How I did it
How to get my boat in the water
It took me
3 years
It made me

How I did it: Focus is the only thing that will get you through. You also can't allow your wish list to blossom in the middle of the project. Once you turn the corner from "tearing apart" to "putting back together", your project list needs to remain stagnant. Read how I did it…

touch and be touched (read all 3 entries…)
Folks Agree 2 weeks ago

Your body needs to be held and to hold, to be touched and to touch. None of these needs is to be despised, denied, or repressed. But you have to keep searching for your body’s deeper need, the need for genuine love. Every time you are able to go beyond the body’s superficial desires for love, you are bringing your body home and moving toward integration and unity.

Be there...Burning Man 2009...for a 43Things Convergence!
It's set 3 weeks ago

I am now associated with a camp. I will be camping with Camp Contact which will be associated with the HeeBeeGeeBee Healers in Nectar Village.

Come by and say “Hi” or book a massage over at the healers’. I’ll post more info here when I know which coordinates we’ll be occupying. I’ll also be sure to put myself in the electronic directory at the front gate.

See you all there

get my boat in the water (read all 2 entries…)
Done, Done, Done 1 month ago

I should have marked this one done a couple years ago. Two years ago this June I:

1. Hauled the Boat to Oxnard for a test sail
2. Hauled it up to Bellingham, WA and sailed all the little islands on the inland side of Vancouver Island for 3 months
3. Hauled it back to Oxnard and set sail for Mexico
4. Sailed the Sea of Cortez for 4 months.
5. Drove to Mexico to pick the boat up out of Sonora and hauled it back to Oxnard
6. S/V Nausicaa is now at home in a slip in Channel Islands harbor eagerly awaiting trips to the islands

Done!
