Whah? She's Actually Writing In Her Journal?

[1trueearthmama]

Ok, so here's the deal. I am going to post once a week if it kills me, and I am going to do so in a quasi orderly manner. That's the only way I actually get things accomplished. Consider this a primer for anyone who doesn't really know me, doesn't know me well, or hasn't been in-touch with me recently. Here are some tags or terms you might see, and their explanations. Arcana Soaps, Possets Perfumes, Haunt Handcrafted Soaps, Blood Drop Perfumes, Cobalt Blends, Black Phoenix Alchemy Labs, Magic Hands Workshop, Villainess Soaps, The Body Bakery, Wild Ivy, Wiggle, Bella Lucce, and Scentastics are all different makers of perfume oils, body scrubs, bar soap, body butter, lip balm, etc that I follow avidly and spend waaaaaaaaay too much money on. The Seeing Eye, Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation, Guide Dogs of the Desert, Guide Dogs of America, Guiding Eyes for the Blind, The Guide Dog Foundation, Upstate Guide Dog Association, Freedom Guide Dogs, Southeastern Guide Dogs and Guide Dogs for the Blind are all guide dog schools in the United States that I either love or love to bitch about, depending on the school in question, and enjoy reading both news updates and gosip about. Co-sleeping, bed-sharing, cloth diapering, baby-wearing, elimination communication, attachment parenting, Waldorf education, Reggio Ammilia method, montosaurie education, breastfeeding, La Leche League or La Leche League International, Attachment Parenting International, The Natural Child Project, home-schooling, unschooling, infant led weening, and child centered learning are all terms, practices and organizations related to Attachment Parenting, all of which I am interested in and many of which I practice or am involved with at present. ABVI or the Association for the Blind and Visually Impared, The Zone or The Zone BBS, The Lion's Club, Camp Abilities, Camp Smile, Rotery Sunshine Camp, NIB or National Industries for the Blind and the Batavia School for the Blind are all prime suspects on my list of blindness related organizations that feature frequently in my "Need to bitch" sessions. Other organizations like The Adirondack Experience through the Saint Fransis Acadamy, CBVH or the Comission for the blind and Visually Handicapped, ACB or the American Counsil of the Blind and NFB or the National Federation of the Blind are all blindness related organizations that might be on my ok list or on my shit list depending on the day and the issue under discussion. AKC or the American Kennel Club, CFA or the Cat Fancier's Association, Anamal Planet, Merekat Manner, the Puppies Behind Bars program, the Bright Star German Shepherd Rescue, "It's Me or the Dog," "Breed All About It," "Dogs 101," "Cats 101," "Growing Up...," and "That's My Baby
" are all organizations, television programs or other topics related to my love of most animals and respect for all animals. AMA or American Music Abroad, RBTL or the Rochester Broadway Theatre League, NYSSSA or the New York State Summer School for the Arts, The Eastman Community Music School or ECMS, The Eastman School of Music, The Crane School of Music at SUNYn Potsdam and the RPO or Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra are all musically related organizations or schools that I have participated in or attended in the past or frequent on a regular basis. I will edit this later and add more. I will also spell-check at that time, but now, it's off to do a sink-full of dishes and take a shower.
