Starting a New Day

Wow, this is probably the longest wild-ride stretch I have
had in years! I wonder if anyone else has withdrawal
symptoms from wild-rides, like I am having! I am grateful
for the fact that I have my stash of healthy foods and
recipies that I nurture myself with or I would never make it
through even the littlest wild-rides let alone the withdrawal
process, shake, shivver and sigh! Actually I have found that
every withdrawal leads to yet another wild-ride. Maybe it's
addiction, but I seem to making headway with my mission
whatever the label one gives my personal style!

I have to announce, I’m starting to use facebook now,
maybe once a week. I need a helper however. Someone to
phone me up and help focus me ...mostly for mutual
business support and promotions. So don't look for me
there if you are sensitive to the word business.

As for muse news ... my muse and I have both been working
hard. We hybernated alone/together with BlogTalkRadio for3 days last week; all business and love talks of course.
Our new best friends. I am still reeling from trying to wrap my mind around all the social media telecommunications jargon.

Happily my old friends haven't given up on me; they understand my need for hiding out often, doing my dream-work and drawing new ideas and renewed strenght from the written and spoken word via the internet. I really am grateful for the like-minded people I have in my life, we all seem to understand the value of old friendships as well as that new friends are the life-blood of any world-class worthy project or mission. Sadly I haven't seen any of my friends from the Self- Sufficiency Group at all.

I caught up with my friend Flora, from Canada, who I met at an art-activist workshop one evening last month. Flora is absolutely invogorating; we want to start an art-activist
business Meetup/networkinggroup. Muse, Carla and I also went to Tenino once to listen to a friend of mine playing back-up at a concert. His group is going to Russia to compete internationally and are very excited about that. ((Supporting worthy local arts are crucial to help clean up and light up the darkness in this world.)) After the concert, we toured Wolf Haven, the most amazing wolf preserve. We also had a very fabulous dinner at Alice's Restaurant and vineyard on Johnson Creek (and no, I did not surrender to the grape. Still doing the clean and sober thing.
