Laundry Switching from summer clothes to sweaters and cool weather clothes. Why? Just dragging out summer as long as I can. This little town is a summery place even with it’s New England vibe. No one is excited about putting their boat away for the season. I want another ride in mine. Hopefully tomorrow…

What if there was only one question? Do I want to be happy? That’s where I’m at in the book (“the untethered soul”) right now. What if I choose to live by this choice no matter what? No matter what happens. No matter how my day plays out? No matter who or what I encounter.Continue reading “Relax, and choose happy ?”

What would I try if I was certain that I would succeed at it? I changed the words of the prompt. I’d be open to try a lot of things. Success aside, I think I kind of am anyway. What if we took success out of the equation. What about just trying to try ?Continue reading “What if I was Successful?”

On this day, so many years ago, a man walked onto the elementary school campus where I was teaching. It was lunchtime for first, second and third grade. I had a break between classes and was checking out some temporary partition walls for an outdoor art show the following day. I was alone in theContinue reading “October 8, 2010”

Yesterday was a perfect weather day. Warm, not too warm, Sunny, a little breezy, not windy. Blue sky. Picture a perfectly beautiful, Halmark movie set day. Today right on cue, is gray and raining. Lightning, followed directly by thunder. It’s honestly looking like movie set rain pelting the road and windows. Things like taking outContinue reading “Gray. Fog. Rain”

Some days, man. Can that many things go awry in less than a single hour? I probably needed coffee. Was this a test? Oh I know I’m being dramatic. I’m reading a book about inner energy and maybe cosmicly cued. Knock knock? Who’s there? Just little things. Nothing major. I read this: If you wantContinue reading “Waking up”

I think I’ve changed my mind about a lot of things over the years. As I gain more knowledge and experience, my mind sees things from a different perspective, so I change, then my mind does. Change, something that’s in the air lately, (with Autumn, a new moon, the equinox and all), has not alwaysContinue reading “What have I changed my mind about?”

Oh I’m out of place alright. But I’m getting used to it. It’s funny, all the years I moved around as a kid, I always got used to my new surroundings. Looking back, most of where I ended up, I was out of place, still, I went to school, did chores, made friends and existedContinue reading “Out of Place”

(Nod to Glidna Radner, and the whole SNL bunch) Every morning, every night. It IS always something. We haven’t yet put the motor back on the boat. We’re close to it, but then- a sink hole was discovered. I can’t make this stuff up. Not only can I not predict anything, but how or whatContinue reading “Holes. Trees. Alice…It’s Always Something”

Yesterday was a good day. I went to yoga after coffee, came home, meditated, then painted most of the day away. I talked to my good friend about all things art and gallery. Later, G and I took a spin around the cove in my boat so I could check out the leaves. Bright redsContinue reading “A Good New England Day”
