Dusting off the cobwebs

izmeinaLess than 12 hours left of this year in Izzieland. It's still a pickly 40 celsius outside which is most annoying. Only good thing that it is a dry sizzling sort of heat rather than the disgusting steamy sultry humidity of recent days.
Been taking advantage of the particular energy of this time of year to do some ritual decluttering. Tossed ten things about ten times. A very simple but effective trick as it sneaks around the sabotage of the inner beasts bent in keeping things stuck in a rut and miserable and can be done even when the mercury is on the north side of 40
The funniest of all was the recent letter from a friend with a wonderful visual image for dealing with the toad dramas (This letter did not get tossed but added to the stash of treasures)
Just imagine the old toad to be one giant turd to be flushed down the toilet into oblivion. Izzie could so relate to that and figured must try it before the year is over and then duly forgot about this excellent mind hack
That was until this morning's encounter with the turd that just would not flush.
After the second unsuccessful attempt conducted an unofficial naming ceremony and pulled the chain once again
Persistent big bugger she was like most cane turds usually are. But the serpent was even more persistent. Five attempts it took but got her in the end. One flush for each of her horrid Howlers we guess
But that sure is the most fun banishing ritual ever. Must do it more often
Actually now the Izzie thinks of it there is something similar in the brilliant "Hands on Chaos Magic" book
Really must dust that one off.
So now it's time to scrub the scales again, slink off into the sunset and toast to the end of 2012 and the beginning of a bright shiny new year full of potential
Here's wishing a wonderful new year to everyone out there.
PS Here's hoping this entry will be the last one for a long time with that box ticking b@#$ as an icon
