Last Night
I had something cool happen last night
I’ve been working on writing about my treks at night. It’s a ¾ km walk downhill the mountain to moms. 1/2 km as the crow flies, but its down, around, down, around, up around. I have a lot to share about the long walks in the dark, in the woods, on the mountain. But I have been storing it up, working it out.
However, last night something happened, and before I have the time to fully over analyze it, I wanted to share it was rather fresh and raw.
Here it is.
Mom’s collie Athena started having her pups. So I grabbed my bag and my sled and started heading down the hill

I’m afraid I am not active in the pagan community really at all, not for a while. I have some web presence if that counts.
I am a messy little hedgewitch who is completely disreputable and un-respectable. I wear socks that don’t match, care nothing for initiations, am not impressed by titles or lineage and have been known to blurt out things that would make Crowley blush.
