Bandages, Altars, Newness
I didn’t really relax as much as I had planned. I dug out the post-hole digger and decided to do partial termite treatment to my house since I had the supplies. I’ll have to do the other half next weekend. It was nice being able to play in the dirt with bare hands and feet though.
I put up an updated temporary layout on my MUD website where I’ve been having some of the worm infestation problems. It’s a little more cleaner, but I still have a lot of work to do to it and the site in general.
I have to clean and put fresh bandages on my fathers leg again for a while. The ulcers are smaller but still rather grotesque and persistent. I’ll spare all the details. It seems we’ve reached a plateau with his leg healing. I’d like for them to be healed completely by summer so he can live a bit more normal and we can focus our attention more on his diet and exercise.
My cat has been sneaking out the doggie door lately. She’s an indoor cat, because I don’t really want to have her exposed to FIV or FVRCP or anything like that. But when it’s warm out, we’ll remove the cover of the doggie door for My Son, and she sneaks out. Today she happened to bring a live house sparrow in and play with it on my bed. Luckily I was able to catch the damned thing and let it go. Though I don’t know how much damage she might have done, it did fly a little crooked.
I did some meditating tonight, I felt an urge for it, and decided to dress up my altar a bit for spring. Mostly greens and ambers, with stones such as malachite, herkimer diamond, crystal quartz, turquoise to represent my native heritige, a piece of hawkseye my sister gave me, a motherstone that an old Kali priestess gave me years ago, jade, emerald calcite, rose quartz in honor of the new love in my life, and a malachite/chrysocolla mixture.
