'clink, clink' hello?
un...
two days in a row? wt...
heeheeheee.....
that's right, babes! i'm back again! haha.
first off, you should know... there has been nothing added to the water around here. but i'm a little... wait, what is that word?
hypnotic? no, that's not it
um, hippopotamus?
no... definitely not.
oh...yeah.. i got it now!
SUPERDUPEREXTREMELYOFFTHECHARTSSWIMMINGAROUNDTHEMOON-HYPER!!! Yep...that's the word.
y'all, i've been up since 4am, technically 3 since i just dozed for an hour before getting out of bed at 4 and have not stopped talking since. litterally. i am talking. constantly. to... myself.
there is no one here but me! haha! and on a silent sunday too! freaking hilarious.
i've also done 3 loads of laundry, watered the gardens, started on the houseplants and done a whole long list of other quests for the day. i figured it might be good to get a post in while i spent some time searching for what to do with a glut of cucumbers. goddess, i tell you i'm giving them away and still can't get through them.
so today, i'm focusing (here on this post - if i can hehe) on an update on my book of me or mybome.
Here is where I started at the first of January of this year:
and this is where we were in april:and now we are in the middle of august, although this picture is of the tarot spread page i put at the beginning of august:under my fingers on the right of the above picture is the front cover of the journal and above the current last notebook added (but not the last to be added!). and yes, i have to fold it. you'll see.
may i present... the leaning tower of mybome (my book of me)
when i added those last couple of journals at the bottom i put them in too tight. it is bulky and unweildy and not at all how i thought it would be as something i could keep with me all the time and i still love it so much!i made a collage instead of trying to get each picture in separately. each day i draw a card from a selected monthly deck or tarot or oracle (more near the end) and i make a copy on my printer on card stock, write notes from the creator's guide on the back then tack into my journal. my personal notes on the card go into the journal entry for the day. it helps me learn new decks and remember things too. i'm having so much fun with this.
i've been trying to figure out how to keep my imitation bullit journal quest days together, they always seem to end up spread out and then i'm searching and searching. ugh. i like how i figured this one out. monday through friday plans. (shopping for freezers a bonus!)i think that second row kind of sums me up a bit, on one side i'm all spirit and woods and sacred and on the other, i know where you live keep you're damn mouth shut. and in the middle alllllll the things that geminis like to experiment with! hee hee
and the last two in the collage. the front and i ran out of tape and had to switch it up and the book on it's side.
i actually made a video a while back to share, i think Debra might have asked. but i can't get it to show here. i've tried a couple times. i was going to go the ytube route, but ... recent things there have me hesitant to even watch videos of some of my favorite creators, much less post anything.
i need to find way to contain the beast (keep it wrapped whilst traveling), so that is on this week's quests. yes, i said traveling... :-)
so... the card shown above is from the below gorgeous, and fantastically accurate and downright magical Witching Hour Oracle by the amazing and gifted Lorriane Anderson of Spirit Element.
if you're not familiar with her work and are the tiniest bit witch adjacent, is that what it's called now, please go check her out. She is fabulous! And her newsletter and blog are great. She does a weekly newsletter tarot/oracle pull that i consult every day, after my own pulls and it is amazing to see how often they connect. I was actually shopping for a different deck she had reviewed when i stumbled across this one and just could not put it down. Sooooo glad it came home with me!i think that's it for me today. i need to go fold the last load of laundry. i'm at the part of the house doomstashing where i go through every inch of clothes i own and decide if it is something to keep, repurpose, or donate.
hope you have a marvelously fantastic rest of your day lovelies!
thanks for being here...
love & kisses & magical wishes...
