The light is growing

Even if it's snowing the birds were singing this morning..

Imbolcy Imbolc fer ye as well!!! :D

I made a wise choice about staying at home today after all. I´ve baked a rahkapiirakka which already brings in the smell of early spring, not to mention the colour...and I´ve washed white laundry. If this is not *practical* paganism, then nothing is. :D

This just means we´ll have to meet another time, preferably soonish of course. Would you come winter swimming with me some day, if I asked very kindly?

I stayed at home as well.. ofcourse I was at work but decided to skip the meeting after all. But i got things done here & feel pretty good right now :)

What does winter swimming mean? Avantoon vai?????? Sounds scary and you need to ask VERY kindly and I may think about it.. and it sounds crazy enough but I'm sure I'll freeze to death & get a heart attack or don't dare to swim at all.. but I'll think about it..

We could see anyway? ;)

is winter swimming this one, where hunaja gets out of sauna completly naked and just with woolen socks to dip in the frozen water? *giggles* would love to come with you. sounds funny.

No, it´s the one where I use a swimsuit because it is a public sauna (not that I´d use the swimming suit in the sauna mind you, -but anyways you´re thankful for the tiniest bit of clothing on the long walk from the sauna to the icy waterfront). The rest was correct- it´s a hell of a fun!!!:D

*inserts the kindly-asking mood* Please pretty please??? It is a wonderful feeling and every inch of you feels so alive and buzzing afterwards, and the rush of adrenaline is too high for any heart attacks and you don´t really need to swim, just dip yourself and then run back to the sauna...and it´s so much fun!!! We could ask the rest of the witches as well, or what do you say?:) It´s easier if there are lots of us, can´t chicken out. ;)

But nevertheless we could meet soonish. I have a handful of slams to you- do you take lyrics? I have a few of those too.

Maybe we should try it then... oh dear... And yes, let's ask the others to come along so I won't be as scared.. (You know; we ain't no fluffy bunnies etc. ;))

And maybe we could go for a tea some day? Or to cinema? And slams are most welcomed but I don't do lyrics. :)

Re: Avanto avanto!!! :D

Okay then, no lyrics. :) If you have any slams for me by the way I´d be ever-so-grateful because I have none myself at the moment...*hint hint and all that*

But YES. Avanto, no fluffy-bunnying but strong (screaming bloody murder and axes) witch women bravely confronting the icy water, we wanted to feel our roots didn´t we? This surely drives away all cobwebs in sight, and leaves only the very basic need to survive and get the hell out of there. ;)

Tea and cinema both sound awfully good to me. Wednesday and Thursday are both okay sometime after five, I´ll go dancing on either of the days most probably but I can decide it after I know about this...and weekend is fine, too, especially Sunday...

I haven't got any mail for ages.. I only have some finnish slams but I'm not sure they are any good..

How about meeting on sunday then? It would be a perfect day for tea & a film, wouldn't it? And by the way I've really missed talking with you. We didn't have much chance last time we met because first V. was there and then the others..

Re: Avanto avanto!!! :D

Sunday it will be! How fun. I´ll write that in my calendar NOW so it can´t slip my sieve of a mind. I´ve missed talking with you, too, the witching hours are good in another way but there´s not much place for private discussion there...well you know. :)

Happy, peaceful, orange-coloured Imbolc to you!

Oh, and I so wish I could sing you my Candlemas song. But no... Heck, I'm even considering that I should call you and sing it on the phone :P
