and so we begin….

in keeping with my
non resolution
to take better care
of me
this year
over the last couple of weeks
I’ve done a couple of things
for myself
that I’ve been putting off
for…
well….
like…for ever

little did I know
I’d have to go to school
to accomplish it LoL

before christmas
I finally broke down
and bought myself
a digital camera
I got it early
cos I wanted to take pictures
over the holidays
it’s got a few
bells and whistles
and I really need to sit down
and read the book
but I was so busy
reading the 11 library books
I had with on holidays
that I simply didn’t get there
lol

this past week
I became the confused owner
of a BlackBerry Torch
this thing
is busy enough
that I’m going to have
to take one of those classes
to figure it out
but I will

this means that I will now
be able to check into
email etc while I’m away
without having to hunt down
a computer…

that’s not to say there won’t
be a netbook or laptop
in my future

so
here it is Saturday
and I’m sitting here
listening to music
and reading all about
the Torch
qu’elle fun huh?

I think I may just pack it in
and watch some SOA reruns
instead!

too bad
my non resolve
wasn’t to stop
procrastinating!

Jan 3

I’m home
and life returns to normal

got up at 7
made coffee
no big breaky for me today
the holly daze are truly over

here it is

just over 3 hours later
and I’m still online
researching
and
catching up

I made myself a list
of things
that need to get done

and started to experience
some heightened anxiety
around the amount of it
increased sense of urgency
breathing faster
toe tapping
“get on with it”

erased the list

I refuse to feel
that anxiety
in my day to day
I will find a way
to live
without it

I will step back
and breathe

slowly in
slowly out

I will find
what’s right for me
and I will remain
happy

So Mote it Be!

Into the Mystic – Van Morrison

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home
And when the fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don’t have to fear it

And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will flow into the mystic

When that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
And when that fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it
I don’t have to fear it

And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will flow into the mystic
Come on girl…
