• Love Me Like…Wind Down Slow Flow Yoga and Written Meditation

  

  I wasn’t too glad with the video and the song particularly; I realized there are more videos I could do on my yoga channel @jadenicoleyoga. The wisdom part of the post that came after was not restoring, but I could see the full thoughts in draft. A tech issue that makes me realize what I […]

• Tuesday (And More)

  

  I myself have little memory of the day let alone the week, it has been a very busy week, but I am sure it was good. 🙂 I notice I was stressing the blog posts (as in stressing what is best?), and then I realized my goals don’t actually need me to do that when […]

• Vacation

  

  Peeko listening to a naptime story rest, sit, meditate, paint a little, walk. look at the sky, draw, notice scenery, sketch a scene, yoga stretch, continue to eat tangerines, tomatoes, drink green tea, make scrambled eggs with baby spinach, dinner meals. See how many cups of water I am actually drinking in the day, dawned […]

• A Future Poetry Project: Verse

  First, I would like to slow down; I realize if I tell about something that the person listening cannot follow, and I often feel sorry to see others overwhelmed with the quickness and excitability of my telling, asking me to retell. I will practice this when I speak with the next person I talk to. […]

• A Very Cute Blue Cookie

  

  A poetic line came to mind just before I met the NaNoWriMo writers tonight…It brought me to the more center place in my story’s theme, as I was getting myself thrown into a corner before that in my draft. I told a little visual from my own draft to relate to the other writers’ stories. […]

• a short selection of short verse

  I wrote these today; I knew I was desiring to write poetry and hadn’t remembered the form ‘til recently when I found a book I’d already had Haiku Mind while arranging my books anew. Today, 5 haiku and 1 tanka: 1 I’ve changed all the locks I still love you * 2 My cat naps […]

• Vacation Ends Early: A Lesson from a Teacup and a Wild Flower

  

  I picked a vacation week but it will do better next time as I take the start of it more seriously, and I have ended this one a day early; tagging posts, “vacation time” missed the point, along with shuffling ‘round and ‘round every thing of mine online…At one point, my phone fully died at […]

• Wind-flown

  I learned a new word, I think it was wind-sewn; or maybe wind-sown?, or even wind-turned, and I am all windswept or windblown along with these flowers. I don’t know; I like them all anyway…the little red flowers and leaflets and versions of this word… As for the pieces of my novel in progress and […]

• Peeko’s Fiction Pick and Photo Shoot

  

  photos Jun 11, ’22 evening I am reading at a slow, meditative pace the novel, Queen Hereafter by Susan Fraser King set in Scotland in 1000 AD. I hadn’t seen many historical fiction novels set at this time or place. My cat Peeko (shown above) does no tricks; he poses his own way in these. […]
