I feel so restless today I can’t sit down and get anything done. Yesterday’s hope and disappointment has left me so listless. I think I just got a taste for hope again and then lost it so quickly I don’t really know how to recover.
I’m dramatic and there will be a perfect house that finds us.

Finding some little joys. Today’s been a rollercoaster of emotions. We put in an offer on a house, kind of out of nowhere, and got our hopes up and someone swooped in and offered $80,000 over asking in the first hour of accepting bids. So now I’m sad. But I am collecting orange blossoms to dry

I love my presentation creating days. I treat myself to a coffee from my local coffee shop. I come home and let my husband and puppy know I am going into the office and closing the door and that they need to come say hi once an hour! I turn on my oil lamp and incense and get to work!

I sent out two letters today, one to some friends who lost their mother and another to a neighbor who I get a new meditation altar table from out of their free pile! Though we will only be in Phoenix another year I am going to build friendships in my neighborhood because community it’s key right now

Before and after! Make Do and Mend! We all need to be buying less and repairing more! I’ve repaired these jeans once before and that repair is still going strong, today it needed some more fixing and now they are ready to be worn again!

Yes! Mutual aid can be magical as well! When you maybe don’t have funds to donate but you have time, do some magic for the person asking for help!
Whenever you make a donation to someone in need—and with as many mutual aid requests that float around here or elsewhere nowadays, it's not hard to find opportunities to do so—consider to also light a candle with prayer for the recipient, too. Combine work with Work, aid with Aid.

I found this post very interesting — how “they” discovered power to control imagination in 1517 and how social media has perfected this, preventing deep spiritual imagination from flourishing. Reclaiming your spiritual imagination is a form of resistance

I am sewing maybe my favorite make since my wedding dress. It’s a super simple piece but I am moving much slower on my projects to make sure they are fit well and very well made to last me for years to come. This is an ultra art deco vest from the early 1930s and will be a special nod to a fav witch
