What's Going On?

I used to be very consistant with my daily posts and lately, they are sporadic. That's what happens when I work full time, have 2 college courses, I'm doing 20 hours of human services volunteer work, have a theory paper to write and spend much of my time reading and hanging out on the Daily Kos.

One thing I have not missed---TELEVISION! I have not watched since I returned from my Florida Keys vacation; and I don't miss it. I have filled my time with all the things I enjoy--my pets and reading, and of course, my husband.
My two oldest children moved out two weeks ago--they got an apartment together in order to save money, so hubby & I have been doing projects around the house with are new rooms. Our youngest is a senior in high school and works and has projects of his own.

So, right now, things are ok. Bush still sucks; in fact, he gets worse everyday, but I can still type that and I have a roof over my head--not heading to the Homeland Concentration camps yet.
Say hello to Chuck!!!

Dropping Knowledge


Dropping Knowledge: The Living Library came together yesterday.
It was fantastic!
They decided not to use my personal question for the 100 they asked, but that's ok, it was beautiful.
The diversity of answers to each probing question was awesome to hear.
All people from around the world can participate in answering those 100 questions and thousands more that were submitted and will be added as this internet library takes flight.

Have a great Sunday.
Peace,
Deanna

Pow Wow



Attending a Native American Pow Wow, for me, is an experience of great fun & social gathering; spiritual, especially during intense drumming, the energy is very powerful. And the food----OMG!!!! the food--personally, frybread tastes good with ANYTHING! Today's festivities did not disappoint. I was brought back to center & nature, and family.
Peace and have a great holiday.
