abundance We somehow managed to leave our christmas decorations up so long that the tree was very dead. at first, it was on purpose as We decided, that the tree was pretty & we could leave it up a little longer. Then, we ran out of time to even take it down… and it became an official fire hazard as well as a duty we had both been dreading.
I suggested we have a “Valentine’s Day Un-Decorate Dance Party” – combining fun with something that needed to be done. So, after a delicious dinner of Spanish-style Snapper & Edamame, a bottle of wine & lime-aide mimosas, we went to town on those xmas decorations – dancing to our hearts content. (geek side note: meanwhile, we’re trying to setup AirPort Express to be an AirTunes… which, we should have read the directions because it was really easy after we wasted 2 hours to find the control panel that turned the AirTunes function on! But once it works, its awesome, iTunes plays to 2 separate sets of speakers wirelessly!!!)
So, for the LIFE OF ME (and Ian), we couldn’t figure out what in the world we did last valentine’s day… Ian remembers having to work out of town, but I couldn’t remember what we did to celebrate. I knew we did something…
this is yet another time i have to say THANK YOU BLOG
The whole time we’re boogying, I have a memory of dancing to the Talking Heads song “Girlfriend is Better” with Ian and having a super epiphany at some New College party. Which, of course, was last year’s V-Day PCP & happened to be an awesome time for me. (thanks, blog)
The blog also clued me in to a funk I was in around the same time for 2 years ago. I must say that I was in the same exact funk but amplified this year. The transition + post-holiday blues + apparently normal funk = a lot of suck. However, my trip to Florida seems to have lifted my spirits….
All of these revelations are more reasons why I am making more effort to blog these days. I feel off the bandwagon after I moved from Sarasota, time to get back on.
Oh, and, i have the CUTEST boyfriend ever: My Valentine’s Day Present from Ian

abundance before i left to visit Sarasota, I adorned the house with love notes to help keep Ian company while i wa gone. I know how lonely an empty house can get. Well, since i’ve returned, i’ve really enjoyed reading my own notes. they bring a big smile to my face and they aren’t even “to me.”
So, this lead me to an idea that my yoga teacher in Sarasota uses. She has some affirmations posted around her house. So, last night i made a word document with a table & filled it with things that would help put that smile on our faces & that will help hold our intentions for a brighter future.
it’s ridiculously cute.

abundance Put your order into the universe & watch what comes your way. Have faith and it will be.
The universe, our wants & desires all exist in the power of intention and positive thinking.
This weekend was proof of this for me. I wanted fun. I needed a place to go dancing. I have been eagerly searching for awesome, nice, FUN people to hang out with. Through a series of serendipitous events, I found all of these things & more. the tools are laid out for me now & provided I continue on, I will get exactly what I asked for. life seriously rocks.
let’s go dancing!

abundance how easy it is to lose connection, to yourself, to your loved one, to the earth. just trying to get by & to make it work sometimes requires a numbness to what is. but when it is time to get reconnected, its not like getting on a bike… because this bike changes, its not the same as it always has been, it is dynamic.
today i fly “home” – hopefully will find some grounding – hopefully making my the connections i need a little easier to find when i come home.
Leo Full Moon is tomorrow
This full moon is alive with every idea and every solution necessary for the enlightenment of our societies, the creation of a world that serves and expresses the potential of our divine humanness.
“I seek myself through humanity” is the Aquarian message. Each of us is called to liberate our consciousness, to act wisely in our every action and to impact our brothers and sisters with our love and wisdom.

abundance oddly enough, the last 18 months i lived in sarasota, i considered myself to have no “home” – no place that was mine, i didn’t rent or own. i kinda wandered around like a gypsy. stuff living in storage. only having what i needed to live.
ever since i left, i keep referring to sarasota as “back home”
and I can’t wait until wednesday comes & I board a plane to visit the entire town that is my home.
