bittersweet

We went to the going away party, it was really fun and bittersweet. I've had my mind on packing so much that it's really starting to hit me, the people I will miss after we move.

And my dear friends here, (in town) how I will miss them. I've been trying to see everyone, and I'll see a couple of my friends over these next two days, it will be hard. It was hard tonight...such a bittersweet time. I said good bye to one of my close friends last weekend, but it was still far enough away that it hadn't really sunk in yet... now it is. I feel weepy.

So much to look forward to, and yet, a bit to be sad to leave behind.

Cunksi and her Ate are fast asleep. I can't get my mind to quit, so i'm awake. Lots to do tomorrow. Then we'll load the truck. Sniff......

i should go try to sleep.

sunny day

The sun is shining and we are almost all packed, life is good!
I'm excited to start this new chapter of our lives.

stupid jacked up world

It's raining and gray, and we're supposed to get snow.
That depresses me. I want spring, and green and warm breezes.

I am really depressed by the fact that in this day and age, parents can treat their children horrifically and not have ANY consequences. Short of setting them on fire, the "powers that be" will still return them to their unstable, psychotic parents, and let them continue to live in violent situations. 

It all makes me want to cry. It's all so unfair. and WRONG. and such BULLSHIT.

My plans

I think I am going to go to medical school, or get a PHD in clinical Psych.
 
My friend and I were sitting around talking and she has informed me that these are good choices.

How ironic, I'd never seriously considered either one before, and now it is like, why not.

  So, here I go.

Ti-red

I'm tired. I wanna go to bed. Cunksi however, has bumped her bed time back two hours, but I wanna sleep now.
I've gotten into this weird pattern of falling asleep with her, then waking up for three or four hours in the middle of the night.
We're supposed to have snow.
(*&^%$$#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am SO OVER WINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And now, I'm over this post.
later.

Not

Well, there were no t-storms, and today is blustery and cold.
  Cunksi is sleeping right now, and probably will for awhile, since she skipped her morning nap.
Time for me to write.

Here comes the rain again.....

they say we will have a thunderstorm tonight... our first of the season. How very exciting! Mihigna and I love thunderstorms... well, he more than I, the boominess and sudden crashes frighten me a bit... I'm afeared of getting struck by lightening. But it makes snuggling up to him all the nicer.  I like them during the day.

The first t-storm means that spring is really here. The return of the thunder beings... in Lakota culture, we have a celebration for it and everything.

I'm excited. Changing seasons always excite me. Spring is wonderful, rebirth, renewal, clearing and cleansing.  Spring means time to shake off the dust of winter and get realigned.

And now, mihigna and I have all these new things happening. Soon we will have a new home, new adventures, new surroundings... all sorts of newness, coming up like daffodils.  And this year, we have a wee one to share it all with. (Did I mention I LOVE being an Ina?)

Part of the newness is that I'm going to make it ...try to make it, more regular that I'm posting, and not be quite so absent for so long.
But for now, kiohphya.

spring

is around the corner, baby girl is getting more mobile, it's all so exciting!!!
