How I did it
How to create a sacred space
It took me
5 days
It made me
fulfilled

How I did it: I gave up on using my “secret underground lair” for a sacred space/altar since it would have meant going into the basement far more than I’d prefer and cleaning out old paint cans. So I realized I was not using well the closet in that art room. Turned an old wardrobe around to separate the space from the rest of the room, found an old carpet that providentially had the zodiac printed on it, built 3 small altars (to Evolution… Read how I did it…

How to find a home for my hats
It took me
10 days
It made me
swell

How I did it: after emptying an antique piece of furniture that doubles as a closet, I saw a perfect space that would fit all the odd hats I've acquired over the years. They'd been flying around the house earlier, and since some are vintage and kind of nice, this was sad. Now, they all belong somewhere! Read how I did it…

How to have a brain
It took me
2 weeks
It made me
eee

How I did it: for the 70th anniversary of the Wizard of Oz we actually got to see it on the Big Screen which I don't think I'd EVER had a chance to beforeit was heartening to note that the Straw Man was, in the end, the smartest one of the bunch - from the very get-go, even as he yearned for Heightened cerebral powers, he was displaying his above average reasoning and discerning skills.so maybe the moral of the story is we're always smarter than we thi… Read how I did it…

25 tips to quitting smoking

very intereesting

it’s funny cuz I’ve found that I don’t really CRAVE cigarettes when I don’t smoke. It’s just that I don’t like what happens to my body/mind after I’ve not smoked for a while.

I would have to find a way to deal with that b4 quitting again.

Mark and celebrate every full moon this year
eclipse tonight

lunar eclipse. If you haven’t ever seen such a thing, I recommend you make a point to go out there and witness it.

dethrone Entropy, my current lord and master
for some reason

am hating my life right now and dont’ know what to do about it

too much chaos too much out of control stuff too much indecision too much stuff out of reach

if there were just ONE THING i could do today to get a feeling of CONTROL, if nothing else, that would be sthg

i suppose no choice but the work backlog lame and tedious and odious though it is

how nice it would be to find a better job or what have you but a sense that i don’t have the qualifications and I wouldnt be any better at it than I am at the BS now

so I’ll just do THE ONE THING I know I need to do now and leave it at that, too bad about negative emotions.
