Who am I
Well I am a grandparent through marriage . I know there are a lot of blogs about rituals and so on. I thought I would share what we do with the little ones and the interactions that we have with them. Due to circumstances we have had some live with us off and on. This will just be on some of the trials and tribulations of intergenerational living and multiple parents and parenting skills interacting. I am far from being a professional in child rearing, I just do my best. I am just putting out postings to give food for thought for those of you that may run into or running into the same situations! I will also be posting items that I am handcrafting for sale as they come along. AND ways to make them with your kid/grandkids.
I hope you enjoy my postings.

A haven for anyone with wolf tendencies, kinship, lycanthropy, therianthropy, totemic association, or a spiritual path that demonstrates close kinship with wolves. People that are curious about us are also welcome, but any bashing, flaming, or stupidity will not be tolerated. This is not a place for politics or fantasy. This is a support and mutual education group. There are no Alpha's here, there are no rulers here. We each are responsible for our own actions. This is an adult website, and adult behavior is expected. If you are afraid to reveal something of your wolfy self, then feel free to lurk, participation is not required. Sometimes a sense of pack is all you need, the idea that someone does understand where you're coming from. I hope you will find that, support and peace here.
A group for any who find or practice in/with or just love the night/moon. Any and all are welcome whether they have walked the dark paths or are just curious. Mind you, darkness has a negative connotation and that is something I would like to change. Come and share, ask questions and learn with us as we blow the candle out and begin (or continue) our journey of discovery.

I love you Jim! That definetly needed to be said I completely agree, beauty is very much determined by behaviour not genetics. You are beautiful inside and out, I like your passion and caring.
AdaI met my mate Yarom online....in another pagan site, we interacted on several and then talked on the phone. Added in Facebook and more talking. We saw pictures (unretouched) of each other, and knew we really liked each other.

We met IRL 10/29/10 going to a Shadowcast of Rocky Horror. He thought I would be shorter and wasn't convinced I was straight. I didn't know he'd be such a big guy. We had a great time (sparks flew) and burned the phone lines up till our next date 2 weeks later. Fireworks blew at that one and we've been together ever since.
We're not too bad, but we both aren't as thin as we'd like to be and I am 8 1/2 years older then him. less
Laura StampsHoly moly, I get slammed for 2 days cause of the radio interview and Jim writes about me in his blog post. WOOT!!! I'm totally flattered, good lookin!

Yeah, what you see is what you get with this trashy Fey chick. Except I'm worse in person, which you can kinda tell from my radio interview. And taller than people think. But like Ada, I met my two loves online. ~swoon~

Through a friend I met or should say talked to this guy on the phone for a month and he had such a nice voice and personality. Then one day we went on a date. I'm married to him now and in total have been together for 12 years :) I fell in love with him before we actually met. I'm all about how beautiful people are inside. Thanks for posting this!

We then decided to meet up and we have been together ever since. ;) I think not only low self-esteem but maturaity plays a large part of people acting this way. I find that the more I have matured the less I have really cared about what a person looks like and more about what makes them who they are.

Anyways did you ever think about reporting said persons? Work is suppose to be a professional environment and they should not be making such comments about their customers. *Sigh*
glittergirl
Oh yes Jim its nice to have someone l think a different way then the stereotypical way people seem to act. I am glad you are better then that. :)
Jim Weeder
I would report it but here they dont care as long as the customer doesnot hear it ggggrrrrr it is nice to see like minded people here! it is a breath of fresh air! The other note is how many have met their mates online or on the phone!

Personally I haven't had any luck meeting someone online. The few that I did turned out to be real jerks and the one I actually dated cheated on me multiple times.
But I still hold hope that there is someone out there who is actually honest and spending a life time with and understand that I am an explorer and thus always on a search for knowledge and will always be trying new things. :)
Jim WeederLuckily for him it was in the lunchroom and she was well out of earshot.

IF she had heard it and I saw it happen the torrent that would have come out of my mouth would have made the Pope go do 5000 hail Mary’s! I would have torn him such a new A** he would not have known what hit him! Cate and I met online also and it took a few to find her. Don’t give up hope!

But think of it this way, it gives you something to giggle about later ;) my sister used to set me up with her friends "who were always 'perfect for me' " NOT !! I found my prince online too, it was kind of cool it was like old style courting with the emails (letters) going back and forth. I knew more about him before we ever met in person than I ever did about anyone before, and he knew things about me that I had never shared with anyone. When we finally met it was easy and comfortable, and we have been together ever since :) less
