A bit more about me..

Most of my blog posts are written at night, usually just before I fall asleep. I don'tmake a plan or take time to organism a  section of blog posting in advance. I blog when I have something to say, or something on my heart. In some respects, I share a personal journal with the world by writing to my blog.

I realize that some things here might offend people, and some things might shock or annoy... I don't actually care. I don't write the words in this blog for money or entertainment. My hope is that people might find some inspiration and humor, with a little bit of challenge in what I write. I am seldom so serious that I don't see the funny side of things.

I have also shared my blog somewhat with people lately. So I might have people coming here who don't know me from a bar of soap. (Hint: bar of soap is a much smaller thing than me, and often comes in a paper wrapper...)  So I thought I might do a little bit of an introduction.

Hi ....
My name is Jaki. I am a 34 year old stay at home wife. A passionate Christian.
I have multiple medical issues - the biggest of which is Fibromyalgia. I have some mental health issues as well  - PTSD, anxiety, depression.
I write because writing is the best outlet God has given me. I write because stories burn themselves into my brain and if I do not write them down I find it hard to keep that many characters entertained. I write because I love words. I am also very terrible at grammar and spelling; because I write how I talk.

My education, if that is of interest to anyone, though why I have no idea. I graduated high school, and went on to Bible college , where i graduated in 1999 with a degree in Theology. I am pretty sure that I was meant to go through that... though I sometimes wonder if I am making use of the education or not. I am currently studying through Open Uni a degree in Internet communications.

My birthday is Feb 22nd.. all presents and donations welcome! HA!

I am Australian. I try to use Australian spelling for things, however my spell check is convinced I am American and keeps correcting me. I am not in the least bit interested in other people's drama. I don't do gossip. I won't complain about specific people here. I try to only share what is helpful; but I am also at least I attempt to be, respectful.

I don't disrespect other people's religion and I ask all who read my blog to be mindful, and not disrespect my faith. I make no apology for the blatant Christian stuff here, if you know me, you know I don't shove that in anyone's face, or hit anyone over the head. I do lose a lot of enjoyment when people sit around bad mouthing anyone, I also don't enjoy people swearing and carrying on. Words are awesome things... find better ones.

I play World of Warcraft. I play Sims. I also play all kinds of fun games on face-book. I am not in the least bit anti-games but I don't enjoy first person shooters or things like that. 

I draw, paint and do crafty things when I can. It takes a lot of energy though and honestly the fibro has robbed me of that a lot. I don't always have the energy to clean my house either, though that is something I dearly want to do. Clean and organize I mean. Anyhow enough for an introduction. Let me post this.

Oh one more thing... feel free to question, to ask to debate... Im willing to respond. I won't tolerate arguing or personal insults though; just like a good discussion.
