An Open Letter to Readers & Bloggers

Dear Blog-Friends,

Over the last (I think) 3 years, I have enjoyed your company. Better said, because of you, I have had more courage and self-appreciation.

It is with deep regret that I sadly tell you...I am quitting blogging.

My life is very full now - my daughter, husband, brother, school, dogs, cats, house. I just don't have the time to dedicate to this blog.

I thank all of you for your help and support. Please feel free to comment or email me (if you put your email in a comment, I won't post the comment).

Be Well.

Peace

School, Yule and being Cool

Made you smile, didn't I?!

So, school starts in January. I am having difficulty getting all the people who are paying for this to get their butts in gear! Frustrating waiting for someone to do something that they say "takes only a few minutes". But, I'm patient - more so now than ever!

Yule - festive, gift-giving, eat-too-much! I am hoping to decorate my Altar for this Yule. I have no Yule Log - my fault - so I need to do something! With Parvarti's help, the Tree is glowing with white lights this year.

The event that will take place upon Parvarti's other parent either happened yesterday or will happen today. I am doing my best to keep my stomach where it belongs and my glee under control. If the parent is smart, he will just say "OK" and let us move on. If the parent lets himself to be (again) controlled, this will be longer and more expensive than it needs to be. Yes, I will update you!

In the Spirit of Yule, I give you this picture.



Peace.

How's your faith these days, Father?

Stigmata

I got a sign this morning. I'm just not sure what it means.

I have chosen many Totems. My insecurities give me license to do this.

One of my selected Totems showed up in one of our trees this morning. This is unusual as our land is not accommodating to the creature. She could have been passing through, but, she stayed for quite a while. Seeing her made my heart lighten and my spirit lift.

Now, why was she here?

Witty Quips

...I don't have one for today.

After a long weekend and re-bearing myself yesterday, I awoke today to a gorgeous Sunrise, Phoebe singing, new green Buds, and lanky Deer.

I thank Rah, Ryha, and Artemis for the Beauty they have given us!

Peace

And in the maddness of fools, I walk silently

I'm so very happy the weather has "broken".
The buds of the trees and shrubs, the love songs of birds, the return of green to the ground carpet.
I'm ready to sit in the energy spaces of my yard and absorb the newness of the dawn.

Peace
