This and That

Hey now, it's March 1st~this year is well on it's way now. Spring is coming on fast. yee ha.... It's time for me to get my seedlings started, this year I am not going to let them die as I did last year. It is certainly high on my list of favorite things, flowers that is, but remembering to start them on time then get them where they need to be in a good state of health is hard for me. I like so many that I must start with seeds to afford them all. But, if you just are doing a few, I would recomend these and why:
moonflower vine a wonderful night blooming big-as-your-hand white flower, keeps blooming all summer long
red-trumpet vine grows well and brings the hummingbirds! gotta have 2 or 3
sunflowers mammoth to start and then a good variety pack, they just make me smile
orange poppys again they make me smile, then any flower that you can cut and bring inside, like verbena, daisies, and every herb you can think of. I guess that's it, now I'm going to put on my new make up, watch a new film and...knit on a new top for spring~it's raining here in the east,for a second nasty day. Peace Out

My Car !

Well, after months of not having a working vehicle, I am grateful to say that I am finally "with wheels" again. My car may be old (1994), but it's is fun (nissan 240sx black on black) And I know that there will be days that will be warm enough to ride with the top down ! I've always been one to appreciate a convertible. I'm very grateful to my son, Justin, for without his help, this would not be so. So~A BIG THANK YOU TO JUSTIN-YOU ARE AWESOME ! ! ! Well, there's beadin'n to be done so I guess I'll have at it. Peace Out

A New Day

OK, it's a new day. I didn't get the chance to post yesterday. I was busy working~I foiled hair yesterday and that is one of my favorite tthings about being a Cheveux Artiste. This amazing woman/friend/customer also ordered a piece of handcrafted jewelry, which is another job I do. I am also a Seamstress. I am so lucky because I do these things part-time and I love doing them Most of the time it's like playing~until I get in a bit over my head, like right now. I told myself I was not going to take any more orders and I keep taking them. So I guess I shouldn't be blogging, I should be working. Oh well, I'll get to it. Yesterday my oldest son, Justin, flew here (RDU International in NC) He lives in NYC and I love that. I always have a good reason to go there.....visit, shop, museums and art galleries. Much Fun! I'm so glad that Justin will be here for 10 days! My youngest son Brian, came home from Boone, NC, Keron is already here so I have my whole family under my roof. We'll be celebrating Native American Day all week long. I'm so grateful that we now have this new Holiday.

Every day is different

It's so discouraging to me how I can allow other people rent-free space in my head. I'm 48 years old, yet I have not yet learned that very simple lesson. We do not have to allow anyone to play any part in how we feel about ourselves and our degree of happiness. We are allowed to choose happiness over misery(and the door slams LOUDLY, again, at least twenty years of it now) Why haven't I taken that door down yet? Maybe today will be that day-Probably Not...My fear? Rejection. Fear of rejection. Well the rejection already happened before the door slammed. The bottom line is this~I just haven't learned this lesson yet. And for now I will just allow the tears to slide down my face and wish that the other person would get a f***ing clue and walk their talk.

Universal Law

Today I am thinking about Universal Law. The Law of Attraction, The Law of Abundance. What is important to me, right this moment, is vizualizing the Law of Abundance happening in Somalia. The children there, vizualizing food going into their mouths, being chewed, going into their tiny little bodies, Nutrition happening for all of the starving Humans in the Universe. I need to believe that this can happen.....and I absolutely believe.

where have i been ?

In the past months I've been all over the place....but not here...not posting...or sharing. I've been isolating myself. With so much going on in the world I have a tendency to "check out", to put on my blinders and live in my own reality. But the doors and windows are open again and I can see and feel the light and remember that it is safe to go out into the world again and enjoy the wonder of it all. And I can be grateful, happy just to be. So here I am, I'm me again. Happy, Joyful, Free ! and the sun is shining . . .

Celebrate !

Good Morning Everyone. Happy Beltane to everyone. We are halfway in to Spring and halfway to Summer. I will be celebrating through the weekend by building bonfires at night, Jumping over them with my man, planting more things, sharing food with friends and anything else that comes up. I'll be posting to let you know what kind of things are going on here at our majik cottage in the woods, where all things are possible.....Gail
