Where to Look
Inside each of us is that something that wants to find its way to the surface. It's the thing that wakes us and we toss and turn as our minds can't push it away. It's the thing that sparks us to take chances and make mistakes so we can become better at it. It is there wanting to bloom. All we have to do is plant it somewhere and nurture it on.
Plant your inspiration and let it grow into your best self. Don't give up. Visualize it in the future. You'll find that you run into just the right person, or exactly the situation you need to happen. It is living in the flow that makes us grow. Get planting!
So where have I been. Flowing along. Computer crashed. It seems to have costly problems but beyond that my tutoring is going along in wonderful ways, and my catering job has added new areas of service with a smile to my life. I have found myself at parties with people I haven't seen in years. The hugs are great and the money ain't bad either. If some of you remember my birthday video where I sang...well that was a year ago in March. At that time I declared to the universe and All that Is that I was going to open myself up for the music to flow back into my life. It has lifted me in many ways. My new partner is an excellent musician and we made a CD. Through the catering work I ran into a woman who is dating the owner of a resort hotel and restaurant here on the coast. She loved it, he loved it and their manager loved it. We will be doing a paying gig there in the not too far off future. It was like the pieces just started snapping into place. I am so grateful for this music energy and the hard work of memorizing the songs is actully quite a joy. My children know the music and sing along in the car as we travel. They laugh at my mistakes and correct me when I fill in silly words when I test my memory. It's been fun for us all.
Anyway... I miss my Xanga "Buds". As soon as the computer makes it back home I will be back to write more. Teen Dude, almost College Dude has let me borrow his lap top. He is however breathing down my neck to give it back, so I'll pat my heart once more and point to you all and see you around the next corner of life. Be well, breathe deep, flow on, take chances and most of all believe in the amazing person who is YOU.
(pats heart and points to you)

Congratulations on the singing gig! I remember the video. Glad you're going with the flow and life is providing.
Cool beans! and happy birthday (if I missed it! ) love the ways things are falling together for you. :)
At the moment, I am covered in Oklahoma red dirt, preparing beds to plants all day. Sat out with MM to watch the stars. Flow is good here too. (((hugs)))
What an amazing gig, so happy for you! Will we get to hear/see your new adventure?
I am getting rained on today, so tomorrow will be a good day to weed the front planting box and put my wife's last hospital gift plant into the soil.
did you mean this to be advice, " Plant your inspiration and let it grow into your best self. Don't
give up. Visualize it in the future. You'll find that you run into
just the right person, or exactly the situation you need to happen. It
is living in the flow that makes us grow. Get planting!"???

::: hugs ::: Hope to see you again soon!
Cool beans on the CD, too!
@guestbrief - Cool Beans is mine! LOL
Well, you know how I feel about you.
@SamsPeeps - Sorry, didn't mean to take your signature expression. But I agree with you!! :)
Real happy for you Lyne on the catering business and singing . Sorry about the computer though. Love and blessings.
Thanks for letting us know what you've been doing, and thanks to almost College Dude for sharing, however briefly.
Rock on Mornin Glorie....I planted and worked the soil today...it's an inspiration indeed...ilym
@guestbrief - @SamsPeeps - I think cool beans is actually mine...and I figure I'm the oldest
@mlbncsga -

I'm feeling positives vibes emitting from you. Bravo! Kudos on the paying singing gig!
I love that you're following your dreams. I hope to do that soon too!
I loved reading your post, you're so positive! It's refreshing! Congratulations on the singing gig!
Hello, how are you? Long time no see!
Well, you do the catering too? It would be nice to try your service if you were around here in Thailand. We gotta have catering in every event!
I love it when you hear the universe get the right words with a perfect tune! I'm waiting for "harmony" and have opened myself to the possibilities of change. So glad Teen Dude is gracious in letting you get a post up! Hope everything continues to flower!

Apparently I drag a finger..who knew (toothy smile) This music opportunity is so right for what I want to do. The catering is for a local catering company. I was hired to do the quotes on jobs, pricing them out, contact with clients front of the house services, catering service. It is not my business, but anyone I work for, I make their business my business.. I represent the business. It's work I know well, and if I help the business survive this ecomony, I've done a good thing. It will benefit both the business and I. Thank you all for your support. It means a lot to me and I know many of you are on a "best self" journey of your own. Mine is proving its excellence and I hope all of you find the same energy in your fine efforts, prayers, and inspirations that become focused as we nurure them on each day. The font is so small now. I feel like Alice in Wondereland as it zooms out smaller and smaller. hahahaha. Must find the cookie that makes it grow. hahahaha. I spent the day outside bringing my yard to good order after a long raining spell. We had some trees cut back due to their falling and the yard is open and full of live. It has been a great day. Hugs to you all. Onward!
This just made me smile ,thinking of you singing silly words to songs driving along. Glad so many little pieces are falling into place for you! MISS YOU.
I peeked at my new herb garden just this morning. My basil has sprouted and I see hints that my oregano is not far behind.
@seedsower - Thank you Beth. What a complete joy the music has become again in my life. I am soooo open to the journey ahead.
@Pepin909 - Basil is the most amazing herb. I just ate Caprese appetizers which is mozzarella balls and cherry tomato with a leaf of basil in between the two. Delightful flavor burst.
@guestbrief - @mlbncsga - mine, mine, mine! LOL
But if you want to 'fess up to being the oldest...
Stopped by to say hey, my fine-hatted friend. Hope you are well and dandy and all of that. ::: hugs :::
@SamsPeeps - Thanks Peeps. Hi Ho Hi Ho! hehehehe HUGS!
Your blogs always give me a lift. They're meant to, aren't they? I have to come by more often.
With the drought we've been in my inspiration might be the only thing that grows here. :D
@twoberry - Thank you. Lift is GREAT! (pats heart and points to you)
@sir_spamalot - Not a bad seed to nurture, eh? (toothy smile)
i want that skinny, youn ggirl, full of energy to surface and give this old body a rest.
@tymedancer - Amen to that Sista!
Happy for you. Salute!
