Jumping around projects. Friday… obstruction is refusal, and I am refusing that refusing the refusal. Consolidating, no new journals, projects, sketches, nothing. Taking the job not just seriously, but with a seriousness that I’ve never demonstrated before. What the moment teaches me… go slower. Time is quick, but you don’t have to be. The column,…

And….
And, what? Drawing circles in the journal, waiting, for some push. Something from the Story itself, to move me. Raining outside, someone playing one of those infernal pinball machines, with all the metallic clunky bang/chong/RING sounds… ugh. Going back to the desk in a bit. ….. Coffee leaving it all up to me. Okay…. How…
On creative…
Just notes…
Realize
Materialize.
Coffee. Journal. Love.
Gratitude. Grateful for one element, then twelve. How it has to be. Eternally. And, poetically. This, the rewritten ME.

After the meeting with S, I’m wanting to keep data. On literally everything. Collect as much information as I can, and not think twice or at all about it. Money spent so far today, $0. This is consistent with the day’s aim, and putting aside funds for projects, and more travel. After Paris, the Nurse…
from I Just DECIDED to STOP
No doubt, only gratitude. The Now, where I am. I still stop and stumble a bit in my thinking, like – “IS THIS MY LIFE? AM I SUPPOSED TO HAVE THIS?” Why do I question? I am not waiting to feel ready anymore. EVERYTHING, will see heights. My own highway, if you would. I’m not…
CHANGE
Day closing but I’m not slowing. Writing any thought feeling dream fantasy worry or possibility that comes to this writer. Writing everything, literally everything. Thinking of a class of SB, then I’ll acquire that. 36 DAYS…. Consolidating journals. Counted how many active ones I have going and.. no. That has to change. It’s just me…..
After some time away from the desk, I lack energy.
I talk myself back into being ALIVE as I said earlier, with the early morning espresso-lit liveliness by, yes, making espresso. Back from trip to downstairs coffee bar, focused on my energy and writing to write, making sense later. Fasting till, well, some point in evening. 36 days…. Kids arriving tomorrow, can’t wait to see…
8/26/2026
Teaching day. Students have surprised me, in the best way. #coffeezenlove officially in its flight… the aims are high. So, something every day. No time today for a run, and now it is ever more necessary to run in the morning. Without any excuse, delay, obstruction, interruption, disruption. Alarm, rise, run. Has to be just…
Spirit is tangled. Odd feeling, or perception. Can’t place or categorize, but communicating what I feel.
So… how I deal, WRITE. Anything coming to mind. Some frustrations with work, others elsewhere, and some energies that just won’t quiet no matter what words you offer. So – MINDFUL. Be present, thank the Universe for where you are… Taking camera into Sonoma County today. Picking up wine at Taryn’s, the a couple cases…
