Stomp performer at Dover middle school

Ben and I are headed down to DOVER oh to photograph the Stomp performer as he presents his rhythm there. We were invited by our friend Steve who is a teacher there. Ben has become quite a photographer and is loving going places as long as he has a camera in front of him!

I just did an blog entry and TypePad ate it. Ditto with a comment.

I REALLY want a blog to work.

I completely forgot I had this blog. Weird.

What's your top New Year's resolution this year?

Don't be sad it did not happen the way you wanted.
Be glad it happened at all.

I've been emotionally "balanced" since Oct - but today I woke up tearful and depressed. I worked out much of my anxiety talking to Ben and I'm better now. I think it was the shock of being back in an old pattern. ugh

Time to embrace winter

It's not really "cold" outside, but the landscape had given in to winter. Leaves are mostly fallen. Planting beds need to be trimmed back. Funiture needs to be covered or stored.

I'm amazed how fast this year has passed.

I'm changing along with the seasons. My life has taken on a comfortable hum. I came here wanting to create California in Ohio. I found peace in accepting Ohio and myself at face value.

Halloween fun!

We had our first Halloween OHIO party last weekend.
It was a success!   I was a very VERY old cougar - complete with bling, large hat, cane, and temperment to match. Stooping over all night was challenging, but the effect was awesome.

I got to chase the Jedi all night! (Ben)

Its full on fall here in Ohio. I have my office windows open and the air is cool and crisp. The pond and fountain and my fat little fishies are just outside. Birds of all kinds are flitting about chirping and honking and singing. From my office I hear only the cars that travel past the park.

Bizzare app iphone

I can post from iPhone but not view my blog. Wow so not helpful

we love you - you will be missed

Goodbye Vox.

You were my first blog and you opened my life to people and changes would never have imagined.
You showed up in my life at a time I desperately needed to have a presence online.

Now what?
Facebook - bah  (http://www.facebook.com/debtink)
Twitter - bah  (deedee)
Blogspot - bah (http://www.fiveminutememories.blogspot.com)
Typepad - bah  (likely I'll be debtink - have not set it up yet)

Vox was my muse. I could ramble. I could wax poetic. I could rant. I could gush.
I could open my self up and control WHO read what.

But mostly - I will miss our group - the four seasons.
Since I moved to from CA to OH that group has been my little window to my CA world.
It always felt like I was slipping into our clubhouse and reading notes left for just us to see.
I knew my words there were private.
I felt nurtured there.
Loved and befriended.

Goodnight moon.
