Life has been hectic for us here lately, so many things stirring in the cauldron-- the good, the bad, financial, medical, personal, business, both positive and negative. We're still in the Middle-Of-Life, though I hadn't expected this at the tale-end of middle-age. Needless to say, "Stress" has been our companion, my companion, for the past several … Continue reading Oh, Blessed Dirt
I've about knocked myself out this year revamping our gardens and grounds. It has been a lot of work, and I'm not finished yet, but it's also been a lot of fun, and it's turned out to be a wonderful creative outlet. (Spirit Chimes in the "Old Garden") "The Old Garden" is my … Continue reading Garden Magick @ Hedgewytch Hollow (photo blog)
I've been working like a crazy woman this spring redoing garden spots, adding new garden spots, planting, mulching, planning, shopping, and creating. It's been a hoot, and I've loved the bonus of this early growing season. I've added several photos to a new garden slideshow, and I'll be updating this slideshow from time to time … Continue reading Spring 2012 @ Our House

I wish I would've kept track of how many large bags of mulch and soil I've gone through; I can tell you that it is a lot! I told my husband that I must have … Continue reading Spring @ Our House (slideshow)

That's not the case where I live, except for a huge mound of sage I planted years ago which comes up faithfully every year, and several plants that are native to my area (Nebraska). So every … Continue reading Garden Magick: My Herbal Shopping List
I don't know how Laura Ingalls Wilder survived the pioneer age through summer heat and humidity with no air-conditioning and not even one lousy electric fan. I would've died. I took my camera outside to capture some of our flowers and stuff this week and was amazed when the lens fogged over. I guess you … Continue reading Prairie Summer Magick
I have a new dream to add to my journal, it's incomplete, one scene out of an entire adventure, most of which can't be remembered, but it's visually memorable: An Indian (Native American) village is burning. I don't see the flames, but the smoke is thick and curling, sulfurous, twisting through the air like dirty gray … Continue reading Dreams, Magickal Formularia, & Fairie Realms
I feel like I'm waking from a fog. This past week I've been sick with the flu, in bed most of the time, filled up on Ibuprofen and cold medicine, sleeping off and on, and waiting for the moment I would feel normal again. Well, that moment has finally come-- ta,da!-- and none too soon; … Continue reading Wytchy Chit-Chat: It’s Been a Long Week
