I'm super happy to be spending the day in Burlington Vermont.

I make it a point to spend one day (at least) each season really being super mindful of that particular season. A summer day at the beach, getting really invested in the day. A spring walk focusing on the tiny sprouts coming up. A walk through crunching snow.

Tomorrow is my purposeful autumn day, and I can't wait.

Screw the Mormons. I'll feel the spirit more tomorrow than most of them will in cult class.

My husband is gone into the wilderness to play hunter guy.

I'm going shopping to play gather girl.

See, the old ways still work.

Taking my son out to breakfast (he's 21, and we make "dates" to get together so I can find out what's up in his life!); painting the bathroom and working. Have to 'cuz I took last weekend off for anniversary trip with the hubby. Which was awesome, btw.

Nascar in Charlotte NC...

Everyday is pretty much the same for me now. Thank goodness the computer has the day listed or I would lose track! :-)

I spend the majority of my time, now that I love alone, doing what I want, what I like and what needs to be done. I have a couple of projects; my Grief Therapy that I devote some time to a few times a week. I have been writing short articles on my experience every few months. I will also be finishing up the hand cut, hand made greeting cards in a few months which are gifts to family and friends.

I have never lived in such a stress-free, comfortable, content state in my life! I'm grateful that I am comfortable in my own skin! It's a new kind of freedom. It seems like a reward some days! :-)

Isn't Sunday a great day now? Swear to god it used to be my most dreaded hated day and now it is my bestest one!

For me? Yes. It was stressful. I always had to be there early, we had a bunch of kids (some didn't want to go but too young to leave home alone), only one car... etc.

Church activity was very stressful- so glad I left it many years ago!

Making my very first torte for breakfast/brunch, Garlic plumped chicken for dinner, and breathlessly awaiting The Walking Dead season premiere. Maybe another mosaic to pass the time.

I'm going to be running a half-marathon.

My first one ever.

Beats sitting through SM...

Run in the morning. It's going to be drizzly again.

Then will probably cook something. I've been wanting to make Chik'n a la king for awhile, or possibly veggie soup.

Clean the house--well, I tell myself I will, anyway.

Finish the Buddhism powerpoint for the comparative religions class I'm teaching.

I will be trying to pack more boxes. I hate every minute of it. I don't want to move or make these decisions now. I want to have time to mourn, to breath. Time to get the tears out. But I have to find a storage unit, decide what to put there, decide who I am now that Dad is gone and I don't get to take care of him any more. I miss him so very much. Spend Sunday alone and sad, trying to heal, trying to move on, praying for comfort, wondering who I'm praying to.

Sleeping 'til noon, making a big breakfast with some bacon, potatoes, and eggs from the Amish market. I'm taking some vacation this week, and have a vintage Singer sewing machine as my project to be cleaned and refurbished. Wish me luck.

The usual. Shopping, football, beer ... maybe attend Mass. I need a really, really laid back day after the week I've had. By Monday, I should be ready to post about it. :)

And working on maternity clothes. Playing with the girls of course. Going to do some pics of them in their Halloween outfits. And I just got my sumac so I want to try to make this:

NFL, beer, sex, and food. In no particular order.
