Oh my gosh! That ginger sunscreen pic! XD

I'm very fair skinned. The worst sunburn I ever got came after a bottle of sun lotion and 6 hours on the lake around here. Oh! And I was under a boat's awning-thingy and a blanket for the last three of those hours. xD

Yay for Gingers... Hahah!

[Taylani]

yes I have to lather sunscreen on me if I even THINK of going outside. I got glow-in-the-dark skin its so pale I swear

Ha! Feeling a certain sense of accomplishment. Zeltiva is fully graded. Not a single grade request has been left ungraded muahaha. Just a note on my grading standpoint. If your wondering why you don't get a full +5 from me from one thing but you did from another etc and so forth. Some skills are super easy to learn so I tend to give more leeway to those. Things like socialization, Observation, things we do without even realizing we do it. Other things are not so easy to learn, even if you have a natural talent for them, these tend to be skills like Reimancy, drawing, the more active skills rather then passive skills.

I also don't grade much on grammatical issues. If your not using text speak and making a common sense effort in using appropriate punctuation etc and so forth then there won't be a detriment to your grade. Now if I get this "u c me csting fire @ u" yeah my brain will explode and you won't get a point in reimancy It is basic common sense. Ending sentences with periods, spelling out words rather then abbreviating them, and so forth. It would be highly hypocritical of me if I were to start noting grammar errors when my own grammar leaves much to be desired.

*cackles evilly and hurls another grade at you*

[Taylani]

Yes I decided now have a love hate relationship with you Reina...prepare for 3 more solo's to be posted to the Endrykas thread...*grins evilly*

and on that note I have to say probbaly not, I am kind of all fall-ed out on Taylani. She has had such a transition over the season, that its getting hard to go back and forth from end of fall to beginning of fall because there is such an emotional topsy turvy thing happening. So I am eagerly awaiting Winter season

[Taylani]

hehe your welcome Sinoa, I enjoyed getting to know the characters there

Ok so else site I run a moderation team. It is not an RP site so there is no Storytelling involved, it is simply a team that make sure that the forums, the games, and the other various activities that are user run are done so within site TOS.

I am a firm believer that site staff should be courteous and polite in all cases. That does not mean that one can not do things such as close threads, take away posting privileges, or even ban them from site if the offense warrants but one can do so without being impolite or making the moderators as a whole look like bullies. However there are times when my patience is tested.

Example is when someone repeatedly posts things fifty times against the rules, but its a different rule that they are breaking each time, and its their first day...makes me want to hit them with the stupid stick and just make it official.

Today's plans. Sunday School and Church in about 20 minutes, that is always fun. I love my church, I am truly blessed to have such a tight knit family that can really keep my spirits up. Even though it means I get out of the house a lot more then I am generally comfortable with, it gives me a great outlet.

It is snowing like crazy, my kids are loving it. I am just glad it is not ice. The system over our little section of Oklahoma is massive but we are on the snow portion rather then ice. Last time we had a system this massive we were under the ice and we were without power for 6 days. My almost 4 year old was only one month old then..it was yikes! moment.

After that I plan on coming back and hitting up Syliras grade thread pretty hard to try and knock some of them out for the ST's over there. This is subject to change depending on kids mood and husbands mood (I can't grade when either are cranky because it is too distracting even for my hyper active mind lol)

A picture from my front porch two minutes ago. Its still snowing.
