Something New




Okay, this is my second post in a day. But I think this is important. I am going to try to post a picture of something I made. It is a hat, but it is more than that. While I was crocheting this hat, I was also weaving magic. With each stitch, I added my desire that the person wearing this hat be kept warm, safe from the bitter cold we have been experiencing, and to know that my love and care was with them. This is the same kind of thing that I do when I cook or create anything. Magic is much easier for me to do if I have something physical to help me focus my intent. This hat has already been tested and approved. While Jody was wearing it, he was warmer than he expected to be, with -31 air temp and the gods only know what the wind chill was in Chicago last night. Right now I am working on a sweater for my youngest grandchild. She had asked specifically for a white sweater for Christmas, and I didn't get it done in time. But, for her, any day she gets something from Grandma is just as good as Christmas. I'll post it when I am done.




First Post

Okay, here I try again. I'm not going to promise that I will post everyday, cause that most likely will not happen. Real like has a habit of getting in the way of even the most well laid plans. This is evident in the pattern of my life. Don't get me wrong, I'm not totally complaining... sometimes it has been for the better. I know that most people won't agree with what I might write, but hey, that is what free will is for, having the ability to think for yourself and form your own opinions. Hopefully, though, this might at least prove to be theraputic for me.

We can always hope.
