1. This picture is from the Orchard where we went apple picking. Can you believe that we can do that now? The summer went by so fast.
2. All the kids are back in school. My son is liking High School. PHEW! The girls got a 100 on their first test. Hopefully, this is a sign of things to come.
3. I almost done with my class. One more mod and a giant final. I have to get on it and get it done. The next class starts on the 18th. I got an A on the report all of you helped me with. Don’t ya feel smart now?
4. I can already see it is going to be a crazy year. My schedule is filling up.
5. Plus, we are moving our business. OMG! This is so crazy. But, we are going to save a lot! And, we need to save all we can. Speaking of business and money, we may have to cut out the health insurance. They sent the renewal and we have a giant increase coming. It may be me, but TWELVE THOUSAND dollars a year for a family just a little fuckin’ insane.
6. I think all insurance is a scam.
7. My home office is almost done. Are you jealous? I can go in and close the door and be BY MYSELF! I need to be able to study in peace and right now that is not happening.
8. Goldenrod is not my friend. My allergies are so bad I have had to take Clairition. I hate taking medicines of any kind. But, I can’t keep sneezing and not breathing.
9. Because of the allergry and a VERY stressful few weeks, I am so tired. It is good to be sleeping again. It was cold here this morning.
10. Next Tuesday is the New Moon. It will be a solar eclipse. Have you felt a shift, lately? Saturn went into Virgo. Now we can put into action all those plans we have.
11. Pluto and Venus are going to go direct this week. FINALLY! So if you have had relationship issues (Venus) this should help.
12. Relationship issues? Who Me? Right…..we won’t discuss the blow-out, breakdown from last Sat. We can dish about your relationship woes instead, K?
13. I will leave you with this:
Let us ride our horse of confidence.
Let us use our bow and arrow of genuineness.
Let us develop gentleness, so we don’t have to destroy the world.
~ Chogyam Trunpa Rinpoche






Oh, you sound like you’re stretched too thin! I hope your planets align perfectly and the goldenrod leaves you alone and you can relax and sleep. And I’m glad your kids are doing so well in school
Yes, that WAS my shortest TT ever! (and yes, Girls, Girls, Girls IS a Crue song)
Nope, I’m not jealous of your home office — I’ve got the same set-up, although the airflow’s bad so I rarely shut the door. Only if I want to talk about the Tour Manager without going outside. *grin*
The allergies, though… Yuck. Stick with the Claritin and feel better!!! (boo to health insurance, too)
yes, i think i AM jealous of your home office.
Wow….great stuff. I think its too late for my relationship woes…where was Venus a week ago?? lol…Happy TT,
It’s too late for my relationship woes. I’m enjoying life as a single gal, it’s absolutly much more relax and fun!!!!
Great TT!!!
Ugh, allergies! Hope you’re feeling better soon.
One big bonus is that your kids like school. They used to say if Mom ain’t happy, nobody is happy, but it’s probably more like: if the kids ain’t happy NOBODY is happy!
great tt and congrats on your home office –!
Write to your congressman and senator about your insurance, that’s just disgusting!! Hope you have a calmer week next week.
Yeah for boys liking high school, next will be driving!!
oh boy do i hear you on the insurance costs - i swear they up the dang fees every four months. and not by a tiny amount either.
you have ALONE time? i am jealous.
I live on Claritin D, so I hear you about the Goldenrod. Insurance is just a governement scam. But I wanna hear about #12
insurance insurance insurance…. don’t get me started. great list!
Good to catch up. What do you think of the new planet they found, Planet X? And why did the demote Pluto?
Speaking of New Moon, I need to call the library to reserve that book.. lol
Hope you feel better soon (allergies suck don’t they?). I swear I live in the allergy capital of the country (seriously, when they want to study allergies- they come here!). I’m slowly turning my dining room into an office, so I’m not jealous (yet), but I’d love to see photos. Have a great weekend.
A $12,000 increase? Yikes! That’s just insane. Who can afford that?
After reading through your TT, Nancy, I think you could use a nice, relaxing vacation.
Or if that’s not possible, then maybe a 5-pound box of chocolate–all for your little old self.
If not having a relationship is having relationship issues then yeah. Hope all is well!
Sparky: What’s to know? We live together, work togther, eat together, sleep together. OMG! We are always together. And, if work is not going well, like it has been, then we sometimes fight. And, we did. Crying etc…
Plus, we both detest what we are doing and cannot get out of it yet..
I have to take Claritin-D daily. All year. So yeah, I know what you’re going through there. I do envy you your office. And ugh on the doing everything together and hating what you’re doing. Hope things work out for you real soon.
I know I already left a comment earlier, but now I’m back to ask if you’d like to answer some questions?
Tag… you’re it!
Hello! Top Blog! And a fellow poet to boot!
I cannot agree with you more about Insurance companies, but scummers aside I wanted to say have you tried a Bioflow for your allergies? In case you have not heard of them they are magnetic bracelets worn by people and animals that give immense aid for a variety of complaints.
I have lent mine to several people with hay fever and asthma and it has stopped it altogether. If you are interested in giving one a go and think it might help check out http://www.magnetsforall.com/ (there is loads about bioflows on google).
Lastly, I will never watch Superman the Small Years and see him in the same light again! Quite a surprise!
Be visiting again soon! BYE!
WOW!!! You have a TON going on. I hope you take time to relax!
