Lighting the Path Less Taken

Poor lass
All that talking to the porcelain
Listening to the returning echo
You will get over it, and under it
Have a nice rest, close to the rest room

I awoke unsettled and dressed after a shower to cleanse away the flutters. I walked the laundry down and came out to see Rose, my barn kitty, waiting for her feed. I removed my shoes and walked to the barn, fed her and upon exiting the barn looked down to see a Sarcopia Moth laying on it's side.
Being me, I reached down to gather her body but she moved so I led her to my hand. She opened her wings and held on trembling with the cold concrete.
I opened my hands and breathed a warm puff of breath on her and I could see her open. So I walked into the sun and kept up the soft breaths as she opened and closed her wings.
I felt so at peace and connected with her. Mother Earth was cool and damp on my feet as I walked her to the sunny spot with some leaves for shelter should she wish it. She walked off my hand and turned to me. I did a good thing, I felt alive and wonderful. What can you do for Mother Earth today?

Beautiful

Always mind what you wish for. We must remember the seredipidous minds of those who grant them. I smile.

Last wishing moon I sat before the fire and thot about what I'd like. A companion I thot, someone who understood me or at least accepted me for who and what I am. Someone not too demanding but loving and loyal, who wouldn't be a 24/7 demand but one who needed me so I could need back. I thot a nice man to spend time with, like this, round a fine fire..listening to the night..I should like that......someone to love and who would love me.

now I have Andrew..oh mind he has my heart, and he fills the requests pretty well but I smile..I was kinda hoping for human? Gotta be specific!

This next BIG full moon, a wishing moon, and eclipse..so much building...can you feel it too? What shall I wish for? I think I shall wish for more strength, more understanding, and a bit more space for the shop maybe...

I'll leave the huMAN to find me when the time is. q18

Each year as we mark the date in our passage of time and look back on our lives, our growth hopefully...and see some of what we had hoped to manifest actually has come to pass.

I remember last year wishing for a Reiki Room...I have one...I smile. I remember wanting others to share my life with that take me for who I am and what I become....and so I do.

This year, today, a lesson in hope and faith and trust in the powers that be, runs my life and that of the wee one. I can't be sad, I must keep hopeful...remembering that he taught me many things in this short time...I am a nurturer and needed to rediscover that. I am a listener and I listen close even when I do not like the sounds of it. I guess it is a good day for I have grown and matured and flowered...like the willow.

The heat turned on in the night, I rolled over and snuggled down in covers long unused and slept deeply. Andrew awakened at 6:30 but I slept on and he settled to sleep again as well. But at almost 8 I donned my chemise and walked down the stair to another morning.
Kasha jumps up and shakes, her signal to go OUT! I stepped to the door and opened it to a crisp fall (yes Fall) morning. The grass is covered with diamonds of morning dew showing me that all too soon it will be frost, then snow.
At only 42 out, my toes tingled on the porch but I had to step out and embrace the cool clean air and spread my arms wide in honor. All things spiral round, that circle of life and seasons. I do love fall, but would've enjoyed a bit more summer. However it was not to be this year with so much rain and cool temps...winter should be an adventure.
This morning I set and wonder, shall I go to the shop, deliver a bracelet? Shall I empty the shop and begin fresh this September? August was ruined with cracked ribs and I wish to come back better than ever...new colors, pics, and energy I think....
So many things to ponder this month..the voices try to talk over one another guiding me, slowing me down, poking me to get me going..I smile.
That full moon waits for us, I am hoping that all things will settle down after this harvest moon. Time coming to reflect and adjust, time to slow down and settle up with life.
Care to join me?

Dearest friend, knowing this makes life fulfilling and magical.

Sometimes one needs a day to refuel.

Today was one of those days, lucky for me it is or was a perfect autumn day. It began a bit too early with Sir Andrew waking at 5:55 demanding to know why I didn't get up in the night to feed him, but he is 8 wks old now. He has hard food and water at all times in his play pen...but up I got to give him his bottle and his kibble in a special bowl he loves.

I spent a bit of time online doing what I do here and there, then thot well, I'll just hang out here BUT the voices said nope dress and head to the flea market..so I did just that. The 52 I woke to got sunny and rose to a lovely 70 and people were smiling and looking for treasure.

The air was perfumed with woodsmoke and peaches, so I parked and set forth for my own treasure hunt. So nice to walk amongst the living, haha, look into eyes, smile, they say good morning and so do you. One lovely older lady said such then turned back to me and said "you have gorgeous hair, watch out for my husband he'll fall in love with you" and we laughed. That was nice.

I walked about touching this and that, not really finding anything that spoke. I always look at jewelry tho so I stopped to check a few rather nice pieces out. I had on my green skirt, butterfly top and my prehnite necklace. He said hello and asked where I bought my necklace. well I made it and he offered to buy it but I love my prehnites they aren't for sale at any price. I looked at his things and we chatted, he asked my opinions about some, what stones were, prices and such.

He asked for my card and is interested in perhaps buying 6 at a time as he shows all over the East. That was a delight. As I went thru the rings helping name the stones I picked up a lovely sterling rectangle lapis in sterling....it had my name in it...but I set it down and went on...he said you like that blue one? you could have it for $30, I smiled and said no, and looked a bit more, bought 2 pieces of very nice turquoise, then he said $25 and the ring was mine. HEHE!
Fits my left ring finger and feels like it was born to be right there, I love it. I also found some lovely peaches so tonight a blueberry peach pie! Then home with the dogs a while....playtime was wonderful, the sun shone and the breeze blew. I so love fall. I brought the kids in and fed both then decided to mow the yard. Ok don't yell! Just the yard not the acreage! It was long so I set the blades low and it looks better now, then sat as the queen of her domain soaking it in, ahhhhhhhhh.

Came in, had a bite and a drink and read a book, now tis almost supper and I am so tired I could go nap..old thing I am! So I think I'll..uh oh Andrew woke up, no nap then. Ah well maybe later..a good me day. Hope yours was as well.

I woke with butterflies in my tummy. I have to take Shain back to his dad's for his 2nd (and last) road test to get his license. If you could all just pray he makes it this time.

I wonder if it was my fault the last failed. I lay abed wondering about him with a car, all grown up, such responsibility BUT I did it, others do it. I've never been a hold em close mom tho I love em dear. And he failed something he does with such ease. I'll keep my bright light on for him now.

I want him living up there working hard, becoming a man but times are hard, jobs scarce. Married men, older men are being hired first. Syracuse just laid off over 2000 asst workers at asst businesses, here 700 just lost their jobs, It is a sad economy.

I have been so wrapped up in my life and others in need I hope I haven't neglected anything...he is a good driver. he will pass. Course then I'll worry about that first accident...I had one at 19. Doozy of a one too in my first winter driving.

My mind wanders, my tummy clenches and soon we depart. he will drive his car home and I will pick up my truck and go home.
Wish us well eh? q18

Ah blessed to be home again. Son is safely up and will go for his test at 8:45am EST tomorrow, so cross your fingers. I am off to bed to watch Silverado and hopefully drift off to sleep. Good night my dear ones.

He passed he passed.... q22

OMG my son behind the wheel of a lethal weapon....a car....OH he's a great driver, it's the other crazys on the road! Off to work!

all your work has not been in vain
nascar next

Congratulations to son :)
