good luck to all of her (insane) friends in the home stretch. Hope you make your goals, or if not, wrote some stuff you're happy with.

I went to Matt's sister's house for a few hours yesterday, bringing bread and dips. They welcomed me warmly, and his folks, whom I had met once previously, did the same. I was a nervous wreck, but worried for no good reason. It was easy. They are lovely people. His niece and nephew are completely charming. I spent about half an hour on the phone ( Read more... )

Today, I am grateful for my goddess group. I've practiced once a month with these women for 3 years now. The friendships are precious to me, and the practices I've done have helped to make me the woman I am today. I've learned and grown so much by my commitment to this group.

I'm staffing again this weekend. This is one of my real passions. I love helping women to open to themselves and their femininity. It is a joy and a privilege ( Read more... )
