I'm out of my funk and I'm getting more and more inspired for my silicone tail! I slept over at my best friend's house and we are going to go out and explore Old/Historic Folsom today! More good news is i got a huge pay check and I can buy some more resin for my scale molds!

Awesome! Can't wait to see this! I'm glad you're out of your funk.

That's cool I hope you have a great time. Business or fun? If it is for business I hope you are able to make time for fun.

All of you posted good things today. I'm proud of all of you. JoAnn Fabric hired me on the spot 2 days ago knowing I'm going to go broke with the discount on buy fabric to learn how to make fabric tail

I am almost done with my student teaching program and I just received ALL of the documentation I have been waiting on! I am all set to get my teaching credential! Finally! This was THE HARDEST thing I have ever done, and if you know me irl, you know how hard i worked and how much I failed before I was able to succeed. I am so unapologetically proud of myself. And while it was the most strenuous and difficult thing I have done, it has also been the most rewarding and fun.
SO CONGRATULATIONS, ME! YOU DID IT!!!

I had my first powered aircraft flight today!! My instructor was really nice, he let me take off, land and try some turns and stuff. He basically let me fly the plane for the whole flight! We also did some stunts like the barrel roll, stall turn and the classic loop. I can get my recreational pilot's licence at 16 so I'm working towards it! Flying the aircraft felt very natural for me and I was perfectly relaxed

Yay!

This is great. When i read 16, my mouth drop. That is ultra amazing you can do that at such a young age. Seriously impressive.

LOL WHAT DIALECT IS THAT?!

Congratulations on those teaching credentials! That's such an incredible achievement.

Wow! Flying an aircraft sounds like an amazing experience.


This song always makes me so happy whenever I hear it:


I also just love it when my kitty comes to visit me and sits on my desk (even if she sits on all of my school work!).

I'm going to an extreme sports camp in a few weeks! My scout troop put together a list of activities for our summer campout, and I get to do water skiing, paddleboarding, kayaking, boating, mountain biking, and also long range rifle shooting. And I got my Life Scout award a few days ago, so I'm on track to earn my Eagle Scout Award! Less than 6 months until I can get it now.

Just got back my lab results from blood tests, and I gotta celebrate that I've got almost perfect labs. Vegetarians gotta watch their protein, but my protein levels are well within the recommended range, as our my cholesterol, A1C, kidneys, calcium, and more. My blood pressure's a little on the lower-than-ideal side, but not dangerously so.

We found a new place to live and it is a house in sight of the shore. <3

The beach is a 2 minute walk from the front steps.

And I'm so excited to decorate for Halloween when the time comes!

Gosh that must be expensive I live on Coronado island near the beach here too. But I'm renting.

We're renting, too. And while it is expensive, we got super lucky in that this landlord could easily charge another thousand for the place in the current market, and isn't. We signed a year lease, so we're at least locked in to the good price we got. We looked at several houses and some condos, and the prices are all outrageous.

I actually looked in Coronado- I really love it there. But, my husband will already have quite the commute to his office from where we're moving, and adding the extra time to Coronado, esp on the 5 at traffic time? I can't even ask him to do that. We visit a lot, take walks around the Del, eat at The Tavern. I love how clean Coronado is. lol And the beach are near where his office is in Carlsbad... coastal north county is far more expensive than coastal San Diego proper. We couldn't find anything up near the office. And I want to be back where the places I love are, anyway.

Incidentally, we've been looking for several months. All the houses (what few are available, thanks to illegal short term vacation rentals destroying communities all over San Diego) and condos are around the same price range right now, unless you want to go far into east county and even there the prices are pretty bad for anything over 800 sq ft. San Diego rents are just awful right now, with no sign of relenting.
