Here are my minds thought. It is unique, so beware.
You have been warned! |

Here lies my thoughts both good and bad. Some may be funny, some may be sad. My mind may wonder any which way. But I will try to keep it at bay. |
| I enjoyed being home for a while. But now... Now I want to go out. I want to work. I want something different! My stay is extended the stay at home order until the end of May... A full month in front of me and I feel like I might have a panic attack. I cried for a bit earlier. I just want to go somewhere. Sigh... In a little happier news, we got our new rain barrels. We leveled the bricks for them and got them installed. We just need some rain. We have the black currant and rhubarb planted in one of the new triangle beds we got done. An artist I followed did a commission for me. I hope to get it in the mail soon to get me out of my funk. I tried coloring, drawing, writing but those just frustrated me. If anyone is interested, I did get the short story I wrote when I was younger up. It is pretty bad but I tried not to fix it. Here is hoping that tomorrow brings a better attitude. Oh, I did start cleaning my room... Neoma Nyx; New Moon Night |
| Sorry for the gap in writing... been super busy. On Wednesday, my job asked for volunteers to make masks. This involved going to my sister's branch to get the sewing machine and 3D printer. The location is about 40 minutes away. After taking those items back to the house, we picked up the wood to make our other raised beds. I may have lost my grip on a board and bruised my arm... On Thursday, I laid around with a headache. On Friday, we had our father help us cut some of the boards down to the size we needed. We need to put the boxes together but most of them are ready otherwise. On Saturday, we worked on the large planter. It was leveled, lined with fabric, and filled with the dirt we had in the pots it was replacing. My sis set up the 3D printer and made some connector arm she needed for the other filaments. On Sunday (Easter), I made a couple cheesecakes in the morning. Then we helped my mom cook dinner; turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, ham, potato salad, and cranberries. That evening we colored our Easter Eggs. (I made a face hugger egg.) On Monday, we worked out the supplies we needed for masks. We ordered it on JoAnne Fabric's site for curbside pickup. We also did a few things for our jobs. I worked a little more on my class too. Today, we picked up our orders from JoAnne's. We also made two trips to Home Depot. They had bags of dirt on clearance for $1. We filled the large bed the rest of the way up. We also have a few bags for our other beds that need to be built. In total, we bought 45 bags of dirt (31 went into the large bed). I am going to work on my class and hopefully submit my third section. My sis is fighting with the 3D printer... Tomorrow, we will begin sewing! |
| Yesterday was a window cleaning, dust everything day. In other words, I tried to choke to death on Windex and dust. Today, I was not prepared for the heat/humidity combo today. (Queue in the Illidan clip.) It went from an average of 50s and dry to almost 80 and dripping. I need more adjustment than a day! I do not handle heat or humidity very well. It is not unheard of for me to burn, get heat stroke, or even heat exhaustion. Luckily, today I put on sunscreen and took many breaks in front of a fan. Today was another day working on the back planter box. We got all the sides done the other day. Today we thought we were just putting said sides together... Yeah... Ever had a plan that seems simple but turns out to be just this side of a nightmare? That was this. We got one long side and the two short sides together easy enough. The problem was when we moved it into place to attach the last side. The concrete patio that it was going to sit on was not level. We thought we would need to make some minor adjustments to it. The adjustments would have been raising one end almost five inches! That is a lot of space when the planter was designed to use the concrete as its base. There was no easy way to make the adjustments and keep it functional and looking nice all at the same time. Only solution, DESTROY THE CONCRETE. I may have gotten a few strange looks from my family as I sledgehammered the concrete into submission.  It is very therapeutic. The planter is now level and sitting in the sand that was under the concrete with all four side together. Still need to put in a center support, landscape fabric, and fill it. But it was enough today.I worked on my Cryptozoology coarse. Still waiting on my grade for the first section. Still need to clean my room... Oh look the storm is here, time to go watch the light show. Neoma Nyx; New Moon Night |
| Welcome one and all to my mind's insane rambling! I am starting to feel the pressure of being home so much. They have extended the stay at home order in my area until April 30. So three more weeks of this! Ugh... I mean I have tried to be productive with my time off but I can only self motivate so much. After while, I just can find the energy. The weather was nice for a few days so we worked outside. The two small planters are now put together and in place. The garden beds are all cleaned. The front flower bed has been mulched. The large planter bed we are building has two (small) sides completed and the brackets are attached to the remaining boards. If I can convince my sister to work on it today, we might get side number three done. We also marked out where three new beds will go and measured an existing bed that needs to be replaced. Once the large bed we are working on is done, we will order the wood so we can just pick-up and go. The eventual plan is to brick over the grass (what little there is) in the backyard. The beds take up most of it already. We lit the fire pit for the first time this year. I got my s'mores! We burned a lot of the branches we trimmed in the fall. Sitting by the fire was a great way to clear my thoughts. If we don't work outside I may work on writing. I may actually be brave enough to make the first chapter available once I finish it. I also found some old writings from when I was younger (13 or 14?) that I may post just for fun. I have also started an online coarse for Cryptozoology. It is fun so far. It is a way to pass the time and keep my brain active. Huh. Maybe I am more motivated and active than I thought... Still haven't cleaned my room... Oh well! Time to go make hearts! Tell you about that project next time, maybe... Neoma Nyx; New Moon Night |
| So... today is day 7 of staying home. The weather continues to be gloomy, which does not help my mood. It also means no working in backyard. I need to clean my room but haven't felt up to it. I have tried drawing, coloring, playing video games, watching tv, reading, writing, surf the net, and more. Nothing is holding my attention at the moment. They are now saying that this could go on for a few more weeks... I might not survive that. I am bored enough that I debated trying out a dating site. It would be a mess since I am too shy to talk to anyone. Here is hoping for a better day tomorrow. Neoma Nyx; New Moon Night |
| Hello world! Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. I have spring cleaning fever! I have spent the last few days cleaning (and made sis help). On Monday (day 2), we spent the day cleaning the Cat Room. The room is half cat toys and half storage. It is now neatly organized, vacuumed, and decluttered. Yesterday (day 3), we cleaned the... um plant room... tool room... catch-all room... whatever you wanna call it. It now has floor space! Part of which now holds temporary shelves. We started a bunch of plants from seeds. Those are now on the shelves with grow lights. We then made cheesecake and meringue cookies. Today, we made caramel from scratch for the top the cheesecake. It may have taken a couple tries to get it right... first one burnt. Then I cleaned all the leaves, dead plants and debris from the front garden beds and by the garbage cans. I also thatched the front lawn. My sis cleaned her car during this time. Now she is grilling up some goodness. Yay for Yummies! Neoma Nyx; New Moon Night |
| It's been a while since I have written. I have had so much going on in my life that I didn't have time. Today's blog will be a catch up session. First, I'm single now. The guy I had been dating in the last post (14 years ago...) decided he liked men more than women. So... Yeah... He's gone. I was with another guy for a while. I loved him. We became engaged in 2012. That same year he was diagnosed with colon cancer. I lost him in 2014. After that it's hard to even wanna date. On the positive side, I went back to school. I now have my Master's of Library and Information Science. I work as a librarian at a public library. I am content with where my life is. With that, I felt it was finally time to start writing the stories in my head again. Happy Writing! Neoma Nyx; New Moon Night |
| I am completely happy right now. My BF and I are so happy together. I havent been writing lately but I plan to write more soon after finals. I wish all hope and happiness in life. |
| As I walked down the street I noticed things like I always do. Yet something was different from the way I normally noticed things. The street was the same street I had walked down before. The building hadn’t changed much and all the beautiful sculptures were still standing as silent guards watching people pass by. Yet something was different. I noticed as I walked that the area was quieter than normal. There were papers floating on the wind. These things normally worry me or make me scared. Today they didn’t. Today I smiled and walked on. As I sit here in the cold and look out over the lake I realize, I am happy. I turn a deaf ear to the cruel laughing of the world. The loneliness I once felt is gone, replaced by this feeling of warmth. There is one thing on my mind through all of this, Steven. I think of what it will be like with him, of the time we will share together, of the obstacles in our path. I love him and would do anything to be his. Now my thought ends as the battery dies on my computer. |
| I never knew what people meant by true love or love at first sight. I never understood loving so much it hurt. I used to think there was no one in the world for me. I was wrong. I found someone that makes me laugh, and cry (tears of happines). I can talk to him for hours (and have). I smile just thinking about him. I don't know how I have fallin so fast but I don't care. I love him, truely love him. He lives a little distance from me but I dont care. I think, no, I KNOW I love him and would do anything to be with him. Distance be damned! (and i will not take anyone talking bad about him.) LOVE YOU BABY! oh and to those who know about Devil Queen's world he has already moved into the castle and is gonna stay! Devil Queen has spoken!!!
