The Deva   of the Wild and the Domestic.   

or,  the domestically wild and the wildly domestic.  Lizards and Goats.  The desert Place,  it was Lizards and Goats.  Here it is the same but so much more.  There are Lizards at every turn.  6 kinds so far.  But none of those blue tailed Sisters.

this Cloth,  like all the others in the last few days,  is not Finished.  The young Goat,  not sewn In.    The Lizard,  barely there and without a finished foot.  Sometime i will finish it and know whether to add,  "from here".  Today,  as i looked,  i had the thought to add a Madia.  A large Cloth,  14 X45.
Tomorrow,  IT begins.  The Visit.  My son,  his woman,  their 5 year old child who i have met twice.  On the weekend,  my children's father who has rented an air b and b a mile away.   We have no idea how much time they will spend on the Hill.  or choose the BnB?    Many question marks float above.   As with many families,  there is complexity.  I spend time centering my Self.  Grounding.   This One above hovers,  at my side.  in between the trees.

 

as i went to feed and give water to the Bucks,   Wendy,  Whose "papered" name is Amazing Grace,  Who i've called Wendy,  who they call now,  Amazing,   Who i compromise by calling Amazing Wendy,  anyway….she was at Sunny Ray's gate,  her back to it,  tail flagging,   Sunny Ray was noticing,  saying his buck things,  though it's been a longtime.    November is when we willl breed.  So,  i marked it on the calendar.  

And an AMAZINGLY WONDER FULL thing occured,  today   AVAAZ   was in court to counter a subpoena  by 

MONSANTO

and WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh HooRAY for the People,  oh, just so much EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee  and great Joy!!!!!!!!!

please go to Avaaz.org and read and add your name,  your VOICE.

    Yes, navigating family complexity can have its moments so my blessing for you as you go about these family days is that you are able to have some special times with Alluvial Fan, aka Giana Lily as she discovers your new home…

    When my in-laws would make their yearly visit, my MIL would send a copy of the calendar, of all the exact times they were visiting who…or would that be ‘whom’? And where they were going for coffee, or dinner… Good thing we knew when they were going to Yakima to get fruit and veggies…not sure I could get thru the visit not knowing that!
    Some like to be organized. Me? I don’t care to entertain, so am not “good” at it. Am glad when our hour is over!

    I don’t mind visiting people in their space. It’s all foreign. None of it has anything to do with me.
    But in my space–it has everything to do with me.
