Thankfulness

Siobahn asked: What are you thankful for? What makes you happy?

There's so much!!! I'm thankful for life, for health, for the joy I'm able to find in the mess of the world, for my family, for safety, for jobs, for friends, for food! The things that make me happy are laughter, nature, wonder, beauty, adventure, and community. Oh, and food. I'm looking forward to the feast next week.

Shuntbumping finals

Wow, today was filled with action in the Shuntbumping Arena! It was the final round for crocheters and semi-finals for knitters. Of course Hermione took the trophy--I never doubted her skills for a second. More interesting are the finalists for knitting. Rowena is a powerful witch and she's quicker than lightening! Antonio ended up winning his match and will face off with Rowena now. Even though Rowena's been the quickest to shuntbump someone in every round, Antonio's a master knitter, so I think it will be an interesting final round next weekend!
