I am trying to live the life as a druid, but I think last night my strength and my dedication was tested.

I was reading about the druids and how they were very wise and they appreciated nature all around from the trees, insects, animals, water, land and etc. So I made a resolution to myself that I would no longer squish bugs out of fear. Well at the slumberparty it went well.. Rolly Pollys and Moths were all safe while I was around... I got home and decided I needed to do the dishes...

I needed to let some of the dishes soak so that I could put them in the dishwasher. I lifted up the sink plug and OH MY GOD!! was a big gigantic Spider and I jumped!!!

Water was running and Justin thought we should let him take a water slide ride... No No I told him I have to be strong and take him outside...


I grabbed a Mason Jar and Tried to put it over him, but he was FAST!!!! Finnally I managed to get a Mason Jar over him, but then what?? I needed to carry him outside....

Justin grabbed a piece of paper and slid it under the jar and spider, but that won't hold!!!! If I try to lift it will cause enough little gap for him to get out...

Well Justin grabbed some Foil.. Put it underhim and Wrapped the mason jar up...


We took it outside, but I was still scared, what if he managed to climb out from underneath the mason Jar and is now some where in the foil..

Justin had to release him to the wild..

BUT THEN HE STARTED TO COME NEAR ME!! AHHHHHHH I ran around it and then the little spider climbed up one the empty apts porch wall and that was the end of it...

I was scared... I need to get a book on spiders and bugs ......

: )

and thats where druids come from
In Gaelic druidries hay day- When druids were an instrumental part of soceity they would abduct people, and train th em for twenty years on the lore, poetry, and ways off their people. After those twenty years they could be a druid the lore keepers of their comunity, there knowledge of nature was requiste for existing in those times. So, no you can't be a druid. The druids today are a lot like wiccans or goths who carve out an insubstansial sliver of someone elses old ways so they can feel better about themselves. There are many publishing industries that capatilize off that market... But thats not important! the real question is, now that you know what it takes to be a druid do you really want to be one... because I will totally support your descion to become one, right up untill the scary old men come for you in the night. At wich point I will chime in with a weak, " I don't think this is a good idea."
