Catching my breath

Writing wise, I feel a bit like I've been knocked down.

I mean, it's not like my life is changing drastically, or anything.

It's not like I'm boarding a plane with my family in less than twenty days, or anything.

Jeez.  I don't know what could possibly be the matter with me.

In any case, I'm blocked and stiffened.  Which, for me, means that it's time to  pull out the personal journal, scribble away in pen, and maybe do some doodling too.  Fold some laundry, vacuum, make lists of the things that are stressing me out...

I'll be back soon.

Thanks for the heads up Rae-Rae. I'm looking forward to getting some writing time in once the dust settles around here. Conversely to your situation, I have had a sort of time and energy imposed writing block for quite a while now. I look forward to starting the process soon. I'm out of my shop in 13 days. Golly. I love you to bits.

I think a list of the things that soothe you is in order too! Let me also start a list of the things that are great about the timing of your trip... you are going to miss the "run up to election '08"! mark

i love the pen days, the doodles, the notes from school,
miss those times,
twenty days will go by fast, time to take deep breaths and love the life you live, even the stressful parts, my gurudev says all the suffering and stress is really mercy, it is neither good nor bad, it just is, and will enver cease to be,
you're in god's hands momma, every little ting is gonna be alright!
scirbe away !

sometimes i type too fast,
i ment never cease to be, and scribble,...
a little passion allows the reader who tries to understand what the heck i was saying i guess...
love to you dear one
