    Magic for the Home!

    Tuesday, February 24, 2009, 02:12 AM GMT [General]

    Greetings all!


    Sorry I have not checked in for a while, I have been a bit busy juggling writing, crafting, sound engineering and housework! (And the dreaded VAT tomorrow, achk!)


    Which brings me to the subject of this blog. One would think that being based at home would mean I have a bit more time than others to get the housework done. Pah! No such luck. More often than not I find myself longing for a magical faerie wand to wash the dishes for me or mop the floor!


    As a kitchen witch, it is important to me to balance my work and home life. I am currently trying to establish a routine that will allow me to get everything done - not entirely managed it so far, but getting there! I will ask the faeries for some help in achieving my goals - fingers crossed!


    For those of you who have enjoyed my kitchen witch articles, good news! I have a brand new, ENTIRE Squidoo lens (that's fancy Squid-talk for web page, for the uninitiated!) devoted to kitchen witchery, which you can view HERE! It contains TONS of info, pictures, faerie art, goddess chants, statues, links and further kitchen witch reading. I hope you enjoy it, please take a minute to leave me a comment on the lens to let me know what you think!


     



    I have also written two other BRAND NEW lenses in the last two days, for those of you interested in green living and making housework more enjoyable!


    They are:


    How to Clean Your House Effortlessly, Chemical-Free


    and


    Make Housework Enjoyable!


    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take a moment to interact in the polls, discussion forums and feedback boxes. It only takes a minute and you should be able to do everything on the lenses except leave a star rating (that is for fellow Squidoo writers only). Thank you so much!


    Brightest Blessings to all! xxx

    I bought some "Ecloth" type cloths from the local Costco some years ago. Very, very fine weave. Problem is I don't find them comfortable because they stick to my (slightly rough) hands like Velcro!



    Your articles are long and involved, so I don't imagine a lot of folks here will get into them too much (I frequently don't - little time!). I hope you don't take it as being dissed by us. I would love to see you become a writer for one of the faery mags though!

    Thanks guys!



    I probably should do that, Marianne! I've been working on an angel one for a while so a faerie one is sure to follow! ;o)

    Dear Louise, I enjoyed your writing very much but I'm afraid that you cannot persuade me to enjoy my housework !

    I just hate it ! I do it, but only because I have to : )

    Although having said that Spring must be getting to me 'cos I have spent most of the week 'decluttering'.Around here we call it hoyin stuff oot or if you are posh -tidying,sorting and throwing things away ; )

    Actually, it's all been rather satisfying.

    I'm tired too ^_^

    Hi Louise,

    I like the new entire lens with the Contents at a Glance and Related Pages highlighted and easily accessible. Love your articles, and as a fellow Sagittarian, I need all the tips I can get with housework!! I like the chemical-free cloth. Faery Blessings! Ailynari
