Look at this loveliness! Coffee and beignets in New Orleans! With a little jazz on the side. Sometimes, life is just good!

FFF – 10-5
Good grief, the weeks fly by. One minute it's last Friday, and the next thing I know, I wake up and it's this Friday. AND i'm not doing so well this week in terms of food and nutrition. Too many carbs. My glucose levels are not always as low as I want. Last night, I … Continue reading FFF – 10-5
Mother Ocean
i almost didn't go to the ocean today. It looked like rain. I was tired. I had a lot to do. Thank goodness, i went anyhow. I got to see the many faces of the sky, the amazing variety of cloud formations. And the ocean today was fierce. Waves roaring up... Rushing in... Swirling … Continue reading Mother Ocean
FFF 9-29 (on Saturday)
I didn't quite realize that yesterday was Friday. Ok, that sounds silly, but it's true. I'm traveling for work and that's always a little bit like being in a separate universe. So i knew it was Friday, my brain just didn't connect it to being here. Until about 3 o'clock in the morning. When i … Continue reading FFF 9-29 (on Saturday)
Fall at the Beach
Still warm, but definitely wet. With a hint of chill almost in the air. Of course I never believe it’s actually going to rain unless it actually is, so I came to the beach this morning anyhow. Looks like it might let up enough to go for a walk. Either way, I’m just glad that … Continue reading Fall at the Beach
Autumn Equinox & Letting Go
I'm not sure what meaning to find in the beginning of fall here in the south. Ok, not the deepest south, but still. Pretty far south in the US. It's not getting cold. A bit cooler, i suppose, but not cold, and unlike 'nilla from Vanillamom, i would not be thrilled to feel a chill … Continue reading Autumn Equinox & Letting Go
FFF 9-20
And it happened, y'all, a new number on the scale. "4." Yes, as in 154. Point 2. That's right. 154.2 Party is at my house - come on over! Step average is about 5,400, which is not all that good, but hey. 154.2 I'm doing something right. But the big treat today (now that i'm … Continue reading FFF 9-20
FFF – 9-14-18
Happy Friday! I am going home today, and ready to be there, I think. These few days on retreat, i've tried not to get too attached to outcome. So i haven't been born again or made new while i was here, and that's ok too. i think it's been a "Middle Way" kind of retreat. … Continue reading FFF – 9-14-18
On Retreat
I’m taking a couple of days off to myself this week. Staying at a wonderful retreat center on the river. Here’s the sunrise. Last night, I had turned off all the lights and was lying in bed playing with my massager. Suddenly, the kitchen light came on. Yes, out of the blue, kitchen light was … Continue reading On Retreat
Weird Dream
So i had this dream the other night. We had just bought a house (not sure who "we" was, but anyhow.) It was huge. It was so big that after I moved in, I realized there were whole parts of it that I hadn't even seen. So I started wandering around trying to find out … Continue reading Weird Dream
