The Desk Has Ascended!

 Can you believe that the day has finally arrived!!!

Still have to settle it all in

But!

Look at it! 

Now compare the old table… 

It now lives in our kitchen 

Where the sheer square space of it

Is much more appropriate…

Even husband said it felt more inviting to sit and eat than the last lil table we had set up…

I have so many lil things that need to get pushed around 

Here and there 

Pictures and mirrors etc etc… 

And there had been 

One colossal distraction last week 

Kind of slowing all of the progress…

I’ve been working on my ACNH island…

Is that art imitating life or an Artist imitating their real life?

Horse painting anyone…?

LoL

We’ve been obsessed with the UK show TaskMaster as well, which now I’ve attempted to recreate on our Animal Crossing Island… almost finished with it… 

And I’m off!

Writing and painting and living and yeah there’s dancing and singing too… 

Trying to take in all of this energy that’s coming in!

Wicked Wednesday WWYD

 



What if you could do anything you wanted?

What would it be?

Despite reality….

What is that?

What does that thing, moment, place, time look like?

What does it feel, smell, taste like?

Can that depth translate to where you are now…?

Knowing that there may be someone somewhere right now, 

Who is wishing that their be/do anything… is where you are…

Does it change your perception…

Or is the next level of choice enough to sweeten where you are?

Maybe the fact that this place to look forward to or fantasize about exists… gives a spark to feed your fire.

Beyond that fantastic thinking…

Do you feel then a longing to have what you want?

Some research on the subject… book, film, video, friend with personal knowledge… maybe this gets you more interested, or adds depth to your vision. And try not to listen to those who would yuck your yum~ if you get my meaning. They have hurt inside that isn’t resolved and zap those around them out of that unhealed wound ~ not your fault/responsibility.

Collect these bites of information, collect enough to feel if you have authentic need to make a plan.

Warning! 

There may be adversities in the way…

For most of us hitting this wall, that seems ever-present, this  will send us clear out of the dream.

But hold on!

Maybe at first impression, you don’t have the resolve to try to find a work around. In most cases there are ways to get from point A to point B… in a lot of cases it can/will be obscured by obvious hindrances. 

The ignition though ~when the plan becomes apparent is almost better than achieving the thing as a whole.

Perhaps just subverting the gate kept secrets to getting the once perceived un-gettable makes it worth the trouble… and even in this stage… sends a ripple out through the community and collective unconscious… messaging to others with a whisper…

Anything is possible… 

The effort taken, will never be in vain. 

But really. What would you do today, right now as you are reading this, if you could do anything? 

My Fire to Your Fire

November ‘22 Life Update

 Doggy surgery:

She came out of her ~ Spa Day~ as though nothing had happened. We had given them a heads up that she had trouble coming out of anesthesia the last time her lumps and bumps were removed. It made all of the difference. Having a new vet also made a difference. They are so nice to her, and give us tons of aftercare advice as well as letting us know that we can reach out with questions at any time.

Just a little more time in the cone and she’ll be free again! 

I slept on the couch to be right there if she needed anything, water, walkies, reassurance. Small sacrifice. I mean, I got to steal some crisp linens with the fluffy pillow from the guest bedroom, so, I didn’t sleep long, but well, all in all. Especially since Charli Girl was resting so well. Crisis averted. Healing is my specialty. Regimen and recipes, wrapped up in science, my favorite.

So we will take the next bit of time to get her set… then… more paint! 


I figure we have time to choose… brown orange, orange orange or yellow orange…??? 

There are little things that hopefully will make it off the to do list soon as well, like a light fixture and new faucet for the upstairs bathroom… 

We are looking forward to pie though… isn’t it next week? 

Still not gathering, still having an immune system that thinks it’s 25yrs older than my outside lol. Would love to live till 90, thanks. 

I know most people don’t understand. That’s their problem. Honestly. I know full well that when people want to stick to their own narrative they are going to do just that. I’m on a mission. I don’t really feel compelled to convince anyone. Those who get it have shown up. I’m done chasing the idea of relationships with people who would not be compelled or be ready to grasp any other concept besides their own impulses. 

And if we’re being realistic, I’m no longer interested in being the gracious host, only to feel used and empty afterwards. Some people only show up for the lure of being served. If you can not reciprocate. Well, that says more about you, doesn’t it. 

This is getting deep. 

Do we pull away? It won’t benefit my journey, and I’m steering the ship, so…

It’s snowing here just now on the hill, big fat snow globe flakes and there’s a fire on. Bliss! 

Time for coffee!
