I feel like I should be posting more, but I'm really at a loss as to exactly what I want to write.  Several topics have come across my mind, but only partially formed.  There are many things I'd like to address, in addition to the weekly PBP posts.

Usually, I am a bit of a perfectionist.  I like to know exactly what I'm doing, before I do it.  I like to have everything organized in a logical (at least to me) manner, before moving forward.  Instead, I'll use this post to introduce some of the things I am likely to write about in the future.

First, my kids.  They are, naturally, a huge part of who and what I am.  I will probably write alot about them.  Being a Capricorn, with two fire-sign children (Aries and Leo), tends to generate some interesting experiences.  Speaking of my kids, we'll call them Dragon Boy and Fairy Princess (they chose those names themselves :).   Dragon Boy is almost 7 and Fairy Princess is about 3 1/2.  Dragon Boy has alot of Challenges - with a capital "C" - which I'm sure I'll get into later.  Fairy Princess, on the other hand, is a perfectly normal 3yr old, who's main challenge is a tendency to copy her big brother.  In about 5 months or so, we'll have a new addition, which we're looking forward to (the baby will probably either be air - Gemini - or water - Cancer).

Moving on, I will probably talk about homeschooling a bit.  Due to many of my son's issues, a traditional school just doesn't work for us. 

I'm sure I'll mention my fiance occassionally, too.  He is not Pagan, but is ok with my choice.  He was raised in a loosely Christian family, who have all been very accepting of my religious choice, once they understood basically what it is.  When I tell him I'm going to one of my Sister's houses for an Esbat, he's like "what"? But if I say we're doing "witchy stuff", then he knows what I mean, and doesn't ask any more questions.  But, he is a wonderful man, and I am lucky to have found him.

And, of course, I'll be talking about "witchy stuff".  Sometimes it might not seem magical, but I am a firm believer that magic exists in everything we are and do.  I cannot separate being a witch from being a mom, from being a wife, from being a friend, and that means that Pagan-related topics might end up sounding a bit, well, mundane at times.

So, please bear with me as I work all these various ideas into cohesive thoughts that can be shared and understood by those choosing to read.

Brightest Blessings,

  1. I am usually the same way. But the PBP has opened me up a lot. My so. Is almost 6 and he's got a few challenges of his own. I'm right there with you on that one. My blog has a mix of my daily stuff and my as you put it "witchy stuff". Sometimes when I go back and read my blogs they make no sense at all but at the point of writin them, it made complete sense to me. Bright Blessings
