Who am I
I'm in my middle to late 40s, married to my wife Triona in a hand fasting last Samhain (2010). I have three adult children, one Siberian Husky, two cats, and we live in a rented coach house.
More About Me
I'm someone who was never very good in school, but who in her late 30s early 40s went to university and achieved a BA and Masters. I procrastinate more than is humanly possible and although in the past I have had the reputation for not finishing anything I started, I have since then, conquered it, it may take a while, but I do get there in the end.

taking a deep breathe you walk on your day deciding what to do and what to move on with. momentum sometimes takes a while to build up but when built flows strongly..

Sounds pretty good so far. I am also procrastinating. I have tons of homework and my apartment to clean but yet I'm on the computer. ;) Perhaps a cup of tea would help. We will see, lol.
WickedWiseOwl
Well good morning Abydos! Nice to see you back. Welcome home! :)

Abydos6Gathering together the stuff to make the Yule gifts baskets, off to Dublin soon to pick up some more bits and bobs, bemoaning the fact that what we need isn't anywhere near us lol. Though, it does give us a chance to go to Starbucks...love the coffee.

You know, here in NYC, there is a Starbucks in every corner. No wonder so many Americans are unhealthy... Too many venti caramel lattes with extra, whip. My favorite drinks are the seasonal ones! >_o GINGERBREAD LATTE!
