Morning all! I hope it still is by the time I get this blog to load up, lol! (((Group Hug)))

It’s a gorgeous HOT summer, Saturday morning here in the valley. Yesterday afternoon and last night’s full moon soaking rains combined with the heat and the sun of today will make my garden very happy… which in turn makes me very happy :) Plans for the day? Nope! Not a one… as a matter fact I fully intend to putter about with no regard for time or schedule. I was served breakfast in bed this morning and I suppose it set the tone for the day! Thanks, honey :P

I’ve been ‘full mooning’ it all week and have had a good deal of success in drawing blessings to me. Isn’t it funny that when you expect it the least you wind up with the most wonderful surprises? Earlier this week I was just going along, enjoying the sudden break in taxi service (Amber got a car!), chatting with a certain witchy love when she suggests something for herself that hit me with such force and power, I was nearly dazed. OMG’s, I know the direction I want to take! Holy crap!! I’ve been in a holding pattern for a long time now. Waiting for the children to grow, waiting for oh I don’t know… the grass to grow, I guess. I knew that a major change was at hand in my life. Of course it was… I’ve just passed the forty mark a few years ago… but until just this week I hadn’t any real clear idea as to what, where, when or why. You know how it is… the more you try to figure it out the less clear it becomes so you just hold tight and trust. Ha! What a great build up, eh? This is going to sound less monumental to you than the earth shaking revelation it was to me. I’m going back to school… full time for a BA in Arts, concentration arts management. What the hell am I going to do with that, you ask? You’ll see, my friends! I assure you it won’t go unused or idle. All I have to do is figure out how to fit floriculture in there and I’ll be all set :P Now, you must understand, normally I mull things over for a ridiculous amount of time before I make a decision but when something’s right, it’s right. In a matter of a few days I’ve chosen a school, picked a major and a minor, filled out all the appropriate applications, banged out a brilliant admissions essay and started the funding process! I feel the full moon’s blessings in a huge way and I don’t have a single misgiving. This is meant for me. It fits. My whole 20+ career as a florist I've been going in the service entrance... I'm coming in through the front door from now on.

Well, there you have it… and I owe the timeliness of it all to one special, incredible, stupendous witch. I love you, dear. May you receive the return of this blessing bestowed x’s ten!

Hope everyone’s full moon was fab! Enjoy the weekend, dear friends.

Full moon blessings and love… xxx ooo
