on life changes and seasonal living

funny -- the last entry i was so caught up in going to a different town, going for a master's in english, getting out out out. things are different now. B left his old job after three paychecks bounced in a row. then, through a friend, he's got more work as an independent contractor(he's a handyman) than he ever could have imagined. so moving is out. the next plan is...i don't know. the plan is to write, and ponder and stick to a project that is publishable.

on another note, i've just planted my herb garden for this year. last year i tried tomatoes, but for various reasons they failed. this year is herbs and one pepper plant so far. i want to live much more seasonally than i ever have before. what i do, what i eat, when i sleep, how much i am outside. i hole up in my apartment far too much. it's a safety net thing, i think.

i've been reading the newest book by Mireille Guiliano, French Women for all Seasons, which explains my seasonal living kick. but it's more than just that book. living close to nature is something i've always aspired toward, but this book has given me new insights. i highly recommend it...and not just for information. it's a light, fun, summertime read as well.

what else...what else?

there is so much to do, so much i want to do....

i want to get more into my practice, and redefine what is spiritual in my life. it's been spiritually empty. i guess the best definition for what i "practice" is kitchen witchery. it helps me connect with god in a way that christianity did not.

i need to write more, definitely. i will be posting here much more frequently...rants and ravings and ponderings on life, as well as my boring old updates. i want to get something, anything, published this year.

there's so much more...i can't think right now enough to clarify. more later!

leave me notes

this, that and the other
