Yep ~ I'm still alive. ;) I've been completely engulfed by the world of Gaia, & I'm sorry lol. It's like...I can't afford to buy myself new stuff in real life, so buying things on Gaia makes me feel like I really have new stuff ROFL *shakes head*
ANYWAYS... I've been working a lot. Too much for my taste. One girl on my shift got fired; and the only other person on my shift has only been allowed, like, 12 hours a week because my manager's been trying to get rid of him, which she finally may have. (Personally, I think the boy's a fairly good worker, he just half asses the cooler sometimes, heh.) So, it's between me & the assistant manager, & there's generally 2 people on a shift, so... *blah*!! But whatever. I could certainly use the money haha
And, so, I haven't been a "good pagan" lately :/ *slaps self on wrist* hehe. I haven't really been practicing much of anything recently. No rituals, no crafts. I guess I'm feelin' a bit "meh", which would probably suggest I should START doing those things, eh? Hahaha ~ Yes. And I will. :) The thing with rituals and the like is that I don't like practicing when my boyfriend's around; we're both a bit clingy, & a second alone is a second too long hehehe. Yea, we're *still* madly in love. And yea, our sink is *still* a piece of crap LOL
So, in conclusion (for now), I obviously haven't forgotten about this site, my wonderful friends here, or my groups. I promise to do my best to be around more often!!! Now I'm off to say some hellos & add a bit of info to my Holiday's group (I haven't forgotten about the upcoming equinox, either!!!)
Much love & I'll see ya guys around!!! <3 :D *hugs!!!*
Well, I've been spending the majority of my online time on *Gaia*, a website I'd heard mention of on Craftster & decided to check out. I'm pretty sure I came across it & was playing for at least a couple of days some odd months or years ago, but I'd completely forgotten about it.
Now I'm obsessed LOL
It's quite a bit anime-based, but not every user is a fan (including me, hehe).
The *Wikipedia article* explains it better than I can, for those who have never heard of it, though the article only begins touching on all the fun things you can do.
So, I thought I'd write a quick blog about it on here for those of you who get as bored as I do & wanna try something new.
If you decide to join, or if you're already on, I'm *Ska Hippie* :D <3
A couple of "paranormal" experiences, from a very skeptical family...
So, I'll try to make this as simple as possible. My boyfriend's mom's name is Lisa. Lisa had 3 sisters, one who passed away a couple weeks or so ago. As stated in my previous blog, her mother just passed away the other day.
First paranormal experience, which, when Lisa was telling us this stuff today, this very skeptical woman shed a couple tears. Apparently, one of her sisters was at the sister who passed away's old apartment, helping to clean. A couple of their kids were there with them, & they were out in the backyard playing "ring around the rosy", & someone was taping it with their camera phone. Afterwards, they were watching it on the phone, &, apparently, you can see a perfect image of a woman all in white come into the center of the circle & touch everyone's hands.
Second, Lisa & one of her sisters were at their parents' ouse today, cleaning out some of their mother's jewelry & such. They dumped absolutely everything out & reorganized it. The whole time, they were searching for one specific piece of jewelry ~ a small white heart on a very thin chain, which was once given to their deceased sister. They couldn't find it anywhere. So, they came upon a photo album, & the first picture they happened upon was a pic of said sister with the necklace on. So, this fueled their drive to find it. In the first drawer that Lisa had opened, there was the necklace, in plain sight. This is completely boggling their minds.
Lastly, everything that Lisa's mom had divided up between the sisters was determined by herself in a letter, which was written in 1995. The interesting piece here is that everything was divided up between three of the four sisters ~ the three who remain today. Also, as far as pillows & picture frames & whatnot, everything is in sets of 3. And there was no way that their mother would have been able to alter all of this in the short amount of time between the sister's passing & her own; also, there were absolutely no harsh feelings between the deceased sister & the rest of the family that would have caused nothing to be left for her.
So, I've been dealing with some very confused family today, hehe. They simply don't know what to think of what's going on. I, on the other hand, am just sitting back with a smile, basking in how beautiful these experiences are, as I'm sure Lisa's mom's & sister's spirits are as well. (Does this make me weird??)
