Well its been a while :)

Lol.

I've been busy.  Got into the flow at work, like all of the sudden went from computer illiterate to access queen.  Enjoyed fall in my town, A LOT!  And on colder or rainier days I've been writing like mad.

So I felt things shift around Halloween.  Slowed down on the access stuff as the project wraps up.  Started cocooning in my house more and writing steadily but slower.

Then I come to find out that where I moved to at the beginning of this year (when my journaling and writing really started to move) that I am SMACK in between two pretty decent local authors, who both blog and have linked to a blog I started.  They live on the same street as me but at either ends with me in the middle.

And now I am wondering.... where has all this authorial energy been coming from?  Should I ask them if they are feeling drained?  LOLOL.

I had to post this here, now, before I forget because I can't wait to see where it goes.

Its also very much illustrated for me how interconnected energies are and how and what affects the web.  Frankly its given me shivers and I'm loving it but don't have time to stop and write about it now.  I'm journalling blobs about it in a seperate "energy" notebook so I don't have to even bother with complete thoughts as of yet, just impressions.  And the more I do that the more I catch bits and pieces of other people saying "isn't it weird how this worked out for this guy looking for a job and my company" or "isn't it weird how that house she's always admired went up for sale just as she thought she was going to have to rent after selling her house"......

I literally feel like I'm going to explode (yes, explode not implode like I usually feel) for a change it feels like the energy is bursting out instead of the world pushing in.  I shiver near constantly.  I've got perpetual goosebumps.  And its not entirely comfortable but I'm lovin it.

So, now I'm semi-caught up in a brief fashion I hope to post more details when I get a computer up and running at home.

Miss you all.

Am I the only one who has noticed or cares that zaadz is the coolest word to type - all the letters right there, almost all pinky.....

wow.

I'm thinking I need some alcohol.

 :)

But really.  I went to type the word in an email and it hit me.  See what can happen when you type something out instead of just click the same ol favorite or cut and paste :)

What WILL Matter?

From a pod I often read but rarely get to participate in but is dear to my heart.

Funny, this piece has been dear to my heart since first seeing it, I think in 2003, right after my son turned one and my life seemed to fall apart and I was happy about every bit of it :)

Now its become the reason for the season for me from right about now til New Years.  Funny I should see it posted today.  I think as my life naturally slows down and I start having more quiet time at home to reflect this really takes on a lot of meaning for me.

Of course it also fits with my anti-consumerism holiday rants and such too ;)

Last couple NY my only resolution is to live this more truly the whole year.  So since I saw this this year I dug out the downloadable poster version and a friend has some extra picture paper and I'm going to get one for work and for home.  I think it'll go right over my bathroom mirror with "There is nothing that will happen today that You and I together can't handle" print.

Pop over and say thanks to the Wise Wolf for posting!

The Simple Life

Posted on Nov 17th, 2006 by jdp : Being jdp
A friend emailed me a power point called "The Simple Life".  Its really nice.  Reminds me of Joy Bringer :)

I don't know if there is a way to share a power point on zaadz so I'm offering to forward in emails instead.

If you want it I can forward it from my gmail.  Just send me a message at my old junk collecting gmail.  Remove the spaces but use jds army wife @ gmail . com

If you like animals its a hoot!

Simple holiday joy

Simplicity, "greenness", joy and my son seem to be dominating themes in my life at the moment.  Thought I'd share what I posted over in the Parenting Instruction Manual pod (trying to keep things alive while Wizetree gets busy.... oh ok, IS busy ;).

Myabe you'd care to post some of your simple holiday joys in response here, with kids or without, I know I love hearing about how people put the consumerism fanaticism on hold and enJoy, ESPECIALLY when its a big switch for them!

If you look at the last page of that community calendar pdf you will see my dinky little town isn't as backwards as they seem and I'm not as alone as I thought!

:)


Happy dancin!  Can't wait to check things out Saturday.  Also wondering how to post on zEvents.  I am wishing I had zaadz biz cards sort of things to take to this and pass out.

Hmmm.  Might be something to get on before saturday.
