About Me

Thumbnail version of me : Divorced and currently single homeschooling mom to two quirky, wonderous souls. Moving on after the most twisted, manipulative relationship I've had in my life. (but I'm not too bitter LOL)

I write, I draw, I read, I believe life should have a soundtrack, dancing with wild abandon is to be encouraged and there is far too little laughter in the world.

What kind of 'witch' are you?
You are a fiery witch. Your charisma and sensual beauty draw many to you. You are creative and full of vitality and inspiration. Never one to blend in, you're appearance is bold, bright and..er.. fiery :) You draw your power from fire and may be a bit of a pyro.. for pretty sented candles at least.

Which Magical Symbol Is Connected To You?

You are connected with the magical symbol of a candle's flame. The flame of a candle appears so small and vulnerable, and yet, can burn just as badly as a huge bonfire. People shouldn't let its appearance deceive them; there is always more to things than meets the eye. A candle's flame is so small, and so thin, and so the slightest disruption could ruin it, and who knows when its next ignition will be? This shows that a flame represents vulnerable emotions that can last forever, but be damaged in a second. A flame is passionate even in its fragile size, and will fight to live on for eternity. Like love, and desire -- and magic.

evolution of angels over a lifetime
