Happy New Year!
Well, crap.
Today is the last day of the holidays.
I don't like seeing them end this year, they've been so pleasant, and the time off from work has been exquisite (7 and a half days, all together, over the course of 2 weeks).
But tomorrow is Monday. Just a boring old Monday, with nothing special to look forward to for weeks to come.
This happened yesterday, though:
This was part of my Yule gift from Dave. Actually, since we share our bank account, it was my gift from me, too....
I have wanted a red winged black bird tattoo for a very long time, and the woman who is my sister in this desire, one of my best friends, is going to get one just like it as soon as she has her tax refund in the spring.
We had wanted to get them done at the same time, together, but first, she moved away from Illinois to Michigan, and then, a few years after that, I moved away from Illinois to Oklahoma.
She found the basis for the image on line, and I loved it. She has pictures of mine and will get an exact copy in the same place (inner left forearm).
I like that it's simple and stylized.
In other news, my eyebrows are getting thicker, so that I can see them a little, and the fringe of eyelashes is also thickening. I really hope they don't all fall out again.
Today will be about staying home (for me. Dave is doing a few errands) and cooking, cleaning, and squeezing the last bit of down time out of the long weekend that I can.
After he gets home, we will finish a pretty thorough house cleaning, and then we will do a pretty intense house blessing, to remove all of the "residue" from the last year of stress, fear, anxiety, and just overall bad juju.
Clean that out of the house, and invite in the peace and sanctuary that is supposed to be IN our home.
Hoping you, gentle reader, have a good day, too.
