guess it will be the last to go and I had better stay patient and keep up the good work! It’s uglier now than before though because you see it more. I am less in proportion somehow. But that will change – slowly but surely and I feel happy about that!

Here is my fave post secret entry from this week. We live I such a computer-internet culture now. It’s way too easy to email anyone we want and have no borders and go too far. It’s so sad that so many people have so many hurtful secrets. I hope I never discover my husband is having an affair through email or the internet. That would suck! It would suck no matter what but man would I hate to discover such emails…

Sunday 9 July 2006: Heidi has a calm day and Sarah is eating the day away at FC's pension feast!

Heidi says: So here I am again, big belly Heidi! I like my body like this; it is well balanced. My little girl is calmer than yesterday. Every now and then, she is giving little kicks or punches, but it's nothing compared to some days. Sometimes she is moving all day long, turning around which makes my belly go up and down, kicking hard with her little feet, pushing her hands against my ribs,... I love her. She can do whatever she wants. As long as she stays in there for another 5 to 10 weeks...


Sarah says:
Hi Heidi! Good to have you back on these pages and glad to have fed you well! Put your food order in for this week! I'm glad to feed you! I have always wanted to be your feeder! See the above photo? That's of me with my happy father-in-law FC. Today he celebrated his retirement. That's it! He's done working! I plan to put him to use though for sure. He can fix everything in my house to start! Just kidding FC! I hope you have fabulous years ahead of you! We love you! Thanks for the food yesterday! Keep smiling!
As for eating all day -- well, I ate more than usual but not that much. My belly can't hold as much as before, which is helpful. I hate dieting but I am happy to be losing some weight. My clothes fit better! I look better. I know that. I did have a sinful piece of cake yesterday! Man was that heavy and good. You realize how good sweets can be when you don't eat them a lot!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MY BROTHER AND HIS WIFE! I hope this year gets better by the minute for them! Can't wait to see them so soon in California!

Saturday 8 July 2006: Heidi is being spoiled by Sarah and all her other friends...

Heidi says: I have to tell you: I have great friends, a great family and a great sweetheart! Since I have been in the hospital, I have been taken care of like you wouldn't believe. "My" darling people have been cooking for me, visiting me, shopping for me, cleaning my house, doing my laundry, giving me the nicest presents, calling me to ask how I am doing, giving me attention, watching movies with me,... They are amazing, they truly are! I don't know what makes me deserve all these nice people with their nice gestures. They spend the little time they have (or don't have) to make me feel good, to make sure I don't get bored and most of all, they care for me and that little unborn girl. I cannot express enough how grateful I really am. Nothing that I would do, would be enough compared to what they do and are to me. But I can say this: I LOVE YOU ALL!!!! I DON'T DESERVE YOU!!!

Friday 07 July 2006: Heidi and Sarah like it hot!

Heidi says: sorry Sarah, but I just had to put a real Friday 7 July 2006-picture... Hi everyone!!!!!


Sarah says:
This photo was taken late enough last night that it might as well be today! I went to Heidi's to watch the fantastic old film Some Like It Hot.
That film was super! Jack Lemon reminds me of Franck Focketijn.

Not much to say today other than that Sleater Kinney message was a fake! Sorry Heidi! I know who did it and it wasn't very nice of them though they think they are funny! Do you think it's funny Heidi?

Have a great weekend eveyone!!!

Thursday 06 July 2006: Sarah has no time to stop and chat today until tonight when she goes and spends some time with Heidi...

Sarah says:
Gotta go gotta go gotta go. Still sweaty and still sleepy! Still hungry! If you look in yesterday’s comments you’ll see that the band Sleater Kinney stopped by Face The Day and left a comment for Heidi saying they are breaking up—which is old news by now but sad nonetheless! Maybe Greyn can be the next Sleater Kinney! Heidi always says my voice sort of sounds like their singer’s so…. To hear my voice and Greyn’s 4 new songs go to Greyn’s My Space page!

That's all folks...

Wednesday 05 July 2006: Sarah is sweating it out alone here as Heidi hangs out with Tom Boonen – and you thought she was resting!

Heidi says: my crew...

Sarah says:
This nasty photo of me is just to show you how hot it is!!! It was a ‘Do The Right Thing’ kind of night last night. I bet nobody in this region slept well last night! It was way too hot and there was lightning and thunder the whole night but no rain! It was a bit freaky. We are all tired today in West Flanders I’m sure. I for one have a mean headache and feel clammy all over. You can see it in this photo how slimy I am feeling! It was one of the worst nights yet. Today it’s thundery and darker and less hot. I hope we all sleep better tonight!

As for Heidi -- yeah well we all thought she was at home resting! Turns out she's been hanging out with Tom Boonen and his new yellow jersey! Check her out!

Tuesday 04 July 2006: Yippy yahoo Heidi is online again and put her photo and comments on yesterday and maybe today Sarah hopes! HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

Sarah says:

Yey! Look below at yesterday's entry! Heidi showed up and put a photo and comments from home! Yippee! I miss that gal! I hope she shows up every day! I need to pop by and visit her again soon. It’s been almost two days without her now. That’s too long!!!!!!!

Check me out with my skinny head! When and how did that happen? Is the photo lying or am I actually losing some weight? Crazy. Who would have thought!

Busy busy busy! No time to hang around. Enjoy the heat people. Let’s hope Heidi shows her head here soon. Heidi – if you get online and read this, email me girlfriend!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY EVERYONE!!! I should be having a BBQ somewhere but nope -- not me -- this is NOT a Belgian holiday, not one bit. However, I will celebrate tonight on my house stoop with boterhammen and some funny guys who will be taking over my home and neighborhood soon...

Monday 3 July 2006: Sarah Faces today alone again but is happy to have gotten Heidi twice in the weekend...

Sarah says:
Too tired and way too busy to put anything here right now. Good busy though! Very good busy! Have a great week!

Here's my absolute favorite Post Secret entry this week and maybe ever -- so simple but yet so true about how a good dump is sometimes the best you can offer and get out of your day! I know I feel that way a lot. Don't you? There are a lot of Post Secret goodies this week. Check them out. I'm sure you'll relate to some.

Heidi says: Yes yes, it's me!!! Unbelievable but true! I'm doing ok, fighting with my new laptop, tryng to figure out how it works. I'm enoying the sun as much as possible, reading books and magazines, and watching DVD's in the evening. I have a bit of a holiday feeling, which makes me forget sometimes why I am at home all the time. That is good. Sometimes I get the patient feeling, especially on rainy days. No matter how optimistic you can be in a situation like this, sometimes you do realise that you have to lie down for three months, THREE months! Me, an active, organising, enthusiastic woman, has to lie down for three months. 'Strict rest', the doctor said. I believe him, and so I follow his advise. I wonder when my body will protest. Day by day!

Sunday 02 July 2006: Sarah finds Heidi bathing in the sun and half-dressed for a suprise belly and body shot! Sarah spends the day at Park Jazz...

Sarah says:
Nice photo Heidi! Do you like it? Check you out all pregant and shiiii... Wow!!!!
Heidi looked good today sleeping in the sun. I wish she felt a bit better!!!

Park Jazz was nice. Calm. Good weekend. Not a lot to say about it.

Saturday 01 July 2006: Heidi and Sarah take a fast one in the sun...

Sarah says:
Heidi has got herself set up on her roof terrace, which is nice considering it is so sunny today! Sarah has a calsm weekend with nothing much to report so far...

Friday 30 June 2006: Sarah is HUNGRY and hates being on a diet!!!!!!!! If she sees you she may eat you! She did not eat her special guest BG though!

Sarah says:
I am a hungry hungry hippo! Don’t feed the animal! I may BITE you! I HATE DIETING!!!!!!

Have a GREAT weekend and don’t forget to listen to Greyn’s 4 new songs on Greyn’s My Space page.

Look below! That's my buddy and Heidi's sister's boyfriend BG from De Kreun in Bissegem soon to be in Kortrijk! BG was one of Sarah's first friends here in Belgium. He helped Belgium to feel like home for her. BG even came to Sarah's wedding in New York and met all her family and friends.

Sarah says:
Thanks for being a special guest on Face The Day Bart! It's great knowing you! Even my kid likes you and your bald head! I hope I still know you in another 10 years! I hope you have a great wedding this summer! Can we do a Face The Day Exclusive at your wedding???

Thursday 29 June 2006: Sarah finds a way to bring the old Heidi back via the postman who only rang once…

NEWSFLASH: Stopped by Heidi's and took this shot of her in her home-hospital bed. She's decorated it quite nicely with animal prints and parrots. Even looks like our Heiditje is getting into a little bondage!

Sarah says:
So because I am sick of my dumb head on here and I probably won’t see Heidi in time to get a shot of her, I took a creative approach to welcome our Heidi back to this site today. The postman brought her to me. As you can see, it is the old Heidi – all dressed-up with no where to go or something! Now she’s dressed down everyday and only has her bed to go to the poor girl! Yesterday she and I were as bored as each other. It was just that kind of day.

You have to know that Heidi and I live right near each other, drive to and from work together, work together, eat lunch together and hang out a lot in between all that in the evenings or on weekdays, plus we do this site together… SO YOU WON’T MIND ME GOING ON AND ON AND ON ABOUT HOW I MISS HER!!!!!!

Can you believe it is the end of June already?! In three weeks I have a three week vacation! How very spectacular! I can’t wait!! It’s back to America – first to Miami and then to LA and San Fran in California to see some family!

On a final note, you can now hear better versions of Greyn’s 4 new songs by clicking on the following Greyn My Space link. Let us know what you think of the songs

Wednesday 28 June 2006: Sarah saw Heidi last night – see pictures on yesterday’s entry! Today, Sarah is white as a ghost with slits for eyes – sicko!

Sarah says:
I’m a sicko still! Sick in the head, nose, eyes, back, belly. You name it, I got it. But I feel better than the last few days so there’s something!

Some things to report today!

Saw our Heiditje last night. She has fun news! Heidi made it onto the Vinyl sleeve of the new Devendra Banhart album! A year or so back she sent her photo in and yesterday heard the news that she might have been chosen along with many others. And she was!!!! Click on this link and it will take you to the site. See if you can find Heidi! Here’s a hint: she’s hairier than usual in the photo! Go Heidi Go!

Other funny stuff is this link that will lead you to the internet world of someone probably in high school somewhere in Ameriica who started a story about two girls named Heidi and Sarah! It's a story that everyone and anyone can add to. Have a look. It's funny and I SWEAR I didn't write any of it! Thanks to AS for the link!

Check yesterday's Face entry to see Heidi and her big belly!

Tuesday 27 June 2006: Sarah is faking her smile and pretending to reach out and hug you when really all she wants is her bed and Heidi!!!

NEWSFLASH: SAW HEIDI IN THE EVENING AND HERE ARE SOME SHOTS INCLUDING A GOOD BELLYSHOT! Heidi is in okay spirits! She's set up on a bed in her living room and basically rests all day long. She gets up to eat and use the toilet and then it's back into bed! She's sleeping well at night and reading and watching movies and listening to music in the day when not resting. Feel free to email her hotmail address and to call and visit her!



Sarah says:
Forgot to say the other day that on Saturday night I really enjoyed seeing the Unie der Zorgelozen play: Tijl. It was the best play of theirs I have seen. My daughter liked it too and she’s only 7 years old. From start to finish there was a lot going on visually that even though I sometimes couldn’t follow all the fast-spoken Dutch, I got the ideas I think and really was taken in by all of it. If you have the chance to see it before it ends Friday, go!!!! You’ll have a good evening I promise.

Next to that, all I have to say is the same old thing – I feel like crap today. Like I have been banging my body and head against a concrete wall all night! Need I say more other than I MISS HEIDI!!!!!

Monday 26 June 2006: Sick Sarah overdoses on drugs just to breath. She sees Heidi briefly who says hello...

Sarah says:
I am sick of being sick of being sick of being sick. Are you sick of hearing about sickness?
Anyway, the drugs don't work and all that!!!!
I saw Heidi today quickly and I feel badly for the poor girly! She will get bored so if you know her, call her, send her email. Keep our girl happy at home! She has to take it very easy. She's doing fine but she's stuck at home! Home isn't so bad of course. She just can't do much so it will get boring for her. Ups and downs I guess. But it is all worth it! Three months of rest is nothing in the long run and with retrospect eventually on your side! Heidi says hi but didn't feel like a photo today! All she felt like was a shower!

Here is my favorite Post Secret entry this week. I was torn between two so I'll post them both. The first one is uplifting, isn't it! There really are some GREAT secrets -- let's not forget that. Fun adventurous secrets. Things we can cherish and chew on! This Post Secret card captures that getting up to no good thing that can be so fun in life. You have to be a bad girl and bad boy sometimes and break the rules! I love this naked couple doing something they probably aren't allowed to be doing! Breaking the rules!
The below Post Secret entry reveals something sometimes one-sided about friendship! We all need to know what we mean to others sometimes. I'd say let everyone you love know it as often as you can - friends and family! It's so important to say it but also to hear it back sometimes. It gives life meaning!

Sunday 25 June 2006: Sarah welcomes special guests FDW and VD after eating their good food all up and feeding her soul...

Sarah says:
I'd like you to meet FDW and his wife VD. These were some of my first friends in Belgium and my husband's oldest friends. These two and their kids mean THE WORLD to me! They are some of my favorite people and I am so glad to know them! I felt like hell all of Sunday with this big, bad cold and cough of mine. They fed me well and entertained me all day long! FDW solved some of my computer problems! He helped me convert some music files to MP3s and to figure out how to get Greyn's new songs up onto Greyn's new My Space Music page. You are hearing it first right here! You can click on the this link and get to Greyn's My Space page and listen to our 4 new songs if you want! I still have to do a lot of work on the page and FDW says he'll help me with all that too and even Greyn's web page when the time comes because it is pretty out of date by now! The irony in all this is that I started Greyn with FDW the first years I was here in Belgium. Eventually he left the band and has moved onto to other musical projects. I miss being in a band with him! Those were some great, great days. But I sure am totally happy we are still such good friends! Thanks FDW and VD!

Saturday 24 June 2006: Sarah is strung out on the old Cod'ine thanks to her never-ending cough...and her missing Heidi!!!!

Sarah says:
Buffy St. Marie said it best in her song:

Cod'ine - Buffy Sainte-Marie
My belly is a-cravin', I got a shakin' in my head,
I feel like I'm dying, and I wish I was dead.
If I live 'til tomorrow, that'll be a long time,
But I'll reel and I'll fall and I'll rise on cod'ine,
And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time.

Well, when I was a young girl, I learned not to care
For whiskey, and from it I often did swear.
My mother and father said, "Whiskey's a curse."
But the fate of their baby was many times worse,
And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time.

Stay away from the cities; stay away from the town,
Stay away from the man pushin' codeine around,
Stay away from the stores where the remedy is fine,
For better your pain than be caught on cod'ine,
And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time.

You'll forget you're a woman, you'll forget about men,
Try it just once, and you'll try it again.
You'll forget about life, you'll forget about time,
And you'll live off your days as a slave to cod'ine,
And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time.

But, if I die tomorrow, still one thing I've done,
I've heeded the warning that I got when I was young.
My one satisfaction, it comes when I think
That I'm livin' my life without bendin' to drink,
And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time.

And my belly is a-cravin'; I got a shakin' in my head,
I feel like I'm dying, and I wish I was dead.
If I live 'til tomorrow, that'll be a long time,
But I'll reel and I'll fall and I'll die on cod'ine,
And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time.

Friday 23 June 2006: Sarah has a very bad cold but wants to spread sunshine your way anyway and to share her body with you all…

Sarah says:
Can you see it? I am happy! I feel sick as a dog but sunny still! I can see I am losing the weight I need to to have the back operation at the end of the year. Finally all this non-eating and portion-halfing is kicking in! It will still take me months and months to keep on losing kilos but I am on the right track! I have to be! I want this operation to be safe as can be! The less fat in the way, the better and easier for the doctor to cut through my anterior, move all my organs to the side and put the prosthetic disc into my spine. More fat means more difficult entry and higher possibility of cutting arteries. So if I keep on losing weight then the operation and the recovery will perhsp go better than they would otherwise. I have always wanted to be thinner but I guess not enough to do much about it. I love food—eating it and the social aspect of it. I have never been a particularly bad eater or over-eater but still I have always been heavy. It will be great to see myself skinnier! I like it already. It feels good. So that’s why I am sharing not only my face with you today but my body too! Have a great weekend! I’ll add Heidi’s photo once I get one later!!!

Thursday 22 June 2006: Sarah is in a lot of pain today and getting a cough and a cold! Heidi is getting rest at the hospital...

Sarah says:
Man! I have a cough -- a dry one - on top of my dang back. I'm getting run down. Gotta get some rest. Heidi is also getting needed rest. I'll see her again tonight. She has to have bed-rest for the next few months. She's okay. She says hello to you all! Pictures of her will come tomorrow again!

UPDATE:
Saw Heidi -- she even wrote a message for you all but now I can't find it!! I just heard she'll leave the hospital today and basically have bed-rest for the next few months till that little baby comes! Heidi is in good spirits! She says hello (see below photo!) and she says this is the new her! I'll get a photo of her every day that I can!

Wednesday 21 June 2006: Sarah makes a decision about her back jack and is looking forward to finally seeing Heidi tonight! HEIDI SAYS HI!!!!

Sarah says:
Finally I'll see Heidi tonight after work! I miss that girl badly! It has been 5 days now that I haven't seen her. That is a long time for us!!! I will do my best to get a photo of her if she lets me. I'll give an update on her tomorrow if she wants me too and if she has anything to add to these pages.
UPDATE: Saw Heidi and she’s doing okay! She allowed me to take her photo as you can see – even a bellyshot! She says hello!
So after some thinking I finally have some concrete plans concerning my dumb back. I will go ahead with having a prosthetic disc put in my L5-S1 and I'll see what happens. I will have this done in Roeselare - mid- December 2006. I'll be in the hospital for 5 days and home from work recovering for up to 3 months. All the doctors I have seen are slightly concerned that the L4 disc above the really bad one is next in line to cause me problems. When you look azt the MRI done on my spine you can see that there is virtually no disc left in the lowest part of the spine - the L5-S1. That is where I have "degenerative disc disease" also known as "discopathy". Apparently the disc above it is on its way to the same fate. On the MRI you can clearly see that what should be white is turning black, which means the water has left the disc or is leaving the disc. It's not flat and gone yet luckily and may not hurt me for a while but eventually it probably will. If I were to have a lumbar fusion instead -- where they basically put a sort of cage with metal rods and screws in your spine and prevent any movement of that area - well, that could cause the disc above to degenerate even faster. No doctor seems sure that the prosthetic disc will solve my problem but they mostly seem to say begin with a prostehtic disc and if it doesn't work -- well there is always a fusion.

All of it sounds horrid to me. I hate that this is happening to me. I am afraid of such surgery. But I don't know what else to do. I cannot live in all this pain and be stoic by day and almost paralysed by night and early morning. It only gets worse and worse. I want to feel strong and able again. Now I only feel weak and challenged. I still manage to hide it well - but even that is starting to give. Right now it is so early in the morning. I have been up since about 4:30 am in pain. I couldn't stay in bed. It hurts too freaking much to lie down. I don't get any rest. I am amazed I haven't worn myself out yet and that I get through my days as well as I do and just keep going on. It amazes me how very much the body and mind can adapt to whatever comes its way. We all are survivors I guess and what i feel like I am doing half the time is exactly that - surviving. I want more joy - less pain...

It's BELLY SHOT WEDNESDAY!!!! Here Heidi is in all her glory!

Tuesday 20 June 2006: Sarah's back is back in the picture and it has got her feeling down... Heidi is doing okay getting some rest...

Sarah says:
So I have been to two doctor's in two days. One was in Gent - a new one - a 5th opinion!! And one was a doctor i had seen already in Roeselare. I have a lot of thinking to do. It's like the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode in which Larry David isn't sure if he should trust the doctor or the pharmacist. One hand represents the doctor and one the pharmacist and he keeps weighing the two against each other.
How does one make a decision with so many opinions to base it on. It is all very confusing but a decision must be made. If I could, I would really just crawl under a rock for a while and take a long sleeping pill and stop thinking about it all -- but that isn't a choice -- so I guess I have some thinking to do... In the picture above I am thinking hard -- too hard. Makes me nuts.

Monday 19 June: Just Sarah again! Are you bored yet?

Sarah says:
Thi has been a crazy day! No time for anything! News on my back tomorrow I hope as I'll see the doctor tonight. How I look in this ugly photo is how I feel today. I'm no good.

Sunday 18 June 2006: Sarah is lonely without Heidi...Whose little hand is that and what's up with that carrot?

Sarah says:
It just isn't the same without Heidi. I have to go see her soon and snap her mulle! That's my goal. My daughter had to get herself into this photo along with her carrot. Silly girl. I'd rather have Heidi be in the photo than that carrot. Pretend the carrot is Heidi!

It's Father's Day in America today. I found this Post Secret entry this week very moving. It must be hard as a parent to have no connection with your kids. I hope my kid will always want to know me and let me know her. I cannot imagine a fulfilling life without her in it anymore. This Post Secret card made me think of my dad. It sort of sounds like his tone. He has 6 kids (5 sons and one daughter)! That's a lot of children to keep track of. All of our relationships are pretty okay these days as opposed to how they were in the past. I can tell my dad feels happier in his life now and seeks more connection with all of his children and brings us all together when he can. I can't imagine a parent not wanting to see his or her child(ren). Anyway, all of the Post Secret entries this week are ode to Father's. Check them out.

Saturday 17 June 2006: Heidi takes a break for a bit as Hairy Sarah goes at it alone for a while...

Dear Face the Day viewers:
Our Heiditje won't grace these pages with her lovely face for an indefinite period. I'll catch her on camera when I can and share her face and thouts with you but our girl has to rest for a while until her baby comes in a few months. You can be sure I'll be stalking Heidi and that belly of hers every chance I get as I will need my daily dose of her (as all of you do too!).
Heidi sends her hellos and wishes everyone well.
As for me, well let's face it, this site just won't be as fun without Heidi everyday so I'll really try to get her when I can. Not sure how I'll keep up and if this site will morph into something else over time -- but we are not quite ready to throw in the towel yet so keep popping in to see what we are up to. There will be reports on Heidi and updates on whatever I am going through with my back and all. And sometimes there will be blank pages as it may just be too hard and too time-consuming to keep this up every day. But who knows! Let's just wait and see. Maybe Heidi will need some distractions at home over the next few months and will spend each day looking for the perfect photo of herself and uploading it and all that. Maybe not. Tom will tell so stick around for a bit!

Friday 16 June 2006: Heidi and Sarah welcome the sunshine and wish you all a great weekend as they think of AS today on her wedding day...

Heidi says:
I am scared. I need someone to tell me that everything is alright. Somebody who knows what he's talking about. Sleater-Kinney whispers in my ear: "call the doctor!". I might do that.

BY THE WAY, congratulations AS!!!!

Sarah says:
I see it! I am losing weight! You can finally see that! Makes me happy and gay. I am thinking of AS today and wearing white for her as she is getting married! Wish I were there to see her off! Wishing her all the best!!!!! This weekend will be a quiet one I hope. I need some rest. Next week I'll see some doctors and will hopefully make some final choices about back surgery. I am afraid I am starting to go into denial a bit. I DO NOT WANT ANY SURGERY! I am so afraid of it to be perfectly honest. Terribly afraid I will be a back patient for the rest of my life. Everyone has a story about a person they know who had one back surgery after another and feel no better for it! I don't want to be one of those stories. I really don't.

It's BELLYSHOT FRIDAY! Heidi is growing by the minute. What will she look like in a couple of months? Stay tuned to find out!

Thursday 15 June 2006: Heidi and Sarah are boring and bland today with nothing much to tell you... maybe it is due to the DARK and COLD weather!

Heidi says:
All I want to do is switch work with the gardening guy and rake leaves all day...

Sarah says:
Greyn's rehearsal was better last night than last week! Some good ideas thrown around. Our 4 singles are READY now! They will be put on our website and on our My Space soon! I am very happy with them. The music has come a long way and I am proud. I like the heavier stuff but also our song Arnica too, which is slow and moody. If anybody reading this wants to hear our new singles, let me know and I can send them to you as it may take a while to get them uploaded onto our sites. Lots to do today, lots to do. Have a good day!
