So, in trying to organize my thoughts as to how to write a book on Practical Paganism, I planted stuff in my vegetable garden ( Read more... )

It's raining today, the garden needs it, but I sure don't!  Cool and gloomy.  Yuck.

I was going to plant tomatoes today, we're trying mostly heirlooms this year.  I got curious about them when I was talking about them with the proprietor of Hillside Feed and Seed, George.  He's a nice man, very gentle and funny, obviously the ex-hippie he is, and ( Read more... )

....plus a bit of free press for Our own THL Cai Dubhglas, I hope he doesn't mind.  He has his own webste:   Bunisher Metal Works at http://www.bunisher.com/.  Got to tell you, kiddos, the guy's good.  He does metal working of many varieities, not just pointy and protective things.  I may even hire him for a project or two myself someday.....  * ( Read more... )

.........when you start writing a story, thinking that it's going to go one way, and it winds up going in a completely different direction?

Now, if I can just get the important papers in the right files, and figure out a way to organize the ( Read more... )

In spite of the fact that my body is not my best friend today, I'm feeling ambitious today!  So I think after I get the dusting, etc. done, I'm going to........sew!  Yes!  I know!  Gasp!  Don't know exactly which project I'm going to tackle yet, but by Arachne, I'm going to get  something accomplished.  Even if it kills me....or ties my hands in ( Read more... )

Normally, I don't mess with New Year's resolutions. They're usually impossible to achieve, or else too cheesy for words; it's just not worth messing with in my book. But this year, as I enter my second half-century (Well, I hope that's what I'm doing), I've decided to change my usual activity this time of year and make some (again, hopefully) ( Read more... )

Greetings from the realm of Morpheus!  I don't know what the hell is wrong with me, but all I want to do is sleep!  I've been like this for two days now!  It's ridiculous!  I speculated on my other blog that perhaps Alien Space Bats are aiming a special Sleep Ray at me to deprive me of all my ideas and ambitions, thereby depriving me of any chance ( Read more... )
