Happy Christmas.
I will strive not to be a humbug today. This is the first Christmas my son hasn't been home. Ari and I are rather grinchy I suppose. We celebrated the solstice ...thats always fun. We are going to miss the long nights. |

Another lovely day. Its so quiet here these days. The days flow into each other so seamlessly. My Ari is so calm and centered these days. The most beautiful crescent moon has been hanging low in the sky these past few nights. I would love to be able to lay and watch the stars move across the sky but am far too close to the city for that. I missed the meteor showers again this year. I am very happy in this home but there are things you have to give up. Someday... Current Music: Joanna Newsom |

Did you miss me?
..or even notice I've been gone? I spent the summer visiting my parents. They have dial-up so I spent precious little time using the computer. Now I'm back at work and very busy. I have almost one hundred knitters this year. I've divided them up into four groups. They are happy so I am happy. My dear son has gone off into the world. I give it six months. He has found gainful employment and seems to be doing well. I miss him. Ari is still sleeping. He has grown his beautiful black hair back out. He will probably be whining for me to cut it off anyday now since I like it so much. I think he is much better. He is going through a rough patch health wise. His mental state is much improved. I haven't threatened to smother him with a sofa cushion in ..oh ages now. And me?...well. Fine as can be expected I suppose. Feeling rather lonely and blue. Still can't get quite motivated to do any housework. Not really interested in self improvement things like a haircut or new clothes. Didnt do Halloween this year..that is a shocking if you know me. Trying to get some inspiration to draw or paint or..something. Still knitting sporadically. Don't know what will snap me out of this funk. Perhaps I should hook myself up the car battery for a little jolt. A Current Music: a little bach |

I'm alive
Raining in Detroit. Watching football. Knitting a Ravenclaw sweater for Ari. Listening to Etta. Fuzzy pussycat trolling for treats. Could be worse. |

In which I moan as well as whine..in a sweet musical fashion...
Today I shall endeavor to better my mood and dwellings. There are mountains of laundry to wash, fold, iron, thow out, mend...I'm for chucking it all out and beginning again. I shall have one of the house elves haul most of it to the boot of the car take away to the charity shops. This week I SHALL take pictures. Lot and lots of pictury goodness. I've promised so many times to do this but this time I shall. My beautiful Ari with his gorgeous long locks..is shorn. He whinged and complained about hating his hair long even though it was glorious and long and black...so I cut it. I didn't weep but easily could have. Now he has a nice short fluffly little do and is happy. Next he will be wanting blue contacts to cover his beautiful black eyes...and insta-tan orange crap for his lily white skin..shudder shudder. Why does he want to change the things I love about him. Okay its just hair..I'll stop now. I hate spring. Current Mood: PissyCurrent Music: Love and Happiness~ The Rev Al Green |

Ive been madly knitting. I've started my first slytherin scarf. Going very quickly and have finished half. Purchased the yarn for a school sweater. Can't wait to get started. Haven't taken any pics. Everything is fine. Really. |

It's a little known fact that larks are pathologically depressed, with a high suicide rate Squid can commit suicide by eating their own tentacles Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history. Spades - King David, Clubs - Alexander the Great, Hearts - Charlemagne, and Diamonds - Julius Caesar. Nutmeg is extremely poisonous if injected intravenously At President Andrew Jackson's funeral in 1845 his pet parrot was removed for swearing. Laughing lowers levels of stress hormones and strengthens the immune system. Six-year-olds laugh an average of 300 times a day. Adults only laugh 15 to 100 times a day. |

Today was much better. Tonight I hope to actually sleep well. My knitting class was overflowing today. I had three more boys show up. I think I had forty knitters in all today. I've been knitting madly in all my spare time. I should be drawing..I should be drawing. I need another ten days off from work. Current Music: Air~Playground Love |

Craptastic Day
Dear GOD today was lousy. That I have survived and have killed no one is the highlight. I woke up late. I had only fifteen minutes to get out the door for work..I looked LOVELY...always a good start. The Evil Ari, who has been in bed with a pillow on his head since friday informed me that he is never getting up again. He has to deal with the IRS...so he is shutting down apparently. My Ari is insane by the way..for those of you who don't know me. He doesnt leave the house..ever. He will walk to the mailbox once a week, in the dark..thats it. He does webwork at home, sometimes. He mostly whines. I may smother him with a sofa cushion soon. Arrived at work..on time. I forgot my meds. Shit...nothing I could do about that. But I cant concentrate, my joints are stiff and I feel like my head is in a fog all day. I was on my feet and lecturing most of the day. I dont think I was able to sit more than a fifteen minute period all day. whine whine whine. Had to go make groceries after work. I HATE shopping. All types...seriously..I HATE SHOPPING. My ungrateful child, who was still in bed sleeping, grumbled and whined about having to get up and carry it all in. I didnt beat him to death with a broom handle..but I may. Well now that I've whinged about it..it doesnt seem so bad. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I need more drugs. I need a stiff drink. |

I love quiet saturday mornings. Everyone is asleep except for Amelia but pussycats are good company. I thought the workweek would never end. My students were loud this week. I think its five weeks until the next break period. I am so longing for summer. Knitting today on the lavender shawl. I want it to be warm and its a fine thread so I'm doing a basketweave. Its mindless work. I only like to have one project going at a time that requires brain power. I need to do some drawing tomorrow. I need to list some auctions and generate a little income. I sold off the last of my little witches a while back. I have fairy sketches laying about that need finishing. OOOh I did some clay heads for dolls and two full pieces a couple of weeks ago. The bisque came out beautifully! I need to decide if I'm going to paint or glaze them. I may make molds of three of them. I was quite pleased! I need to get the damned camera out tomorrow and take and post pictures. I've been promising people for weeks and weeks. |

Not feeling very well today. Forgot to take my crazy pills two days running. Took everything I'm suppose to today and have that sick, I took a buttload of pills so now im going to die, feeling. Being crazy, chronically ill and crabby really takes it out of you. ( For more and exciting whinging clicky clicky ) Current Mood:  nauseatedCurrent Music: When I am Queen ~ Jack Off Jill |
