J's funeral was yesterday, now I'm feeling drained. It is so hard to say goodbye to one so young. She shone so brightly. I think she knew her time here was short. Not by any one thing, just by comments she occasionally made and some little things that she did. She taught a lot of us and she brightened my life. I miss you J and I'll see you again.
I need to get off my ass and do laundry, clean, swap out the spring/summer clothes for the fall/winter ones, shower, grocery shop, start cooking, etc... and I don't feel like doing a damn thing. I know it will get better and that I just need to start.
It's fall, I love fall! The cool crisp weather, I usually get so energetic this time of year. I like to do marathon cooking sessions. I make soups and stew and chili and meat dishes, portion them out and freeze them. I like to be able to take portion size dishes out of the freezer and nuke them.
Halloween is coming up, yeah! I don't know how I am going to decorate this year. I need to pull everything out and see what I have. I haven't even decided on a theme for my annual Halloween party yet. Maybe the theme this year will be "no theme", just wear your favorite costume.
My brain is going 240 today. There are so many projects that I want to do over the winter, I am making wands (my birch tree gave me some branches that are perfect), I want to make a cover for my spell book (I have the leather and know what symbols I want, now I need the beads), I have more herbal studies I want to do, mix more oil blends, start writing a book on marriage planning, work on my poetry book, rearrange my office, get the family pictures organized and those in frame hung up, and and and ahhhhhhh!
Ok, breath, as I sit here babbling, I realize that I'm procrastinating again. Ok broomhilda, get up and start! I mean it! Do it NOW!
