Back to my Happy, Narcisstic Self...

Ahh, feeling much better and far more cynical...that's more like it. Must have been a weak moment.

In a Bad Place

Oh indeed. The D-man has left for a trip to Germany and I have been plagued by ill-emotions and feelings of doom...mostly doom to what has been and change on the horizon. Once I figured that out I started to feel better, but after looking at a tarot spread or three, I am quite unsure of what is happening to me, our relationship, and our immediate horizon. I have a horrible feeling in my stomach and feel like having a good cry, which I no doubt will...and soon.

Please let these feelings be of unease about change. I am coming to the realization that my baby-days are over (no more of my own..) and that I need to start thinking about earning money. But how? I love babies. I really enjoy working with them, teaching them, being a part of their lives. And giving them back to their parents. Hooray! I can do that. I am not sure that I need another of my own. Okay. That's checked off. Babies are an option...I could do day-care?

Massage? Trained in it. Have agreed (again...) to get my license and go back to it. Okay. Checked off.

Writing? Takes a lot of work without kids around to focus. Okay.

Online? Would love to write and have advertisers hit me up with offers ... still working on that. To the end that I have created a whole bunch of Funkee Mommee blogs...but have to figure out how to make them appropriate to the needs of the Internet.

Ahh... Feeling better, now, thanks.

Funkee Mommee Writes

Here is a great writing exercise...describe a smell

http://www.wikihow.com/Describe-a-Smell

It certainly has practical applications - type of smoke or gas smells as you are calling the Fire Department. But as a writer, trying to evoke a particular sensation is a rather difficult proposition. I'll be back after I have played with this idea some more...I have set out to describe 3 different smells with the hope that I can convey the sensations.

Well, I've gone and done it again...

I signed up for not one, but two yarn events (well, same event, two categories). Where do I think I will find time to knit not only a pair of socks, but a lace scarf??

That the HECK was I thinking?

I had a dream about not receiving my dossier and then what should come in my email today? Yup. The dossier. Two separate peeps with a variety of knitting desire and loves. Which is good, provided I can knit my way out of this...aieee!

Am I supposed to be buying new yarn for this??

Have I ever mentioned that I need to be told twice??

piercings & hair dye

I got my nose pierced! Whoo hoo! On friday I gave myself a cranberry red set of streaks and on sunday had a beautiful, strange man stick a needle through my nose. Ahhh, I love America!
