Sunday reflections

I have been remiss in my blogging duties. Though the reasons for my absence - a combination of a lack of home Internet service (I love my iPad, but it makes blogging rather awkward), and the busy-ness of every day life, to name a couple - certainly make me feel better about my sporadic absence.

The fact is, I've been busy as all get out, but not because of moving or work or kid-related duties. No, I've been busy living a life I truly love. Most days I wake up and thank all the gods that I am right here, right now and am so in love with my life. Things are very, very good. Most of the time, I don't want to leave my house, because that would mean leaving the cocoon of this really beautiful life - even temporarily. I am perfectly content...no, more than content, HAPPY... to stay home and chill with The Boyfriend™ and The Trolls. My heart and life are filled with abundance and love, and I am so damn grateful.

So, I may be absent more often than not from this space fow now, but only because I am busy living and making art and doing Yoga. Maybe I'll pop in and do like SouleMama does and post a picture of what's going on and let you all free form the story.

In the mean time, though, I wish you all this kind of love, abundance and gratitude. I wish you all to feel this kind of fullness of the heart.

Namaste

Spring has sprung in Florida, and so has my next attempt at growing my own vegetables and herbs. I've spent the day elbow deep in organic soil, plating all manner of medicinal herbs and edibles. It's been extraordinarily gratifying, in a back to earth, back to basics kind of way.

We've also been making strides toward transforming the back yard into a veritable Eden that we can enjoy throughout the summer (when the dulcet sounds of children playing "Hide & Go Kill" (their invention) doesn't interfere). 

Suffice it to say that I am filled with an immense gratitude that is keeping me feeling full of light and love.

May you all be filled with light and gratitude.

Blessings!

Oh, wow...

It's been damn near a month since I posted last. Time flies when you're busy filling every last minute of it.

Breathe in...breathe out.... Keep breathing.

I am now officially all moved in with The Boyfriend™, and only have a few boxes left to go through. Somehow, and I have no idea how, I have turned into little Betty Homemaker, and loving every second of it. For now I'm loving it. Life is finding an easy rhythm again and I'm easing my way into it and matching my own timing to that of my new life.

As I unbury my art supplies and journals, I'm craving the return to the canvas and looking for inspiration again. I've been away for so long, that I'm going to have to ease back in to that.

All in all, I am very, very lucky. And I am very, very grateful.

I'm going to nestle in to bed, and enjoy the last night of my three day weekend, while finding some peace in thensound of the rain.
