(+ plenty of dog adventures)

Yesterday began at 4am — awakened by Belle but also that oddly magical Brahma Murti Time. Cleaned and organized for three or four hours and then went back to sleep. Excited for my friends Taniya and Michael’s baby shower at Dosa, as I was leaving at 11:15, a loud scraping sound stopped me. The ...
Especially at the Apple Store. I feel about the Apple Store like Holly Golightly felt about Tiffany’s — NOTHING bad can ever happen to you there. Sure, I’ve been there once or twice with a problem (one they’ve always solved), but mostly it just feels that I’ve stepped into a b...
Very intense leaving at 4 am for San Francisco, but delightful to land at 11 am and have the full day ahead. As I said, I spent a large chunk of the flight listening to my Human Design reading, one that has totally rocked my world and redefined so much for me.  Still processing it all but took extensi...
Belle’s first signing was a triumph. Trixie + Peanut was an ideal venue. So heartening that the first two people there who bought books were  … STRANGERS!  This great guy who learned of it through twitter and then another woman who was shopping in the store and drawn to the book. So many wonder...

It was an utterly perfect day weather-wise in San Francisco, but my horoscope on Astro.com was dead on: Buried Tensions ** Be extremely careful of your tendency toward moody irritability at this time. You are very subject to outbreaks of irrational and compulsive behavior that will not serve your bes...
Yesterday, I swear I searched for five full minutes for matches to light one of the burners on the stove, only to discover that they’d been there the entire time. Or at least I think so … Bashar –– my favorite channeled alien –– speaks a lot about shifting between endles...
Spent the bulk of the day creating a TREASURE MAP (per Susan’s suggestion) that would help me refocus on all that’s working well. I may not have an enneagram type, but I definitely am the sort who is often 99% focused on the 1% that isn’t working.  Not in annnoying way to others –– like w...
Well — not really, but still one hour before class text from Jasmine at the Double L asking if I wanted to sub for her at 4:30. Class was delightful and spontaneous. I loved EVERYTHING about it. Monday morning brought the final version of the book promo video — such a delight to share. Cyrene d...
