Cervical biopsies are NOT fun [19:54] u,mmmm....I can imagine not! [19:54] i mean just the normal exam is no fun...so yea [19:55] Ya, I pretty much screamed bloody murder [19:55] :( [19:55] Had to get my parents to come and drive me and my car home [19:55] i am so sorry [19:57] I felt really bad for taking the day off.. But with the codeine I couldn't drive [19:57] Oh and I won the RD election for Canada East.. [19:58] Quite a surprise [19:58] congrats on that!

[20:02] Lol wa? [20:03] I waited a bit, and one came to me as volunteer [20:03] no, nothing has really happened yet Bonnie [20:03] ah okay. [20:03] though I think it's a great idea to start with a prayer [20:03] absolutely. [20:03] especially considering all the things happening right now [20:03] Well, Lisa went 3 years without a deputy before I volunteered [20:03] Bonnie, do you have a prayer for us? [20:04] sure! [20:04] I could. You're a Priest :] if you would like to say one, go for it. But I can also if you want. [20:05] lol Well I'm sure both of us saying prayers would be good ;) [20:05] Prayer to Brigit? :) [20:05] ad-lib the other's brayer. [20:05] we could each say a prayer, you know. [20:05] that would be cool. : [20:06] *** TrentDirenna (Mibbit@37bcff35.dhcp.trlk.ca.4e125616.com.hmsk) has joined #adf [20:07] hi everyone [20:07] Hi Trent.

And a little bit of healing for those who need it. [20:07] Hi trent [20:08] Blessed Kindreds, we call to you! We ask that you bring to world solace in this time of turmoil. That you bring comfort and healing to those in desperate need. Blessed Kindreds, we call to you and ask for this blessing! [20:08] that's the best prayer I ca think of. [20:08] Aide us in helping to heal the bonds that have been broken, to bring together those who are apart, to bring more love and compassion in the world. So be it! [20:08] So bet it! [20:08] So be it [20:09] So be it [20:09] I forgot to tell you I'm no good at prayers. [20:09] *** TrentDirenna (Mibbit@37bcff35.dhcp.trlk.ca.4e125616.com.hmsk) has joined #adf [20:09] all prayers are good if they are felt from the heart [20:09] I call upon the Gatekeepers - mothers, brothers, sons; guardians on every side; you who know the ways between - keep vigil over this night as we watch events unfold around us. Grant lanterns of thought to those who have gone beyond; guide those searching in their Way. Hold fast cities and their people. Watch over us. [20:09] hi everyone, again...my irc got weird for a bit [20:10] I'm not very poetic [20:10] be it so [20:10] Erin yours was very nice <3 [20:10] this Brighidine approves. [20:10] :) thanks! [20:10] It is perfect [20:10] and Bonnie, so be it [20:11] I ordered the kindred pendant from magical Druid today. [20:11] I want a ton of their gods, it is good stuff [20:11] goods [20:11] :D [20:11] I'm going to hang it from my review mirror [20:11] Michael does some really great work. [20:12] I saw someone post it on the group. [20:12] yes, he does [20:12] Awesome idea. [20:12] I have a few of their pieces already, and am going to add to my collection soon [20:12] I'm not much into bumper stickers [20:13] heh [20:13] I think somehow I ordered two. So if two come I'll give the other to the other grovie who drives [20:13] [Owlhawk] They have a ton of stuff [20:13] Ya I got their standard and travel world tree [20:13] I have firefighter crap on my car.....and my girlfriend got me star wars figures to put on the back for yule, though I haven't decided which yet [20:14] I don't mind window decals. [20:15] [Owlhawk] I'm planning on getting their hellenic world tree [20:15] [Owlhawk] \pillar [20:15] Cool owlhawk. [20:15] i've thought of getting bumper stickers...but it's pretty conservative where i live, i worry about "repercussions" [20:15] hmmm...I'm leaning towards slave Leia, Obi-Wan, and an Ewok.....because fun! [20:16] Hehe [20:16] Trent : I understand that!. [20:16] [Owlhawk] everyone should have a slave Leia [20:16] I have the norse yggdrasil upstairs, I bought it for Luke. [20:17] I don't worry myself to much about that, though I live in the deep south. [20:17] That's why I'm opting fir the rear mirror pendant. [20:17] ooh! [20:17] Ooo from magical Druid? [20:17] I am making plans for doing some wall art that includes the sacred center and the first stanza of my Kindreds song [20:17] that way I can have a doorway altar, basically [20:18] Nice! . [20:18] nice! [20:18] I've been planning it for a year or more, but I think I was waiting for my home to come to us first [20:18] I'm waiting to finish some work so I can do a pillar downstairs with the cosmos on it. [20:18] [Owlhawk] If it's a sticker for the rear window I'm much more likely to look at it [20:19] I'd like to suggest that Michael and Seamus do more window decals. [20:19] yea, I like that sort of thing to a point [20:20] I'd get one [20:24] [Owlhawk] I likely wouldn't but that's because I'm not a big fan of bumper stickers. [20:24] [Owlhawk] or other crap on my car. [20:26] ya me neither [20:27] sometimes i wish i had more "pagan stuff" [20:27] [Owlhawk] mostly because I want other drivers to be paying attention to their driving, not reading my bumper sticker just before they hit my car [20:27] I'm already starting to have anxiety cause I haven't gotten my car detailed since the winter ended [20:27] i am insanely disorganized though [20:27] that's a good point, owlhawk [20:27] [Owlhawk] Why Erin? it's not that important [20:28] I'm the same way, Erin. I found a spider crawling around. ekekekekekeeeek. /sigh [20:28] I have Salt stains allover the front drivers side and passenger side fkoor [20:29] salt ruins the carpet. [20:29] my poor car.....it is sad [20:29] lol [20:29] Trent, where are you? [20:29] Course, mine is a new car.. I miss it's clean smell [20:30] [Owlhawk] I remember when you bought it. I've been looking at the Dodge Journey lately [20:31] sara: central coast california [20:31] sept 11th.. Won't forget that date. [20:32] supposedly there was a KKK cross burning around here a few years ago...not in the town I live (San Luis Obispo), but in the same county anyway [20:33] Wow. [20:33] That's just crazy. [20:33] there's a college here so it's a little more "liberal", in an upper middle class white way, heh [20:34] there's also a current lawsuit against a teacher who was teaching creationism [20:34] huh, I would expect that of the area around here but not really CA [20:34] oh, the big cities are hardcore liberal [20:34] especially the bay area [20:34] outside of that...it varies [20:34] I'd Obama libéral?. [20:34] Is? [20:35] [Owlhawk] Erin, by Canadian standards they are all conservatives. The US does not have a Liberal or Socialist party [20:35] lol [20:35] Oh [20:35] [Owlhawk] They have a right wing and a bat fuck crazy Ultra Right Wing nutbar party. [20:36] yeah, politics are just different levels of "right-wing" in this country [20:36] I only know "democrat and republican" [20:36] lol [20:36] [Owlhawk] What amazes me is how none of them actually know what a socialist actually is. [20:36] Obama would have been considered a moderate republican in the 80's, supposedly [20:36] *** lkj (Mibbit@14055a59.6ca5f0a0.104.247.imsk) has joined #adf [20:36] [Owlhawk] yes he would have.

And he understands that Trickle Up economics actually works [20:37] the GOP thinks socialist means "treats minorities and women as people" [20:37] sigh [20:38] [Owlhawk] Yeah.....you keep them down there. We ain't taking any of those nutbars. Our verison is bad enough [20:38] heh [20:38] we'll just migrate ourselves instead [20:39] [Owlhawk] sure. You'll likely find yourself on the conservative side through [20:39] May might get a chance to be on the panel during the election debates now that she has a seat in the house. [20:39] [Owlhawk] Last I heard she's in the debates [20:39] Nice! . [20:39] but yeah, that is what i meant by "sorta progressive-friendly" [20:39] [Owlhawk] One thing I'd like to see, and is starting to be discussed, is a Guaranteed Basic Income nation wide. [20:40] [Owlhawk] And if Sara emigrates there will be definite climate shock! [20:40] i don't think we're a rich enough country to do that yet [20:40] lol yea.....My hubby wouldn't come with [20:41] l [20:41] lol [20:41] I'd go to PEI, because why not right !?! ;) [20:41] well, California is still more or less liberal [20:41] [Owlhawk] Yes we are. You eliminate all the social income programs and their bureaucracy and replace them with the Guaranteed Income [20:41] [Owlhawk] Kayley would move with you Sara. [20:41] lol [20:41] hmmm [20:41] *** LeesaKern (Mibbit@361c28b6.insight.res.14056255.com.hmsk) has joined #adf [20:41] peeps [20:42] hi Leesa [20:42] Leesa!! [20:42] Two Leeisas! That's almost enough for a Grove [20:42] heh, if someone in the US even uttered a whisper about a program like that, they'd probably get assasinated... [20:42] [Owlhawk] That alone would not only pay for it Erin, but would actually save money. Billions of it [20:42] hello [20:42] [Owlhawk] hello Erin [20:42] yes, the lisa-only grove mwahahaha [20:42] Leeeeees.

[20:45] Erin you guys are all the cool people who were already here when I got here :] [20:46] Lol sure Bonnie [20:46] I was early, early usual as [20:47] * BonnieCyr tickles Erin. [20:47] I am actually surprised I am still awake right now ;) [20:47] heh [20:47] Oof! [20:48] [Owlhawk] I'm starting to fade.... [20:48] I went to bed last night at 820...and I was up 4 times at night to go to the washroom. I'm not going to bed early tonight!! [20:48] I went to bed late myself and was having a hard time waking up today [20:50] I had that Dam biopsy this morning so I didn't have to wake up till 730, and of course I was up at 615 [20:50] [Owlhawk] lol. 530 for me [20:50] i usually wake up at about 5:30 [20:50] 5 is my normal....and it's terrible [20:50] I too get up at 5-6 somewhere in there. I try for 5 but i occasionally fail. [20:51] 530 for me. [20:51] [Owlhawk] I'm in the school bus by 730, so an hour for coffee is desparately needed [20:51] ideally i do yoga....but....yeah. [20:51] and no I do not use the staircase method. [20:51] [Owlhawk] lol [20:52] "staircase method"? [20:52] I try to get my yoga on by 515.....sometimes that happens [20:53] I set my alarm for 530 but get out of bed at 545, showered and dressed by 6 [20:53] [Owlhawk] Take your stack of essays to be marked, go to the top of the stairs and toss them down the stairs. Top stairs get top marks, bottom stairs get bottom marks. [20:53] Ahahaha [20:53] [Owlhawk] I do my exercise after my morning bus run [20:54] I try to do my exercise to wake up a bit, and then go about my day, with about a half hour in the morning reserved for meditation and devotional work [20:55] [Owlhawk] I'd need to get up at 4 or so to have the time for exercise and more then brief morning prayers. [20:55] :) cool [20:55] [Owlhawk] but I have free time from about 9 till about 230. [20:56] i wish i had more time in the morning for exercise and stuff...i have serious time mismanagement issues, lol [20:56] once I go to work my day is consumed [20:57] [Owlhawk] That's one reason i didn't go back to driving cab. [20:58] [Owlhawk] That and I make as much now in one third of the hours [20:58] Owlhawk, could you msg me on fb please? [21:01] Pretty plz.

[21:07] So, what are everyone's Bealtaine plans? [21:08] Protogrove's ritual on Saturday [21:09] these are all electronic...i don't fancy tossing my laptop down the stairs :) [21:09] [Owlhawk] lol [21:09] I am doing readings at Universal Light Expo on Saturday and our Grove Beltaine is SUnday [21:10] but so is graduation and I have to go to that....so i'll be showing up late :) [21:10] Who are your Beings of the Occasion? What customs do you celebrate? [21:10] um....to be honest I don't know :) [21:10] i get to just show up :) [21:11] We did our ritual this past Sunday, with Freya and Freyr as DoO [21:11] We had our 16th anniversary ritual for Beltaine last Sunday. But we're having another ritual this Saturday in kemptville with a maypole and bonfire! [21:11] Ours were oghma and epona [21:12] [Owlhawk] I was going to Raven's knoll for it, but that's been cancelled. So it'll be something at home [21:12] Erin, are you honouring the same deities at this Saturday's rite? [21:12] I don't think so. It's Renee who's putting it on.. [21:12] Sara, I listened to part of your sung rite this morning :) [21:13] I'm going to have our standard liturgy on hand just in case [21:13] Ours is this Sunday, and we tell the story of the coming of the Tuatha De Danann to Ireland. We also move from the inside to the outside, and this is the time when we relight our hearthfire. [21:14] oh wait, I think it's Freyja [21:19] LisaWM, hope you enjoyed it a bit :) [21:20] I had to run off to work, so I'm going to listen to the whole thing tomorrow [21:21] ah ok! it's not too long, about 27 mins [21:40] Time for me to log out - see y'all next week .!
