The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Last night I was at a hockey game and ran into an old friend from when I was in my late teens and early twenties. We used to go dancing and check out bands, and even went camping on occasion.



We didn't part well because she was so obsessed with everything I did. She would come by my work and try to get me to leave early. She'd call me more than five times a day and have guys call me wanting to hook up. She just weirded me out after a while.



She dubbed me *Medusa* because of my wild red hair that was never tamed. Still isn't tamed unless I straighten it and I don't like doing that.



Anyway, I talked to her for a bit and she said she'd like to get together. I told her I was busy (in a nice way) and I'm thankful she doesn't know where I live...whew!! Dodged major drama with that one!!

My daughter has a great Coven. HannahRose is a great Coven Master and I am thankful and very appreicative of everything this Coven and CM has done and will continue to do for my daughter...

For the last 3 hrs my phone has been going off like crazy. We have 6 assignments due in Economics tomorrow. Of cours, like a good girl I am, I've already turned in my assignments, wrote my Discussion post, and took my test. My peers are calling me to go over the assignments because they don't understand this or that. I don't mind helping if you attempt the work first but don't call me expecting to get the answers.



I work hard for my grades but I expect you to work hard too and I will help you get the answer but I'm not going to give it to you!! GGGRRRRR So glad I have only one more week of this class!!

I got a B+ on my Econ test, 3 wrong but it's OK. I tried my best. Am happy with the grade. I have 5 assignments to do yet. I got 3 done so far.



Taking a break and enjoying the sun...daughter is going to a Spring Equinox party tonight...hope she has fun

One more week of Economics and then it's on to Business Law and International Business. I just really dislike when a book for a class really sucks. And believe me, there are a few textbooks that are written poorly and I think I've had them all, lol. This one for Econ is horrendous.



School aside, the weekend looks bright...I mean really bright already this morning. The sun is beaming and tonight's a full moon which means I can charge my "tools" and Bless my water. Great for certain spells and rituals. If need be. I haven't really done a spell or ritual in a while. Well not consciously, lol.



Sadness, yes this morning I was outside to check on our pond we have. It's not a huge pond. It's just one we made by our deck to house fish and frogs. The ice is completely melted now and I am sad to say all my fish died:-( Frogs too:(



We have lots of frogs in our area. It's mating season now and all you can hear at night are them, the ducks, geese, and once in a while a coyote. It's pretty cool here in Spring.



Happiness, I've been working out regularly and sticking to my gluten-free diet since I'm a celiac. I actually feel really great now and have been able to do lots of things without feeling bogged down. I can always tell when there's gluten in my food, I feel like crap days after so I've stopped going to my mom's for dinner. She needs to realize I cannot eat what she can. I don't eat out, it's pointless and I enjoy cooking anyway.



And finally, my dog is not skunky smelling any more. She was for a day or two but it's wearing off, thank goodness for that!!



Have a wonderful Saturday, I will!!

my gluten free cocoa pebbles...POST has gluten free items which is awesome, ty POST!!

Very cool. I've noticed (now that I follow your journal) that several grocery items are labeled Gluten-free. The coffee i bought yesterday was labeled gluten-free. that surprised me, since I never would have suspected any coffee to contain gluten.

It is quite amazing...if not shocking... the amount of products that contain gluten.

I'm looking forward to growing my own little garden of vegetables and herbs. ;-)

My daughter was born with a birth defect, it isn't noticeable but it affects her stomach especially when she's very anxious or does physical activity.



Back in November, her doctor put her on homebound services, meaning having the school send a teacher to our home twice a week to instruct her. Now mind you this was the first part of November that we set this up. The teacher didn't call me until December 23rd. Shows up a week later and doesn't have work for her until January. HHHMMM this makes her behind, does it not???



So the work my daughter gets that she does understand, she turns in. The other work she asks for instructions which the teacher proceeds to tell her, "I don't know, I'll have to get instructions for that" Weeks go by and now my daughter is failing all but two classes. My daughter was an Honor Roll student.



I get a letter from the teacher that she has told my daughter to forget about last semester altogether..WTF??? No teacher should ever tell a child to just forget about it or take an E...OMG I am a teacher, I would never think of doing this ever!!!



I call the school and they took forever to call me back. They placed her in Virtual which isn't what my daughter wanted. The doctor released my daughter two weeks ago to go back to regular school and see how she does. The school refused to take her back and they called this morning to tell me they wrote a release letter so that my daughter may attend another school in another district...it's as if they're washing their hands of the situation they created and I feel as though my daughter was being punished for being ill.



My daughter is doing better and she is on meds that help ease the discomfort and we go to the new school tomorrow making arrangements for her to start...hopefully this goes well...if not there will be HELL to pay and they do not want to feel my WRATH moreso than they already have.

I have discovered more and more that teachers and school administrators are helping individuals less and less. I am sorry to hear that you are being abandoned by the system.

You got cut in the bureaucracy of every school system in America. Over populated and under pay. Next time talk with your congress man/woman.

More Economics homework, ugh!! I got my grades for my 5 assignments from last week, 3 100% a 95%, and an 80%. My graph was slightly off. At least I tried. I'm not a mathematician. I dislike graphs, I dislike ECON. I'll be ranting about this for 3 more weeks, hahahaha. Next two classes will be better, Business Law and International Business.



I mean the 4 A's are good but the B needs tweaking. I do not like seeing B's.



Anyway, off to do whatever whimsical thing comes to mind tonight...

Today a pretty significant project was due. We had to find an article about rising prices and supply and demand. It was a no brainer for me. I chose to analyze an article on gluten-free products because I have celiac disease and I know the topic pretty well since I live with it daily. So I analyzed the article, that was the easy part. Doing the graph sucked!!!



I wrote my analysis in Word so I inserted my chart in Word as well but no the instructor wanted us to use his template from Keynote...OMG It was the flipping hardest thing for me to get right but after three hours I managed to get a presentable graph in my paper. So I finished it and submitted it.



It's now after 3 and I have had four phone calls from classmates asking me how I did the graph, lol.



One person who lives in Florida (this is an online class we're taking) says she's not doing the assignment. I was like well it's your money you're wasting but at least analyze an article, you'll get credit for that...the phone rings again, this time it's another classmate and he's complaining about the first econ class that I had taken a month ago, he was like help. So I instructed him how to do his assignment...Man, I need to start charging people, hahahah just kidding, I like helping others but I really hate ECONOMICS with a passion!!

What I absolutely hated was the research & evaluation classes that I had to take dealing with statistics. Holler if you need any help with the graph or anything on Word. :-)

Thanks for that, I will definitely message you for help, if you don't mind

I went out and got a binder today so that I can keep a journal of an array of things from ideas, tarot readings, intuition flashes, and dreams. I haven't been keeping tabs on all this stuff like I used to.



I got so caught up in my studies at school that I haven't taken the time to write more poetry or anything else for that matter, including personal interests. VR is about the only other thing I do outside of going to college, work, and being a mom.



I decided I was in need of a change and have signed up with a gym. I was working out at home but now I am going to go to the gym and not only get a good work out but perhaps make friends and mingle...forgot what that was like, lol...Gym starts Monday, it will be great!! I mean I have free weights and other equipment here at home in the basement and it gets used daily but I do it alone and it'll be nice to be around others. I cannot wait, change is good, right??? Of course it is!!

Many people have asked where I go to school, I attend Full Sail University. I am an Entertainment Business student, graduate. I have a degree in Communications/Journalism, a Bachelor's in Business and now I'm getting a Masters.



I have a few friends in the music industry and I've made some new friends while attending Full Sail.



This University pushes me to do my very creative best. I love this school. I am challenged, finally!! My hard work, creativity, and efforts have paid off. I have a 3.96 GPA that's not too shabby.



I just created a podcast for my econ class and I received 100%.



I do not take my education lightly. I enjoy learning and I enjoy teaching so if you are reading this and need help with your school work, let me know. I help a few of my peers from time to time and I don't mind helping others!!



~~ZA~~

It's been a while since I wrote in my journal, any journal, for that matter. I got used to holding things in and not breaking into tears. It's been even longer since I cried. I called Noah and opened the flood gates this morning.



It seems things are piling up and I'm not just talking school, work, being a mom, etc. Just everything. It's hard being a mom on my own and not having anyone to turn to talk to about anything. I don't open up. I find it hard to trust people and those I had trusted broke my heart and I haven't even cried over that until now.



I feel alone, crazy but true. I can't turn to my daughter's dad for help, he's always saying "what am I supposed to do?" I feel like saying I don't know, be a fucking dad, be a man, quit being a wuss, speak up, do your duty...just stuff like that. Same thing with my mom, I'd love to tell her how I really feel but cannot because I know what I say will hurt her and she's in denial...there's anger where she's concerned. I'm angry with her for a lot of reasons. There my reasons and I thought I could deal with them but they're mounting up...BLAH!!





My few friends that I have are childless so they cannot help me with that and I would never ask for help. I never ask for help. I always think I can do it on my own. Same with school work. People call me asking for help for school but someone mentioned to me the other night, "Chelle" they implied, "who do you turn to for help?" No one I answered, no one. My friend on the other end of the line was silent and then responded, "exactly my point. you don't ask when you need it, you think you can accomplish everything on your own, you've done it for a very long time, but now's the time to lean on someone a little"



Who the hell am I going to lean on??? I lean on a wall, I never leaned on anyone and I don't know how to...it's just not my style. However, change is good right???



I did a tarot reading for guidance, the card were Magician, Strength, and the 10 of Pentacles. The Magician tells me I'm creative and the time to act is now, Strength tells me I have endurance and love, and the 10 0f Pentacles tells me I have wealth in abundance...so all in all it was a good reading guiding me through what it is I need to do...change is coming and I need to act and I'll be OK while I go through the change and I'll end up with just reward for doing so...*sighs* I need to learn to trust again
