Research is fun - well, kind of. I've started the research for my environmental piece. I've found an awesome blog that is run by a guy who lists the latest scare tactics and then shows what the science actually says (there was a piece from March about the claim that our oceans are turning to acid). *rolls eyes*

I've also decided that my Virtues of the Goddess series is not going on my blog afterall. I am going to submit them for publication in Witches&Pagans. I ws going to submit them to SageWoman, but W&P seems to be a larger/more professional operation - and they are the same company, so I don't feel bad choosing them over SageWoman.

( In where I do the rambling ... )

Ok, so website update is mostly done. I am currently working on the new additions to the BoS. I have to write up my Apple visualisation (I'll be putting it up for the C&P crowd before I put it up on the site), and I think I want to write an article as well ... maybe about tools or about the symbolism of the apple.

I worked on Jet's Lessons a bit today, too. Luckily, that I am finding that a lot of my list can be compiled under  larger headings, so I should only have about three or four left. I am gonna take on the hard one later this week (or next weekend).

The weather was gorgeous on Saturday ... kind of cloudy and cold yesterday, and back to gorgeous again this afternoon. I am betting it will be beautiful all the rest of the week because I have to be inside

I have discovered what might be causing my plants to be dying off this year. Apparently, you aren't supposed to water your plants with tap water anymore because of anti-bacterial agents which kill all the bacteria in the soil. So, that sucks hard. I am gonna pick up some plant food in the hopes that I haven't done too much damage to them.

That is about all for now. Tomorrow will be my first day of work out of training. So that is pretty exciting

The pink hair thing didn't work very well.  It ended up looking a bit like paste, so I am now on the look out for pink permanent dye so that I can put in real streaks.  I will not be thwarted!  LOL  Surprisingly enough, pink isn't all that easy to find.  Red, purple, orange are everywhere, but pink - no so much.

I still have a packet of blond dye.  I think I am going to put in light highlights in the mean time while I search the city for the pink.  Now that I think about it, I figure I probably should start working on the outline of my 'Glamour' article.  And maybe write up an update on my self-image spell (and maybe a plan to renew/recharge it).

That is about all that is on my mind right now.  It has been a very lazy day for me.  The days are starting to have that feeling of summer vacation.  I miss that.  Time to visit the farm markets and the local wineries.
