colector: Re: [JournalWriting] Hey all I've been MIA for a week or so...Ray/Walks everyone

I say go for it! *grins* Do whatever it is you wanna do with your journaling. And if it doesn't work out, try something else! *chuckles*
Blessings and Love,

Its been pretty sunny here for a week and even though its been a
sunny time its been in the 50's which is warmer but not warm enough
to totally shed the winter wear. I think we'll have a nicer weather
year than last year which was overcast central and rain for the most
part. I had to leave to get a decent summer.

Looks like everyone is fine and HELLO to the new members. I had been
reading the daily digests but I've been pretty quiet for awhile and
basically I am just trying to get out of the winter doldrums that get
me here at the end of winter. I don't think I have said more than a
few words for awhile. Sometimes I don't say much and Aidan knows I am
quiet but he says that level of quiet is unnatural and I gave him a
very distinctive don't mess with me look. <---(He said) I let him
know I am okay during winter so I can get through the dreariness but
toward the end thats when my psyche says "you can break down now a
little kid." This Cali girl just can never get used to winters here
and I think Aidan deals with it much better but he says at certain
points it gets to him also so he was glad to see the sun as well. I
suppose I should be glad I don't live in Illinois or back in the east
where they get some serious snow! (Which I am seriously!)

I like the end of winter because then I feel like exercise and
getting out is taking effect better. Its mental I know. I do exercise
in winter here but maybe its because I drink a fair amount of sugar
free chai and other teas and eating soups and stews so I feel
heavier. I don't really pay attention to the numbers on a scale but a
few weeks back I checked and I was almost 10 pounds heavier which at
125ish isn't bad but you know how your body feels when its heavier
and not at its happy place :)In the next month or so I should be able
to get back to happy place. Thankfully.

Sorry you are dealing with all that snow Ray. I am sure my cousin who
lives near Chicago feels the same way! When it snows here I try not
to walk out in it because it makes me a bit nervous when it gets icy.
We had snow maybe 3 times over the winter here and I missed it once
back in December. I saw the lunar eclipse back where I was very well
and I was pretty warm while doing it even though I was on my deck
because it wasn't cold yet :)I talked to my mom last Friday and she
is looking forward to seeing us next week. We should be there for
about a week and a half or so. We really want to see Florida and pop
over to Memphis to see my Aunt and Uncle again.

Walks glad to see you are doing well with SoftBrownEyedMan :) I had
been looking at the types of journals you keep and decided recently
it would be a bit easier for me if I had 3 journals (of the paper
variety) and 1 online! It was getting way too weird trying to record
everything I did in one journal. Unless I wanted to keep a 3 ring
binder type of notebook which I don't since I dig Moleskine. I keep a
daily 2008 type which is mainly lists and reminders and notes to
myself; one for specific writing scenes/poetry/backstory etc and one
is a freewriting type that I just started up again because I was
feeling the lack of keeping that journal for about a month.

I watched the Oscars last night and John Stewert didn't do too badly.
It seemed a little strange still with all of the many montage type
scenes. I didn't have any pictures or actors I was rooting for but
Katherine Heigl looked the most amazing I think out of the females
last night and Hilary Swank was right behind her. I was thinking
Cameron Diaz always seems to look like she needs a hairbrush though.
George Clooney and Daniel Day Lewis looked really great for the men.

Oh well I have rambled on enough for now and I want to deal with some
things before continuing on.

To hear the sound of the wolf is to experience a singularly moving sensual experience of wilderness. Sound of unreachable quality, seeming weird and inhuman. But not unearthly. For it is of the essence of the creature wolf: of his spirit, his being, his truth. A transcendental song that took form uncounted millennia before time was defined. Something elemental. A living call from the past. A revelation of the very Universe.
