Duendesday: my little witch

Oh, my little burgeoning witch; to where or what direction will her witchy ways blossom? Will she be a Hedge or Folk Witch like me? A Forest Witch, a Kitchen Witch, a Faerie Witch? Somehow I see her (though I can’t tell her, she needs to feel it out on her own) as a CeremonialContinue reading “Duendesday: my little witch”

Duendesday: a new day

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} There’s going to be a new sheriff around here, and it’s not going to be some sweet little sassy 10 yr old I know – ha! No, she’s a good girl but we need to reassess the way we do things. She’s at a new junctureContinue reading “Duendesday: a new day”

Duendesday: Midwinter

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} Happy Midwinter! Our Imbolc holiday was nice – we put away our Winter celebratory stuffs (take down the tree, put away the lights, stockings, and decorations of which I try and keep to 2-3 medium boxes, no more), we cleaned (it’s so important to take theContinue reading “Duendesday: Midwinter”

Duendesday: the Crazies

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} We have stepped into Kid Twilight Zone…hear the music? She’s officially gone off the deep end. It’s all cardboard, all the time. This past week she made cardboard and cloth flip-flop’s for the dog and when he didn’t want to wear them, she made him cardboardContinue reading “Duendesday: the Crazies”

Duendesday: January Thaw

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} Duende Bloo is always planning something. A tea party, a wedding, a birth of puppies, and this week a soiree (she’s been trying out dresses and dances and considering punch). She plans tiny Lincoln Log villages with protective dogs trolling about, and mounts dolls on mightyContinue reading “Duendesday: January Thaw”

Duendesday: Hard Work

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} Snow can be hard work – for us (well, for Josh) it includes shoveling the drive, the walk, the car, and to and around the chicken coop. When Josh is feeling good and ambitious he shovels a path up to the top of our little hill,Continue reading “Duendesday: Hard Work”

Duendesday Wednesday!

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} I told you all about her cardboard creations and then she goes and makes a spaceship for the cat, resplendent with buttons/levers/a handheld radio and a helmet – she shaped, designed, and painted it, also adding a plastic bag window (for both the ship and theContinue reading “Duendesday Wednesday!”

Duendesday!

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} My little Solstice Faerie – she doesn’t want for much but there are a few things that make her happy – generally ways to interact with others; building kits, art supplies, games, and activities that are easily inclusive. Every now and again she’s jazzed about somethingContinue reading “Duendesday!”

Duendesday Already!

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} What keeps this gal’s mind churning when she’s cabined up with us old people? Puzzles, games, and Kiwi crates cover a lot of ground (recently we have a glut of geography ‘Atlas’ boxes; we visited Indonesia the other night, resplendent with a ‘batik’ bag and aContinue reading “Duendesday Already!”

Duendesday!

{life with a curious and crazy 10 yr old} Pre-snow adventures – as usual, out in the weather, underdressed though after half a foot of fluffy wet snow, she was head-to-toe bundled. So stiff she could barely make it out the door, to find a sled, and carry a bucket around knocking down icicles. ButContinue reading “Duendesday!”
