Yesterday turned out to be an unexpected fun day of rest and relaxation for me. At church Sunday at The New Way POD, my friend Jane Warner told me it was going to rain, so I decided to stay inside all day. I woke up with an idea to cook a giant stew for a […]
Last night’s full moon was dubbed a Supermoon, thanks to a fluke of orbital mechanics that brought the moon closer to Earth than that it has been in more than 18 years. It really did look bigger. I was just completing final layout on the April Horizons Magazine and really wanted to get down to […]
The last two early mornings I’ve gone out to the firepit just before dawn and built a small fire in the chimenea, watching it burn down while I ponder the changing of the seasons. I love to wander around in the yard, quietly collecting small twigs for kindling for the next fire and it was […]
Last night I had a very vivid dream, which I attribute to having begun taking ferrous sulfate the day before, and also eating two lean sirloin patties, the first beef in five years. I’d also seen Anthony Bourdain on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon the night before. Here’s the dream. I find myself away from […]
Late yesterday afternoon it got cool enough for me to open all the windows and doors in the house. Doors? Yes, I have screen doors and also burglar bars, being from Miami, so I never wonder if someone is going to wander in uninvited. Not human anyway. The raccoons and opossums are another story. They […]
In 2004, I changed to a low fat diet and now I look for new ways to introduce old favorite foods back into the menu. I always loved pasta, and used to eat it with butter, lots of butter. About 60 pounds of butter apparently. For several years I didn’t eat it at all, I […]
I have a male friend whose looks are a cross between James Woods and Tommy Lee Jones. Rugged, weathered. He intensely dislikes being called adorable or cute. To him, those words are reserved for something that looks very young or beautiful. To me, those words also describe personality characteristics and behaviors. So when he acts […]
My sleep schedule is changing again and that’s always interesting. My habit for years was to be up at 4:00am for morning meditation and then go back to bed from about 6:00-9:00am, then go into the office. The past month I’ve been unable to go back to sleep, and then I crash about 6:00-7:00pm until […]
I like to hang on to land that I own. I learned that from my family. But I’ve also learned to stay as debt free as I can be. I have these properties for sale so I can eliminate a debt that comes due shortly. I would love for them to go to someone I […]
I’ve experienced a lot of death in my life, many family and husbands and friends passing, and I talk to many people as they are helping loved ones journey through their own process. As our Mission Statement reads, I promote the reality that we survive in consciousness after the change called death. To comprehend this, […]
