The Beltaine Bonfire That Wasn't...

...or, Why The Deities Love it When You Make Plans. :-)

Yeah, we missed the bonfire. We were all set to go---we were going to hit the store to get some sandwiches for our dinner, we had the beach chairs all washed off (they live outside most of the year) and the wee one was dressed in warm layers. Freya was all gassed up and ready to roll and then...

I had lunch at Chain Restaurant. And it really, really, really didn't agree with me. So, yeah, we didn't make it. :-(

A friend of mine laughs (not cruelly, mind) at the plans we make and then don't complete. But if there is a Grand Lesson to all of this (aside from Don't Eat At Chain Restaurant If You Plan on Attending A Beltaine Bonfire) it's this: sometimes, life just happens. And you have to roll with it when it does.

So in the spirit of Rolling With It, I'm planning to attend the pagan get together at our local UU church on Friday. And we'll see what develops from there. :)

Wife, mom of a preemie, follower of the old ways, lover of anything Irish or Celtic, history buff, trivia nut, Star Trek and Ren Faire geek and costuming fiend. Offer me coffee or chocolate and world peace is assured. Or at least I'll try really hard. :) I also believe in deleting spam. So, to the person or persons who keep leaving me comments in Chinese (along with links to what I can clearly tell are Chinese porn sites) stop it. It's bad karma, to say nothing of being really, really rude.
