I'm finallly in a good mood! LOL....I had a break from all the bad luck & stress that have been "attacking" me as of late. It looks like I found someone who will do the restoration on my truck! <Insert large YAY here!>....For more details, if you are so interested, go check out my SeventySevenChevy site. My checks cleared so I FINALLY have some money again, so I was able to fill up the truck & buy some stuff...I got Bryan's Christmas present, I bought 2 more Rape-Healing books, one of which is a workbook, although I'm not as fond of it as I am the Courage To Heal workbook. It's a bit more basic. They do still make some excellent points, though. The other book I could probably read in 1 sitting, it's more of a resource & informational book. I'm still excited about both of them, none the less. I might get to bake with Lauren tomorrow, which will rock not just the free world, but in fact, the entire world
I'm happy. I did some chanting & prayer work last night (prayers that were done in a more meditative state than I've been doing), it definetly helped. I'm trying to get re-focused on the Wheel of the Year, also. I was doing SO well with that & I really felt in tune with nature as well as myself. Having lost that focus, I think hurt me & caused me to slip & stress, if you know what I mean. I am determined to get EVERY facet of my life back in order. I don't think I have ever had so much deterimination for my life, for my emotional self. I am so focused on getting healed & being better than I was before. It's a nice feeling, let me tell you.
Before I go to buy more egg nog (I'm totally addicted to the stuff...Try the Land-O-Lakes one, it is the best!), I want to post a poll question to you all. My little cockatiel is hanging out on my shoulder as I type this. He is a boy. Bobby named him Hrothgar, after the character in Beowulf. I just don't know if I want to keep it. I was going to name him Ramese after the Pharoah, but come on...Rameses, Akhenaten AND Nefertiti! I think that's a bit much. Then, I was going to combine the 2....Rameses Hrothgar. Big name for a little man. Any ideas or suggestions? Do you think I should stick with the 2 names? Normally, I SERIOUSLY research names from Baby name websites that have names from all ethnicities, if it doesn't come to me first. So, for me to ask is a little out of character, but I'm welcoming so much change in my life, so why not?!
Ok, I'll shut up now. Plus, my craving is getting WAY out of hand! LOL. Ok, have a good one, all. My love is with each of you always. Take good care. Much love & many blessings to you all!
PS
Off the subject, this is a beautiful site, you should definetly check it out!

Not offensive at all--in fact I agree with you. The way he treated women--even the way he talked to women--was entirely radical for a culture where women weren't even allowed to touch a copy of the Torah lest they defile it. A friend of mine likes to say that Jesus was one of the earliest feminists.
Hrothgar, eh? *chuckle* I love the name, though not sure how well it would fit a cockatiel. If you want to stay with the Egyptian theme, how about Horus? Or if not... Quetzalcoatl? Simorgh? Gwahir the Windlord? lol. Maybe he'd be better off with Ramses Hrothgar, at the rate I'm going.
Nothing wrong with a two-named pet, either. All my family dogs have had middle names. Never found middle names for my cats though--I should find some, possibly continuing in the Scottish theme.
I'm so glad to see things are looking up...you deserve nothing less...
and yes, we are on for baking... we'll take on this piece of shit oven and make it work correctly LOL Should be fun and I'm glad you'll be here to do it with us
See you at 2ish! love ya!
I'm so glad to hear you're doing better! You're a strong, strong woman who can definitely put "survivor" on her list of life accomplishments! A toast to you! :2beers:
I like big names for little animals, so I like the two name thing for the birdy, but get rid of the name that Bobby gave him. Reclaim him as YOURS! Hugs!!
