Winter Solstice

Hope you all have a wonderful winter solstice and if you do Christmas. Hope the new year is bright and beautiful for you all and I will see you all in the new year. :)

Winter Solstice

So before I start going on about 2010 I really should make a post about winter solstice. I haven't made a blog about the festivals in ages so I thought I should make this one :P

I haven't really got anything planned, just meditation (hopefully), lighting some incense, giving thanks to the land for all the warmth and food it has offered to us. Also putting back into the ground the acorns and conkers from Samhain. I normally celebrate winter solstice on the 21st December or when the full moon is (which I think is on the 31st December), so I think I will be celebrating at both times..If that makes any sense.

I do also celebrate Christmas (you should all know when that is), why? Because of my parents, my family. They have always celebrated it and I did when I was little and so it still stays. To me Christmas is a time to be thankful for those who are alive, like your family, friends, neighbours etc.

But anyways, in case I am not on here for winter solstice or Christmas (and if anyone reads this) I hope you all have a wonderful day :) Also I hope you all have a wonderful New Year. :)

Stressed out

These past few months seem to be going really fast and busy, I havent had much time to actually get intouch with my spiritual side, its annoying me as that is what I wanted to do before the new year but I guess there is a meaning for that.

I have finally made the bath bombs and they came out really well, my partner tried one and well it skimmed across the surface of the bath water instead of going to the bottom and fizzing, guess I put too much energy into them lol!
Also made the body scrubs and bath bombs, really pleased with them also. I also made some soap but I dont know about them, they dont seem to be getting hard just staying soft ish, hopefully they will be ok.
Gotten most of the Christmas presents sorted out, just need a few more for people but they are so difficult to get!

Also trying to get some photos printed of for my Nan as she cant get here so I thought to show her what it looks like, also a few photos of her great grandsons. The only problem is I dont really know how to print them off as they also end up having half of the photo on, so its annoying me slowly.

I have been pretty stressed with getting all of this sorted out trying to dodge the flipping postal strikes also which doesnt help at all. >_<
I havent really had time to celebrate Samhain either which has annoyed me the most as its one of my favourite festivals, plus I wanted to celebrate my late loved ones life. Tonight is the last day (I celebrate Samhain for 3 days, either on 1st Nov or when the full moon is), so I am really hoping to get things ready for tonight.

I have a list high long in my head and on paper that I need to do but it never seems to be getting smaller, but I am trying to take a break from worrying and stressing about it, its just really hard to do so when you are a worry freak! >_<
Anyways I think I should stop writing now :P

A break from youtube

Mic has broken so I wont be able to make videos for a while..But I guess that is a good thing. It gives me a chance to actually concentrate on myself and whats happening with my life. Ive been so focused on trying to make videos to help others that I have forgotten to help myself.

Also it gives me a chance to practise making things, like the bath and body set that Im hoping to have ready for Christmas (for my mum in-laws). I am hoping to start getting things and making them next week.

I'll still be writing on here, so you aint got rid of me just yet :P

This and that

Been such a long time since I have posted anything in here, so here goes :)

Well I have been mostly on YouTube everyday and as well as world of warcraft - but I seem to have settled down on that.. Also been looking at buying ingredients for the bath bombs etc, as well as finding new things to make like Dream pillows and loose incense.
Bought most of the herbs I needed for them two things as well as the oils. My first two "customers" are gonna be my boyfriends mums (His dads partner and his actually mum - in case people got confused)..So I need to get practicing for Christmas coming up!

Anyways, I keep making videos on YouTube saying that I will make this video and that video..but they never get made SO, I am gonna make a reminder of which videos I should start focusing on soon.


The videos:
Info on panic attacks/anxiety(Sp?)
Herbs that help panic/anxiety attacks/ways to help reduce them
Where I like to walk
The field where the girls were

So That is basically what has been happening with me. I will (hopefully) keep updating this more often, and will try and upload some photos of the finished products before I wrap them up for Christmas lol :)
