Lessons Learned

Today my daughter - Adelynn Grace, 5 years old - graduated from Kindergarten. I helped her get dressed and brought her outside, tears in my eyes and took a beautiful photo of her standing with the sunshine illuminating her. It was beautiful. Normally, I'm pretty tough. I honestly haven't shed many tears in the past… Continue reading Lessons Learned

The Magician

This year around December 31st I purchased a new calendar to hang for the next 12 months. I was so excited to take home my brand new Tarot themed calendar, full of different cards, decks, illustrations and interpretations. I loved the idea of each month being designated to a unique card, and also being able… Continue reading The Magician

The Peace Village

Several years ago a friend of mine was telling me about a retreat center in the Catskill Mountains of New York. She said it was called The Peace Village. Now this same friend tells me that she doesn't remember our conversation and has never been to Peace Village... ironic. I'm happy to say I've been… Continue reading The Peace Village

We Have Everything, We Have Nothing

I  made a new friend this week. Pretty cool right? Several weeks ago, an existing friend handed me a business card that belonged to one of her colleagues. You need to contact her she told me. I was kind of surprised, but I took down the woman's email address and composed a draft email to… Continue reading We Have Everything, We Have Nothing

New Cards

When my Tarot Cards first found me, it was a perfect situation. A few days before I was introduced to my deck a friend of mine had been talking to me about a deck he thought I would enjoy called The Dreaming Way Tarot. I hadn't really had much time to research the cards but… Continue reading New Cards

We've also driven to Florida from New York and back several times in the past 5 years. One thing that kept us sane, and awake during these treks, comedy. Yup. Did… Continue reading Comedic Relief

After 100 Days

In December, I wrote a blog about writing a letter to Santa Claus. Some people probably thought I was nuts, fair enough. However... I took that act pretty seriously, and more important was what I asked for for Christmas last year. There were 2 things. A new laptop... And a better relationship and understanding of… Continue reading After 100 Days

Rebirth

Happy Easter 🙂 I spent a lovely sunny Sunday with my family today enjoying all of the normal Easter traditions... eggs, chocolate, sweets and good company. As my husband and I drove down to my moms house today we began talking a bit about Easter and some of the pagan traditions and beliefs. I grew… Continue reading Rebirth

Our Stories

Several weeks ago I was plugged into my phone listening to some random music on YouTube. A song came on that I recognized, and I looked down to see that the artist was James Bay... the song, Hold Back the River. I clicked on his name and more songs came up, so I continued listening.… Continue reading Our Stories

I’m Back

This just seemed to be an appropriate title. I'm sorry - to all who may care - that I fell off the planet over the past few weeks. Honestly, my laptop was dead and every time the inspiration to sit down and write hit me... I'd sit down and the poor thing would spit and… Continue reading I’m Back
