Still Here

I am still around my lovely peoples. Work has dropped dramatically and because of it we don’t currently have internet at the house. I have to wait until I get to my office in the evenings to be able to connect. Well, I can with my phone but doing blog posts from there is a massive PITA so I will wait until I can get to my office. Hopefully soon things pick back up (or I find more work which is highly unlikely given that I have put out over 100 resumes) and we can get our internet back. So what’s been going on? Got LOTS going on!

No more cable! With the recent cutoff I have once again begged the hubs to just get rid of the cable and telephone and he finally agreed. With 3 cellphones and internet we can make calls, get news, and watch cartoons. In the Spring I want to get a Roku and stream Netflix through it.

Homeschooling is tough! Yep, it’s a shit load of work. I am so not going to lie to you about that. The girls and I feel that our current curriculum (which is free) isn’t working out so well. So I am checking out new curriculum to buy come this spring.

It’s my birthday! By the time this gets posted and available to read, I will have done my birthday ritual. I have been getting questions about it so I may go ahead and post it soon so you can see what it’s like.

Type A Mom Conference is almost here! I have been trying to help with this and pre-conference blogger party for the locals (which I will miss). It’s pretty mind boggling all the things that have to be done.

Pagan Pride Day! On the 18th I will be in Raleigh for Pagan Pride Day. I have to miss the Charlotte one (which is closer) because of Type A Mom Conference so I am going further away and hanging with some of my Twitter peeps for the day.

Mabon! Just a few more weeks and it is here! I have a small twig wreath for the kids to glue items on that we have been finding on our walks. We are also going to be making some Corn Dollies in a week or so. One will adorn the altar and I think the others will hang around the house. Might save one for the Mother Grove Temple Rite and place it on the altar.

Honey Mead! I was looking through one of my books and came across a very simple recipe for honey mead. So I got a bee in my bonnet and want to make some. Hoping to pick up some honey and water this week and get it started. Recipe says it ferments for 7 days but I have been advised to let it sit for four months. That gives me time to acquire bottles, corks, and a cork pusher thingamiajiggy.

Runes! Yep, I made another set. The Futhark set I made I was having trouble connecting with. So I made my own set with some heiroglyphics.

I have the meanings typed up, just need to get it printed and into BoS.

So yea that’s what is up with me. Someone suggested I do a post on Bastet and I am working on that. It will have some history and a little bit about my relationship with her. Hopefully you all will find it interesting!
