Root Heart Throat

I think I just spent the best hour of my week. At least one of them...

I made it up to see Tina Fey as Palin, and as expected she was spot on. I laughed my a*s off. At about midnight I went up to bed and fell asleep shortly after. This morning I am almost embarrassed to admit that I slept until almost 10 am. I hopped in the shower and headed down to make coffee. In clean, comfy pjs I drank coffee and ate a piece of lemon poppy bread that I baked yesterday. I changed purses and gathered receipts from my errands to make sure I keep track of my debits.

And now I am sitting down to write at 10:50. This could be a second favorite hour....

*****************

Your new friends' (as you refer to them) house sounds beautiful. Just say built-in bookshelves and I get veklempt. Sounds like it had good energy, like they have good energy. I'm glad you put yourself amidst it all. We often think (at least I do) of not attending an unappealing or stressful function or not putting yourself among energy drainers (T&S?) as honoring yourself. But choosing to put yourself among good and happy people, who model healthy relationships, in peaceful and inspiring settings is honoring yourself too. It was self-affirming to choose dinner plans with P and D, to put yourself and J around a dinner table with a couple who clearly have it together.

When I first sat down to write I thought I might segue my discussion of the beach house full of books to my discussion feng shui and chakras, of my new loft unit with high ceilings and red sofas (root chakra--self-confidence) and my obsessions with lime green (heart chakra--love) and turquoise (throat chakra--voice) and my thyroid issue (blocked throat chakra) ...but I don't know where to start, and will undoubtedly run out of time. Despite the rain, the pee wee football game I am attending to watch S's cheerleading debut (don't get me started) will not be cancelled so I still need to leave by 1. If it were cancelled I'd still go for a visit, but wouldn't have to leave so early. Oh well.

I hope you have a good day. I'll check in when I get back tonight.

Love, Barb
