C and I are engaged! :)
So much has happened lately. We went to Belize! (I'll post pics later.) And while we were there, C proposed. We're hoping to get married this summer. Man, I had no idea how much planning went into these things. YOWSA! But I'm going to have fun with it. Once I get the big things pinned down at least! :)
Happy Tuesday all!

Well, I successfully completed my diving classwork and poolwork. Now I have to do an open water dive to get certified. I must say, while the classwork was a breeze (never mind my complaining all week about doing homework) and I only missed one on the final, the poolwork was TOUGH.
We started out swimming 4 laps, then treading water 10 minutes, easy-peasy. Then we suited up with the air tanks and other paraphenalia - good grief!! Lots of equipment. And putting a regulator in your mouth and attempting to breathe while going underwater, very freaky at first.
We had to simulate all the different ascents, from normal to complete emergency. It was interesting and tough. I was zonkered at the end of it.
ahhhh scuba. we shall see how i do on the open water dives.

So yesterday I started my homework for my Scuba Diving class this weekend... I'm excited that I'll be certified to dive for C and my's beach trip, but I'm not so excited about a weekend of claaaassss (said with nerdy nasal drawl). **sigh*
But I have been getting a ton done lately, I've got peas, forget me nots, alyssum, tea roses and many other lovelies starting to sprout in various places at the house. My mom gave me some starts of different plants (coneflower, lamb's ear, etc.). So barring any incidents (ie. forgetting to water them for weeks) they should be lovely this summer.
I finished my illustration for Dirt Rag, but I don't know if it will get published or not. Once it does (or I find out it won't) I'll post it. :)
Happy Tuesday everyone!
