Easter Weekend, preparing for Beltane
Well, after a good day of hefty work on Saturday, lifting logs, hauling rocks with my bronco, I have official received poison ivy on both arms. Most of it seems to be between my fingers which is probably one of the most annoying places to scratch. But it’s well worth it (I’m saying that now..)
I felt oddly enough at home when I was at the farm. Reaching the top of the hill (which is the highest point in the county - hence, Ed’s Farms), and looking out over everything was just amazing. I’d love to just lay there one night looking up at the stars. It is unfortunate that there are one or two people in the group there that I can’t seem to get along with or feel comfortable around. It tends to ruin the mood.
My sister stopped by yesterday to give me another late birthday gift. It’s this steel lamp with a little socket in the center for a tea-light candle and a beautiful silver beaded lampshade. I convinced her father to let her stay over and watch Harry Potter 2 with me while he ran some errands. Unfortunately my mom caught whiff of this when she called his house and his nephew said that Sister was over here. See, mom had called previously (which you can read in the previous entry), saying that Vernon wasn’t allowing her to see Sister at all this weekend. I told her that I probably wouldn’t be seeing her either. Little did I know that they were going to stop by and I was going to have Sister all day Sunday *chuckle*. So mom calls and leaves a nasty message asking why I lied to her and basically saying that I’m destroying her relationship with Sister. Go figure.
You know it’s not like she bothered to call in the AM to wish Sister a Happy Easter. She had to wait until 4 or 5pm to do it, by that time the day was already over and Sister was already on her way home.
Ex #4 is very ill right now. Saturday was supposed to technically be a ‘make-up’ day for him missing out on my birthday. Obviously that didn’t work out. And he didn’t even bother to call me Sunday at all. He hopped online for a few minutes to get some Final Fantasy 10 tips for his sister, so I know he was up and about doing something. He swore he’d call before he went to bed. And he didn’t.
I honestly don’t know what to think. I certainly am not blaming him for being sick. But I don’t know how to let him know how disappointed I get without making him feel guilty. All I want is when he says he’s going to do something, to just do it. Saturday was an exception because he was sick. But I’m talking about in general. This happens too frequently and it’s really starting to bother me. I hope he feels better soon, and I hope things between us get better then.
I changed the layout for my guestbook a bit, need to tweak it some, maybe change the colors, but it just needed something different. I was going to add some more of my music but I think my mic is busted. I’ll see what I can do though, I’ve been itching to finish a few things on here.

The new guestbook layout is gorgeous, Crys - but poison ivy! Oh dear. I have serious poison ivy issues; I think I’m allergic to it. I’ve learned that taking really hot showers is a way to alleviate some of the itchiness. Hang in there!

Hey if you still got the itch to change things around (pun intended) then you know where to find me if you need help!

That’s evil when I’m suffering so, *cry*
