Where is this going...

     It has been a long time since I have updated this blog. I had so many plans for it and I was excited and dedicated to making this year a better one than the last. I didn't know then that things would change so quickly.

     My computer died without warning and without any money to fix it I had to wait quite a while until I had one again. I have also been busy with several other things. None of them are particularly good though I am afraid. I have been going through the motions of my life unraveling and it's been hard. The very reasons I felt safe, beautiful and loved have become just a dream. I can't get into any detail about that at the moment but I am scared of what tomorrow holds.

     I had a big wedding with my business partner and our company July 19th so for the past several months we were working almost non stop. It is so far the biggest wedding we have done and it was very stressful because there were a lot of hiccups but all in all it was a learning experience and now we know how to handle things, and what needs to be fixed or improved. We had a small fundraiser for a friend in need too which didn't go as well as we had hoped. We were not able to reach the goal we set but I know the out pouring of love helped him as well.

     I have lost a few people near and dear to my also. One of my uncles who lived in Texas. And a woman who for all intents and purposes was a grandmother to me. I don't handle death very well and its been hard to deal with.

     I had been reaffirming my spirituality this year, and yes I am Wiccan. Think what you must but let me tell you this: I understand the fear of the unknown and yes Hollywood and religious nuts have painted a scary picture. However, it isn't at all what you think. Its an earth based religion (pagan) which utilizes the earth and nature, you might as well call us hippies to an extent. Also a lot of your catholic and christian beliefs are pagan based. Anyways... I started a small coven of Neophytes (Beginners) and was teaching them when one of them decided to show us her true nature and things came to a head when she started fights with everyone. She is not a kind person and now that negativity is removed from my life.

    Hopefully soon things will start getting better. For now here are some pics.
