[20:08] <Drum> Howdy!
[20:08] <Rovena> Hello Drum
[20:08] <Rovena> How are you tonight?
[20:08] <Drum> I am a-ok
[20:08] <Drum> You?
[20:08] <Rovena> Surviving triple digit heat index
[20:09] <Drum> Oh!
[20:09] <Drum> It has been cool here thankfully
[20:09] <Rovena> The squirrels have taken to throwing peanuts hsells at our dog whenever the birdfeeder is low on food
[20:09] <Drum> Lol
[20:10] <Rovena> THey say we may have the hottest summer on record this year
[20:10] <Drum> Wow, it is early in the summer as well
[20:11] <Rovena> Very true. A course global warming is a myth.
[20:11] <Drum> How was your Solstice?
[20:12] <Drum> Right
[20:12] <Rovena> It was good. Since we have new people, we are writing the Aug 1 ritual as a group project
[20:12] <Drum> Excellent!
[20:13] <Rovena> Thought it was the most interesting way to teach COoR
[20:14] <Drum> Exactly
[20:14] <Drum> :)
[20:15] <Rovena> It is going to be Germanic. THe two heathens can't agree on a gatekeeper so they are reseaching it for Saturday's class.
[20:20] <Drum> Who are the choices?
[20:21] <Drum> For gatekeeper?
[20:22] <Rovena> They really didn't get it narrowed down. They found problems with every one that was suggested. I will come up with two choices by Saturday.
[20:23] <Drum> I know
[20:23] <Drum> Heimdahl and ?
[20:24] <Rovena> Heimdahl is the obvious one to me but I will find someone for a second so they have an option.
[20:25] <Rovena> Hopefully, a week of research will help them decide something.
[20:25] <Drum> I heard one the other day but I can’t recall
[20:26] <Rovena> At least they are interested in doing the work.
[20:27] <Drum> Exactly :)
[20:27] <Drum> Togetherness :)
[20:33] <Rovena> Just so long as there is no hair pulling or biting.
[20:33] <Rovena> Not that there has ever been any.
[20:34] <Drum> Right ;)
[20:35] <Drum> Well, I need to charge my phone. I’ll be back!
[20:36] <Rovena> See you then

[21:09] <Rovena> Very
[21:10] <Rovena> Been doing Germanic research while sitting here
[21:10] [Owlhawk] that'll keep you busy
[21:11] <Rovena> Yes.
[21:11] <Rovena> Especially since I am Celtic.
[21:11] [Owlhawk] lol;
[21:12] <Rovena> The joy of a grove without a specific hearth culture of its own
[21:13] [Owlhawk] true
[21:14] <Rovena> Drum is charging his phone so he may be back later.
[21:14] [Owlhawk] saw that
[21:14] <Rovena> How are things up North?
[21:14] <Rovena> BOt to be cooler than here
[21:14] <Rovena> BOT = Got
[21:15] [Owlhawk] we have a heat warnignof r the weekend
[21:16] <Rovena> No fun!
[21:16] [Owlhawk] nope
[21:25] *** Fulbert-Avebury (Mibbit@sorcery-411l6g.fios.verizon.net) has joined #adf
[21:25] <Fulbert-Avebury> Hi there fine ADF folk!!
[21:26] [Owlhawk] ello
[21:26] <Rovena> Hello again!
[21:26] <Rovena> How are you tonight?
[21:26] <Fulbert-Avebury> What a week; glad I could at least pop in to say hello!!
[21:26] <Fulbert-Avebury> Will be away the next two weeks, so glad at least a brief hello!!
[21:26] <Fulbert-Avebury> How is everybody?
[21:27] <Rovena> Hope the resaon is a fun one
[21:27] <Fulbert-Avebury> Yes, vacation.
[21:27] <Rovena> Good!
[21:27] <Fulbert-Avebury> Glad it was planned before my current work announced the upcoming reorg and layoffs.
[21:27] <Fulbert-Avebury> Yuck
[21:28] <Rovena> Boo
[21:28] <Fulbert-Avebury> Exactly. Like nonprofit work is not already tough enough than to have that unpleasant news.
[21:29] <Fulbert-Avebury> Say, a question.
[21:30] <Rovena> Ask it
[21:30] <Fulbert-Avebury> I am trying to find some form of daily prayer or devotion or the like, perhaps with beads, though have not really found something mantra-like or otherwise simple enough to remember and work into a daily routine of ritual. How do you do that, or rather do any of you do that?
[21:31] <Fulbert-Avebury> I found a few Druid bead or such practices, though none of the prayers with them really seem to fit . . . most are too complicated.
[21:31] <Rovena> I plan on making a prayer bead using the nine virtues
[21:31] <Rovena> You could write your own.
[21:32] <Rovena> You would have to decide on a focus for your devotional
[21:32] <Fulbert-Avebury> What do you envision doing with the virutes, have a statement for each one and repeat them?
[21:32] <Rovena> Yes, that is the idea for me.
[21:33] <Fulbert-Avebury> If I want to focus on the virtues, which seems a good idea, I would want to in some way say or mutter something that will help them to sink into me...
[21:33] <Rovena> Your poems don't have to be perfect and they can change over time.
[21:34] <Rovena> What would help you wouldn't necessarily be what someone else would find useful
[21:35] <Fulbert-Avebury> Ahh. I came across this earlier today https://www.adf.org/members/training/dp/articles/bead-devotional.html and liked how it was simple for the virtues.
[21:36] <Rovena> It is a good place to start and tweak it as you go along til it speaks to you.
[21:37] <Fulbert-Avebury> Thanks Rovena. Quite helpful.
[21:38] <Rovena> Glad to help.
[21:38] <Fulbert-Avebury> What led you to plan to make prayer beads, Rovena?

[21:39] <Rovena> I grew up in an Italian neighborhood. When babysitting, I helped the kids do their rosary. It always seem a natural thing to do.
[21:40] <Fulbert-Avebury> ahh. got it.
[21:41] <Fulbert-Avebury> I liked the sense of peace the rosary used to bring me, though I did not at the time aporeciate the repetition.
[21:41] <Rovena> It was faith made tangible
[21:41] <Fulbert-Avebury> I liked the feel of them in my hands; only in later years have I appreciated how tactile I really am.
[21:42] <Rovena> Understand that. Often our tastes change over the years.
[21:42] <Fulbert-Avebury> Very true.
[21:43] <Fulbert-Avebury> Hey, for me ADF always seemed so . . . not me. Not sure how that changed, either, though change it has.
[21:43] <Fulbert-Avebury> hehehe
[21:44] <Rovena> Maybe both (you and ADF) have changed over the years growing closer together
[21:44] <Fulbert-Avebury> SImilarly, I have found the ADF Facebook groups helpful as well. That was also a surprise to me!!
[21:44] <Fulbert-Avebury> Touche!!
[21:46] <Fulbert-Avebury> Well, Rovena, I am about to head out and ready for sleep. I shall wish you a nice evening and hope to see you again here very soon.
[21:47] <Fulbert-Avebury> Many thanks again, and a safe walking along your path.
[21:47] <Rovena> Sleep well. Til next time we meet
[21:47] <Fulbert-Avebury> Nite.
