My new temporary home has a dog and a cat. It has two little boys and their parents. It has Lincoln Logs and Legos. There is a fireplace that warms the house, and clerestory windows that let in dappled light, and (again!) a lake in the back yard.
When The Badness came to see me a couple of weeks ago, I had multiple friends who offered to let me to stay with them until I am back on my feet. I decided the home of these friends way outside Atlanta, a sprawling house out in the woods, was just the right place. When I finally drove up to the house on Sunday night after leaving Miami, with every part of me feeling bruised and weary, my friend came outside to welcome me. She enveloped me in a huge hug and said, "Thank you for choosing us." I think that was the most incredible and awesome thing to say in that moment.
There is no traffic. They know all their neighbors. The town gets only a scratchy signal from the Atlanta NPR affiliate. There's even a legit Feed & Seed in town. It's dark at night, and as soon as the clouds break, I'll be able to see the stars.
look at your eyes, they don't sparkle anymore
look what I've done
I've ruined it for everyone
I should have held on harder to my innocence

A couple years ago I lost about 30 pounds, which on my five-foot frame was almost 1/5 of my body weight. After my wedding last April, I gained back 20 of them. It's not really that I feel bad about my body as much as I regret the loss of all I worked so hard for. I don't know if I'm going to lose weight again, but I do know it's time to at least get real about it.

Today was kind of rough to start. I had a huge fight with a friend and really debating cutting them out and starting over. I am still not sure if our reconciliation is genuine but they are a very good friend and I am hoping for the best.
yep this is the Earth's Core where many lost souls are trapped in the stone & molten lava...a Geological fault in a way....
many humans were turned to stone or petrified wood in the old days but each eruption or rupture of the Earth's Crust throws them back into the light to walk the Earth unseen until their futures are decided for good...until the end of time
thanks for looking in....appreciated.....best bigger....hope you have a Great Weekend
the new look Panda Girls have got their hands full with some persistent residents...the unearthly spirits that haunt pictures.....maybe Pandora's Box
thanks for looking in....appreciated......best bigger......hope you have a Great Weekend
had a Panda Girl's head so added a body...mixed with a design that I hoped would give a bionic look in an abstract kind of way.....if not then it's quite a snappy outfit.....
thanks for looking in....appreciated......best bigger....hope you have a Great Weekend

Good News: I case you were wondering after my last post- I was able to take my compy along with me!! Bad News: it turns out about half the keys on the right side of my keyboard aren't working. It makes typing things a million times more annoying and tedious (thus, the absence from Flickr).
News subject to opinion: This is officially Day 1.
Yeah, I'm starting Year 2. ;-)
It's actually kinda a funny story how I decided to start anther 365, but it takes a ton of typing so I'll save it for now.
Honestly, Imogen (who partly inspired me to start again!) almost exactly summed up how I want to do this- I've already proved I can do it for a entire year without missing a day. This time around is just going to be nice and loose. :]

From March 1, 2022: Today, I’m starting a new journey of self reflection & exploration. I’m hoping to connect more deeply with myself as I work to overcome my depression. Often, I’m too quick to jump online & moan about the state of my life, which can be okay, but I need to be able to see through the negative towards more positive outcomes. To know that I’m not always so worthless or useless. To know that I have something to offer in life.
I want to feel more positive about myself because I’m the only person I have in my life that I can depend on for the love I desire. I know I have a habit where I say these kind of thoughts, & in other posts I’ve often talked about trying to actualize these things, trying to actualize unconditional love & reverence for all life starting with myself, but I also know that I’ve often failed at doing this for myself. It’s time to stop failing. As author @shannonkaiserwrites says, it’s time to start living & using joy as a barometer for how I feel.
In terms of the selfies I’d like to capture this month, I want to explore ways of seeing myself visually that I haven’t done before over the last two years, while also keeping them authentic to how I feel.
I admit, I’m nervous that I will start strong & then fall again. I need to craft some kind of a safety plan for when I feel myself growing weak. A way to lift me up from under the weight of the metaphorical bricks that can feel too heavy on my shoulders. I’m not sure what that will look like but maybe that’s a question I can put to my non-physical guides & teachers in tomorrow mornings automatic writing session.
Another thing that I need to do this month is reach out for help. I’ve been struggling so much, & I haven’t done the things I need to do to get better. There were times in January & February when I felt lower than I did when I ended up in hospital for my depression. It’s not some thing I’m proud of. But I have to get over being upset with myself or feeling guilty for not getting the help that I know I need. Because when I do that I just cycle down into more shame, regret & remorse to the point of paralysis. So this is my manifesto: that kind of shit ends today.
I took my photo today, of my feet, walking through the mess that’s on my bathroom floor. I placed my camera down on the floor to look straight ahead at where my feet would walk, & I used a delayed shutter release to capture the image with a shallow depth of field. I think I’m happy with the shot, my bare feet still scarred from when I cut them up in January after walking 10 km & boots that didn’t fit properly. It’s taking almost 2 months for my feet to feel comfortable in shoes again. They might’ve healed more quickly had i not continue to walk for a few days after hurting my feet. By doing that, I made my feet feel worse, even though I was wearing padded Band-Aids, gauze & thick socks, returning to my old shoes that I had worn before trying out the new boots. So one foot still looks worse than it feels, in fact I feel nothing at all, even though it’s still purple & bruised. But it’s a reminder that with time, even the deepest of wounds can heal, & one can carry on in life as if nothing had even happened at all. Finally, I’m also loving how you can see the blurred outline of my beautiful dog Kira, who was standing in the hallway probably wondering what it was I was trying to do.

Did you know August is Anal Sex Month? Anal is one of our culture’s biggest taboo — and with that, there’s tons of misconceptions about how it feels and who really wants it.

I can feel our hearts beat. Even though I don't know who she is, I am going to have a freaking gorgeous wife. I just know it. She's going to have an wicked sense if humor, a great smile, she'll be honest, my partner in crime. I know that she will love the lord and that she will help me love him too. I used to pray for my wife all the time, like almost twice a week. I like to think that one day I will find out that she was praying for me too. I feel like I need to get back into the swing of that. God has someone out there for me. I'm excited to meet her.
oh, and she'll have a really nice butt.

I got another kidney stone (my first one was 18 years ago and I had to have surgery) last month around this time. This was caused by eating too much spinach. Yes. All the eating clean and exercise I was doing prior to my kidney stone seemed in vain to me. I was thinking even too much of a good thing was bad. I admit, I was discouraged and depressed so after recovering from being sick which took almost two weeks, I began to slowly get back into exercise and eating clean (minus the spinach). However, I was still very discouraged and my exercise became more sporadic to only 1-2 times a week and I wasn't eating as much salad as I had been prior to the kidney stone. So now, I'm starting over. I'm gong back to my exercise, eating clean and staying positive! :-)

We left behind the busy crowd.
So it seems we slow down.
Meet me with a way out through the lies.
Nowhere, going nowhere in the fake yellow light.
The feelings change so fast.
Safety scares them away.
I can't bring myself to say it's my own advice I need.
Nowhere and then nowhere.
Living trapped inside the chase.
Our weakness is the same.
We need poison sometimes.
So take another drink with me.
Blame no one.
Look in my eyes and blame no one. .
Busy day of getting some things sorted out. Today I am feeling hopeful and alone. It is a new start to something I am a bit scared to face but I need to be on my own. I know I can do it and I think I can make things work this time for myself, and hopefully better myself.
I’m not what you’d call an incredibly sexual person. Not anymore, anyway. I’m in my fifties now (and hopefully wiser for the wear), so I no longer have the frisky energy of a younger woman. In fact, it’s that very lack of desperation that’s freed me, sexually speaking. Having come to terms with the mature woman that I’ve become, I’m clearly in touch with what I want. And what I want is younger men.

In their 4th annual study, Singles in America, Match.com got down and dirty to see exactly who out there is having the most orgasms. Thanks to this very precious knowledge, we can now all orgasm all the time by forcing ourselves to become a member of one of the following groups. Besides, you wanted to change careers anyway.

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when the day is done
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
- Feeling Good, Muse
