allow my new project to simmer, steep and settle into my bones

Yes, I said it!

I love me and my life truly, madly and deeply.

I just wrote up some stuff about this program…. it was ready to be born so I wrote up the birth announcement on my blog and am ready to fly!

It is about the most fun, soulful sales letter I have ever written.

Bring it on, fabulous life.

:-)

It feels so darn good! Another goal, marked DONE!

I announced a new class today, a different project than this one, because I felt so compelled to teach writing again.

I wanted to start with writing because my heart is there so much… I just had the feeling that something about writing, something I hadn’t done yet, was the place to start my adventure back into teaching and coaching.

And dontcha know it – I announced my new class earlier today and I already have two students, new students, not returnees – which is REALLY exciting. I LOVE my returning students. I hope I will have a few of them in the class, too – but something about brand new people to create with just delights me to no end.

Let’s see, how many times can I cry in a day? Joyful tears today, all day long. Breakthrough tears, all day long!

Wow.

I will announce this program in a couple weeks now. I am good to go on it, but will wait… one thing at a time. Simmer, steep, settle. Simmer, steep, settle…

And rejoice, with gratitude.

I just uploaded an audio reflection… a guided “Creative Intentioning” exercise for new subscribers of Daily Passion Activator….

A part of my new project includes getting the word out to as many folks as possible and building my ezine, Daily Passion Activator is a part of that.

The audio I recorded and uploaded is a gift…. a thank you…. a bonus… and it is also an introduction to me in a different way… another way for people to know me.

A lot of people who become my coaching clients and teleclass and ecourse students do so because they feel connected to me… so I basically created yet another way for people to experience me through this audio.

I am excited because this is part of what I love to do the most, creating new methods of connection… and I adore my ezine… and I love new beginnings, like the new year so…

YAY!

I’m excited!

paypal “pay here” button. This is a big step. LOL.

and will go away from the keyboard to fill in more of the blanks.

Watch for more complete details soon…

It is amazing how happy this makes me feel…..

the steeping is about to start taking form.

I was looking at them, these photos I took this weekend, and I thought, “These sort of chronicle my love affair with Bakersfield.”

The photo below got a Flicr award:

and so did this photo:

My family life shots from the weekend:

Emma in her happy bunny hoodie:

Lightning McQueen, Santa and everyone is happy….

Yes. Good times.

and my final self portrait from the weekend:

As I continue to steep and settle.

How perfect is that?

Very!

and it feels good.

Wow. I am exhausted from my last soulful exercise. I need a hug and I need some nutrition. Sam wants to go to Lowe’s.

We’ll see what happens next.

Hank and I went for a walk this morning when we had a sliver of time when Sam went out shopping with one of our friends.

I had just finished writing today’s DPA about how I missed my regular, daily walks. I thought we were going to go to the bluffs but Hank wanted to go in a different direction.

I was going to bring my camera because Hank has a friend on Flickr named Charley Lhasa and I wanted to get some more Hank photos for Charley to enjoy, but my camera wasn’t where I expected it to be so off we went sans Sam, sans camera and as always happens, space opened up.

When we got home, Sam was home, with friend, and they were busily installing a new mouse onto this back computer (the one Emma uses, primarily) and I decided to go back out WITH my camera and get some shots of one of my favorite trees in the neighborhood.

Off I went… and I felt the heartbeat of my new project.

I am excited.

I will write about its simmering here, but not its specifics. You know how pregnancies are, only the Mom is able to “see” the baby inside her. All YOU see is the growing girth and the occasional moving lump inside.

So – I am excited.

I just saw the PLUS side on the “Project Home Pregnancy Test”!
