Planning: Family and School

I'm planning a trip, it's up in the air at this point. But I'm going to put in for the time off, today.

Two trips, one in March and one in May, both to Wisconsin.

I need to email my aunt and my cousin, and see about hooking up w/ one of them and doing some family tree research, which would be the basis of the trip, and maybe even see the two schools I've been interested in seeing in Madison.

We shall see. Right now things are just in the planning stages.

I'm thinking about the leaving Friday after work, and coming back on Tues/Wed. But again, I gotta look at a few things, ask about coming in early and leaving about an hour early and friday so I can leave either before or just as traffic is starting.

But the dates I'm looking at right now, are St Patties day Weekend/following week, and Memorial Day weekend/following week.

I need to find a place to stay, and set some things up, today would be time off scheduling.

That feeling you get...

I ordered Druid Priestess by Emma Restall Orr, off ebay at the end of this last month.

I started reading it, while I was out at my Aunt's place. This morning I was reading bef. the shower, and during the reading, when the Author calls for help during an interview, reading that passage I got a my pringly feeling all the way down my head and on to my shoulders and arms.

It made me think of what happened when I had my first Reiki Session. Except here, I felt the pringly feeling all along the right side after the Reiki Session. Kristin the Reiki Master w/ one of her students, also a master did the session at the Twin Cities Yule Fest, put on by CUUPS, in 2004. Kristin had used a tuning fork, and I haven't had that kind of reaction to it, so I decided to go ahead and

It was then and shortly after that I decided that Reiki was one of the paths for me. And the following January 2005, I became level I and II certified. Reiki has been phanominal in mediations and healing since.

The following Spring in 2006, I rcvd ART level III.

I've decided that I will forgo the Reiki Level IV til after I go to school.
