The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Yesterday I was kind of down and I was trying to look on the positive side of life and was having trouble doing so. Today when I woke up after a nice long nights rest I felt perky and empowered. I feel like I can do anything today and I know that I can and that its not just today. I have decided to not give others the power to get me down. I maybe a simple housewife, but I am a good friend, a good mother, loyal, trustworthy, driven, hard working, kind, caring, and I wear my heart on my sleeve. I have just decided that today is a new day and everyone who wants to try and bring me down can piss off. I am who I am and if you don't like it, too damn bad!!!!



Okay I feel better now that I have that off of my chest lol. This past week I have had some encounters with people getting pissed off at me over stupid stuff and people not sticking to deals made. I feel better now that its out of my system. I am excited about this weekend. I am going on a date with David tonight to a local comedy club and dinner. We have been before and it was the funnest date that we have ever been on. We just enjoyed each other laughing and feeling good. We both love humor and comedy so its like this is truly our favorite place to go and its just so much fun and the best part is that its free. We buy dinner but if you are not hungry or don't really have the money to go out then you can still go and have fun and enjoy it. So I am really excited about that.



I have made a lot of headway this week on getting information for the coven organized. Its nice to see my hard work actually have a positive result. Our goal is to have a topic for every month and base our meetings on that months topics. My sister and I have already decided on some topics so we are gathering information and researching and getting all of that organized so when the time comes for that topic we are not scrambling at the last minute to get it all ready. So I am really proud of us and the work that we have been doing.



Our new pet rat, Gregory has been settling in rathe well to our home and his new surroundings. The cage that we had for him had a tiny hole in the bottom of the plastic part in the corner. We knew it was there and that it was tiny and did not even think twice about it. Then the other morning I feel someone pulling on my nightshirt and thought it was David. I turned over and all of a sudden I see this little fuzzy face looking right at me and giving me kisses. Gregory had chewed on the tiny hole and made it a huge hole where he could get out of his cage. We didn't have an extra cage and we didn't have the money to go out that day to get another one, so we were trying to figure out what to do for the next couple of days until we would be able to get a new cage. We have a pet rabbit named Baxter. We used to have him and our pet guinea pig Charlotte, who passed away about a month ago, in the same cage because they fell in love. We weren't sure if Gregory or Baxter would get along since they were both male, and we weren't sure if Baxter was up to it since he has been depressed since Charlotte died. So we tried it for one night and it turned out that they are the best of friends. So now they are room mates and they both have so much spunk and look so much happier now that they have each other.



My little boy is growing up way too fast. A couple of weeks ago he lost his first tooth, and now he has two more teeth that are loose. Kids just grow up way too fast. I can't believe that in just a few months he will be turning six and starting school. I will be so bored and lost without him during the day. I have decided that once he starts school I am going to look into going back to college and finishing my business degree. So that is what I am going to try and do when that time comes.



I have been focusing on my art and writing a lot more here lately as well. I am not that talented and could never really profit from either one, but I do it just for me and I enjoy it. Creating something is the only thing that can really calm me down when the world turns hectic. Anyway, I know this has been a ramble and long so I will end it here. May bright blessings be yours.

I have decided that its time that I evaluate my life and the people that I allow to be in it. I am taking a good hard look at myself which is never easy to do. I realized that I need to work harder on some things like my coven. I work on it everyday but I have now realized that I am doing it half assed and that I need to work harder at it. I have also realized that people I put in the friend category really don't belong there. I try to be a good friend and for the most part I feel like I succeed. I try to give back what others give to me. I guess I am in a philosophical mood. This has all came about since I have moved. I moved thirty minutes away from where I used to live and the people that I hung out with locally acts as if I moved to a different country. Yes I know that gas is an issue for everyone, but they can still call, email, and reach me on my websites that I am a part of. So this got me really down and made me realize that I didn't have as many true friends as I thought. In a way this was hard to go through especially since a move is a big change anyway, but I am learning from this and growing from this experience. I am almost grateful that this has happened. A lot of people got upset that we were moving. I was hoping that more people would be happy for us since we are bettering our lives and can afford to live in a bigger and nicer place. Anyway, that is what is going on with that.



I have also decided to make some goals for myself for the summer. I want to really get this coven up and going so my first goal is to work on that everyday and do it wholeheartedly and not half assed like I have been doing. I think this group could really help others learn magick and the craft and can be somewhere where people can feel free to be themselves. So that is my goal for sure.



My second goal is to take better care of my body. I have started walking everyday and I have more energy and I am feeling really good. I am learning to really listen to my body and what it needs and what is harming it. So I am eating better and actually growing vegetables on my balcony. I am excited about that.



So that is what has been going on with me. I am embracing these new experiences and loving life and meeting new people and making new friends and I am just doing really good. I hope that everyone has a good day!
