Up in the air after that. Let me know if you want to drop by and I will try to post here soon too.
I still have a few ornaments and we made oil lamps last night too.

Ultimate Gift Guide

Ultimate Gift GuideThe gazette gift guide. Figured if I tell you to look I better provide a linkage.
Time is flying to quickly. It hardly seems possible that Christmas is just around the corner. I need to find some unique gift ideas. Something too cool.
Off to shop. Will let you know if I find anything out of this world. Do check out the holiday shopping guide in the gazzette this issue. Looks to be some good stores listed.
Peace.

Thinking as of late as to the nature of man. What is my nature? How do I behave, react, process, and retell? What is it that drives me? Why do I do the same things over and over; wishing to change but not changing at all? Where do the seeds of change become planted and how is it I water and tend to those seeds? Or do I pull them out by the root before growth can occur.
Heard yesterday that enlightenment comes in spirts. We gain a little and then we go back to normal mind. We do not obtain the enlightenment and keep it.
The story of the wolves inside and that which we feed, the story of the frog and the scorpion, the lady and the snake. All these things to show us a metaphor for our natures and the outcomes of those ways of being.
Last night I have a dream with Hunter S. Thompson. My nature has changed. I am not the way I once was. But then I am not sure with what I replaced that which I was. Where is the nature of the way I currently am and can I change?

I am remiss in the photography department. I was thinking it would be easy to get photos taken and posted. It is difficult. I carried around the camera for a while and it was no better in th photo taking front. due diligence.

Well, we are planning on blowing glass this afternoon. I am excited. I do so look forward to making some good stuff. I must say I am tired too. I just do not feel like I have been getting any sleep as of late. I look forward to the time when I am all caught up on sleepiness. I try to get to bed by 10:30 or so and I wake up feeling like I hardly splept at all.
I wish I knew Yoda quotes better. Fear and Anger - - Leading to the dark side. Give these things up as soon as I become aware of them creeping into my daily life.
Do what is right. Do the next right thing. How do we know what is right. That stems from a close relationship with god. Turn to the divine and ask for guidance. The way to go will be shown. It it is not continue to turn those things over.
You know of the bull. It has two horns. We can choose the left or the right. Often times I do not make a decision and I just get run down the middle.

You good people over on Western have it so good. In the middle of the mecca of coffee shops. Throw a rock and you can hit a cup of espresso. I am tho so in the wasteland of suburbia.
I am in the process of trying to change. It is difficult. There are areas of life I neglict. Others areas I do semi-well. I try to remember I do not ever have to worry. I try to let it all go. I forget to do this in the middle of the whole of the process of living and only later remember to turn it over. Reading this morning I was once again reminded to let the will of god be done and not mine.
Getting better all the time.

Wishing we had a decent coffee shop in this town. I hate to think about driving clear across the city for a hazelnut latte. I just don't have time to anymore. We are thinking about getting a pod coffee maker for the studio. Nice and clean. Target has them. I think a problem is in five years, if that coffee maker is even still running, it will be impossible to find the right pod to go into it. Also, I like fresh ground coffee. I am unsure of the quality of something produced in mass and sitting on a shelf for a long time.

why do I have to shrink and go away so someone else gets to grow?"
