Spells for the Wolfraine

Another day, and another fantasy character comes to life... I've been bored of life and in a bit of a depressed hole again lately, but there have been so many things going on and I'm still dealing with mourning mum so I'm in a weird headspace... Fantasy characters come to life, they seem to bring life to my sadness and they seem to be helping... So today, we find another character and another story to tell... 

Our character today is a magical spell come to life... In the Arcane Library - a backdrop from K&S - one of the novice wizards may have caused a small issue, whilst looking through the spell book on the table, a summoning spell brought forth one of the Winter Wolfraine. The Wolfraine - the name of the set of ears and tail from everfaery, available until November 29th at Abnormality - are wolves but similar to their furry counterparts but closer to Were... They are bringers of Winter... They are friends of the Snowflake folk - which are the MishMish Snowflake Lamps - and now that she's here, there is a big chance that things will be getting colder again...

Missing You!

Today is the day that one year ago, everything changed... Life changed and would NEVER be the same again... One year ago today, my mum was told that she had pancreatic cancer and it was non-treatable... She was given an estimated time-line, she chose to keep it quiet and live her last few months without alerting people to the fact that she did not have long left... When we found out, it was news that broke my sister and I, and it was only a few weeks late that my mother passed away... Life changed forever... 

It's now been about 4 months since we lost her, but the pain of grief doesn't ease... It shifts and changes, altering course and becoming something different, though the one thing that has become apparent to me is that grief is not linear... One step forward, can be five steps back and a dance of twirling proportions in the middle... The main thing in all of this is, Mummy I still really really miss you... I miss you so much, I cannot bear it. It's not always so bad but right now, it's breaking my heart... I miss you... 
So today I'm going to be sitting quietly and drinking a cold beer, and thinking of you for a while... I miss you, I love you, I always will...

We Will Remember...

Today in the UK, and in many other places in the world, it has been Remembrance Day... 
On the 11th minute of the 11th hour of the 11th day in the 11th month, WWI ended and people were in a state of shock and sadness. Many young men, fighting on both sides, lost their lives and since then the world has been at war in it's entirety only once... All those losses have not been enough to stop the wars and fighting that happened since then... Today, we remember those that we lost... 

The fact that there is so much fighting and unrest in the world still seems to point to the fact that we have not learned much from past mistakes. Russia and Ukraine are still ongoing, Palestine and Israel is taking far longer than it should and people should be allowed to live in peace, but even the streets these days seem like the streets are dangerous places to be... Things are so full of unrest... Is there any way that things will calm down at any time soon?! 
I know loss this year, I miss my mother every day and even though it wasn't through war, it's a loss of my personal hero... We will remember the fallen heroes, we will honour them and maybe one day their sacrifice will cause peace among men?

Soups On!

The weather is cold and sunshiny, there's a mist in the air and everything has been feeling so warm and cozy that a girl can't help but smile a little... Autumn has always been my favourite season, and I LOVE wrapping up warm and toastie while it's cold outside... It's sweater weather, and that means I can start making things that are warm and cozy for dinner... YUMMY and YAY!!!

I'm the kinda girl that LOVES cozy dinners... Jacket potatoes were the food that I was pining for when Hell and I were able to move back home after the rebuild... I could eat jacket potatoes every day. I love casseroles and stews, I love hearty dinners, but I will make an admission... I know people get excited that it's Soup Season, but I'm really not a soup kinda girl... Sometimes a Tomato soup is lovely, a French Onion soup can be delicious, and Hell even made a Pumpkin soup once that was heavenly, but normally... I'm not gonna choose soup!

Fall Time Outside!

It's been a long, lazy Sunday and while the sun was shining, it seemed like the perfect day to be outside. There have been some lovely, sunny, fresh days and even though it's been cold it has been beautiful... SO chores were wonderful to be getting on with outside, and I had to get a lot of things done... 

I'll take some of my puppy dog friends outside and get to work... I was dressed up all warm and cozy, I LOVE my new boots - the Runa Shoes, available from miss chelsea at Anthem now - and while I was outside they kept my toes nice and toasty warm... If only though there were things that could keep my puppies occupied... I swear I spent more then enough time raking the same piles of leaves, purely because I had two chaos monsters with me LOL...

Honkraiser... A Different Kind of Hell Guard

There has been a lot of crazy noises coming from the birds on the roof today, they seem to be tap dancing or something... It's like they have been dragging chains over the flat roof, and causing utter chaos... I wonder what kinda chaos they are planning... It can't be something too dramatic... Or can it?!

I guess it depends on the type of birds causing the chaos... Some of the little birds in my garden are so pretty, I love looking at the tits and sparrows and the pair of robins that come down for food... The park even has a siege of heron's that sound like pteradactyls, and a rogue colony of green parakeets, but I think the worst over there happens to be the gaggle of geese. Geese are the scariest mofos in the park... 
Maybe there is a reason for them to have all of those scary fecking teeth... Maybe they are like the Heckhonker - a release from LORE for Camp Syndicate until November 8th - or is that Honkraiser?! I bet that the geese could give Pinhead a run for his money... The only way out of their box would be through providing enough bread... 

What is in the picture:
Goose: LORE - Heckhonker (Available until November 8th at Camp Syndicate)
