I don't believe that I've posted since February. In fact, I haven't been in the basement since just after Road Runner was installed. I keep meaning to come down here to file paperwork, set up my altar and get the craft room cleaned out yet again, but something always seems to crop up and take up my time ( Read more... )

I've been getting out for walks with the warmer weather. Some days I go by myself for a little meditation time and sometimes I have company. Haley and Daniel accompanied me today. Yesterday we went for a family walk at Beaver Lake. We saw a lot of tracks but no animals except chipmunks and squirrels ( Read more... )

I've been feeling very blah lately. There are so many things that I want to do, so many things that I want to get done, but no umph to get started. I could sit and stare at the walls for hours. Everything is an effort and  I could nap all day long. I just want to hibernate ( Read more... )

While most are tired of winter, and usually I am too, I am actually enjoying this one. Accepting each season's gifts was something I learned when I learned about the wheel of the year. Knowing what to expect next and where I am in the year somehow make the passing of the year easier. I used to stress out about this time each year as this is when ( Read more... )

We had a very nice holiday. Quiet. Peaceful. Relaxed. No having to hustle and bustle off to any relatives house and no rushed pick up for anyone coming to our house. It was just us and it made for quite a nice relaxing day. The kids were thrilled with the gifts they got and once everything was opened, Daniel went to the basement to play with all of ( Read more... )

School has been cancelled for the last 2 classes due to the snow. One half of me is happy because the final in med-surge was to be on Friday and pharmacology on Monday and the teacher gave us just one day to learn the endocrine system and diabetes head to toe on top of studying for the final which also included the blood and lymphatic system, ( Read more... )

Today has been one of those days where nothing I touch goes right and everything goes wrong. I'm frustrated and need to take a break from life for a moment. I thought I'd do a tarot reading online and that only made me feel worse. The Gods kicked me while I was down and it was not the soothing comfort I was seeking. Sometimes it's just best to ( Read more... )

Brrrrrrr. The frost is definitely nipping at the nose and toes tonight. Despite the frigid temps, evenings like tonight are winter evenings I enjoy - the moon just peeking out from behind clouds that scuttle across it and the snow crunching underfoot. A little bit'll do ya and it's time to head inside for something warm to drink and a cozy blanket ( Read more... )

I cannot believe that it is already December. It seems like it was just Samhain. My how this year has flown by ( Read more... )

In my effort to reduce the amount of clutter and stuff around the house as well as become more organized, I have begun a new project. Organizing my meals/recipes. There's always the "what's for dinner" quandary most nights, especially the busy ones. That can lead us to eat out instead of making dinner at home. So, I've devised our meals into ( Read more... )
