Prolonged Absense

I am sorry I have been gone for so long. I will probably be gone for a long while to come.

Rosh Hashana was a blast. I loved being at services. Also, I spent time with friends and their family. All in all, it was very enjoyable. This also marked the one year anniversary of my decision to convert to Judaism.

Yom Kippur was interesting. Long and interesting. I spent most of the time praying or sleeping during the fast.

Succos, despite a bit of showers, it was great eating in the succah. Also, it was another holiday spent with friends.

Things are a bit tough. I am doing okay. School and work dominates most of my time. Every night I am busy beyond belief. I still have my staff to finish. I have to figure out how to get the super glue residue off. I have a feeling I will be playing with nail polish remover to do so.

Today, I finally got my stuff out of storage. There is stuff in there still, but I managed to get the stuff that I wanted. I now have my grandmother's china, my prom and semi dress, my dolls and other breakables. I am very fortunate that a friend of mine helped me, otherwise I wouldn't have managed to get any of it completed. At the moment my car is full of stuff. So, over the next couple of days I am going to be busy trying to figure out where to put all that stuff in my apartment.

Well, I probably will not be back for a while. I will try. Until then, Be Well!

Staff Works

YAY!!!

A year ago, I bought a staff at the NY Ren Faire. Later that season at the PA Ren Faire, it went boom and the pretty crystal on top went smashed. I finally got over to Lost River Caverns and got the one thing I could use to fix, crystal cement. Though, I could have used super glue it would not have come out so nice. So, today I found out how much of the globe I would be able to fix and was pleased to find that I could fix most of it. Since, I already knew there would be a rather large hole left, I have been thinking of putting something in the crystal globe. At the Allentown fair I went gem mining with my friend, thus I had a bunch of tiny stones. In addition to that, I purchased more little gem stones at the caverns. I am going to stick them into my staff to create a dragon's den or lair. The stones will be my imaginary little dragon's horde. Heehee. I love being a writer.
By the way, it wasn't so hard to fix it either. It was rather easy despite getting the glue all over my fingers. It isn't as bad as super glue though. I hate super glue on my fingers.

Other than doing school work, I am redecorating. I am playing with my curtains. Fun Fun. In my room, I have a canopy bed which I have curtains surrounding it. I love the effect. It makes me feel all nice and secure in my own little lair.

Well, my school work is calling me. I must go.

'Tis been a while

Sorry about disappearing, it happens. I am currently busy with work and school. With the High Holy days coming up, I am definately going to be out of contact. Anyway, things are going fairly well for me.

Labor Day weekend was nice. I visited the Allentown fair with a friend. That was fun. I always enjoy looking at the arts and crafts, as well as the shows. I did a bit of gemstone mining. I also found a necklace and earring set for my belly dancing costume.

On Labor Day Monday, I went to the PA Ren faire with a bunch of friends. I wore the costume that I made. Shakespeare grabbed me to play Juliet which was fun. I got to apart of the show. I also danced with gypsies as well learning peasant circle dances. All in all it was great.

This week basically has been about school and work. Next week will be about Rosh Hashana. The New Year, that lasts two days. Yay!!

Ok, I've got work to do. Bye-bye.
