Opening your Blog for Comments
A couple of days ago I learned that people on WordPress can’t leave comments on my blogs easily. Yesterday I figured out how to fix that, so I thought I would share it with everyone who has a Blogger blog. (I just like saying Blogger blog.) Go into your blog and click Settings on the…

Yesterday I Took a Nap
I have been so tired with my job(s) lately, and very overwhelmed with the number of things going on in my life. So yesterday I took an afternoon nap. And it was SO good. The laundry still got done (mostly, I’ll throw in the socks in a minute), and the dishes all got done. The…

Finding Creative Joy in Every Day Tasks
Today we had to make a huge order of sub sandwiches at work. They were at least a foot long, and each one had to be cut into 6 pieces. At first the manager wanted to wrap them (in plastic wrap) like we usually do, but I pointed out that there was no way I…

I’m a Big Girl Now
Tonight a lady I knew came up and showed me a picture of her boyfriend and asked, “What do you think?” I think I felt like I had gotten kicked in the stomach. What do you say to someone when such a terrible feeling washes over you and you want to start screaming, “Run…

I Quit
Today I quit my job. It was a bad job, and I don’t want to go into details, but trust me on this. It was just bad. When I told my boss he said, “Oh? So you’re just gonna give up?” Give up? No. I need to let this go so I have space for…

New projects are started and the smell of fresh-cut lawns permeates. Spring also means Spring Cleaning. For many people this is a…

Rest Day
I became ill yesterday, most likely from something I ate. So I am taking a rest day. I tend to take a lot of showers and baths when I don’t feel well. Something about the water (and the heat) is very comforting to me. I especially like being in the shower because I can envision white…

Magickal Gardening
I finally got around to planting some vegetables the other day. I love being able to grow my own food, and it’s very practical as well. For example, red peppers are $2.49 each at the grocery store right now (and most of the year). I bought a red pepper plant for $1.99, and I will…

There’s No Such Thing as Fluffy Bunnies
The term “Fluffy Bunnies” has been thrown around in Pagan circles, and especially in Wiccan covens, far too often in the past few years. In general it is a derogatory term used to describe a practitioner who is often young, inexperienced, and doing things “wrong.” I’m not exactly sure where this elitest attitude came from,…
