Self Control
Funny how some folks have no self control. Also how difficult is it to not post publicly about every little thing in their lives online? Is it a cry for attention? Is it public therapy? Is it a need for approval and affirmation? Gosh! You would think that after a few years of "oh you poor thing, you seem to be handling it sooo well!" they would get ( Read more... ) -
Dumb Supper Tradition
Samhain has always been a night of contemplation and gravity for me. For most of my young childhood it was costumes and candy. When I became a teen, and we had moved out to the country in the mid '70s, our family began the tradition of the Dumb Supper. This has been a yearly practice for me since then ( Read more... ) -
Sitwells
I went to Sitwells tonight to meet with Jake. It was interesting getting caught up on where he is at. He'll be graduating on December the 10th. Not that far away ( Read more... ) -

Writer's Block: MAKE IT STOP!
No matter how many times we played Voltaire's "When you're Evil" today, we just couldn't shake the ear bug! We played the Dr. Who and the Nightmare Before Christmas versions on YouTube, and just an mp3 cut. I do, however, think I know most of the lyrics now. The song will haunt my dreams for a long long while. -
Update on my would be robber

He replaced the broken one, and the one on the street side of the house. I'll get to the other two before the winter really sets in ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I need to vent just a little. I came home tonight after it was dark to find a man kicking in one of my basement windows. Luckily I was just across the street. My first word was "HEY! STOP THAT!" I walked quickly across the street up into my yard along the side of the house. I saw a man laying on his side next to the basement window he had just ( Read more... ) -
Mabon
I want to wish you all a very happy Mabon! Tonight is also the Hunter's full moon. If the sky is clear Jupiter and Saturn will be visible.
May the Harvests you have worked for be abundant!
