i am green

it’s been so friggin’ long i forgot how to log onto this thing!
the tide changed and i found myself with very little time for posting – i’ll blame it on the holidays and working alot even though those reasons don’t tell the half of it!….
PERSONAL UPDATE:
3 very good things- my love successfully QUIT SMOKING! and i managed to dump the adulterous yoga man off my schedule without hurting anyone in the process! AND, in his place i’ve found a new yoga student/friend/partner-in-crime who is challenging me to move into parts of myself and my teaching i’ve been hiding from for too long!
quite frankly, i’m scared to death and having growing pains that feel like “spiritual anxiety attacks” at times but as my fortune cookie mantra says:
I FEAR NO STORM, FOR I AM LEARNING TO SAIL MY SHIP.

good to know. it’s all “practice” to some extent or another!

life is so good that even the psychic (eek!) that i went to see with a friend couldn’t stop telling me how good i’ve got it!…ESPECIALLY in the love department. i couldn’t be happier and she could clearly “see” that too.
teaching has been steady but in 2007 i’ve managed to rearrange my schedule so that i have alot more free time to take the pup to the park and get some sunshine on my face which makes my soul light.
recently too, i’ve been digging deeper spiritually. had to come face to face with some “issues” involving an invitation to easter mass from the boyfriend’s mom. she and i have never had “the talk” about my religious choices/beliefs but she’s strict catholic and at some point it’s going to have to be addressed directly. i thought this was it – but it seems it was not. which is good!
it’s given me a wake-up call to really search within myself for what fulfills me and how i define my beliefs (which is something i hesitate/have hesitated to do for quite some time) and look at how i will deal with this issue in the future.
i’m excited about it actually. a new fire lit under my ass to keep the search on!

in other, more mundane, news: i’ve been sewing up a STORM! i got a machine for christmas and have been obsessed ever since. it was something i always knew i’d be good at and enjoy if i ever just got around to dedicating myself to learning – and i was right! something about the way my mind and creativity work allows me to catch-on to it with ease and that makes me happy! reminds me of going to sleep as a child with the comforting sound of my mom sewing in the other room. that gentle vruuuuur and the hummmmm of the vaccum cleaner are very nastolgic sounds for me!

okay – here’s to posting a bit more and growing everyday!
