My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

spring cleaning

where did this come from? this cold, icy weather with a wind that just about blows my washing into the next state... my poor garden doesn't know what to do... here are the new spring shoots peeping out and before they have a chance to open their leaves they are frozen to death.

so that is why I never, ever start my spring cleaning til after our term 3 school break. At this time of year, I never know if I will be needing a woollen jumper or an overcoat from one day to the next. And if they are all washed and folded til next winter - I find it hard to wear them. I would rather freeze to death and if I have cleaned the fireplace out for the year, I just cannot bring myself to light a fire..... all that ash and soot flying around my freshly spring cleaned house.... no, I will wait til Mother Nature has had her menopausal moment until the end of September...

Sorry about your cold weather! Ours is just a month away. I love the beauty of the changing seasons, but I don't like the 'coats' part. Or the boots! oh well. I got your e-mail...hurray...and will think about the forum. Blogging keeps me busy. I'm impressed that you have the know-how to start a forum. Its a nice idea...who knows how big it could grow to be. *smiles*
