Spring Semester

I turned in my Luke homework, a poem, process notes and a photo of the Madonna and Child embroidery.  Waiting to hear back.  Shadow Work looks like it's going to be a good class.  I'm tempted to sign up for another class, but I guess I'll wait until I finish New Testament class.  I just have my homework for John to do now.  I read about half the Gospel today.  I'm also taking Ethics and Professional Practice for Divination and the Runes Practicum, but those won't start for awhile. 

I just want to learn everything!  I know I have to pace myself though.  If I take too many classes I get bogged down.  If I do too many go at your own pace classes I don't get much done either.  I've been looking into writing classes, but I'll have to take those in between semesters.  I'm considering doing some more Modern Rituals homework.  I've let that slide over the past year or so.  So not really sure if I should get back into that or not.  I just got stuck at a certain point.  Happens!

St. Patrick's Day

I already turned in part of the Shadow Work homework.  I'm thinking that I'm really going to like that class.  Finished the embroidery for Luke, but stuck for a short story idea based on that particular Gospel. 

It's St. Paddy's Day!  Not feeling so hot.  Stopped raining for awhile at least.  Jean Jeanie's birthday is today.  Her son is visiting from Wyoming.  Will probably spend some time with her tomorrow.  Waiting to hear back from Zinnia about the bake sale and youth group.  I'm having a really busy week.  Posted some Rune information on the Divination group.  I'm getting to be a faster typist.  Finally!

Coffee Fueled

I realize I haven't been blogging very much lately, well, at all.  Tonight I'm fueled by caffeine.  At McDonald's today I drank a tall iced coffee. Very strong, but tasty.  I don't usually have any caffeine at all, so I will probably be up late tonight.  Going through a stressful time right now.  The details won't make anyone feel any better, so I'll keep them to myself. 

I bought some cheap computer speakers today.  They seem to work pretty good so far.  I've been playing on the creativity website where I hang out.  Will probably go back and post some more there tonight. 

Grad school starts in a couple weeks.  I'm waiting to get some books in the mail.  Really looking forward to Spring semester.  I'm in a pretty good mood, but like I said, it's probably a caffeine high.  Better get better at turning homework in on time.

Not making much progress on the Luke gospel homework.  I'm almost finished with the Madonna and Child embroidery.  Can't seem to buckle down and do the reading.  I'm hoping to finish the reading and the writing by the time school starts.  Then all I'll have is John to do.

Well, that's all for now.

Spring Semester Registration

Making progress!  I've turned in homework for Matthew and Mark for New Testament class.  I'm embroidering an apron with religious symbols and words for the craft part of my NT homework.  I'm going to give it to Zinnia for her birthday in early fall.  I registered for my Spring classes already.  I'm taking Ethics and Professional Practice, Divination Practicum (Runes) and Shadow Work, which is a Shamanism class, the book looks good for that one.  Plus another student at school who got her degree already is teaching it.  I'm so competitive.  OK, I'm not that competitive. I'm doing so much independent work, I feel like I'm just competing against myself most of the time. I'm sure Ruby knows her stuff!

I'm still waiting to hear about Peer Counseling Training.  There's a class coming up.

Things at home are improving.  I'm getting along better with my family.  I wish I saw more of Star.  She's got a new life now with her boyfriend, Yeti.  He is tall!  :) 

Frustrated

I had a moody, uncomfortable day today.  My family is having some serious financial problems.  I guess that makes us like millions of other Americans.  I've been so irritable today.  It's incredible.  Well, the day didn't start out too good.  In other news...  I tried to go buy embroidery floss today and yesterday, but the quilt shop was closed.  I'm pretty frustrated.  I'll just have to stop by there tomorrow.  The speakers that came with my receiver didn't work when I tried to hook it up again, so I ended up plugging the computer speakers into the headphone jack.  I either need to get another set of computer speakers or get the right ones to work.  My brother, Jed, is going to help me with that tomorrow. 

Award Season

It's award season again.  I've been inviting some friends over to see Oscar noms from Netflix.  I saw The Black Swan with Jean Jeanie last week.  I thought it was really good.  Not so sure about all the fantasy elements.  I think I'll have another Oscar Party with ballots and prizes.  I'm waiting for my transcript from Nature U. to get uploaded.  I'm sure my grades will be fine.  I just want some closure on the semester.  Fall 2010 semester was nearly a disaster as I was moving during part of it and took on too many classes at first.  Life is going pretty good.  I ordered this book, Order From Chaos, and it is helping me get organized, potentially.  So I'm trying this new system.  I think I'll give the book to my Pastor, as she has problems staying on top of things too.  That was one of her goals, better scheduling.  We are doing goals/resolutions in the adult youth group at church.  My idea.  Of course!  Well, I have blogging on my to-do list for today.  Guess I should put it on other days as well.  All for now!

Moved

I'm moved into the new house with my Mom and brother. Reggie and Donnie are here eating hot dogs and talking to Mom.  They are supposed to move more stuff and put some stuff up on the walls for Mom.  I'm kinda stressed, but not as bad as I was.  I've been taking naps every day and getting good sleep at night.  Except the cats got me up at 4:30am one morning and 5:30am today. They are going to be in the house for awhile before we let them outside. My room is a disaster.  I brought up a lot of clothes.  I've been sorting them out.  I got to call Jean Jeanie soon and see if she will come over tomorrow.  I have an extension on my homework, thank goodness!  All for now.
