My beauties, this is my end of year post so I'm going to have a bit of a waffle and update you all (mostly why I've been extremely inactive this year 😬) on what this year has held for me...here goes!
As some of you know I've heavily gotten into my Viking reenactment, I quickly realised that I was completely unaware of how much this would steal my heart. Going back to my roots has not only expanded my knowledge and inner peace but my heart also.
I have been encompassed and swept into a family of people that I will swear on my soul I've known for thousands of lifetimes before, my tribe. Finally.
My family have been given a house in our viking village to maintain and live in, I had been promoted to second to our Völva, which is a dream beyond my wildest dreams of course!
Of course along with the euphoric highs, come the crushing lows. My family have suffered not one, but three losses of our hairy, feathery and scaly babies. Diesel, my beautiful boy was finally put to sleep at the age of almost 17! Ragnar my gorgeous wiggle bum we lost so suddenly. Then my danger noodle Vincent, left me to join his brothers in wait at the Bifrost. 🥺
To say I was devastated is an understatement.
The fates then gave me whiplash with the most spontaneous and beautiful opportunity to finally marry my best friend. My partner for 14 years, who's stood by my side in pride and held me at my crushing lows. Thank you, my love.
Ending the year on a low because, well why not huh?
I've lost my Dad, at the age of 54 and has left us all empty and devoid of optimism for the rest of the year.
However, I do hope whomever has made it this far and even those who don't; enjoy your moments with your loved ones.
A wise woman once told me:
"For every day of sunshine there is a day of rain.
To have happiness you must endure sadness.
No one can know someone else's path or change it.
Whilst I know your heart is breaking right now for many reasons, just try to remember all the things you have that will help it repair.
Don't be afraid to cry as you need to do this in order to laugh"
Godjul, Merry Christmas and happy holidays. I love you all 💜
