Apr. 8th, 2009 @ 12:36 am Great idea

While I’ve been trying to get organized, I find things are quite overwhelming in certain areas here in the house. When I do finally start “cleaning” i totally get distracted and end up bouncing from clutter pile to clutter pile. I think with this plan of doing 10 minutes at a time it’ll cut down on my feeling overwhelmed by everything.

My plan is to get everything cleaned out and cleaned up then spend 10 a day cleaning and sorting.

See more progress on: spend at least 10 minutes every day cleaning, organizing or decluttering

So I've been doing a lot of "journal type" entries in things that aren't my journal. I've had a few journal projects through my hands in which I worked either artisticly or journaling.My journal has very limited entries at the moment. A lot are just random scribbles as I mentally sort through projects I have coming up. I've been enjoying the many questions posed to the group about how exactly people go about writing in/to their journals. I tend to write as I would talk. Not really addressed to "the journal" I hope to post some pictures tomorrow of both my visual/artistic journal pages and my written page. Not much has happened and I'm not deep and introspective so be prepared for boring mundane "chatter".

Jan. 9th, 2006 @ 11:42 am a long overdue update
Current Mood: uncomfortable
Current Music: counting crows - holiday in Spain
So it's been way too long since I updated this thing. I've been doing so many things outside of here that I hardly come over to read and catch up anymore. I've been doing many different yahoogroups for my arts and such and it's taken on a life of it's own. I've been doing some modding at sites of my own and others. Participating in the Embodiement community here, but not quite keeping up on their latest entries as i would have to be on the computer 24/7 I've been trying to work on my creative blog at blogspot..you can check it out but I haven't updated since a bit after christmas. I'm still cleaning up from the holiday hoopla. http://theviridianmuse.blogspot.com

Right now I'm wasting time until my aspirin kick in. I slept funny last night and my back is KILLING me. I can barely move without searing pain. So hopefully the aspirin I took will help at least kill some of it so I can proceed with my day, if not I might go position myself on the floor in front of the tv and see if I can get it to calm down.

I've got to clean the bedroom and get some laundry done. I work tomorrow and a lot the rest of the week, and then it's pretty much dead for the rest of the month..:( Oh well, it'll be more than I can handle over the summer with all three kids and the excitment of summer. Hopefully it won't take me too long to get an authority position over the boys. I don't have them long enough in a day to establish that....so we'll have a lovely first three weeks when summer starts.

Well I've been quite busy in the last two days. I spent about three hours last night updating my cafepress store with new items and new illustrations. I think they turned out pretty well. I think I'll be taking down the mask designs section, unless I can dig up some of my older masks and get them brushed up and looking sparkly. I also want to add a photography section once I get my digital pics fixed. I have one in there already, but it's just boring green grass with rain droplets. If you haven't checked it out yet, or I never mentioned it (i don't like to show people because I don't want them to feel I EXPECT them to buy something) here's the link :

Oct. 25th, 2005 @ 08:07 pm poem to my messy self.
Slowly, slowly, creeping along
working while I sing some songs
messy bessy, clean it up
make it not look like a dump.
Pass on goods that will be used
by someone else, since not by you.
Make room for all your new addictions
and use your space for new creations.
See more progress on: finish cleaning my art space.

Oct. 12th, 2005 @ 06:39 pm injury
Current Mood: sore
Well I went to the doc's today. It was weird. My doctor of ten years (whom I've only met once) is now gone from the place I go. I listened throught their whole bloody menu twice to see if I missed it the first time through. I then decided since I didn't hear his name in the options (PAIN IN THE ASS BY THE WAY) I should direct myself to Scheduling Appointments choice. I push the corresponding number and then have to wait 20 minutes for someone to come on the phone to respond to me. I ask first off if my doctor is still there and the woman on the other end informs me that he isn't a staff member there any longer. I was a bit concerned at this. I never got notification that he was no longer practicing with them. So I asked if it meant I had to leave or not. I was welcome to stay with them but if I felt the need to follow said doctor, they were able to give me information and would send my files over to his office. I opted to stay with them because it's easy to get to.

Thankfully they had an opening with my husband's doctor so I took her. I got there and had to go through the story of my fall three times. Got into to wait for the doctor and had to go through it with her. She barely touches me and gives my ankle a minute glance and sends me off to the hospital to get x-rays. I've got an air cast and a prescription for Naprosyn. She says once the swelling goes down if I still have pain she'll gladly send me for an MRI to see what's up but she thinks (with barely looking at me or checking me over) it's just a sprain and I should be fine.

So...ummm I guess I'm fine according to the doctor. I can already feel the swelling going down in my ankle.That Naprosyn is great stuff. It's what I had for my last foot problem. So I go once again to ice it up and elevate it. I have some phone calls to make tonight on my babysitting job tomorrow and to call my friend back. Then I think Patrick and I will be fighting tonight..joy of joys.

Oct. 10th, 2005 @ 11:06 pm did a lovely mess up today
Current Mood: drained
Well I've now got a job. It's a mid pay job, but it'll ease me back into things and give me the background to go into childcare in the future. It'll get me references. It's been awhile since I worked with kids other than my own neice and nephews. I took the kids to the park today. Thank the universe that Patrick was with me. I had to take one of the kids to the bathroom. On our way back he ran ahead of me and I and was walking precariously on the edge of a small hill trying to keep up. Doing so caused me to loose my footing and twist my ankle something fierce. I was about 150 yards away from the playground where Patrick was with the other two kids. I was behind the building so he couldn't see me. I pulled myself up off the hill and that's when I realized my ankle was in bag shape. When I fell my left ankle tucked up under my butt twisting to the side and backward. I heard a most terrible crunching sound and a horrendous pop. I slowly pushed myself up trying to see what I was able to do. I barely could hobble the three feet down the rest of the hill without losing my balance again. When I got to the bottom I dragged myself along the building at a terribly slow pace. A man sitting on the outside of the fence around the playground saw me fall and continued to sit on the bench. There is a sidewalk between the building and the fence around the playground that's about 5 feet wide. From the corner of the building to the fence the man just sat and watched me hobble.When I got almost in front of him barely able to hold myself up on the fence enough to get into the playground to flag Patrick down , he says " That was a pretty messy fall you had there." I'm like NO KIDDING! (DUH) "I think I either broke my ankle or pulled ligiments." .."Aww that's too bad."he says as he gets up and leaves.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! What would you do if you saw some helpless person with nobody around fall and then laboriously pull themselves along a wall and fence for 15 minutes??? I sure as hell wouldn't sit and watch them do so and then comment on it, only to respond with a "AWW that's too bad." FUCK! Maybe I'm too sympathetic, maybe I've got my optimism for the kindness of people set too bloody high!?!? I don't know. I couldn't sit by idly while someone hobbled by in pain without asking if I could help..or when I saw them fall and the hobble took them a 5 minute creep to get 3 feet I would feel the need to go and see if I could be of assistance. Is it just me? Am I too nice? WHAT WOULD YOU DO????

Oct. 1st, 2005 @ 11:20 pm job over what a PAIN!
Current Mood: cranky
I am still amazed at the rudeness of people in situations where there is a waitstaff. Tonight's meal was a sit down serve meal, not a buffet. The place we work in barely has enough room for 120 people yet the consistantly CRAM in 160 or more. This makes things IMPOSSIBLE to work the floor. The walkways between tables were only 18 inches at most. Plus to add to the frustration there are poles every five feet which cut those pathways down to 12 inches at best. Between tables (chair to chair) there was a teeny tiny space of about three inches to work your way into the row. This caused much pain and misery and almost spilled food as you tried to wedge yourself in to get the the last person in the row. Now...you'd think that when the DJ announced that the meal was being served people would have ventured back to their seats. Oh of course not! That would have been to easy. I don't mind walking by people with trays if they're kind enough to move when you say "excuse me". This group however was by far the worst I've seen.


You'd have your left had full of a tray with four or five meals on it and a meal in your right hand. You'd come to someone blocking the already miniscule aisle and say "excuse me" To which they ignored you. Then you'd say it louder and with more authority and they'd STILLL ignore you. Then you'd touch them and say it again and they'd still ignore you. It got to the point that I was pretty much shoving people as I walked by. They were still reluctant to move. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I was PISSED! How rude and insensitive as I stand here with about 15 pounds of plates and food stacked on my one shoulder and a searing hot plate in my hand burning the CRAP out of me!

Then clean up was even worse! We're trying to bus the tables and they're complaining because we're taking the glasses away. They could go to the bar and get a plastic cup, but that's not good enough for them. Then I'm lugging around 40 pounds of wine glasses from the kitchen to the bar and people see me coming and won't move. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR PEOPLE SUCK!!!

Now my butt is not the smallest and I wouldn't expect it to be as wide a way as I would need to feel completely comfortable...but 18 inches is NOT enough space.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Just saw it! IT's AMAZING! WONDERFUL! SHOCKER SHOCKER! I LOOOOOOOOVED IT! I'm going back to see it at least three more times. I just need to ...gosh..it was great! I have to say it was one of the best movies I've seen in a long long time. Totally blown away. I'm so totally in love with that whole story and wish there were oh so much more of it to see and live. It's such a shame it died too soon. **le sigh** I'll post more about things it after I see it again.

Sep. 15th, 2005 @ 11:05 am much grumping and rambling.
Current Mood: apathetic
It's been awhile since I updated. What's going on in my life that requires an update, hmmmm....um......ummm.......ummmmmmmmm...NOTHING. I'm thinking of taking a job at a gas station/convenience store. It's almost as far from my house as my last job, the pay is two dollars less, but if there are benefits for full time employess, I'M THERE! Plus the hours are fantastic 7-3 Monday through Friday and NO WEEKENDS! NO WEEKENDS! How lucky is that. So I've been trying to decide if that's the way I want to go. I really haven't put much thought into it, but as I said before, the universe has dropped every job into my lap. This one, plus another dropped in at about the same time. However, the second job never really panned out. Is this a sign that I need to take this second job? I have no idea. I wonder if I should really just go out and pepper everywhere from here to there with applications and a resume (if I ever get one worked up) and see what happens.

My living area is dire need of an overhaul. It's become very overcrowded and messy. I've been picking at the piles of crap for days now, not really making much progress at all. My "art room" is once again the dumping spot for all the crap we have no where else to put. I commented the other day about not being able to wait until we got a house and I had a room all to myself to put my art stuff in. He got all defensive "Well what kind of room do you need?" I need a room where I have more than just a couple 2 foot spaces on opposite ends of the room to put my stuff. I need a room where the empty boxes of toys he's collecting aren't stacked up in the corner where I was planning on putting my easle up. I need a room where the shelfs are not a mess of mix stuff. I'd love to win some kind of artistic organizational contest. Not that I've ever seen something like that, but it would be fun to be able to have a pro come in and design a studio space for me. I would love to be able to have a nice little homestead on a nice forested bit of land, perhaps overlooking a lake or pretty body of water, and have a nice little studio seperated from the house with a great wall of glass windows and a beautiful garden out the back. I'd love to have those windows open and be able to have a partially, or completely open wall to let the sun and breeze in from outside. Ahhh that would be lovely.

Well I told myself I wouldn't waste time today. I'm going to go try to shuffle around more piles. Perhaps even get something done!

We spent all day yesterday digging up and replacing the pipe to our septic system. When we lifted the lid to the tank, it was FUUUUULLLL. Disgusting! Thankfully my brother-in-law found a place that would come out and drain the tank on Sundays! How lucky was that. So we spent the rest of the afternoon digging out and replacing the old ceramic pipe to replace it with PVC piping. It was a disgusting job. I couldn't help as much as I wanted because of my tattoo. I couldn't shove it into a tennis shoe and had to slip a sock under my sandal to keep it out of the sun and keep the mucky dirt off of it. We now just have to burry the pipe back up. That's not going to be a fun job because it's raining hard already and I'm not sure when it's going to stop. Maybe after Patrick and I pick up the Jeep he and I can work to shove at least half of the pit closed.
