    Faery of chaos strikes again!

    Wednesday, May 7, 2008, 12:18 PM [General]

    I know I am not losing my mind; it's been gone for years!

    Life seems to have grabbed ahold of me and is twisting me through the cone of a tornado. I wonder where I will land?

    Next weekend our regional belly dance group is producing our annual spring show with the amazing Isidora Bushkovski.  I am thrilled beyond belief, but there are so many miles before I sleep!  Not only do I have to finish my own dance pieces, but there is still marketing to do, as well as putting together the programs, finishing my costumes, organizing volunteers, selling tickets, herding dancers...

    I would like to sleep sometime this week, too.

    Maybe I'll at least have some fun photos and videos to post after it is all over!

    If you are at all interested in dance, you should check out Izzy www.izzydancer.com

    Peace and blessings to all!

    May Day/Beltane

    Friday, May 2, 2008, 12:03 AM [General]

    The first of May -- what a magickal time.  We already danced around the maypole over the weekend, so perhaps today was a little anticlimactic, especially when spending the whole day at work.  I was a little thrown off by the snow flurries, too.  Such is life in the mountains!  I needed the reminder of the frivolity of life that this holy day encapsulates.  If every moment was spent in an attitude of gay splendor (with a little kinkiness sprinkled in for good measure) I think it would be harder to be stressed and harried.  There must be a bit of joy in each task we undertake.  Oh geez!  I am sounding like Mary Poppins.  Blessings for Beltane!

    Hello Tara, we appreciate you joining our EF community (Mary Poppins moments make me smile:) Thank you for sharing your magical May day celebrations, how wonderful. Your bunnies sound adorable as well as smart, great names - we love Brian's Faeries' Oracle here too. PS If you do locate your house brownie, please could you ask him if he has a friend in England ;)
    Big smiles, Be
