Backup Accomplished... And Now I Wait

Lake Melvern April 16 with the clan

And yet, they will lie straight to your face about it

Blessed Beltane to all my brothers and sisters. Keep Fire in your hearts, and may the coming days be better for us all! (Blessed Samhain to my brothers and sisters in the Southern Hemisphere. Same message applies!)

A Blessed Equinox to everyone, today. My thanks to the Old Ones for the Father that was mine, passed the Veil 19 years ago today. Whenever I note a Redtail watching me, I know he is, too. Love you, Richard.

Leaf making, and adding to the piece

I am an older fella. Not ashamed to cry, at all. Some of my dearest brothers and sisters have referred to me as "The Sensitive Biker", and we all have a good laugh, because it's true. There is a time when I am crying, that being on the wrong side of me might be a bad thing: I have been known to cry while infuriated...and those who've known me a long time have seen it. And yes, I am pleasd to be able to feel that intensely. There was a time when I had no feelings at all, except rage, and I bottled that shit down deep. Over 33 years ago I made some changes in my life, found and healed that guy inside, and allowed myself to let it out in healthy fashion, whether in laughing or crying, or simply letting myself love life as it is. Have a great day!

Jayne at 5.5 months..46.5 pounds. He is part of the pack now, the grrls having accepted him; they even school him in the household routine! His fusion with the pack has gone much faster than I thought it would. Much credit to my Loki, and the grrls too, for bringing the wrinkleheaded knucklehead along.

For my gardening this year, once Spring has sprung

Bracelet repairs. New clasp for the links, and soldering a broken bracelet back together. That clasp was a challenge!
