“Everything in your life is there as a vehicle for your transformation. Use it.” Ram Dass –> So this means everyone who rubs you the wrong way. This means the bad news you continue to watch on tv. Everything. It’s ALL grist for the mill. Let it grind away your judgments, your angers, your fears about the future. Let it transform your life into one of golden appreciation every moment forever, no matter the circumstances.

A sunset dip in the pool, water was 81 degrees. I have two skinny pool noodles that I love using new ways!  Today I twisted them into pretzels and stuck my arms through and I swam up and down the pool with them. They keep me high enough to keep my hair out of the water. “Where’d you learn to swim? From a dog?” Very funny. No, I just never got the hang of swimming and don’t put my face under. But I can float like a mofo!

If you are doing what is yours to do, everything flows, it is easy and fun. If it is not easy or fun or flowing, that just means you are not a vibrational match to it right now. That means get happy and try it again.

The man just blew my cover! A new guy asked him if he and I were partners and he admitted we’re besties but not mates. What a brat! Don’t be telling my secrets now 🙂

I just discovered Granite Flats on Netflix. Three youngsters on the trail of a mystery! I didn’t raise kids and don’t usually care for movies about kids and families but in this one, the kids are smart, curious, purposed and engaging.  I’m digging it since I’m not an action movie, violence, shoot em up, horror, zombie, lovey dovey, tearjerker movie watcher.

Ah, that was just what I needed! A nice relaxing float in the pool at sundown. I went first into the 79 degrees pool and it was a little cool since it was windy. The 84 degrees pool was just right.

One thing I love about fresh spinach is you can take huge giant handfuls and stuff it into your biggest saute pan and it cooks down to one serving.

It’s happening again, calls piling up to return. If we’re supposed to speak by phone, if we can do it by text or Facebook message or email, it will happen lots quicker. Thanks for understanding. I need to to learn discipline to not schedule myself so tightly. I’ve done this for years. 11:45 means 11:45. Now I have a couple of friends waiting for calls back but I need this call first. Wah! first world problems! If only I could successfully return calls between 2-5am I’d be set.

I haven’t been tummy sick for three years. I generally eat healthy with very few processed foods, nothing packaged, nothing fried, no four legged animals. When I eat something too heavy or fatty, my system lets me know. It rejects it mid process, saying “Enough, no more.” It’s not like it happened overnight. It’s not like I had no warning. The last 12 months I’d begun eating bread again, rediscovering sandwiches and eating them almost every day. That in itself is heavy for me. I began drinking coffee and Teechino almost daily, with milk. That’s good for 15 extra pounds a year later. I’d also begun enjoying tasty fried catfish. I’d gone seven years of absolutely no fried anything to eating it once or twice a month without guilt. Yesterday was one of those days.   Continue reading →
