I have recently been re-reading Outlander and blogging about it as a commentary by chapter. So far, I have been diligent in writing a blog a day, and I hope that I can continue on with this. I have set this as a goal for myself throughout the series in hopes that I can finish what I start...I may stop between books for a while just to give myself a little breather, but I am going to finish this.
Lately there have been some interesting signs that Chameron has been around me and wants me to do something for her and our other friend, Angie. I don't see Chameron, but I do feel this pull to do what she wants done. I feel like she wants me to take Angie to her grave because Angie needs her to finish the past and continue on with the future.
Angie never got to see Chameron's grave and I think she regrets that. It is time for me to step in and help Angie with this.
I have steadily progressed in getting better. My stamina is finally building and I think that my immune system is getting stronger. I am happy about this because I miss being able to walk everywhere and do the things that I love. I no longer wear masks for any reason unless I feel a cold coming on, and that is rare.
As spring progresses, I am feeling very nostalgic and very magickal. Outside of Outlander, I have been building my energies so that I can practice my craft once more.
I am also devoting time every day to reading and interacting with Wiccan and Occult books. I am considering doing reviews on the books that I have read and the ones that I will read in the future. I am still considering this, so it may take while before I do it...there is also Outlander to consider as well.
I am a fan of a YouTube content creator named Mamma Squirrel and we are doing a book club right now about Marion Zimmer Bradley's novel Mists of Avalon. I love this book since it is strong in the way of women's fiction.
Now, I know about Marion's (ex) husband and what happened there. I know that what happened was wrong, but I must say that there were other parts of the history and story behind Bradley that is also wrong in how this came about...and why. I will not talk about this since I feel that the entire story from start to finish is wrong on the parts of ALL parties, and so I will focus on the book itself.
My job is going very well. I am still in love with it. I also love my boss and his family. They are kind and considerate. I love the fact that they trust me and encourage me to bring in my books and knitting to do while I am waiting for customers. They know that my job is mostly a waiting game most days and I can't clean 5 to 6 hours a day every day.
I take my Fire tablet in and watch my shows too. I can watch those without worry and I have my Kindle and my games on it too so that I don't get bored...however, I do have Outlander, Mists and knitting with me.
I haven't been knitting much lately due to Outlander, and I should since I have at least three or four projects started that I should finish before Christmas...one is actually going to be a present for a family member.
I may start back up when I do a binge watch of Outlander in the coming weeks. I may start that today since this is a three day weekend due to Memorial Day....of course, Monday is Memorial Day and I get busy that day with carrying the flag at the grave sight services we do and the prayer that I give at the ceremony that we hold later in the morning.
I have been doing more for the Auxiliary lately...but I am still disillusioned by the organization in my unit. I don't feel like it is family anymore and I think that I may just stop doing a lot for it in the near future. I don't know yet, since my stepmother is active in the organization.
There is something that I miss every year...the park where I discovered my path. It is in Milford and that is the place where I often walked and gained energy and power. I miss it because it is where I read Mists and Echo (by Diana Gabaldon) for the first time. I also spent time hiding from everyone there. I loved that park and want to go back soon.
I also miss the original Covenspace and the people that helped me become the witch that I was becoming...even though I strayed away from it for a while when I moved away. I wish that I knew where those people were now.
I want to re-read Sherilyn Kenyon's books too. I haven't read them in years and I recently put them all on my Kindle so that I can read them again. I may do that as well. I know that is a bit much with my pagan books, Mists and Outlander, but it is how I am feeling right now...it is part of this strong feeling of nostalgia that I am having.
Blessed Be
