We made a beautiful Solstice snowflake this morning... it's all 'edgy' and sharp. ;) It joined yesterday's on the window and it's already starting to feel festive in the house. We started the morning simmering mulled apple juice which REALLY made the house smell lovely. (dd has made mulling spices in little meslun bags and is selling them at the end of the driveway at the egg stand)
Although the morning and early afternoon was spent at home, there was lots to do. And when it was time to go out, wow, did the pace ever pick up! zip zip zip here and there, sooooo many errands... concurrent timings for the kids - one needed to be here while the other needs to be there at the same time... it made for a slightly hectic afternoon, 'though i stayed sane and calm throughout and actually it was pleasant. i realized, as i rushed down the front garden path, that even if i *felt* rushed inside, that was a choice i was making. i could simply choose to just go calmly from one timing to the next without exhibiting any 'rush-ness' on the outside. so that's what i did, and it made for a very pleasant afternoon.
we had our holiday tai chi potluck tonight and it was loads of fun. the kids ate lots, ds entertained us on the piano and we did a couple sets of tai chi, which was the perfect way to end a busy day.
when i came home, i had a rose petal bath. i got a lb of organic rose petals today in an order and wanted to soak in them. it was... sublime. To soak in a tub of floating rose petals was to feel pampered, made me feel like royalty. It was really, really nice.
Other things I got on the order: chlorella powder, spirulina, white and purple mulberries, borage oil, golden/incaberries, acai berry powder, dried nettles... i'm looking forward to enjoying it all over the next while...
I feel very blessed. I'm grateful for the wonderful day I enjoyed, for the hugs and snuggles with my children, to the companionship of friends, for laughter, for Open Mind, for my health, for love.
My adventures in living mindfully... To honour myself with raw vegan food, physical exercise and mental stimulation, with love, compassion and laughter...
02 December 2010
let the festivities begin!!!
my kids *LOVE* december! They were *SO* excited about today, they even woke up early... and quickly. Which is saying something about dd, who usually takes well over an hour between the eyelids fluttering and her actually being fully awake. ;) Not this morn; she hopped up and reminded me it was time to make our first Solstice snowflake!!
So our first Solstice snowflake was cut. The first one is never as intricate as the later ones, but still, this year she offered to help cut and it turned out great! One big one and three tiny ones up on the window, awaiting more to join them on days to come. It's just a great way to count down to Solstice, to remember December's not JUST about Christmas.
After the snowflake was done and up, however, it was onto the Advent Calendars. ds has his 'usual' - the Lego City calendar and dd has a 'Playmobil' calendar. They're both cute calendars - today he got the pieces for a snowman (with carrot nose!) and she got a horse.
Little House on the Prairie, season 8, arrived at the library. We've skipped Seasons 3 and 7 (we're on the waitlist for them through the library system)... so we started watching season 8 tonight and laughed as things have obviously happened in Season 7 that we're unaware of, so we spent a bit of time trying to figure everything out. I *LOVE* that my kids enjoy this show. To me, it's just a good, wholesome show. And ya, I realize it's not REALISTIC in terms of what life was like 125 or more years ago in N America. I *know* there was a lot more hardship than what is portrayed. (Like the few stories I've heard of my great grandparents who apparently lived in a 'soddie' (earthen 'cave' is how it was described) with their many children on the Canadian prairies, through harsh winters... I know so few details, but i can imagine how it must've been)...
I've really enjoyed the show PioneerQuest that was on Cdn tv a long while back - it was a reality tv series where 2 couples attempted to live as pioneers in manitoba for a year, and they couldn't've picked a worse year - harsh mosquitoes (well, HELLO, it's manitoba, DUH!), drought, then the worst winter of the century... eeks. After the show ended one couple toured schools across the country sharing their message of life as a pioneer (check out their B&B page!). I think that's an awesome way to further the learning opportunity around the show.
alas, i find myself lost in webpages of pioneer life... ;) where was i?!?
it was a pretty leisurely day, 'though i got lots accomplished (what *IS* it with me getting things done?!?)... i'm not even going to TELL you all i got done. i'm just gonna let it go! okay, well, how was I *BEING* today? well, actually, the day was perfect! i remained centered and calm and just full of love and peace and happiness today. i remembered that it was 'Pay it Forward' day and didn't get terribly disgruntled at grumpy people, instead remembered to send them a little compassionate prayer that their grumpiness subside and happiness and love prevail in their hearts (did i just hear you sneeze 'sappy'?!? ha ha ha) ah, yep, today was great.
i loved driving with the dog sitting in the passenger seat (the back was FULL to the ceiling with animal feed and straw and bedding)... she totally knows it's not her usual place in the car and soaks up all the love while she's up in front. ha ha ha chocolate labs. they can look so pathetically adorable.
i loved cleaning out the chicken coop today. strange? not really. i've come to learn to speak 'chicken' and i know that these sentient beings really do appreciate having clean wood shavings on the floor of their coop. they appreciate having growing green pasture to scratch around in and they appreciate my affections. they cluck happily away as i clean their coop. it's nice to feel appreciated. :D
i loved watching LHOTP with the kids tonight.
i loved chatting with dh on the phone. yep, it sucks that he works out of town, but i'm grateful he has a job he loves, a job that allows me the bliss of being a stay-at-home mom (dream come true) and that he's able to call and chat from work. ;)
i love playing duets with dd on the piano. we kick ass at "Alley Cat Choir"!!! and i love listening to ds play. he is *SO* enjoying the songs he's learned, like the Flinstones' theme song, and Edelweiss, and the Star Wars theme song.
and i love the hugs my kids give me. they are the absolute bestest. ever.
and i'm very very grateful for the conversation and friendship of the other hs'ing mamas today at swimming. i just loved chatting with them.
i loved picking up our organic farm box today and chatting with the farmer. i learned that it's cut worms that are devastating my kale crop at home and i also got the most beautiful food in that box. her carrots taste SO much better than a grocery store carrot, even an organic supermarket carrot. fresh *IS* best!!! i loved eating the jerusalem artichokes tonight, munching away on the crunchiness... mmmmm.
i'm really just feelin' the love, feelin' full of gratitude for the many blessings i enjoy - my friends and family, the security i enjoy in my life, so much to be thankful for... gratitude is empowering!!

It's beginning to look a lot like...
We've had below normal temperatures (below freezing) the past several days... and snow! Probably 4" in all; apparently we're supposed to get another 2" overnight. The kids *LOVE* playing in the snow.
I'm trying to coordinate a community project to put up LED Christmas lights in the Golden Beola tree in the park adjacent to the community hall. It's getting there; I need to go out and locate another 5 (empty) strands as I have the lightbulbs, but no strands. I have 9 strands ready to go. The fire department has said they will place them on the tree, which is great.
Got our holiday letter copied today and re-reading it, it looks a bit like an "accomplishment" list, LMAO (if only you knew my parents, LOL)... I just laugh because the accomplishments or events of the past year are not the be-all-end-all, I know that what truly matters is the person we are developing into... are we living the values we say we hold dear? Are we cultivating compassion in our daily lives? How are our relationships, our interactions with others? How do we handle stress - are we reactive or centered during times of stress? These, to me, are the markers of... of... well, suffice to say I ought to write about this kinda stuff, the stuff that really matters in life, in the holiday letter, rather than a list of 'things that happened this year.' i'll put that on my to-do list for the new year ("let go of attachment to achievement"). ha ha ha
Have a great evening!

SUPER Sunday!
I had such a super Sunday! So awesome, so much that I'm grateful for! *bliss* I stayed up late last night watching a movie (Orgasmic Birth, in case you were wondering, and nooooooooooo, don't read between any lines there, LOL), and woke up early (6:45 on a Sunday morning?! Boooooo hissssssss)..... It is *COLD* here right now - okay, well, put it in perspective, Pacific Northwest coast.... so around freezing feels DAMN cold! After greeting the new day, the chickens and the cats, I lay in bed snuggling with dd... I decided to phone dh, who's off at work... and we had a really sweet conversation for about an hour. What a great way to start your day! :D
The woodstove kept going all night (I was sooooo pleased) and the new Ecofan works like a charm, blowing the warm air around the living room. Very nice.
Before getting out of bed (again), it started snowing! The kids were sooooooo excited, I cannot even begin to tell you! So after breakfast they were out there, making snow angels, clearing the car to make snowballs (thanks, kids, you're awesome helpers, clearing the car of snow!), watching the dog play in the snow. So much fun. Actually, what was hilarious was watching the chickens (who I'm sure thought the sky must've been falling) *eat* the snowflakes that fell in their pen. THAT was funny. ;)
I was so productive this morning, too - I finally got around to putting the sides of the little greenhouse down (I had the plastic rolled up for summer, lol), so hopefully this will extend harvesting the kale and raspberries and parsley (yes, it's nov 21st and i'm still eating fresh raspberries)... I got the last of the christmas lights up, too. That kinda thing.
One of our neighbours has been diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer and the local volunteer firefighters were having a benefit fund afternoon event at the hall, so we dropped off a donation and headed to town. The kids went to Grammy & Grampa's for the afternoon and I went to volunteer for tai chi for a couple hours, assisting people who are currently taking various beginner classes.
Then the kidlets and I went to a homeschooling potluck. SOOOOOOO much fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the adult conversation, that the kids had tons of other kids to play with, the awesome food (I picked up salad greens, and tossed an avocado and mango with some oil & fruit vinegar dressing, and voila, ca c'est tout)...
Came home, ordered dd a Maplelea doll for the holidays (www.maplelea.com) and am enjoying the glow of the christmas lights in at the window, and the heat of the woodstove. It was -3 at 9 p.m., so not sure exactly how cold it will get overnight.
And got the raw food bulk order all together to send off in the morning. So excited to have so many people interested and in on the orders the last little while. We have 50 people on the e-list and regularly are getting at least a dozen ordering each month (and a different dozen each month, which is awesome, too). I just love putting the order together each month!
All in all, a perfectly glorious day! Hope your sunday was equally pleasant!

nothing urgent to report. seriously.
the kids've been watching more little house on the prairie lately. i admit i find almanzo wilder (dean butler) cute. ya, you heard me. :P
i did 2.5 hrs of tai chi tuesday morning and paid for it wednesday with sore glutes. LOL that, and wednesday we did a round of disc golf, so were hiking through rough terrain. to make it more challenging, i decided to take the dog on leash, too.
i'm enjoying the black mica water drops i got. are they making a huge difference in my health? well, they came at just the right time as our water system was put on a boil water advisory. the water definitely tastes cleaner with the black mica.
well, really, that's about it. i haven't been getting enough sleep lately so i'm off to rejuvenate. :D

GLORIOUS sunshine!!!!
Explain that for me: how do we go from monsoon rains one day to the most glorious, beautiful autumn sunshine - 16C today! - overnight?!? Crazy. People surfing on every possible beach around here today. ***I'M NOT COMPLAINING!!!*** Today was absolutely beautiful. The high high clouds looked like paisley swirls painted on with a feather. It was warm, sunny, just gorgeous.
I taught tai chi today. The class is doing very well and I really enjoy instructing. This term should be over in another 5 weeks.
My son went with a group of homeschoolers on a hike out west today; he had lots of fun but lamented that as the only kid there without a parent, he had to carry his own backpack full of food - all the other kids had their parent pack their snack. LOL He said the backpack felt heavier as the hike went on, not lighter, despite having eaten the food inside. ha ha ha ha I *so* know that feeling. Still, he had a great time and spent a lovely afternoon in the fresh air and sunshine.
My daughter and I played paper dolls. I'd promised her I would when we were renovating their rooms, so I owed her an afternoon of paper dolls. We sorted all the clothes patterns out and made a red skirt for them. I'm sure now that it's all set up in her room we'll be churning out lots of clothes soon. The paper dolls have a clothing store, accessory store and shoe store to shop in. Soon they will have a house (complete with wallpaper, lol) and backdrops for photo shoots. too funny. I should post pictures of Izzy & Lulu and their friends.
I've really been thinking today about my food intake and how unbalanced I am right now. I'm really struggling on so many levels. I read an article today about how the author felt the key to longevity is to eat less. I agree that for me, I am still overeating, even on raw food. I still have such emotional attachments and struggles with food. I struggle to remember that the food will still be there; I don't need to eat *all* the ________ right this second. Aaarghh. Anyways, ya, I'm really feeling like I could use a food addictions counsellor on this one.
I really need to get excited about exercising. I'm just... not. I'd love to set a goal like "triathlon" or "run a marathon" and actually do it. I'm really noticing the effects of a lack of exercise on my physical body. I'm probably being pretty harsh on myself, true, but still, I would really LIKE to be more excited about exercising, rather than it be something I dread (and procrastinate about). LOL
Enough of the pity party!!! I've got one life to live and this is IT, people!!!! :D There is no moment like this moment. Let's DO IT!!!!

november rain
that song has come on the radio every day the past week, i swear. is it guns 'n' roses? i don't even know. the funny thing is that it hasn't been raining lately... until today. buckets and BUCKETS of rain as we drove home tonight. weird, eh. (not really, it *is* november on the west coast, after all, LOL)
i have to say i am *LOVING* the vegan oil blend from Barleans. I've been taking it daily for almost a month, I guess. One thing I'm noticing is my nails are soooooo strong and growing nicely. I've *NEVER* had nails to ooh and ahh over. As a kid, I played piano and always had to keep them trimmed. And as an adult, I do too much physical labour around the homestead (chopping firewood does not go well with manicured nails) to worry about my nails. So this recent growth is rather exciting (apparently it's the primrose oil in the blend that assists nail growth). What if they get strong enough to withstand the physical labour?!? Wouldn't that be interesting?! So I'm looking online tonight to source the Barlean's cheaper than I get it at the health food store ($43 for a 16 oz bottle).
other than that, another lovely raw food order has come and gone for October.
(oops, I just remembered I have to send someone an email. NOW. hold on...)
okee dokey. got that done. PHEW. Sometimes I swear I'm like one of those people who balance spinning plates on straws... that, and being such an Aquarian I tend to be all over the place, mentally.
I read my horoscope today that said to the effect that I should use this new moon to document in detail where I want my life to go in the next 10 yrs. which was very interesting. i like doing that, and i don't honestly do it often. i just have soooooo many varied interests, it's really hard to know where they're going to take me, or more precisely, where i'm going to take them, LOL.
anyways it's late and i just wanted to say, "Hey!". I'm here, I'm doin' well. No, I'm not juicing right now. I'm going to come back to it, though, because I sure felt better while juicing. Clearer mentally, lighter physically. I'm reading Gabriel Cousens' Conscious Eating right now. At over 800 pages, it's quite the tome, but very VERY interesting and important to my growth and journey, this I know. So let's just see where this goes...
Blessings to you this glorious day!
