A Mad Tea Party is coming...

Happy Friday, my friends. It is that time again for The Mad Tea Party hosted by the lovely Vanessa of A Fanciful Twist. If you like to join in, you have plenty of time. The only requirements are creativity and fun which I know you all have! Go here to sign up


Come and join me on July 11th. It will be filled with tea, cakes and a bit of sweet madness. Here is me at my first Mad Tea Party way back in 2009.

Dream Thought #76: Keep your heart open to Dreams

“Keep your heart open to dreams. For as long as there’s a dream, there is hope, and as long as there is hope, there is joy in living.” -Anonymous

Memorial day

Hello, my friends. Here in the USA, we are in the midst of a three day weekend in honor of Memorial Day. I like to take this opportunity to remember all those soldiers, men and women, of all races who have fallen in battle.



Whatever celebrations you do, take time today to say a prayer for those soldiers who have passed over. Light a candle for them and simply say thank you.

Dream Thought #75: Celebrating Your Sexuality

“We are all born sexual creatures,thank God, but it's a pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift.”
― Marilyn Monroe

St. Dymphna

Happy Friday. Today is the feast of St. Dymphna. She is one of my favorite Saints. Though not as well known as more famous Saints, she is a kind and loving Saint.

She is the patron Saint of those suffering from mental illness, nervous disorders and sexual abuse.

Since my twenties, I have called on St. Dymphna whenever I felt overwhelmed or stressed. She always comes to my aid. If you like to know more about her, go here.You can also pray to St. Dymphna herself and she will reveal herself to you.

I have to add, I was not raised in the Catholic faith. I have worked with St. Dymphna, I feel she welcomes all those who have need of her assistance.



May St. Dymphna grant you peace and blessings.

Happy Mother's Day

I remember when I first had Jake. I use to marvel at all
the other mothers I see. They appeared so calm and confident. I felt awkward and unsure. What I learned, like most things in life, there is a learning period. Now, being a mom is second nature to me. I always tell people I feel like Jacob was always here. I know the unsure mom I was in 2011 would be pleased at the mom I am now in 2015.

I am wishing all the mother's out there a wonderful Mother's Day. Being a mom comes in many different forms.

Here are recent pictures of Jacob and I.

This is Jake and I doing a selfie together in January.


This is Jake and I coming back from 150th anniversary of NYFD. They had an open house of firehouses all over the city. We went to the firehouse near us. Had a great time. Jake loves firetrucks.

May The Fourth Be With You

My devotion to Star Wars knows no bounds...



I celebrate the lost and those who need redemption,



The ones who made mistakes and still remain true to themselves whatever the cost,



The ones who know wholeness is accepting the light and the dark within,



May The Force Be With you always.

The Flower Moon

Hello, my friends. Tonight is the full moon in the sign of Scorpio. All my Scorpio, moon and sun babies, this is your moon! This moon has lovely names but my favorite is the Flower Moon. It fits with the world around us exploding with flowers all around us. Freeing us from winter's long icy grip and finally feeling the lovely boundless spring energy. I have yellow daisies that I brought on Friday. They are cheery still as night has come. As the daisies and I wait for The Full Moon

I had no idea what to write to honor this Full Moon. Then I got this video from another blogger. It just seemed to fit.This song is from Camelot(1967) starring Richard Harris, Vanessa Redgrave and Franco Nero. I have never seen Camelot, as much as I love Musicals and Arthurian legends. Have to put it on the list of movies to watch. I had no idea that Vanessa Redgrave sang! wow.

Here is the Lusty Month of May from Camelot. Perfect for this month and full Moon. Enjoy. Happy Full Moon blessings.

Happy May Day

Happy Friday, my friends. It's May Day. May is here and finally Spring is beginning to be felt. My favorite apple blossoms are blooming now. Their heavenly scent filling the air. All our sweet wildflowers are coming up to: dandelions, wild iris, violets. It is beautiful to behold. Dandelions, are my old friends from childhood, when there happy faces come up I know it's May.

I wish I could tell you I'll be frolicing with the Faeries later on. Alas, I have Mommy duties to attend to today. Still, I am going to buy flowers in honor of this wonderful day. (And also dance with my ipod later on!)

Wherever you are at, reading this, have fun today. You can:
* Buy yourself flowers
* Go to a local garden
* Bake sweet things
* Dance to music
* Read faerie themed poetry
* Make a list of wishes you like to come true
* Burn candles in colors and scents of Spring





Me and my lovely faerie friend wish you a Merry May Day. Enjoy.
