My Impoverished Artist

He said it was a Vata imbalance. I thought I had a Pitta dosha. Well, apparently, you can have one dominant constitution but still have an imbalance from a secondary one. When I looked up the characteristics of a Vata person, I read that these are the artistic, wired types. So that’s it! My artist is impoverished! She needs a diet of creativity, word smithing, and believing in that big dream of hers. She’s sickly because she does not feed upon the proper nutrition which is daily writing. She’s been looking for her manna, and her owner is not giving it to her. Her owner tends to operate from the right brain hemisphere where everything works according to a formula. But the artist can tell her that has never worked for her in the past. She operates better when she uses her child like eagerness to dance in fields of tall dandelions and create from her playfulness. There’s no order to things as well as no “shoulds” that line up what she “should” be doing. There’s an open field where she longs to roam and if she lets her dance, she might find her energy again.

A Very Productive Day

This is the best day I’ve had in a long time productivity wise! Limiting time on the computer has really helped. I vowed that I would not open my browser until lunch and not again till after 5. I only have five things left on my list. All the hard stuff is out of the way. I need to do push-ups, throw the ball for the dogs, meditate and pack! That’s it! I’ve managed to run on the boardwalk, shower, do two loads of laundry, vacuum, clean kitchen, clean bathrooms, practice voice, send out resumes, file my weekly job search with VEC, get more boxes and that’s about it! I am going to make that rule from here on out. I find that once I start looking on the Internet, one thing leads to another. I’ll Google, looks at books, blogs, insidecarolina.com, you name it. I did allow myself to check Outlook but I did not respond to any listservs or read any newsletters. I responded to two girlfriends about lunch plans tomorrow.

It’s a wonderful day with the breeze blowing through the open windows. I have XM playing club dance music now. I have 10 pre-sets for mellow music and 10 pre-sets for more upbeat music. I listen to mellow before 10 and upbeat after 10. I change the channel each day depending on the day of the month. Since today is the 28th, I am listening to my 8th pre-set which is dance music. Is this anal? LOL!

Okay, it’s 2:30. The dogs tore up one of my Abraham-Hicks quote that was sitting on the printer. I have a few more things to do to finish my list. I had really hoped to ride my bike down to the oceanfront Mahi-Mah’s and get some 35 cent oysters and wash them down with a cool glass of Sauvignon Blanc. I would like to do that before I leave. Maybe I can either Thursday or Saturday. Until then, I’ll just dream about it.

Books I'll Write One Day

Good morning! It’s another wonderful day with a good night’s sleep. Bacon is frying at a slow simmer. Dogs have been fed and let outside. Today is chore day and I vow to myself that I will have tackled 50% of my list before noon. So I am trying something different today. I am limiting myself to the computer. Once in the morning to check email and send out resumes. 30 minutes at lunch time to finish office time. And then anytime after 5 as long as I have chores done. Do you think that will work? I actually have an email flybuddy where we email each other and commit to our daily routine! Isn’t that sort of like two alcoholics meeting in a bar to give each other support? LOL!

I do love writing and really need to explore this more in my journal. I’ve always had this fantasy that after I become a rock star I’ll write several books. Want to hear the titles of them?

Making Your Dreams Come True No Matter What Your Age
How to Get Anything You Want
Food Fit for Royalty: Cooking Gluten and Dairy Free
How to Make Your God Fit Into Your Life
How to Be Truly Happy
How to Have the Relationship of Your Dreams

You are probably laughing by now wondering okay if you are so great, how come you haven’t achieved any of these things? LOL. Well, I am laughing with you, believe me.

One of my girlfriends sent me an email yesterday and said a wise woman kept referring to one of her friends as cocky and able to get anything she wanted. She said that has to be me! Well, I guess I can occasionally be cocky. I told her she fit into that mode as well. Was that a compliment? Hmmmm….

Are you laughing at the relationship one?

I hope the bacon is not burning. Today Show is coming on. Seems like Swine Flu is spreading.
