End of last week - as I pulled into the parking lot at school - I saw - perched on the fence proudly - a robin. Robins are always the first sign of spring around here in the Great White North. BUT it's still January!!!
When I repeated the story to some of my staff - one of them reported that her 'doves' were back under her bedroom window - cooing to her.
Last night I snuggled in morningstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500052225655763353noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-55655134480946392722012-01-25T10:39:00.001-05:002012-01-25T10:40:48.094-05:00Bloopers.......I am always amazed at how many 'typos' and/or poor grammar people use when writing emails/blogs/posts etc. I realize this is a time of fast, faster, fastest..... but honestly it bugs me.... or it bugs the English teacher in me..

ok so last weekend was devoted to all things vanilla............ i was sulky and cranky cause as much as vanilla is a large part of everyone's life - i do need some kink thrown in for good measure.......... NEED!!! i say...really truly need.
Add to my miserable state last weekend the fact that this weekend isn't looking any kinkier and it down right sent me off on a cranky tangent.

I did manage to get my "to do" list completed. BUT it was boring..... very very boring.
That is not to say I didn't get an offer for a spanking....... W had sent me an email asking when I thought I would be finished all the chores on Sunday "by noon??" he asked.

I have exactly 7 minutes till I have to leave to go back to work (don't even ask why only 7 minutes it would take too long to explain)
So I decided to see if I could bang out a blog entry in 7 minutes or less....
I start work real early - REAL early!!! Like before the sun is up these days.... and usually when I arrive the school is virtually empty.
This morning I made a 'pit stop' in the morningstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500052225655763353noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-60720231445622605722012-01-19T05:26:00.000-05:002012-01-19T05:26:12.128-05:00EnoughOk .. so we didn't have snow (well not much) for Christmas. None for New Year's.
Winter arrived basically a week ago.
And after a week I can honestly say I am done... like dinner. I am tired of shoveling .. I am tired of scraping ice .. I am tired of being cold.
This is what I think of winter.........
Spring can come any time now......

Saturday - during one of the play sessions - W gave me a mind blowing orgasm. Ok ok so most of my orgasms are mind blowing - I think because I have reached the point in my life where every orgasm is a blessing - ya know the ability to have orgasms could dry up and blow away - I am of that age.................

I have always prided myself on good budgeting skills. For obvious reasons I have never had a bookkeeping program - but I have a running budget in my head...... simple budget - money in and money out.
Oh I am not saying I haven't had times of overspending - I have! But never to any great extreme.

I have had a whole mess of time on my hands this week - not always a good thing - cause when I have time on my hands I tend to think........ no, more than think.. I tend to brood.
And there is little or no rhyme or reason to my thoughts.. they just move from one thing to another............. and amongst all this thinking there is this kernel - this wee tiny kernel of a thought that keeps morningstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500052225655763353noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-28882320497333270682012-01-05T04:51:00.001-05:002012-01-05T05:01:20.652-05:00The Never-ending Cold
When you are blessed with being the last one to catch the infamous cold bug there are some advantages.......... mostly I knew that it was gonna last a minimum of 3 weeks and that antibiotics don't seem to have any bearing on it........ it's a virus folks and only bacteria is helped by antibiotics !!!

cause that's kinda where I am feeling I am .... caught between a rock and a hard place.
And I know some of these mixed feelings may be honestly caused by the bug I still have.. it makes me tired and weak ... and emotional...........

Please note: the custard powder is Bird's Custard - and I can buy it up here in the Great White North at the grocery store. I do not know if the french vanilla instant pudding mix would work as a substitute as suggested in the comment section yesterday. BUT I do thank BlaznScarlet for the urls for recipes and the custard powder.

Yesterday was an 'easy' day.
I DID get my hair cut -
I went from pretty much this..................
To this.................... (though I didn't go blonde)
I DID pick up the groceries that I need for the Christmas feasts -
I DID remember to charge the battery for my camera -
I EVEN remembered to charge my cell phone (though that was a day late and after the phone died)

I was the busy Christmas bee this weekend...
I was up at the crack of dawn Saturday - stripped the bed linens, grabbed the laundry and headed downstairs.
I threw the first load of laundry in and then got started on the magical chore of turning a cupboard full of baking ingredients into Christmas treats.

The reindeer stand forlornly outside with their limp red ribbons, the rain is falling yet again. The night skies have been so foggy or smoggy - there have been no bright stars shining. The Christmas Carols on the radio sound tinny and out of tune.

Well this past week has been in many ways a tough blow to my self esteem. I don't like to make mistakes - I don't like to NOT be able to do something - to grasp something. I most certainly don't like to admit I have done things wrong - made mistakes.
We are supposed to learn from our mistakes and move forward - hopefully not making the same mistakes twice.

I love Christmas - which is no secret...what is a well kept secret is.. I HATE wrapping Christmas gifts. I really really do!!!
Mostly I think because of all the mess. There are all the rolls of paper, the tape, the ribbons, the scissors.

Today is the official start of my Christmas season. My grandkids come today to "help granny" decorate the house.
This tradition started - ummmmmmmmm - I guess it must be at least 9 years ago when eldest grandson was only a baby - and mom and dad didn't seem to have 2 minutes to spare for themselves.

I had a rather irate mother come in to see me the other night. She explained that one of my educators had critiqued her daughter's artwork - had said it wasn't very good - that she had used too many sparkles.
Now my first thought was "how in god's name do you use too many sparkles?? One can never have too many sparkles!!!" I asked the mother (and subsequently the daughter) for details.

I know even the hardest of heart Grinches love the music at Christmas. There is an American radio station that starts playing Christmas music the day after Thanksgiving. W found it a few years ago - I remember being surprised because most Canadian stations (well the ones I listened to ) didn't start until at least December 1st.

There is a HUGE event coming to the Great White North next weekend... Torture Garden.
When I first heard the hype - and the name of the event - TORTURE Garden - I was curious. It seemed to me it might be something fun for a masochist to attend. Torture is a good word to capture the imagination of any masochist (and probably Sadist, too)

it felt so sensual....I lifted my head a bit and saw this group of spectators watching smiling..morningstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500052225655763353noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-74043424439788424752011-11-14T05:32:00.000-05:002011-11-14T05:32:05.512-05:00Free falling
We had an event to go to on Saturday. It was our first of this type. The party started at noon and went to 6 pm... and then everyone was going out to dinner to cap off the event.
I had been looking forward to this event a lot !!!

Thursday's fiasco of nasty comments on the blog and the subsequent fall out from them.

On Wednesday I think it was - swan - over on The Heron Clan - challenged her readers to write their life's story in 6 words.
When I think of how many words I have used here to describe my ongoing Journey through this life....... to find 6 words only to describe my entire life........ wow!! what a challenge!!
I promised her I would come back with my own 6 words....... and it took me 48 hours morningstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500052225655763353noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-33647638758980377102011-11-11T03:00:00.001-05:002011-11-11T05:59:14.050-05:00glitches and headaches

I took my car in to the shop - to be told my brakes were done... finished.. rusted through... and it was lucky I was still "stopping"........... 3 hours later and a whole mess of money later.... I got my car back .

Every day over 100 people slip in to "The Journey" - sit and read for a while and then leave. That's ok. It makes me think a little bit like going to a library. You slip in quietly - read quietly - and leave.

I had a draining day yesterday... nothing very serious or out of the ordinary ( as the saying goes "same shit different day") Nevertheless, I was glad to leave the noise and confusion and climb into my lil car and head home.
I didn't even put the radio on.. just drove through the darkness ... letting the day's stresses and problems leave my mind.

I have been fighting with this 'bug' that crawled into my body for a week now. Saturday I was exhausted - even after a good night's sleep. W had a train show to go to... I had toyed with the idea of tagging along - but realized Saturday morning I just didn't have the energy. Better he went on his own and enjoyed the show - rather than have me listlessly following behind.

Halloween is just 6 days away....... Usually it is not something I give much thought to... However this year it seems to be first and foremost in my mind.
Why?? You ask...........
BECAUSE
1) I work in a school where the principal is a halloween NUT...... and all the staff are 'encouraged' to dress up in costumes.... (last year she (the principal) dressed up as Cruella)
2) because of the morningstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500052225655763353noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-8187553119484790132011-10-24T06:00:00.016-04:002011-10-24T06:00:13.066-04:00Monday Again(just my perverse sense of humour)

Sundays are quite truthfully a 'day of rest' for W and I. The routine is quite simple - after breakfast we curl up in the living room and watch the Sunday Morning News show.
As it was finishing up I asked W if he would like another cup of coffee. His answer was "I was just thinking - another coffee OR another beating OR a blow job"
My heart pounded - a blow job?? We haven't done one morningstarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01500052225655763353noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-58014891934885355712011-10-17T06:00:00.004-04:002011-10-17T06:00:02.895-04:00Centered
