Another Day in Paradise

I'm tired, cranky, and my head hurts. Another day in paradise! I just took a shower. I'm working on designing some new Dutch Embroidery bookmarks, coffee themed. I already picked out the colors of thread and paper. I'm going to cut the paper out first, instead of embroidering first. That should make things easier. I have a bunch of homework to do too. I'm waiting for my hair to dry, then I'm going to drive to the PO and the quilt shop to pick up more DMC floss. That's for another project. Mom is coming over for bulgogi burgers tonight. I don't think my brother is coming over, hockey playoffs. In May! I had a really frustrating day yesterday, doing research. I think I took two naps. My tummy was upset too. Isn't it great when you feel better, but not that better? Rar! Dinosaur noises. All for now! bye

Zombieland

I didn't do a whole lot today. Didn't feel good and no energy. Made chili dogs for dinner, my brother came over and we watched Zombieland. Entertaining, but unrealistic, even for a zombie movie. I did some embroidery on a tote bag, a drum kit. Didn't finish it though. About 11pm I got a surge of energy, Moon in Scorpio?, anyway I started organizing and planning. It doesn't matter if my planning doesn't work out quite the way I envision, it makes me feel better. A certain friend is being more unreliable than usual. Amazing! I'm probably going to be pretty busy tomorrow if I have any energy at all. This is the last week for Runes 4. I also have a paper due for Ancient Rites, on Friday. I need to write the next proposal for Prehistory. Why aren't I tired? It's almost 12:30am. Well, I'm a little tired, but not enough to go to bed. Big sigh! bye

Classic Coral Creme

I'm painting my nails and not doing my homework. I've had two naps today. I think I'm burned out on all the extra stuff I've been doing, emotionally. I feel bad, but I think I'll have to turn in my work tomorrow. We'll see. Why do they call this nail polish a creme when it has all these sparkles in it? I've been baking. I made a lemon cake that is not as lemony as I thought it would be. Gonna bake some more tomorrow. I went swimming today, not laps or anything, just splashing around and then sitting in the hot tub. I love that hot tub! Not much else going on. I drove my car down to the jetty yesterday and played with the lights and the wipers and things. I even went through the roundabout. Easy peasy lemon squeasy! Star did not come out this weekend. Don't know if I'll see her on Saturday or Sunday or not. Big sigh... I finished another embroidery project the other day. I'll be sending off my goddess figurines. Won't that be something to get in the mail? Hee hee! bye

Charming Rose Creme

I took a long nap after dinner so I'm up. Waiting for brownies to cool off enough to eat. Made spaghetti sauce last night and had the family over for dinner. I'm doing pretty good this morning. Waiting on insurance for the car. I plan to go swimming much more than I have been. Kind of stressed out lately. Lots of changes afoot. Not sure how I feel about that. Need to pay bills and get the mail today too. Got a manicure today, but just changed the polish. Light blue is OK, but... Painted my toes too. I hope I can see U2 this summer, but that's unlikely. Sigh. I have a lot to be grateful for. I know that much. Meandering blog today. :) bye

Car

I got a car! I'm so thrilled! I can't sleep, too excited. :)

bye

OMG

Well, I've had a busy week. I finished my goddess sculptures and poem for Prehistory and turned that in. Yay! I did a paper for Ancient Rites and am still working on Runes 4. I am doing publicity for a lady. Mostly research, looking up addresses on the internet. I think I am hired for the summer to do baking, decorating cookies and possibly barista(ing). I need to get some good shoes! That just occurred to me. I also need to get a car. I haven't driven in a long time. I'm going a little crazy right now. This is a lot of stress for me. And I haven't even started yet. OMG. What have I gotten myself into? All for now! bye

Mother's Day

Another busy week. I managed to reschedule my job counseling appt.s to the same day the Employment Support Group is on. I also have my dentist appt. next week on the same day. That's going to be one long day. I wonder if bad luck is catching. I wonder about stuff like that. Or good luck too. I turned in the Runes 4 homework today. I go deep when I do readings. I mean, I really have to concentrate to do these readings. I'm still learning. Mother's Day is Sunday. I didn't really get my mom anything, just some chocolate. Me and my brother are going to make her lemon bars too. I'm on a new schedule, still getting used to it. Star's computer is screwing up, so she's upset about that. Don't blame her for that. I finished writing my poems for the April PAD, just have to type them up. OK, so I'm a little late! :) Got my Divination group moved to Google Groups. It's different, you get emails when someone posts a comment. But it's not as confusing as Yahoo Groups. I could never get the hang of that one. Listening to Bob Seger on Last.FM, "Turn the Page". I like the Metallica version better, like both of them actually. I'm so glad I got my appt.s on the same day. Two days in town was really messing with me. All for today! bye

For Now

Well, I decided to tackle the Windows Media Player problem(s). One is that now it rips CDs very very slowly, about a minute per track. So that's about 20 minutes per CD. Haven't figured out how to fix that. The major problem is that I can't burn CDs. No CD Drive detected. Well, supposedly I went into the registry and fixed that. Tell Microsoft! It used to work nicely. I think that was in December. I'm ripping my copy of Material Issue's "International Pop Overthrow". Before that it was "Absolutely ABC".
