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

a new convert


yes ! I am a Johnny Cash fan - as of tonight. I have just seen the movie * Walk the line* the story of Johnny Cash. It was wonderful. It wasn't my choice but the soul mate really wanted to see it...so I went in with my extra large bucket of popcorn and settled in ...and then the music started and my foot started tapping and I was entranced. I ended up crying a little during the movie when 'ring of fire' was sung.You see, my dad loved country music and I grew up with it - Slim Dusty, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash and lots of others. But I hated it, I would cringe when my friends came and out would come my dad with his vinyls and play the dreadful music. How embarrasing!



walk the line
- ooh girls, that Joaquin Phoenix is a bit of a honey in the movie

I can't remember when we last went to the cinema, I think it was to see Shrek2 - that long ago!

I saw a music video for a song that Johnny Cash covered by the hard-rock band Nine Inch Nails, called Hurt. He put his own unique spin on the song and vocals, it was a very moving song indeed. I recommend it.

I saw Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash live and I've never forgotten it. He's truly a Country Music Legend. I still need to see the movie, all my girls have.
