THIS BLOG IS NOW CLOSED......
I found that there was another blog called "An Enchanted Cottage" I decided that I didn't want the "competition" and figured that this new chapter in my life was worthy of a new start on a blog as well....This one has served me well despite my very sporadic posts here.....
A new chapter, a new start, a new Voice, a new Blog; Follow me to: The Witch of Blue Moon Cottage, here's the link: http://thewitchofbluemooncottage.blogspot.com/
Look forward to seeing you there!

The Past Year.....(and a half).....
So....my last post was on April 4th of 2011....If good intentions were dollar bills......
However, the good news is that in the time since I last posted I have been very busy at making my life happen, at making my life the Enchanted Life I've always wanted!
In the past year and a half:
- I turned 50 and LOVING it!
- I have accomplished all my goals regarding my living situation: I have decluttered, sorted and cleaned up 22 years worth of crap!
- I have broken the cycle of 30 years of bad habits, of bad choices....I have given myself a "restart" button...my life begins here, now.....
- I bought a house; actually a tiny cottage in the woods (my witch's cottage in the woods) and it's because of the decision to buy this house that I was finally able to have that breakthrough that I needed to leave this destructive pattern I was living in.
In my last post I talked about my decision to blog about my struggles while working at this "enchanted life"....I discovered that wasn't possible, I could barely deal with it myself, let alone write about it. It was an intensely painful, horrific time in my life, I had to, literally, dig through piles of neglect, hurt, anger and denial, piles and piles of clothes, boxes, stacks of just stuff....all these physical belongings, piled high in a subconscious fort around myself...between the food and the "stuff" I was insulating myself against MYSELF....I was in complete denial about how bad it had gotten....that is until the Goddess created a serious of serendipitous events that lead to the buying of this house, this tiny little cottage that is only 992 square feet of cozy, magickal, quiet, lovely HOME.
The Goddess lead me to my dream cottage, she presented the opportunity to buy it on a moonbeam silver platter, the only stipulation: in order to live there I would have to plow through all my piles of crap and whittle those piles down by 90% to be able fit what I needed into my tiny little cottage....so 22 years of neglected 'stuff' had to be gone through in a two month time span....hardest, but most rewarding, two months of my life. The amount of trash that put out on the tree lawn of that house for 6 weeks in a row was embarrassing...but it's done, I lived through it and came out the other side of it a happier, whole, satisfied person.
I now to get live my dream life, living in my beloved forest, surrounded by the things I truly love, entertaining my friends and just living in peace with myself and my surroundings and I look forward sharing my Enchanted Life with you....
