It is Monday. The tea is brewed. The rent is paid. The moon is full. And.. I am tired. That is not necessarily new or good but it is and it is ok. I am not feeling the new and good vibes today but there is no doom or gloom. I just feel quiet. As an introvert I have to say that this project is hard sometimes in the sense that I don’t necessarily have the energy to share anything with anyone, but I am the one who set up the parameters and I want to follow through on my goal of 365 posts in 365 days. I wanted something that would get me writing beyond my journal every day and eating regularly.. because I really wasn’t. The eating is no longer the issue but sometimes I struggle to write everyday. I am doing my best to stick with it. My friend Nimai called as I was sitting down At my computer this morning.. She wanted a little bit of advice and in the end I think she helped me more than I helped her. We talked about convection ovens, authenticity, discipline and how being just ok is ok. Funny how we all need that reminder from time to time. I know I said I wasn’t feeling the new and good vibes but… Nimai is taking a new big step with her business today. Maybe the newest and goodest of things would be to support her by ordering some amazing vegan cookies from Nimai’s Kitchen. They are made right here in Austin with love by Nimai herself. She and I worked together at a recovery center back in the day. I was a chef and she was a therapist. Her energy was always welcome in my kitchen. She showed up with hugs and wanting to taste test everything, which I love. Funny story when I met her I didn’t realize that she had been in one of my favorite bands, Prince Rama. She is lovely and talented human and I am really glad she called. Now to ride my bike, jam some Prince Rama and get some cookies in the mail. Have a beautiful day. Feel whatever you feel. Have a cookie.
