“ We can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don’t know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don’t care that we don’t. — Dylan Thomas

"the only way of full knowledge lies in the act of love; this act transcends thought, it transcends words. It is the daring plunge into the experience of union. To love somebody is not just a strong feeling- it is a decision, it is a judgement, it is a promise."- Erich Fromm If the Budda Dated. I'm figuring out my path slowly- Converted Bus style down by the river!

Wee little man, and my monkey Ady

UGGG, So much is going on. I partly blame the eclipse of July 7th combined with my birthday. I feel like I am in the book "a series of unfortunate events". Went to Rochester, MN, the city is well community oriented, but the town is very strange- everything seemed to be so spread out. Anyway My nephew is very cute, he has a little grumpy old man face when he sleeps, and he snores a little. Ady stuck to me like glue the first few days I was there, and mom took me for a surprise pedi! Come Saturday afternoon I was ready to leave or go sit at a bar somewhere. But instead I Ran and I walked (a Lot) according to my phone I walked 8 miles, ran 2.5 miles. Once I got back to NC Mat and I enjoyed a bit of Asheville, then off to home.... aaahhh it is nice to be home. I am very thankful for my time I was able to spend with Ady and Owen, but somethings never change, and I am just going to have to except that. Mat and I are getting ready to go camping and hiking for the first time all year, I'm very excited about that - it is not like us to wait this long to get out there this time of year. We both are in major need of it before we completely lose it. I don't really have much more to say.... I need to sew, I have a few custom orders I'm waiting for checks on, and I have a skirt I really need to finish. I just need to get motivated.
