For the first Monday of 2015, I wrote about changing up the look of my blog, and remembering how my late father taught me to code. Now, for this last Monday of the year, as I get ready to head to my four week post-surgical checkup, I'm finding it kind of awesome that I'm in... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart Christmas
I grew up Catholic, so Christmas has a special place in my heart. After hubby and I converted to Wicca back in '91, we still continued to celebrate a secular version of the holiday. In fact, it grew more special to me after researching and discovering the history and symbolism of so many of the... Continue Reading →
WW – Full Cold Moon in Cancer
The time of the Full Cold Moon in Cancer is almost upon us! Last month when I wrote about the Full Mourning Moon in Gemini, I quoted an article by Sara Coughlin over at the relatively non-pagan site, Refinery29. I figured I'd take a peek and see if she'd written anything for this full moon,... Continue Reading →
MM – Today is the Winter Solstice
A few minutes ago, I hit "publish" on my Witchy Wednesday post for last week. I still haven't started a Fandom Friday for the 18th, but I figured I'd jump ahead to today's post so at least one of my last three posts will be on time. *grin* The title of the post is, "Yule... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart Bill Belichick Singing Merry Little Christmas
I have a new favorite Xmas song! It's, Bill Belichick singing Merry Little Christmas. I mean, even the thumbnail for the video is amazing! First off, confession time - this post wasn't written on December 18th. If it had been, I wouldn't have know about the song, since it was created by the good folks... Continue Reading →
WW – Yule aka Winter Solstice
I had such high hopes for Yule this year. Even though I'm still recovering from surgery, I thought I'd be far enough along at this point to plan a family meal, set up a simple ritual, and sit back to enjoy celebrating the return of the sun. However, my body had other plans - no... Continue Reading →
MM – What do you see
Hubby recently had a schedule change at work, which means we now wake up before the sun (I get up with him and make his breakfast and such). Even though I'm still off the clock and recuperating, I can't help but go out to the kitchen and keep the eldest company while she does my... Continue Reading →

I mean, how could you not love a game like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQ9cqaVjufo&feature=youtu.be Back all those years ago, before the wonders of the World Wide Web were upon us, one of the coolest things...

WW – Dark Sagittarius Moon
On Friday, December 11th, the Dark Sagittarius Moon occurs. Since my astrology skills are still rusty, I turned to a couple of websites for information to create my graphic. I figured I'd share the most helpful bits below - A simple overview, from YOGANONYMOUS New moons generally turn our attention to new beginning since they... Continue Reading →
MM – It’s been one week
It's been one week since my hysterectomy, and I'm amazed by how incredible I feel. Yes, I'm still tired and sore, but at 6am the morning after the surgery, I was standing by my hospital room window when the surgeon arrived to check in. She said, "Hey, look at you!" and I replied, "I know... Continue Reading →
FF – I heart cookies
I know I've mentioned my love of cookies in a previous post, but since today is National Cookie Day, I thought it would be a sweet idea to mention it again. And by mention, I mean share a recipe for one of my all time favorite cookies to make during the holiday season. I found... Continue Reading →
