good for the soul
2009-06-02 21:49:00 Tues 2: The energy of money or fame is far weightier than many realise, so I have enormous sympathy for Susan Boyle. Even elements with lower energetic levels, like blog readers, or followers on Twitter or Facebook, carry a weight that needs to be adjusted or it can bring one down. The successful ones are ...

time for thanks
2009-06-01 22:35:00 Mon 1: Clear hearing, good eyesight without glasses, active use of all limbs ? I really am deeply thankful for all my senses and appendages, even without aches, pains or blockages. Although this morning?s meetings were marred by that water-logged ear, when it ?popped? back to normal again, in the early afternoon, anyone would have ... More About: Time
water in ear
2009-05-31 22:04:00 Sun 31: Conscientious and curious though I am, there is no way every house can be delivered to. Some gates are firmly bolted, others actually do not even have letterboxes! (Is that allowed?) Several had letterboxes which were sealed. However, I am aiming to keep to my end of the now changed agreement. I have lived ... More About: Water
ringing Ma
2009-05-30 20:03:00 Sat 30: Sunny Saturdays are supposed to be relaxing, aren?t they? The doorbell went twice before 9am. By 13:30hrs, I had shopped, cleaned, washed my hair (there?s a lot of it!), made chilli rice noodles with asparagus and tomato, and rescued Linda McCartney?s awful vegetarian sausages. BTW, there is only one make that is worth eating ...
halfway up halfway down
2009-05-29 21:36:00 Fri 29: Another day of little challenges, but the glorious sunshine more than made up for the downs. I discovered a trolley I bought to do the magazine deliveries (and for other reasons!), was broken. I had not noticed it until now and was not best pleased at having to pay just over £8 to ...
trust not repaid
2009-05-28 23:23:00 Thurs 28: All those creams and potions bought for the dry skin condition are now ?not fit for purpose? as my normal skin condition has returned. It?s expensive and means being extra vigilant to avoid an unpleasantry like the papule resulting from clogged pores. From all those rich creams my face was unused to! Plus, because ...

power block
2009-05-27 21:55:00 Wed 27: Pulled muscle in lower region plus disgusting weather are not a good combo at the best of times. Got more marketing emailers out ? trying not to be concerned about artist registrations. Might well have the opposite with over-booking. I hope. Meanwhile, the media still has not let go of the recently departed reality ... More About: Power , Block
forget the past?
2009-05-26 21:22:00 Tues 26: It?s just as well I like my own art as I find it, and my website, very calming after frenetic activity. Several deliveries, including the magazines but not the flyers, copy for the Shoebox Art Fair almost completed. Still have the first press release to write. Plus my own myriad tasks. And aren?t ...

carrot love
2009-05-25 21:16:00 Mon 25: Woke to raging storms, Mother Nature variety. Good excuse to avoid weeding the front jungle. Instead, I ended up sorting receipts, doing some painting, washing my hair, giving myself a facial massage and… ? God knows, really. The day seems to have passed with a bit of this and that but no real ... More About: Love , Carrot
pondering causes
2009-05-24 23:23:00 Sun 24: Went to sleep full of love and light and goodwill to all (as each night). Woke feeling rather sour and surly, mostly about Ma?s estate and what I think is a lack of empathy from both NandDs (one is on yet another holiday and we still do not have the Will yet! The ...
release
2009-05-23 22:04:00 Sat 23: To wish someone dead would be despicable unless, like me, you truly believe in a better afterlife. And a better life after is what I do wish for Madeleine McCann, with an end to her suffering. If she had only gone missing for a few days, any mental torture might have been short-lived. ...

MPs not yet off hook
2009-05-22 20:53:00 Fri 22: Caritas is the essence of the divine in all. Yet I cannot help wondering whether Archbishop Rowan Williams has something to hide that prompted his support of our thieving MPs. Unlike him, I actually believe the political infrastructure has not yet touched rock bottom. But, when it all does, it will create a far ... More About: Hook
mind tricks
2009-05-21 21:55:00 Thurs 21: Strange thoughts float through as the mind leaves one dimension for another ie sleep. From the highly mystical - sensing the Divine Void or Source - to the totally mundane - that Twitterers who don’t bother to follow back are often mind numbingly banal - to the personally emotive - of RAF Duxford ...

tourist art
2009-05-20 22:14:00 Wed 20: Standing on the seafront early this morning felt almost meditative. Despite feeling bone weary, my mind was on overtime, thinking up marketing pitches for the Shoebox Art Fair in July. (26th ? at the Windmill Studio in Littlehampton. Message me for more information.) Naturally, there are concerns about the short time frame to find ... More About: Tourist
forward in patches
2009-05-19 23:03:00 Tues 19: 18 is usually the challenging number. Although it was hectic yesterday, today started with no internet connection. Again. Twitter came into its own though as a tweet got found by @BTCare and it looks like something positive will result. In between, I got out emails to a proposed core arts group, taped and mounted ...

colour therapy
2009-05-18 21:50:00 Mon 18: Microsoft Office Accounting Professional made my stress levels rise quite frighteningly this morning. I start the new financial year, at the end of the previous one, with the best of intentions, logging whatever receipts I may have for the fresh year after finishing the last one, all with their appropriate nominal code. I ... More About: Therapy , Colour
open houses
2009-05-17 21:35:00 Sun 17: Driving rain on a Sunday is usually best spent feet up, watching a soppy film. Instead, I went to Middleton to one of the Open Houses ? B?s girlfriend. Lovely artwork, incredibly good watercolour skills of almost photo-realistic quality. Typically though, I reserved one of her abstracts! It was also useful business-wise as I ...
burning bridges
2009-05-16 23:44:00 Sat 16: Back from little man?s birthday and sat down to watch Eurovision. Daftly checked emails in small break and ended up responding to another communication that knocked a nail in the coffin. Thankfully, there are no waves of deep emotion any more. Just indifference and some annoyance that the end is not yet in sight. ... More About: Bridges , Burning
acceptable behaviour
2009-05-15 21:01:00 Fri 15: Some people are bored with the topic of MPs? expenses. It?s just money, apparently. No, it is not. It is a question of morality and self-awareness, by those who create rules and regulations that dominate and frustrate the lives of those who actually pay that money. We do not pay into a shared money ... More About: Behaviour

2009-05-14 21:49:00 Thurs 14: Manic day. Meeting with Arun and Inspire re arts? initiatives, starting with Shoebox Art Fair, hopefully in late July. Posted threads in art forums, LinkedIn, Twittered and started a Facebook group… …Separated contacts for a mailing list and exported it. Made notes to unclutter my mind re the next steps and sent ...
art marketing
2009-05-13 20:29:00 Wed 13: April showers bring May flowers; May showers bring massive heating bills. At least the novelty of dry winter skin seems to have gone as my fussy face now does not like too much aqueous cream and has presented me with a couple of milia under the eyes. And I have two spots too! ... More About: Marketing
changes afoot
2009-05-12 21:16:00 Tues 12: Have decided not to renew membership of Institute of Sales & Marketing Management. My profession is now artist and writer, not sales person ? although selling is par for the course for all businesses. From casual research, artists are still selling their work, but the rank and file variety make sales when they ...
positivity is more than a few quotes
2009-05-11 22:02:00 Mon 11: Do MPs really think claiming for everything and the kitchen sink is right? If so, their moral compass is truly out of kilter. What an appalling bunch of freeloaders! If anyone is organising a summer of focused protest, I absolutely will join it. Meanwhile, my workroom smells of turps and oil paints ? ... More About: Quotes , Positivity
living with differences
2009-05-10 20:58:00 Sun 10: This is not a ‘nice’ blog. It is not meant to be a ‘nice’ blog. (cf L?s comment last week.) It is a spiritual being having a human experience with all its ups and downs. Its subtext is to reflect the same joys and pains as the reader yet with an implied nod ... More About: Living , Differences
corners of my mind
2009-05-09 17:46:00 Sat 9: The mind-zone shifts came from finding photos and letters of my younger self ? in virtually every room too! At the time of sorting Dad?s estate one of the NandDs made a remark about me being given money. True. But, as I pointed out then, I paid most if not all of it ... More About: Mind , Corners
mind shift
2009-05-08 19:13:00 Fri 8: Am back guys and gals. Shift ing through mental timezones causes a kind of jetlag. Returned last night after 18 hours of hard slog, 10 hours of driving there and back and mind shifting to times past. Add a last minute severely strained back and my schedule today is already mapped out! Remaining in ... More About: Mind

2009-05-04 20:09:00 Mon 4: Bank Holiday glitches. BT broadband connection keeps dropping and Arun District has not picked up my recycling bin. Again. Mine and one other guy round the corner. How on earth could they ? AGAIN ? fail to empty just ours? It?s not as if we are tucked away in a corner? Then there is ... More About: Meditation

2009-05-03 20:54:00 Sun 3: Australia made a rather grey afternoon pass pleasantly enough. But was it meant to be kind of Cartland-ish or slapstick? Pity really because it could have been an epic and mystical thriller. The lack of sun was only slightly missed as I have conflicting emotions about brightly sunny days. Feelings of aloneness, and ...

time travel choice
2009-05-02 20:37:00 Sat 2: Used unwanted CDs for the dual purpose of scaring off birds and sending signals to any alien life who might fancy a chat. (Just kidding.) Despite the glorious spring sunshine, I detoured to watch Barabbas which my mind did not apparently file, even though I always watch any films in the biblical historical ...

More articles from this author:2009-05-01 20:28:00 Fri 1: Because of Suttons? delivery yesterday, today became a gardening day. And, because of the mistakes I made last year with tomatoes, chillis, lemons and peppers, this year they are all in plastic planters ? and outside ? not in the conservatory. Heaving bags of compost was not much fun. Even lugging them on the ... More About: Journey , Spiritual 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 |
