“I didn’t lose my faith I threw it away.” That is so true! I’ve never heard it described that way…perfect!

Oh my. May 1st already. Been busting my ancient ass getting the garden ready for planting. Getting too old for physical labor. Gods and goddesses are not helping. They must be busy elsewhere.

Beltane Blessings, Debra! May the sun shine on your face today and for the rest of the season.
I've been away for a week and missed some posts but I will just say:
1. Go Oilers! Disappointed for the Kraken but, oh well.
2. Fuckity Fuck is alright by me!
3. Those cats - definitely guilty.

Cheers!

Candi Carpenter's solemn singing and solemn expression belies the fact that the lyrics are quite comical.

Rosemary said...

"Everybody goes to hell in somebody else's religion"
This should be a bumper sticker. It's not. I looked.
