I Remember As A Kid, My Oldest Sister Left This Book At Our House After She Moved In With Her Dad, I

I remember as a kid, my oldest sister left this book at our house after she moved in with her dad, I cant remember what the book was called, but it was made of this hard wood or fake wood? Idk, but at the end of the book there was this little hollow spot for storing stuff.

My mum is a self proclaimed Wiccan, she's more like a hippie in the way that she's appropriated parts of Hinduism and Buddhism without knowing anything about those parts. Anyway, the book was about fairies and summoning them, and i loved fairies' and mythology as a child, in fact, I can still remember the exact chant the book said would summon fairies. You had to be near a body of water or a large tree, sitting in a circle of rose petals, and you'd chant it three times:

"all faer folk surrounding me, warmth and love I offer thee, honour me by coming near, beautiful light please appear"

I remember the first time I did it, a few minutes later a dragonfly flew into our house, despite all the doors being closed. I still love mythology to this day, but at least now I don't get all my Greek mythos from the Percy Jackson books lol.

the new American Gothic. // artist unknown, feel free to tag and tell me who painted this.

I bought an XP pen artist 12 for like. 117 Aus dollars on eBay, including shipping AND a 30 day warranty, and I've had this baby since December. And the charger port is now royally fucked. and I don't know where the fuck id even buy a new charger port, because if my dad cannot fix it then I'm absolutely FUCKED.

because I cannot buy a brand new one because I'm saving all the money I have for top surgery because it'll cost like 12k, at most, and idk if my insurance will cover anaesthesia or the hospital stay, and I bought this tablet so that I could do some commissions and make enough money to buy a brand new one if I liked using it enough, and I don't have a job either bc I'm a highchool student with enough problems attending school as it is without adding a job to the mix.

but if I want to make money for commissions, then I need a new tablet, but if I need a new tablet then I need money, and if I want to do coms then I need a tablet, but to get a new tablet then I need money, and to get mone-

see?? its become a cycle!! I said about it to my dad last night and he understood completely, but I've forgotten how I worded it so it might not make sense now but whatever.

like where the fuck do I even get a replacement charger port anyway?? who the fuck do I ask or call or email about that???
