Lady Rose
::warning, whine ahead::
Today will be a good day. No matter what else happens today brings with it the gift and blessing of a visit from Lady Rose. If the Gods are kind my father will spend part of the day elsewhere and I will be able to put some Witchy music on the stereo. If the Gods are less kind I will have to be satisfied with generic Celtic music which, while wonderful, is not going to be quite as satisfying. The plan is to work out some ideas for the eventual move of 2Witches to its own domain. Talk about layout, design, widgets, and future content. One thing we hope to launch once the new domain is up and running is some youtube content of our own. We also plan to start including more and more snapshots of daily life with photos and have created a new photobucket (with handy dandy little subfolders) so that we can start compiling a nice collection of content.
We also plan to do some Reiki practice and I know without doubt that love and laughter will abound.
In other news while Lady Rose has found new energy and deep restoring rest (and the explosion of creativitity and inspiration they trigger) since our return from Womongathering, I on the other hand have fallen into quite a deep little funk. It began with a chronic pain flare, triggered by too much vegetarian fare (high fiber is no fun when by all rights I should be on some variation of a low residue diet) and a return to exhaustion when I no longer had endorphins pumping high enough to offset my insomnia and fatigue issues.
I do not know how to explain it other than reality seems to hurt more now. I am bright enough to know that this is probably a good thing (in the long term eventually kind of way) as it indicates that I am less numb than I was when I left on my trip. The problem is that I do not know if I am ready to face all the negative feelings I have been hiding from and therefore began shutting down again almost as soon as I came back home.
The other hard part is having to go back into the broomcloset, and after 4 days of feeling free and witchy I have to say that it feels more cramped than when I last left it. I am working on that though. I found on WItchvox that a new circle was forming in my very own neck of the woods and I have emailed the founder.
So heres to using today as a fresh start. To begin anew in using the beauty of Womongathering to inspire me to be a better Witch, to be a better Priestess, to be a better me.
Blessings

Just reminding you - that you are perfect just being who you are, you don’t need to “be a better” anything. ***hugs***
Low residue is so hard to do, isn’t it? Especially when one is trying to be more healthy and aware of what goes into our bodies.
Be well, my friend!
Mama Kelly - being in the broom closet is so hard to do.
I know because although I am openly witchy, I have to be in the closet when I’m with certain people. I sincerely hope that you can once again reclaim that inner witch! I too need to do so…here’s much love, light, and laughter for everyone!
Mama Kelly - Even though I only got to spend a short time with you and Lady Rose, I could tell that you are both wonderful ladies. I’m sending lots of love, positive energy, and Reiki your way. Take care of you!
Thanks for the comment on my blog. I’m doing much better today. :).
