About Me

I'm older than dirt and I'm wondering why I'm here but here I be.I'm Pagan, celtic by ancestry, hermetic by philosophy, and a plain ol' hedgewitch in practice. I've trained in herbology with a wise woman in Maine where I lived for ten years perched on the side of a mountain and happily communing with nature.I knit, sew, quilt, and spin and make handspindles for spinning wool into yarn. I make jewelry for fun and profit, usually more fun than profit.I love Ireland and have visited there twice. I'm a genealogy freak and have traced my family back to 1600 on one side. I'm trying hard to learn Gaeilge to little avail but for those who might need it, Fer is the men's room and Mna is the ladies' room. And if you are ever in Tra Li and there is a fountain on the wall that runs when you flush the toilet, you've picked the wrong one.I've had more jobs that I can remember including nurse's aide, banking assistant, stock market clerk, meatwrapper, and tin knocker. What do I know? I know that I know very little and I'm still learning. I hope I always will be.

marriage

August 2nd. I'm doing it again. You'd think I'd learn by now. I'm getting married for the third time but I think I've learned the difference between flash and solid. I hope I have.  Wish me luck.

Great Writing by People You’ve Never Heard Of

Alright, we've done it.  We've applied for our ISBN and the book is going onto Amazon, etc.  We're legit.  Now they want me to collaborate on a book of poetry for children.  Yikes!...

writing my life

After four generations, I've reached the point where my story is about me. To write my own story is horrendously hard. I didn't even want to live it.  But write it, I will. I also finally had ti...
