It has been a month. School is out and... I have a summer assignment. That I am kind of avoiding while doing my own personal research. I am putting together my Book of Shadows (BOS) and it is kind of long grueling work that can't be done all at once. Information has to be gathered, written down, organized.... I did find a great site for creative ideas.

May 28, and I will be free....for less than two weeks. After that, I will be volunteering at the local library. Which is fun. I really like being there, its nice and quiet...even when the youth section is stuffed to overflowing with kids. And the other girls that volunteer are fun, too. I am the oldest volunteer there, but that's fine and dandy.

I haven't ever attempted one before...but now is the time for me to try. And what more - I'm not using a real pattern.Why? Because I'm not. I don't have any real reason why I'm not...except that I tend to do things the hard way. No offense meant, but I think it might have something to do with hanging around to many Floridians.

I don't talk to people, and I don't go anywhere. I sit and listen to my music while hitting the stumble button on my internet browser over and over and over again. Tonight, I remembered something that I stumbled upon awhile ago. It was directions to make a plastic 'yarn' from plastic grocery bags. The actual crocheting is harder than it looks, but I did just barely http://lifeofthenotsoaverage.blogspot.com/2009/05/friday-nights.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Ruth)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5850106705900205477.post-3707484895686858640Thu, 30 Apr 2009 01:32:00 +00002009-04-29T22:12:37.047-04:00crochetschoolSo...it has been like four weeks...I think. I'm not planning on checking the dates any time soon. Maybe I should. I should also probably start writing this more often because...well it is Days in the life.....and well...not very day-like.School sucks at this point.

I haven't even been busy. Just tired. Nothing exciting has really happened to me lately. Maybe that is why I haven't written. I did take my last ever FCAT for my school career.

Not So Average American Girl....that's a mouthful. I am no social butterfly...wonder how many people I know would stumble across this and say "Do I know her?" But then, maybe I am known by more people than I realize and this is practically pointless. Who knows, really.I enjoy reading, writing, and listening to music.
