We’re loving the cooler weather in Florida! 72 degree nights mean sitting out at the firepit and camping in my own woods. I love having woods on three sides of me. I can feel completely isolated away from civilization yet the neighborhood is right on the other side of a few lots of oaks and […]
I mowed the lawn and sneaked in a little yard work this morning before it got hot and humid. It’s so satisfying when I haven’t weeded in months to see the tall pile of pulled weeds. It included about a hundred loquat seedlings and miles of wedelia. I’ve let the north entrance to the firepit […]
Last night someone moved my garbage can to the end of the block. Odd to think someone was right outside and I didn’t know it. It’s deja vu all over again! I always set the bins out on the street the night before. My odd hours have me often working overnights and my office overlooks […]
I sat for an hour this morning outside at the fire pit in the clearing in my woods, watching the full moon move across the sky. A super moon looks so huge because it coincides with the time in the moon’s orbit when it’s closest to Earth. We’ve had three this year and September 9 […]
The Magical Healing Shower came to me years ago as I stood exhausted at the end of a very long and challenging day. I stepped into the shower and asked that the water remove the stress of the day. I was immediately transported into very healing session. I do the same during full moon as […]
I wrote earlier in My spiritual lesson from the Brighthouse repairman that being without internet and phone after the lightning flash led me to contemplate what a lost signal meant on my path to personal growth. I’d been feeling a little off signal and like I was ready for a reboot. Now that I’m back […]
I sleep in stages. I’ll go months with erratic sleep and then spend many hours a day for weeks sleeping at odd hours, catching up on my REM. It’s heaven when that happens, but it plays havoc with my social life. My personal life revolves around my sleep/work schedule. Sleep comes first, since when it […]
Up early Easter morning for a walk around the hood in the cool air. We’ve been getting Benny the Cat slowly used to my house and yard and he’s been over here all day. We kept him inside a few hours so he could know how everything smells, then we pushed him out the cat […]
This morning as I was in the yard, I found myself stooping down every few feet to uproot an acorn that had sprouted, or re-route the swedish ivy that had grown across into the walkway. I was surprised at how quickly everything had grown since just last week. It’s the same with my nature trails […]
For some reason, this two year old post –> When do you help others and when do you help yourself is getting lots of views this week. When I hit 40, guidance began flooding out of me and I wrote almost 24/7. When I read now what I wrote 10, 15, 20 years ago, it […]
