my book collection

my book collection

Originally uploaded by Moonslark

I admit it.
I have an addiction.
I love books. Not the kind with words in them… the kind that are blank, that are just aching to be filled.
I love journal books. I love diary books. I love sketch books. I love notebooks. I love blank books.
I like them big and tiny, hard bound, soft bound, traditionally bound, spiral bound, white pages, coloured papers, designs, inspirational quotes, blank, lined, and quadruled.

Why?
That’s harder to explain… it has just ALWAYS been this way for me. From my earliest memories I have always ached to have paper with me (and pens, but that’s another entry).
I used to doodle at school, to keep my attention.
I used to write stories and poetry.
I used to chart things.

I don’t do these things anymore, and the books remain (for the most part) blank and unused. And yet the collection grows… from the huge 14″ x 17″ artist sketchbooks with the thick white paper, to the pocket sized Moleskine volants and the Yoga Cats note book, the collection contains anything interesing or pretty or intreging — anything that I find that I HOPE that will inspire me to doodle, draw, colour, scribble, write, note, chart, or otherwise spark the creativity that is currently locked inside me…

But don’t worry…
GirlChild is currently eyeing up the collection…

In her mind it is her inheritance… :)

Good to know that the passion will be passed on…

Let’s get CREATIVE!

February6
Time to get creative!!
So I have been feeling a little too blue lately, a little lonely and a little upset over the final descent of my life from a married woman to a 35-year-old, single, divorced, mother of 2 with no prospects for the future (laugh)…
 
And I feel badly about that, because that is not who I want to become — as much as that is also an apt description of who and what I am, I am also:
  • beautiful
  • sexy
  • vivacious
  • lively
  • intelligent
  • educated
  • well read
so I am determined not to worry about what the future will hold in terms of titles. I will be okay no matter what… a cat always lands on her feet, after all.
 
At least I’m a divorcee and not a spinster, eh? (although a crazy cat lady I might be, especially since the cats are trying to drive me crazy!)
 
And since my life is likely, at least for the foreseeable future, to be solitary I should definately find ways to fill up my life so I don’t feel the loneliness of living alone (I’m not alone, I do have RGG, but I do LIVE alone 50% of the time and that is causing the loneliness right now).
 
To ease these feelings I have decided to start the following projects:
  • return to the land of podcasts after a 3 month hiatus, although I am not sure what it is that I will talk about with any relative authority
  • clean and declutter my house (which is slowly proceeding)
  • scrapbooking
  • knitting socks
  • potential return to the IC3 project!
 
So… hopefully I will have pictures to show soon… maybe even some of myself being sweet and adorable (laugh)…

This is the blog of a 30-something woman. I am a single mother of 2 children (7 year old son, 5 year old daughter). I am a Solitary Wiccan. I am walking a Pagan Path. I am separated and going through a divorce. I am a geek girl. I am a nature’s child. I am a seeker. I am a talker. I am sometimes jubilant, sometimes creative, sometimes anxious, sometimes bitter… I run the gamut of emotions as I go through walking not only my Pagan Path but my everyday daily LIFE Path. 

My interests include creativity, art, crafts, magick, nature, spirituality, writing, collecting blank books, pens and office supplies, technology, myths, massive multi-user online role playing games (WOW, Second Life), kids, colours… hell… I might write on ANYTHING that strikes my fancy.
