Sleepy Josey with her “security bone”. ::chuckles:: She has to pick
just the right bone to bring with her to nap in my lap at night.
::laughs:: I love that silly ass dog.
So I ended up doing 7 hours at the F. Library today. The class that
was at the last part of the shift I meant to do, ran late, and I stayed
to help John A. put away the laptops and mice used for the class, so I
was there until 9 pm. BUT, that means I am closing out February with
40% of my Practicum hours completed. Woohoo! Now I just need to update
my spreadsheet and send it to my Practicum Professor.
The class I stayed for was on how to use the laser cutter and milling
machine at the Library. Sooooooo friggin’ cool! I really want to make
some sigils in wood to use in my Craft. And they would make cool gifts
for my Pagan friends as well. Just gotta find the right designs and
the wood that I want to use. From there, the rest is pretty easy. I
will try both the laser engraver and the milling machine to see which
look I like better. After that, man, the sky is the limit!
And I had a brilliant idea. The Local Library has an embroidery
machine as well as a sewing machine. I want to make a red cloth pouch
to put the Red Fast Luck Oil in while it is charging. And I could
embroider various money, prosperity, and luck symbols on the pouch in
gold thread. How cool would that be? And I would not mind making a
pouch/wrap for my wand and my athame. Though I get the feeling that the
wand wrap needs to be made of leather, and I am not sure yet if the
Local Library’s sewing machines can handle leather. If not, then that
will have to be done the old fashion way of needle and thread. Talk
about a labor of love there.
I received my email today from the High Priestess. My first class is
March 17th at 5 pm. And we are also doing an Ostara/Full Moon ritual
after class. And I am expected to have “ritual wear” of some sort that
is not street clothing. Eek! For my rituals, I typically wear a black
skirt and the black spaghetti top. Which, I mean, eventually this coven
does practice certain rituals sky-clad (aka, in the nude), so I guess I
should start getting used to being a bit more “exposed” than I usually
am. I will probably take my black cardigan just in case I get cold.
Though, the top I wear for ritual is not exactly built for a girl as top
heavy as I am and the straps really dig into my shoulders. I will
probably hit Old Navy and see if I can find another top that will work
better and won’t hurt as much. ::chuckles:: I am so excited though.
