I'm ready for Dec 2.

A quick note to give you the heads up!

TUESDAY, Dec 2, I will be taking Tarot Reading phone calls for a few hours. (from 12pm to about 2pm EST) sooooo.... if you want to get in on the deal-e-o...

Click through my little purple Keen banner, down to the right...
Scroll to the bottom of that page, and click Site Map.
From there, you can REGISTER for a keen account. (this is where I do all of my phone readings. I can send you free minutes, plus if you are new, you'll get a few free minutes from Keen. Between the minutes I can send you and the minutes from keen, I can get a whole reading out for you for free.)

I'm sure I've said it before, but I've been using keen for a long long time to do my readings. I like it because it keeps your info and my info private.

If you want more info, check me out at www.thelittlewitch.com

Good Vibes for December 2nd!

When ELSE would I get to say VAGINA and DIAPHRAGM in my blog title???

So, whaaaa's happanin?

I've shifted my artistic efforts from "making for sale" to "making for keeps"... getting the families Yule surprises together, and hoping for the best.

I feel terribly unorganized this year, and the ONE thing I really wanted to get to, I just can't seem to wrap my brain around how to complete it... and that's all I can say, because it's for someone who is SURE to read this blog... crappity crap.

I have felt completely stunted in my artistic growth and joy the past few weeks. I'm glad there are a number of things for sale in the store to see me through this...

In an effort to release myself from this madness, to open doors, to feel creative and alive again, I am auditioning for a local presentation of The Vagina Monologues. It would be a very cool thing to get into... because I think it's only a few speaking parts needed to get into ACTRA... and wouldn't that be fun? Anywho, it was a sign to me when a good friend AND my mother said that I was the first person they thought of when they saw the Call to Audition. Hehe. We'll see how it goes, and there WILL be a blog, you better believe it. (giggle-snort.)

Must practice speaking from the diaphragm (no pun intended.... well, maybe a little.)

There Be Clouds But, No Rain.

Today I got a rather gorgeous chunk of writing done. It was a good day. A Yummy day. A pretty day.

I mailed some etsy sales off, which made me happy. Somebody, somewhere, is getting my creations for Christmas.

After the vigourous walk home, that translates into my work out for the day (the walk down is about 15 minues in this weather. The walk home about 20, due to the hill) so, hopped in the bath with a book to think think think with the lights off.

Think about where my story is going (and where it definately should NOT go... it's too easy for me to write in gory detail. I have to keep my audience in mind before I let the love scenes run wild. hehe.)

Think about why I can't think about the future. Every time I try, I see BLANK. Each day is more than enough. I'm running with it, and immersing myself into my fantasy world. It helps me write, if nothing else...

Think about why the Powers that Be INSIST on PERSISTING with the Crappy Apple Pie, even though I had a very serious conversation with them that I was QUITE FINISHED with the Crappy Apple Pie, thank you, and would now like a nice big helping of Easy and Simple Stew.

*************************

The Purr of the Mattress needs cover art. I had a very specific idea in my head for it, black and white and partial nudity. Alas, a girl on a budget gets what she gets.

Today is today.

I look for adventure in my sleep.

A Crafty Idea?

I had a brain wave a few days ago, but unfortunately too late. I was thinking, wouldn't it be nice to have a house craft party? Everyone has a little corner to set up all their crafty goodies, everyone gets a chance to do a little chat about their favorite items, serve some food and do a little shopping/bartering for last minute goodies.

There may be time to do this yet. I would have to get a group of names of some ladies who would be interested (hint) and find a nice place that was big enough to host it in (hint)

How can I make this happen? I've got so much stuff that ISN'T listed on etsy, that I"d really like to get out there.

Anyway, that's my thoughts today. Have you done anything like this before?

Torture Me (with all I wanted.)

New computer, new printer, new SPEAKERS. Now, to figure out the business of how it all works. (I am feeling like a spoiled princess, even though I bought it myself. I'm so proud.)

I put the desk together myself, messed with all the wires myself and played with all the buttons. The only thing that stumped me (for no very good reason) was the speakers (of all things) but, luckily The Big Tall Boy and I stumbled through it somehow, and got that working too. (Thank Heaven for lit-tle boys!)

All I've been managing to work on is a little cross stitch pattern for winter... my painting, sculpting, doll house, doll making, weaving, etc etc etc has all had a little break. Even my sewing machine. (The cover has been on it for a bit...) I'm cyclic. (And this is also why It takes all I have in me to work on commissions. I've ALWAYS been a go-by-feel kinda girl. If I don't feel like it, I don't do it. I allow myself that freedom, without guilt. (Guilt; BAH HUMBUG!)

I saw "Masters of the Universe" today in Walmart, and SO wanted to purchase it. But resisted the urge. hehe.

I'm so so so so pleased with my energy, so pleased with my heart, so pleased with everything. I AM the master of my universe. (Everything I wanted....)

giggle-snort.

Brr. Cold.

Brr Cold. Shovelling sucks. It's a great work out though.

I've been M.I.A. for, oh, I dunno... Two weeks? I HATE that. But now, we're back online and ready to rock!

I figure there's about two more GOOD weeks to shop at our store if you are in the US, and probably 3 if you are in Canada (unless ofcourse you are in Ontario, then your very last minute to shop would probably be about 7 biz days before Christmas.. but I wouldn't leave it that long if I wuz yous!)

My home has never been as incredibly unorganized as it is right now. That drives me crazy, but I need three of me to take care of all that's going on. Messy house, lots of different art pieces, meals, laundry, boring boring boring, good stuff with my pixies and big tall boy, and the all important coffee-with-girlfriends. (or coffee all by myself and my journal. That's the way, uh-huh uh-huh, I like it, uh-huh uh-huh.)

The new computer ushers in a new work from home dealeo. Bated breath and all that. The energy is out there, the money's gettin' spent, so this has GOT to work. Just GOT to. And the Universe provides when I need it most. Always.

So, I guess that's the update.

oh, wait, have you seen The Darjeeling Limited? Hellofa Great film. Made my mind race, my brain work, and I wanted to write a whole thesis on the hierarchy of siblings and the symbolism in it. Watch it, we'll discuss.
