Monday Mutterings

The Moo

Happy Monday!  I know, I know - it's been a while, right?  I swear, this has been one of my busiest times, the last six months or so.  Too much to do, not near enough time.

But things are going well!  My book has been turned in (fingers crossed it doesn't get sent back with a big, "Thanks, but no thanks" stamped across it, lol!).  Miss M. just finished a volunteer stint and a play.  My middle guy is doing well (knocks wood!) in his first year of high school, and oldest is trucking along at being employed.  
Today is The Moo's  (formerly known as Mimi) first anniversary of living with us.  We cooked up a bunch of yummy dog treats yesterday in honor of the occasion.

And I have to quickly clear something up, because several people have brought it to my attention.  A post of mine was linked to on a blog.  The post, which was written some time ago, has been connected with some sort of witch-war going on between a few people (or groups, I'm not really sure of the logistics on all of this).  Let me just state for the record (I also left a comment at the blog to do the same), that the post was not about any of the groups or people mentioned on that blog.  I am actually Facebook friends with several of the people listed on the blog, though I am not a member of Pagans Against Plagiarism (I'm not a member of a lot of groups, though, so that isn't a comment on the group itself either way).  I have no idea what this whole thing is about, I'm not a part of it from either side, and I frankly don't appreciate being brought into it - though it's nice to read that I am "famous", lol.  Please someone be sure to pass that information on to my mom.  I'm sure she'd be pleased  - and I really would think that being famous would pay better?

So anyhoo, I am, as I'm sure all of you are, super busy this time of year.  I've got all sorts of plans for this blog coming up in the New Year, and I hope you'll stick around to check them all out!!

Upcoming!

Whew!  This holiday season is keeping me jumping and busy!  However, I am lining up a few things for the blog, including some reviews of a few really interesting books I've come across and in honor of the upcoming hibernation winter season, which is straight up learning time in my book, I'm planning on a big theme month starting January 1.  It's going to be dedicated to all things Mexican, including foods, drinks, spiritual practices and deities.  There will be recipes, primers on ingredients, how to tell a good tequila, gods, goddesses and perhaps a few giveaways here and there.  Let the cold winds blow outside, we'll be having a fiesta at CPSM!

Hope you'll stay tuned for the fun!  And if you haven't joined in yet, make sure to come check out the CPSM blog page at https://www.facebook.com/ConfessionsofaPaganSoccerMom.  There are a ton of daily discussions going on there!
