Well, things were insane....

Had so much going on! Didn't have time to come on here and do much. I was volunteering at a little boutique, but am not anymore.  The owner and I were good friends, but suddenly we are not. It happens. People come and go in our lives. It doesn't do to cling to them when they don't want to be there.

I went to a festival. Kaleidoscope Gathering at Raven's Knoll in Eganville, Ontario. I had the best time of my life. I felt like I came home. It's a community of pagans with different faith beliefs, and yet... they are tolerant, accepting, and caring. Something people of other faiths can learn from. They are a community with a common core and love is one of them. Why is it so hard for the rest of the world to be this way?

I made some amazing friends. Had some fun moments, great laughs, spiritual experiences, and I plan to return next year. I learned about henna while there. And now I'm considering getting into henna. I really enjoyed it and when I came home with the small tube from the workshop, I did some henna on my sister and niece and my eldest grand-daughter. Turned out not too bad.

I don't plan to stop making crafts. One of the vendors told me that they know someone who might want to buy my dragon eyes. I paint them myself. I also have some cute amulets I made and other jewelry. Trying to find a way to sell them.

I love this photo of myself with the Vikings. I'd met them at a Meet, Meat and Mead. Which means they had this huge fire pit with lots of meat roasting and they offered mead to drink. You get to chat and meet people, eat good food, and have a few good laughs. I'd never tried mead before that evening, and it was really good.

Drinking water from a horn. That was quite the experience. But I remember the rule, "Point down, you don't drown."

My good friend and I at our sleeping tent on the first day, just chilling before it gets dark.

My grand-daughters came out for a day. After a swim in the river, we had some lunch.

Then the girls got to model someone's beautiful flower head-piece. It was gorgeous.

My little cat ears! Love them!

Someone did soem beautiful henna on me. It looked great, didn't it?

Well, that's it for today. I still have so much to do. I'm finally watching The Walking Dead. On season 5. My bestie got me hooked on it.
