What I did on my summer vacation

I had planned on leaving tomorrow for 4 days in the woods in Canada with a bunch of strangers. After reading their email list archives and getting some odd emails from some participants, I decided that I didn’t really want to go.  I will miss the opportunity to hang out at a lake in the woods but the other, not so much.  *sigh*  Must get out of town at some point.

Last week was a bit odd for me.  As expected but odd to be in it.  Lots of down time, napping, not getting much done.  With the exception of the slight twitterpation of potential love interest, it was a bit off.  Continue reading

Bambooooooo!

oh boy oh boy.

My new Bamboo just arrived.  Sure, I do bamboo.  If I owned my own home and was getting new floors, they’d be bamboo.  I just bought four yards of gorgeous pink bamboo cloth, soft as feathers.  I replaced all my plastic cutting boards with bamboo.  But this? The new Bamboo?

Bamboo Fun

 I’m so very excited.  I also got a new printer that is also a copier and a scanner.  Didn’t go for the fax and I might regret that but for $80 I couldn’t pass it up.

I will be plugging in my new toys to my other new toy and let you know how it goes.

Update: Boy do I have a lot of practicing to do.  I’m a dork with the pen.  Looks like a 4th grader…

As I’ve mentioned before, the ex, Narcissus, got mad at me recently.  Because I got mad at him.  This is why I got mad at him…  (I feel perfectly legit in posting this since not only did Narcissus ask this series of questions in front of several of our dear friends who knew us as a couple and who know of the breakup,  some of them know my side even, but he did so on tape which was sent around the world to the subscribers of the monthly Jeshua transcripts.  And he got mad at me for writing about him anonymously in my blog, he was worried that folks would think badly of him.  I assure you Narcissus, I don’t need to do a thing for you to look bad, you did that well enough on your own.  In this case neither he nor I are anonymous.  And because of this last bit?  I care no more about his reputation in my blog. Smote him. Smote his ass. If someone reading this actually knows who he is they can choose how they want to feel about it all but it is not my problem. Why? Because we established recently the readers of my blog are intelligent beings who are adult enough to make up their own minds about anything I write.)

Jeshua: Beloved songbird, how are you in this evening?

Narcissus: I’m pretty good (Good. What would you speak of?) I’m trying to figure out exactly how to ask, or actually, I’m trying to figure out what I actually want to know (That is very good to have some clarity there; it does help) There’s been something that’s kind of confused me for a number of years with a relationship. I’ve got a friend that I’ve kind of off and on had feelings for, kind of had a crush and that kind of thing, but she’s married, and so I haven’t and I won’t do anything to pursue that, but I actually had a tarot reading about it yesterday and that cleared up quite a few things. But I was just wondering what the connection between us is, where it comes from, and like who we’ve been in past lives and stuff; it’s obvious we have Continue reading

The countdown commences…

13.5 days to go…

I had a pretty good 4th. I always spend time on the 4th with sober friends. Every year they go to the rez and get terribly illegal fireworks and this year was stupendous. As Pam says, we blow shit up. And so we do. Lots of good food, good conversation, a good time was had by all.

I had Saturday and Sunday all to myself. I bought a couple books with some of my birthday money from my folks, that was nice. Books I’ve been looking at for some time.

A Guide to Green Housekeeping
Ribbon Embroidery and Stumpwork
One Skein

I played with felt and faux suede, read, napped, gardened (albeit a shabby job, much work left to be done here), all in all a peaceful time. I did some cooking, some cleaning, some drooling over cookbooks.
