I guess it started with my new haircut. I didn’t intentionally go in there to walk out with three inches of hair, but it happened. Asked for one thing and got another. I’m rocking it though and actually beginning to love it more everyday.
Got an email one day that my services page was out of order. Checked and sure enough there was an under construction sign posted on its hosting site over on RadicalSelfie. She texted me a couple days ago and told me to peep the new page and I love it! See for yourself by clicking here.
Wrapped up the last finishing touches on the new spiritually liberating self-study guide, so I decided to get back to work on my novel. It’s been about three months since I last added to it, so I had to go back and reread what I what, then I got caught up in a kind of rewriting process, and then I started feeling like ugh. I ain’t about that life, so I decided to just start over. And I’m loving the flow now!
Homeschooling my son this year and for the first days, even now a little too, I go through these period of panic. If we aren’t schooling, then I feel like I’m wasting time and brain. It doesn’t help that I feel like there are a dozen eyes on my back trying to see how this thing turns out. So I had to check myself. I don’t operate like that. I was doing too much swimming and not enough floating, and whenever I do that, shit is…off. Releasing the need to be in control of every second and as I do so, he actually comes to me with ideas.
I’m also feeling this way around the house. Rearranged the kids bedrooms and if I had the coins to, I’d gut everything and start over. Working with what I have for now, including replacing the Family Dollar pictures on the wall with original artwork.
Finally (well, all I can think of for now), I’m trying the 21-day raw/vegan feast again. This is my third attempt; the first two didn’t happen, but I’m feeling this one. I didn’t make it some big to-do like I did the last times, if that helps. Didn’t write a letter to myself. Didn’t fast or cut back prior to it starting. I’m just going with the flow. If I crave a particular veggie, I’ll research recipes with it and go for it. Giving my belly a break by flushing it out and starting over, and I’m loving it 🙂
That whole new-new vibe is my intention for the new moon tonight. Have you set yours yet? Even better, have you been feeling this way too?

This line alone is EVERYTHING! “I was doing too much swimming and not enough floating.” Awesome article!
