Just Checkin' In!

TA-ing for Intro to Horticulture class tonight, trying to stay awake..I'm sure I'll be wide awake after class. Missing the last 'stickam' chat ever with TipToe..thinking of popping into the chat to see what's going on..I mean it's not like I'm taking notes all over again lol. I am also hungry..cannot wait to get my hands on a veggie pizza...It's been a good week my boyfriend took me on a vacation for my birthday..and showered me with love, gifts, and his amazingness.  Well thought I'd pop in..I'll do a more in depth blog soon, but right now...I'm too tired to do much of anything..hoping I can plan out tomorrow when I get home and get on a game of Skyrim!!! Woooooot!!!!! Maybe hit up my friend to hang out tmw. Who knows!!

Today Today..Oh what a day!

In the Intro to Horticulture night class at the moment, done grading papers and most of the stuff on the board is review..still taking light note though ;) It's been a long and off kind of day. I woke up right on time but traffic made me late to school, should've taken a different route and possibly earlier. Then my usual seat in Hort class was taken so I was shoved in the back between two people and unable to see or even hear that well. I do not like the back..not at all lol. Then Philosophy went great, grabbed gas at Costco, returned my cat's e-collar which freaked her out, til she pulled it off again and again, lol. Then I went to the 99 cent store and bought some salad stuff, then to Target and bought a white board calendar to help better organize myself and my days. Then I went to the post office and they wouldn't let me ship something because it was in a priority mail box..now I understand that..but it was completely covered, they saw me standing in line with this package that had a high MEDIA MAIL bright orange writing on it, thanks to my mother..and didn't say anything the whole twenty odd minutes I stood waiting in line, then they also tell me I can just put it in the mail box if it's media mail...well I can't it needs to be post-marked...so I left quite frustrated and will be returning tomorrow, with my book wrapped in a brown paper bag. Then I went home and spent a little time with my kitten Iris, I feel guilty because I haven't had a lot of time for her nor my Older Cat KeeKee...whom is still bitter with me for letting Iris into her home.
         It's amazing how Iris is super attached to me now, she was waiting for me in my room when I got home this afternoon and slept with me all night curled up in my arms...she was a cuddler before she went into heat, and now that she's fixed it seems that she's even more cuddly. Which brings me to another story..yesterday/Monday morning I woke up at about 10am...then around 10:15 I looked at Iris's wound from being spayed to make sure it was doing okay, since over the weekend it looked like her wound was getting a little puss-ish, well now it was bleeding!!!!! So I called the Spay/Neuter clinic to ask them what to do and they told me to bring her right in and they'd take a look at her..too bad it was about 30 mins out of town..anyways they figured out that she ripped some of her skin out of her stitches...due to her being a kitten and being a spazz..she was trying to run around the first night after she was fixed..drugged and tipsy..she didn't care she wanted to play. So they squeezed the puss out and gave me free antibiotics to battle any oncoming infection. And everyone in the receptionist area all asked me how she was doing, they seemed to care sincerely...it's nice to see.
           Also, Last night was my first night as Official President of the Horticulture club at my college and everything went great! I was nervous but speech class paid off after all and I fit right up there. Everyone was encouraging and nice, all were happy to see a young vibrant face as their President, and someone even said I follower complete protocol which never happens..from what they say,,anyways I'm just glad it went so well, everyone seems to like me or is okay with me being their President and happy that I am getting so involved...and I am happy with it too!!! So exciting! I just love to be able to help :}
         So all in all today's been a pretty good day..although it's been an off day and I just found out others have been feeling the off-ness too..maybe it;s something with the stars or the planets..I should look it up, but I'm glad it's not just me!!!

What a wonderful world.

Waiting for Intro to Horticulture to start, watching people file in one by one. I'm honestly exhausted at this point, but doin' good. I have gotten most of the items I need to start my juice detox. Sadly I found out that all of our local farmers markets are closed due to winter. Le sigh. So I had to buy from FoodMaxx..then I'm checking Raileys and Walmart for Celery due to it being super pricey at FM. Increasing my water intake, decreasing my meat, dairy and sugar intake before the detox, then finally the caffeine  today is my last day that I am allowing myself to have caffeine  Going to be completely on natural juices, teas, Sol'e and a veggie broth for a week to help out my fibromyalgia and for my general health.

Super excited..getting more meditating done, tuning in with the cycles of the earth, about to cleanse my self physically, spiritually, and mentally, cleaning out my room/organizing, finishing my shadow work, and really getting things started with a bang this year already.

I am so happy, and proud of myself..getting up at 6am and sleeping at 10-10:30 every night with insomnia is amazing...so happy and so lucky. I am grateful for living, breathing, waking up, driving, and learning. For the god and goddess, for plants, and for things I am going to be and do for the world.

Change

Sitting in the introduction to Horticulture class as a TA. It's interesting since it's one of my college's secondary colleges in another town, I've never been here, everything's so new. I'm excited to be apart of this class again, I get to review it all over. I'm going to spend a lot of time studying the insects, and the binomial names this semester. My first day has been amazing! I have an awesome class in the morning, we're going to make pressed plant encyclopedias, and I'm going to use the system to make an herbal reference. In my second class, Philosophy my professor is really awesome..totally hippie, totally chill, totally cool..he even curses. I think it's going to be mind blowing, to say the least. There are a lot of interesting people that are in this class, a lot more younger individuals than I am used to, I'm used to a whole bunch of old folks..I love old folks..but this is going to be interesting..so nice to see people my age interested in gardening..pretty shweet. ;) Alright..time to start paying some attention and get focused before class starts..I'm excited..and so excited to see so many curious and excited faces.

What a successful day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's been a looong day I must say. My body is weary and achy from the lack of a full 8 hrs rest and a full busy day, some requiring hands on work, and being out in the cold. But I am super proud of myself, I woke up at 6:13 am, I also went to bed around 12:30 am and fell asleep at about 1 am. I'm so proud of myself, I am a huge insomniac. The reason I woke up so early this morning was to take my new kitty out of town to get spayed, vaccinated, and micro-chipped. The hardest part was leaving her there for 7 hrs and going back home. But I used the worry for my baby to get things I needed to done. I am attempting to finish up my room, in getting it organized just the way I want it to be so I can work out of it better. Get my shop things done and such..and not be distracted by the clutter. I tell ya my room's taken a beating this holiday vacation and not just from myself. Animals...omg..animals....my boyfriend's beagle/my baby peed on my carpet, dug it up, and my new kitty made a hole in it, and my older cat peed everywhere in the house...so it's been quite a vacation. I am blessed with so many beings to love though, even though they drive me nuts..I really wouldn't have it another way if it meant losing them. So, I'll be nurturing my darling kitten back to health, her name is Iris, my older girl is KeeKee and the beagle is Princess (yes she lives up to her name, no my boyfriend and I didn't name her).
Anyways...it's been a great day, vacuumed my floor, cleaned the cat box, made the bed, gathered laundry together, removed 3 clothing items from my dresser and donated them, organized my horticulture binder, cleaned the dishes, got Iris fixed, drove on a scary road to get her there and back..I'm telling you, people are frickin' crazy! So many people are just vrooming everywhere  Cutting people off, trying to pass people, driving on people's ass's. It was horrible..but it was good practice for myself to stay alert and to keep my inner peace going, that and a cat that won't stop meowing the whole way there, haha.
I am finishing up old goals from last year and making room for the new, I can't wait. Today is also going to help with tomorrow, since I have to get up at 6 am every tues/thurs for class...but it's horticulture class so that's okay. Robert has been helping me get up in the morning this past week, so it's been getting easier..even though I don't want to..I like the night..and I am also very stubborn..but he is very patient.
Well, My tummy is rumbling, and so is Iris's, she hasn't ate since 9pm last night, I am just now able to feed her..she's starting to get tired..that's good because I am too. We have both had a long day. I'm off to go prepare her some kitty food, and me some spaghetti.
Love,
     SunShine ;)

Another day

It's been a while since I have been on this blog, it is one that is hardly touched and I feel I can use it for my writing and updates on my shop. I am currently sitting  on my boyfriend Robert's bed listening to him play Dota 2 and my pet beagle snore. I just finished with a sacred geometry meditation, it was awesome. I have been working with the "sacred g" print outs from the www.sacredgeometry.com website, which were free...lovely meditation and information..I am starting to work with it more now, super excited!!  About to do a little yoga and maybe go walk the dog (Princess, and yes she lives up to her name very well.) if Robert doesn't. I don't mind since I enjoy walking, it calms and relaxes me. Then tonight we are going to hang out with Robert's cousin and her boyfriend, it should be fun..we are going to the Pool Hall in town, then probably come back and hang out at his house. I really just want to relax but...oh well...off to go be productive....and maybe find some coffee...mm...yess...coffeeeeee sounds nice.
