Hello Fears, Commune Walks and Writing

I found a book at the little freebie library called "The Hello Fears Challenge" by Michelle Poler. It's a 100-Day Journal for self-discovery. I thought this was pretty cool, and someone had already written on the first couple of pages. It feels a little voyeuristic to see their answers.... their fears. They wrote something extremely intimate on the pages that breaks my heart. I wonder who they are. I wish I could comfort them. What do you say to someone whose inner demons are so loud that they can't hear anything beyond it? How do you comfort them? Would they even hear what you had to say, or would it be like a sandcastle too close to the shore? The waves sweep in, and suddenly, all that work is just gone?  I just want this specific person to know that I read your words. I heard you. I hope you are well. I pray the book was placed in the box because you realized that you are worthy of good things, and I hope you choose yourself every time. I hope you walked away from ...

Altars, Haunted Homes and Writing

Jeff Goldblum is an interesting actor. He's very quirky. He seems like the type of person you could say something extremely outlandish to, and he'd accept that it's your personality. I would love to pick his brain on so many things. May we all have a Jeff Goldblum in our lives. 👈 That is my prayer to Hecate!  I need to change my altar now that it's moving into spring. I wanted to do a cord-cutting to cut ties with a certain negativity that's been plaguing the soul of someone I love. However, I probably shouldn't meddle. But no good story comes from someone with logic. So I might do the cord-cutting for this person, or I may just wish wisdom on the person under spiritual attack.  I was reading an article that spoke about how we shouldn't close the door on bringing new people into our lives. That seems like a well-timed article because I am in the middle of cutting ties and closing my availability to others. I'm happy with my small circle. I have all the ...

Reading Lists, Bartender on Vacation and Writing

My to-be-read list is growing so much. I have been listening to books on Libby and must admit, I get so caught up in the story that I'll forget what I'm doing. Ann and Sue are reading a lot of the same books and think I would enjoy them. I like more fantasy than suspense. They like the stories that don't have vampires and fairies.... I think that's nuts. The world is too real as it is. I want to be captivated by stories that are a little unrealistic.  I'm listening to Taylor Spratt's "Poison Penitentiary Series" book 2 right now. It's so good. When I listened to book one, I was thinking, "Is this a reverse harem?" Yes. Yes, it is. I really love the world-building. It's like Prison Break but with fantasy creatures. I am really enjoying the story, and I think Taylor Spratt did a really good job.  I believe Emory might like these books. He's the one who got me addicted to Laurell K Hamilton. He's reading a book right now that he ...

K9, Search Lights and Writing

I had the craziest night! I was chilling at 11:20pm and thought I heard screaming. We're on a busy street, so there is always noise.... but it was late, and every once in a while someone needs something. I stood up to look out the window and noticed that I had left something on my patio that I'd rather bring in.   I opened the sliding glass door, walked out, and noticed the usually loud street was eerily quiet. I'm on the second floor, and the street we face is NEVER quiet, not even when you really wish it would be. Before logic pieced itself together in my wee brain, a very bright light zeroed in on me.  A police helicopter had me in its spotlight.  That's when I realized it was so quiet because traffic was blocked off. Cops were combing the area with K9s. A firetruck and an ambulance came onto the scene. Emory came stumbling out of the bedroom, half asleep, and asked, "What are you doing?"  I was still dumbfounded. I had no idea what I was doing, but when th...
