kind of floating

i worked away and came home with some Energy…interesting….so i Re-went through the two containers of clothes to take mixed with stuff to take.  Took out some stuff for NOT taking.  but looked at a few things that were to take but needed work.  One of which,  this shirt

Linen.  i can't deal with collars.  so the collar had been cut off,  i can't remember when and it got stuffed away because i don't really wear any "Clothes" here any more.  I wear,  this summer,  nothing,  while in the house.  When Out,  i have the eyelet blouse and one of two pairs of cut off pants…very light weight,  the brand is Cshells,  New Zealand….from Nelia's discards.  When i am off to Work Away or to town,  i wear a Tshirt.  There are 3.

but i have lost all interest in clothes.

thinking, tho,  that when i am no longer here,  but in the midst of a different world,  i might want to wear other things…like in the old days….sort of.  When i move through the Hill,  when i might take the kids to school,  when i will go to the Farmer's Market in Chico,  i think i might want to wear some Things.  

the neckline is stitched,  almost.  and i can put it back,  pack it away,  ready.

    Measured preparation. Mindful disengagement. It feels so strongly that the delay in leaving is actually allowing for the right level of power and mindfulness. too feel it all as it unwinds and re-aligns.
    Think it’s marvelous you’re doing a fair amount of it in your altogether. Crone power !!!!!!!!!

    I think about clothes when I go somewhere (zen sits across town, museums uptown, Tibet house and the Rubin down and West, my writing group Downtown east. Trader Joe in three different locations) but I have a costume of sorts-a few standard items-that I just wash and repeat and wash and repeat, my shell earrings, a summer hat, and sketcher shoes. This despite a closet and t and plastic tubs chock full of alternative visions. Mostly I hang around in an undershirt and a wrap thing at home. I’m home a lot and feeling good watching you ready yourself for the big move in a thousand ways.

    Sometimes we need other energies when our own are depleted. Blissful not to have to think about clothes, although there are things I love.

    it’s it, that i never really go Somewhere in my life now.
    so it just doesn’t matter.
    imagining going Somewhere, and, in the company of others…..
