My Cassadaga and Ocala trip

Thursday, April 30, 2009. I got up early yesterday and drove to Ocala and Cassadaga with the May Horizons Magazine.  I love doing that drive.  Plus I love getting to shop at the Mother Earth Market in Ocala.  Since our Wild Oats in Melbourne closed, I miss the wide variety of vegetarian and natural foods.  [...]

Cardinal nest update; what story do you tell about your life?

Wednesday April 29, 2009.  I goofed.  I made this post before I left for Ocala this morning and thought I published it and find I did not.  Sorry about that, here it is. Well, no Facebook posts for you today. Yesterday I took it easy and stayed in my bedroom for most of the morning.  [...]

Animal Spirit Guidance website is coming along

This is a new website I’m in the middle of creating.  These are our temporary pages Animal Spirit Guidance while I get all the info together.
I know anytime I go online, there are so many pages to have to go through, that contain unrelated stuff, so I wanted to put it all on one page [...]

The best things that ever happened were not anticipated; When friends die; Seeing through the illusion; Reframing the past

Tuesday, April 28, 2009. Today is the 33rd anniversary of my brother Bobby’s passing. He was 22 in 1976 when he committed suicide.  I know - tragic - but it was a long, long time ago and I view those things differently now.  At the time, he was hanging with a sketchy crowd and twice [...]

A reminder from the Universe

Monday April 27, 2009. I had a gentle reminder from the Universe yesterday.  I’m pretty strict about what I eat since I changed several years ago to a very low fat diet.  I don’t really miss certain foods anymore, but I miss the idea of certain foods.  So Sunday I had a sandwich for lunch.  [...]

Unsolicited advice; who is my target audience? It’s a meaningful life, it just takes practice

Yesterday afternoon I went to my favorite Vietnamese pho restaurant for lunch. The owner complained nonstop to me about how bad the economy is.  He typically does that and we’ve had “the talk” (about how we attract what we focus on) but often he’s busy so he doesn’t have time to talk to me.  He [...]

I saw the gopher tortoise; seeing the broader view; appreciating the seasons

Yesterday afternoon I finally saw the big turtle that has several burrows on my property.  I was doing a lap around the yard to water in the new jasmine cuttings.  The night blooming jasmine will root anywhere I put it, as long as I give it enough water.  I have several dozen cuttings down in [...]

My Friday

Today we got the mailing done for the May Horizons.  So I haven’t had time to write anything.  Except here are my Facebook posts for yesterday and today.
I can’t wait for the sun to come up to go see the cardinal chicks as soon as mama gets off the nest
Mama cardinal has not left the [...]

Yesterday afternoon in the yard

Thursday April 23, 2009.  I wrote this yesterday as I sat out on the yard.  it was such a serene scene that I wanted to share it with you.   I’m sitting herein the shade of the mulberry, next to the loquat tree in the back yard.  The loquats are gone now, the last ones [...]
