just need a breather

Since my last blog post here, I feel like I haven't had even a few hours to sit still and breathe.  I'm sadly in the same frantic and worn-out state of mind that I was in when I decided to start this blog, and I feel like I need its healing properties more than ever now.  However, the next 2 days here might prove to be a nice respite.  I just completed a long and tedious load of marking yesterday so just for now until Friday when I teach a full day of class and pick up another load of assignments to mark, I can focus on the meditative bliss of my writing.

My mind is in a million pieces right now, especially about my perfume business.  I feel as though I have so many good friends for whom I usually rely on, but they seem out of my reach as I have just spent the last few months gone to ground with a gruelling work schedule.  My perfume sales in July were phenomenal and I have it to thank for new friends and a wardrobe full of new oils to play with, but August through September, I saw a whole lot of tumbleweeds.  When I'm desperate for answers, I begin to wonder if maybe I have incurred the wrath of the Gods by arrogantly naming my perfumes after their namesake?  I have a much too vivid imagination for my own good sometimes, but please comment below if you know of a reliable cattle ranch where I may obtain a handsome bovine to sacrifice to the Gods and regain their favour.
