Safe to Shore


Hail to you,

I am so sure that my Gram is laughing her ass off in heaven watching me run like a chicken with its head cut off…lol…it is nice to see you; sorry I have not had time to call lately…yes, it has been hella busy- so much freakin paperwork to do and everyone wants it yesterday…IRS, state, Patent, etc…

Massage has been a relief…a few clients I had not seen for a while stopped in…it was nice to catch up…Dale and I have the office cleaned and files refreshed…I am still debating about my license…this job has really meant the world to me…this is going to be difficult…I know the economically sound thing is to close…it is tearing at me…August is the deadline...

American Boudica is moving at a snail’s pace as Chris and I are forced to revert to such primitive hook up as Dongle- we cannot Skype even…maybe it will be fixed soon, it is slowing our third book…We will soon be releasing a web show on the paddle…Taylor has started production…so groovy…we were lucky enough to get another Go Pro for the Sun Ray Paddle and the footage around the paddle…deep breath, we can get this done…

In school I am in Accounting and Sales…2 classes that I am glad I am taking (as it is info I will one day need), but are so boring…at least I have really interesting teachers…finals this week in both classes…fingers crossed

My teaching certification is being held up due to transcript from Sanford Brown not being able to be obtained yet…it will happen soon…I just hate to wait…this day in computers it is quite frustrating…

N. P. E. is almost complete with filing for a patent on the HydroQueen…damb can you say freakin paperwork…maybe not, but I can…I also had to file minutes for the state, which I had never done before…Living la Vida loco…lol

 
In the Circle of Boudica…life is good as we approach Beltane at a lively run…trying to get everything accomplished before the fire…this year only good thoughts and life to be celebrated…for should not each of us celebrate life and all the wonders it holds…it will be the start of summer here in Florida
 
 

The menu and work outs have begun as the countdown has begun for the April 20, launch of The Sunshine Paddle…I feel strong enough to handle this, now both mentally and physically…we will now be meeting at Atonement Lutheran Church on the first and third Thursday of the month…from now until we launch…I will be paddling the Pasco coast again and soon to go see Lance in Siesta Key…we have now added a mailing list to our website- don’t forget to sign up




We have finally started getting some much needed rain…the blooms coming up everywhere are simply lovely…composting not only gives you better blooms, but also stronger plants…it does take longer, but lasts longer also…also note it is less trash to dump in a landfills…

Many different children’s organizations (churches, schools, scouts, etc…) are collecting paper and aluminum as a way to raise money…I mention this as I know many areas now charge for trash….this way you help kids and make fewer trips to the dump…the children are raised with respect for the planet…talk about a home run…

Well Sweetie, I wish I had more time…yes, I promise to make time to sit with you soon…brunch next week…I will make time…thank you for understanding:)
Love Ya,
D

In a Liquid State of Mind


 
Hail and Good Day to You,
 

I am happy you have made time to stop and hang out…life has been busy, but good…I am sorry for not having time to stop sooner…let me fill you in on all that is happening...

Though I do love massage as we have spoke of previously, I will be shutting down…I feel at this time it is the right thing to do…Dale and I have started to close files…this has been hard- you see, I remember every massage I have ever given and these records touch that nerve…it leaves me sad, but looking ahead to what will come next…

Okay Rotherham Town Counsel…how freakin hard could it be to get phones up in an area that has bloody well been without for more than 3 months…it is not rocket science it is getting utilities running…Chris and I are trying to get work done, but his phones and internet have been down for quite some time…we are working on Book 3 and Chris is teaching me a new photo program, but as you can tell it is not going easy

School is way cool…I was so happy to go to the Boca Campus…it was huge and beautiful…it has been magical, all of the work was worth it- this was a dream I never thought I had a shot at…still working toward my master’s degree…Dreams can come true- just work for it…

I have applied for my teaching certification…it is my intention to get on at the children’s jail or may teach online…regular and focused…this will give me the ability to attain my other goals…fingers crossed
 
 
 

Nature’s Power and Energy has been busy with admin work- taxes are in, minutes to the yearly meeting have been entered…we have restructured to streamlined to work with a manufacturer…this should be a win for the county on several levels…the patent should be in by the end of the moth…cool baby
 
 
 
In the Circle of Boudica, we are excited as Beltane is close…I will have a fire this year…I am so excited…I plan on a BBQ type feast…I am trying to locate chairs and tables…please inbox me if you will be attending…
 
 
 

The Sunshine Paddle 2014 countdown has begun…workouts and menu in place…we just completed the Sun Ray Paddle…Samantha joined me…this was her first distance paddle…we made it just over 7 miles in 4 hours before her arms gave out…I was very proud of her…her determination was quite impressive…we got to meet 2 different dolphin pods…we saw sea turtles…AWESOME paddle...I can hardly wait until Taylor is done putting together the video:)
 

 
 
The flowers have been of deep hue this year…it must be due to the VERY mild winter we have been having…Dad has been running around keeping up with them and it shows…he has done a good job
 
 
 
 

 

Blessed Be,

D
