manifesting.

see the magic.

it's not so hard...

we forget sometimes

or i do

that it's not supposed to be a battle

that it's supposed to be easy

even fun

and that i can share myself with you

lean on you even,

whenever i need to.

gentle reminders

and great bear hugs

help me to stop clawing

and scratching

and to rest my weight on you.

journals from italy

having the days to sit by the sea and create...

the evenings spent with friends laughing, eating, drinking...

when i first came home, i was so ready to be here. and now...i just want my days free again.

italiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

wow.

i have been non-stop doing for the last 3 weeks....

a trip to ITALY!!! with my dearest friends kate and enrico!!!

above are some of the journal entries i did while there...along with the sweetest little girl in the world, ludovica, who was oh so happy to help get messy with the coloring. she would tell me colors in italian and i would tell her in english.

i have SO many pictures that enrico is burning on a cd for us! i cannot wait to take the time to go through each and every one.

the 2 weeks there were amazing. i feel like they are just swimming all around in my head and my heart so that when the time is right i will spill more about it.

Am Jam 2008

a much needed weekend at deerfields has me struggling to jump back into the real world...

there was so much amazing music. love. art. people. lake swimming.

the panties above are my first run for sweet cheeks...

the pottery is my roomies...

being around such sweet souls that understand what is important in this life refreshes me and gives me hope.
