Well, I'll take it as a start that I am here being thoughtful for a moment instead of playing a stupid game or laughing at online kittens. But the real progress is that I got my Tree of Life carving hung up in my office today. Right in front of my eyes so that I can see it even while typing. I can already feel it awakening those connections that I ( Read more... )

So I got hoisted on my own feminist petard this morning when the cleaning person arrived at my house. I was expecting a cleaning woman, I got a cleaning man instead. Oops.. look at the stereotype I had in my head. Now granted, I've spoken to three different women setting up the appointment, so I think my expectations of a woman were at least ( Read more... )

This week has been one huge rollercoaster of emotion for me. I was so proud of myself earlier this week for sticking so strictly to the doctor imposed diet. I don't deal well with being told I can't have/do things and I was proud of doing things the right way. Even when I grumped and bitched, I didn't cheat ( Read more... )

I went back to work yesterday and was completely wiped by the time I even got there. It was lovely to see people and then it was time to go home and hit the couch for the rest of the day. So I'm home again today - supposedly gathering my resources and resting/relaxing ( Read more... )

I have a fish tank, a decently large one at 29 gallons. And I have neons, guppies, and some dwarf platys in it. Really not a full tank, I should get a few more fish for it. Now, these are all fish that do not live a particularly long life so I was not shocked to discover a few days ago that one of the guppies is in the process of dying. We're ( Read more... )

This weekend was Yom Kippur, which means that I had three days off instead of just two. A lovely feeling indeed, although it has meant that today was unreasonably hectic. I will get through this.. I do every year.

Saturday and Sunday blend into each other just slightly. Mostly bardicstorm and I played EQ2. Something we've not had a great deal of time ( Read more... )

Wow, it was busy this weekend. My best friend from college is going to be visiting this week so we spent most of this weekend digging out some of the gross from the house. I was relieved to find out that the bedroom was not nearly as disgusting as it originally appeared. And we managed to get three bags of usable, but not comfortable for us, ( Read more... )

Well, I hurt today. But considering how much exercise I did this weekend versus how much I did last weekend - hurt is not really a surprise. I'm so sore today and last night in bed my abs hurt so badly I was attempting not to breathe. That didn't go so well ( Read more... )

Well, no not really, just from the 'net. This was an interesting weekend. Friday night bardicstorm and I played more Wizard101. Such a fun little game ( Read more... )

This cleaning solution was given to me by Star ages ago, and the paper I've written it on is starting to mold so I'm posting it here so I can always find it. She got it from a book - possibly named "Green Home, Green Planet ( Read more... )
