3/1/2012

Ahh, the first of March and it is roaring like a lion out there. In here we are all snug and warm, a quiet day of house work and contemplation. Signed off on the cover and the galleys for the book yesterday, should be in production in 3 days and in print by the end of the Month. WOW! the excitement here is building. I am a little nervous and SO excited all at the same time! Life has definitely shifted in a new direction for me. And this is not a bad thing, but it is a little out of my comfort zone. The funny thing is I feel ready for it. Like It is time to spread my wings and soar.

I was thinking about all the changes coming my way... where am I going next. I know that there is more to be written although I haven't found what yet. I Idea of some type of classes has crossed my mind a couple of times. Finding a way to share knowledge. Not just my own but others as well. I don't know just rambling a bit, I guess.

2/26/12

What a beautiful day outside. the world is white with snow and so beautiful and bright. Winter is laying out a beautiful ending for us. I am in the process of readding the galleys for the book. " A Witch's Journey... the story of Greyehawke". so far not to many errors on my part but a few that will need correcting. The house is so quiet and relaxed this morning. I have been so overwhelmed lately by my home there are so many different people living here and the energies are so scattered. Thank you Sabrina for helping me fix that. Off on a new tangent at the moment. researching Elementals in more depth. I have lightly grazed the surface in my studies but it is time to dig deeper. So I think, perhaps, one element at a time. I will probably begin with Earth as that is my element and progress from there. Think I will look into some of the Angel thing Dorren virtue has out there as well. Gotta say it is some pretty powerful stuff. Well off to begin my day... May yours be blessed and bright!

2/24/12

Well, just got back from Vacation with the hubby. We did a three day mini tour through PA. Awesome place to visit. I think I could even live there. Proofs are back from the publisher, I'll start reviewing them tomorrow afternoon. There is a lot of work that goes into publishing a book. Perhaps even more than writing it. I am so excited to do this and grateful for the ability to do so. I am so proud of my family for their support. I looked at the cover today and must admit I cried a little. To see it for the first time is so huge. I feel like I have stepped into a whirlwind of good fortune. The sun is shining in my life and the grass is green the breezes are gentle and the earth is warm. Hard to believe it is still february and winter outside, in my heart it is summer. And there I go waxing poetic. LOL

Well... been a little while since I've had time to write. But here I am! The book is progressing quite nicely though the publishing process. I do have homework however. I am supposed to be deciding what my goals are. What do I see as what the book should be where it should go. My immediate response is of Course, "I want to be a best selling author"! On a smaller scale I would like to think that perhaps someone will read this story of my journey and it will make them realize that their journey is ok too. They don't have to be on my journey and they don't have to follow where I am going. Their journey is seperate and individual, but it is a journey, enjoy it. Laugh, and cry; grieve when you need to, laugh when the mood strikes. Just live it! The good and the bad the mundane and the Magick!

1/30/2012

Well, what is doing in your world today? Not alot going on here at the moment. Everyone is at work, and the Belisana (the dog) and I are home. The sun is shining and life is feeling pretty good. Looking to see if I can get a doggie playdate scheduled with by friend Sabrina and her husky Kyda. Bel always enjoys these and so do I. let's face it a day of interesting conversation is always more fun than talking to yourself or the dog. Although, somedays the dog makes a very good listener. So, my goal today is a playdate, let's be honest for both the dog and I; and some study time ( Chakra healing and other), some housework and if I'm luck my hubby won't have to stay at work all day. Seriously it is his day off, and I can't get some quality time with him. And.... biggest goal of the day is to work on self respect. I find that I am lacking it right now. Like that's all that new, struggle with that all the time. But I have come to the realization that most of my inner turmoil right now is the fact that I have no respect of self. I can spend all day having a pitty party because I am frustrated with life or I can suck it up and do things to get  my self back where I want to be. Option 2, option 2, getting very tired of the pity party. Spring is coming and I am a wreck, time for some self improvement.

My tarot card for the day is the Sun of Life. It is a powerful symbol of light and fertility. It heralds a season blessed with joyous enlightment, robust health, and emotional harmony. ( sounds Awesome)
It is time to let the inner sun at my core shine through. It also beckons me to look beyond the clutter and noise of everyday and become aware of the vastness and generosity of the cosmic soul.
As I sit here reading this the sun is pouring through the window and onto the kitchen table warming my body and soul. Coincidence? I think not!

So today, I committed to publishing my book.

January 29,2012

So, seems I don't really post much. let's see if I can change that. Parks will be opening up here in Vermont pretty soon and then I will have all sorts of things to post but in the meantime...

Went to see Lorraine the other day, she is an alternative healing therapist and does such a great job. Lorraine is based out of Gorham, NH and is one of the most caring and grounded individuals I have ever met. Check her out at http://www.lorraineshealthyoptions.com/. the things she is able to do are amazing. I am far healthier in mind and body now than I was 4 years ago and Lorraine was and is a big part of this.

My friend Sabrina is stepping into her own as well with the opening of her new shoppe.
Believe in Magick Shoppe
Believe in Magick is a small store that specializes in inspiring books, tools of divination (including tarot, runes, pendulums etc.) and magick supplies. Soon to open in spring 2012
 
I am so excited for her and just for the fact that I won't have to drive 100 miles to find things I am looking for.
 
Got a new set of Tarot cards last week and I am enjoying them and learning them. Yesterday my card of the day was the Adventurer - beginnings and journey, I am alway on a journey. Good thing I like travel, LOL.
 
seems I have been presented with the ability to live a dream and publish a book. WOW, scary. This may be the journey that I am supposed to be taking right now. It is certainly a test of faith in myself and my beliefs. I will keep you posted on this more later. I have until Tuesday to make a decision. I am strongly leaning toward yes.

Wow! Lot going on here lately. Just did my Reiki I attunement last week. That was awesome! Am beginning a course on Chakra Healing. Still in classes with Dog. Parks will be starting up again in a few months and my application is in. Woo Hoo! Love my summer work. Oh and filed my taxes and I am in the black. Life is good! Sometimes I forget how good. I get so caught up in the daily strife that I forget to be grateful for all the things I have in my life. Family and friends of course but also the freedom to pursue the things in life that interest me. Whether it be spiritual, physical or intellectual. It's been a quiet winter so far, not a lot of snow, quite a bit of rain, everything is very soggy and icy. I am thinking about having my book published. need to give this a lot of thought, for money and many other reasons as well. Am I really ready to expose myself and my thoughts to the public? then again why not? It's not as if there are any great secrets.
