Cleaning the bookshelves, i found this.  Had forgotten all about it.  It was from when daughter and i were on a roll.  When she had convinced me to move to California.  Before her job fell through and we hauled all the Goats back here.  So…4 years ago.  

This computer can't play a DVD.  Travis just came and left.  We ordered the thing that will allow it.  But for now,  me and you can google this and there are UTubes.  I watched a couple and a Ted talk.  and this morning i was totally ENERGIZED.  i CAN do this.  Down the road on the way to Lemitar about 4 miles is a piece of land with piles of junk tires.  In the other direction is a metal salvage place with a couple acres of metal…from doors of vehicles,  swamp coolers,  appliances.  There is dirt here.  I could put up some notices and collect bottles,  plastic and glass.  There is the New Mexico Tech college in town with an engineering program filled with nerdy students.  I have land.  Soon, hopefully, will have a little More land.  I can DO this.  I really Can.   All it takes is the Will.  Do i have it?  All the on and off conversation about Use…THIS is Use.  Do i have the will?????

Praying Mantis have been in the wind…just sent that Cloth, yesterday to Michigan…thinking much of them,  how they are,  how they make me FEEL.  Went out this morning to do the Goat thing,  feeding first and then water and

    longer

    the co-op has been going since 1974, I thought this was a worldwide phenomenon… I gather not… have been thinking a lot about how there is now app 7.4 billion people on our planet, if we could just make the paradigm shift away from the need for greed to each and everyone of us all caring for our beautiful earth…

    this Garbage Warrior builds homes. Michael Reynolds. He’s
    the one who built the EarthShips near Taos, NM years ago.
    He’s still at it.
    i think we have become wired for greed. Excess of stuff
    is generally accepted as entitled necessity.
