In Process
In process. I keep this energy in my head. It sticks to my throat and manifests as anxiety. How do I get out of the buzzing thoughts that need to come out - to form creation. But create what? Here is where I live. This is what I move away from. Quite literally, and figuratively. I’ve found a space that nurtures, that enlivens, that inspires. Now to dig in. Commit. Practice. Find the sacred in the mundane. Here I am.


Church
Church. It’s Sunday morning and I’m driving to Church. The only time I go to church since being a real adult is to attend funerals. The day is bright, bursting with autumn colors and truly stunning.

Nomad
I moved from Milwaukee to Santa Fe in order to break my workaholic, go-go-go and the addicted to being too busy kind of lifestyle. Today I woke up, walked the dogs for an hour, fed them by creating a homemade mix of organic starch, bison and green vegetables covered with bone broth.
