Birthday Present Registry...

Dear Universe...

you know it's my birthday soon, right?

(AND the boy's birthday 27 days later, right?)...

AND you know it'll be the start of my first adult year (as per the medicine wheel) right? 

Well, all I want for my birthday this year, is a long term HOME (on Vashon) for me and the boy and the cats, with our stuff in it/out of storage, with the means to live there in comfort, with ease, dignity and grace...

We're done with the gypsying - grateful for the experience, thank you...

AND storage fees go up on the 1st July...

AND we have better things to spend our money on...

so, there you go - that's my birthday wish/intention...

AND so it is... Blessings Be... AUM...

PS:
oh, AND an all expenses paid, all needs/desires met, indefinite sojourn on a sunny, sandy beach with shade when and where I want it, would be good about now...

AND you'll have to sort out the visitation/passport/travel issues to make that happen so that the boy can come too...

How about it, Life?

WOW - thanks...

Home...

Dear Universe...

I'm grateful for having had this haven for these last months...

 

AND it's REALLY, REALLY REALLY time for us to move on... it's almost June 1st, Shawn is getting antsy, the teenage boy thing is revving up and we really need to settle in our own space with our stuff around us...

Which means there needs to be somewhere for us to go to, AND resources to make the move possible...

I've already put out intentions for the housing situation - what that looks like in terms of people and environment...

The economic and resources issues are next for consideration...

 

From my limited human perspective I can see several ways to bring that about:

Satisfying income-generating opportunities come my way, that make worthwhile use of my skills and talents, still leave me time and energy to be present with the boy AND bring sufficient cash and other resources for us to move AND to live well;

AND the judge decides that boy's father has to make a serious, generous, real-world contribution to the cost of raising and enriching the boy and the money part of that is enough to move AND pay the rent and other costs;

 

AND someone who has more than they need, chooses to share some of it with me and the boy, in a free, no-strings attached manner, so that I can continue and expand the social change work I've been doing in a joyous, care-free way...

AND some sort of windfall lands in my lap that takes care of our housing and living requirements...

I don't care which solution manifests - whether it's one, some, or all of these options combined, or something completely different ... Just BRING IT ON!

Thank you

Namaste

UNSCHOOLED YOUNGSTER,

TWO CATS and

ME (crone hippy wannabe with strong pragmatic streak),

DESIRING SOMEWHERE LONG TERM, SEMI-PERMANENT

TO LIVE AND WORK

From June 1st...

We've been living on Vashon Island with friends while waiting for our personal situation to solidify...

Which it has - I keep custody of the boy AND we have to stay living here in the US...

Time now to settle, give our loving, generous, patient friends their space back...

In the "BEST-OF-ALL-POSSIBLE-WORLDS" I see in my visions,

we're living here on Vashon...

• in a community...
• with compatible, loving, like-minded, awake and aware, creative, sober folk...
• in an eco-friendly, sustainable environment (earth house and/or small farm style etc with a garden, orchard, bees, poultry, goats, PEACOCKS! etc - I'm willing to help make that happen)...
• moving towards an organic, whole food/paleo diet...
• near water with a view of the mountain...
• with other children...
• with a separate room/studio I can use as my office and for my breath work and spiritual/life coaching practice...
• with all the resources we need to support and care for ourselves, our community, the land, air and water, to live fully and richly...

I'm mature, self-aware, non-judgemental, very left/progressive/anarchic-leaning social justice activist, independent in nature, plain speaking (with love), real, with a sarcastic, sardonic, mildly black sense of humour, focusing on supporting Occupy/99% Spring activities, highlighting alternative economies, alternative forms of social organisation and public education issues...

The boy's loving, giving, mature, intelligent, curious, gentle, calm, respectful, funny...

The cats are mature, spayed/neutered, house-trained, calm, sane, indoor-outdoor...

I have lots of skills to share - see here:

mainstream = communication, marketing, PR, research, project management = http://www.metamind-creative.com/ ;
alternative = healer/shaman/therapist/minister/birth, death, marriage celebrant = http://www.metamind-spirit.com/ ;
activist = http://www.sahilachangebringer.blogspot.com/ ; 

http://www.linkedin.com/in/changebringer

plus interior design, renovation/building project management, housekeeping, child and elder care, cooking, knitting etc...

I have a complete household of stuff in storage, which I'm happy to share with others...

We will contribute cash to rent/mortgage, household costs and food...

Preferred alternatives would be to:

• RENT a "tiny" house/cottage (less than 600 sq ft) OR
• HOUSE-SIT long-term OR
• WORK as residential property manager in exchange for free rent of 2-bedroom apartment, condo, house...

 again, near water, surrounded by green,

with a view of the mountain...

Thanks Universe, for making this a reality in 3D,

for our highest good and the highest good of all

AND SO IT IS

Namaste

Limbo...

Relocation/custody trial resumes on March 26, so we are still in a kind of limbo...

In the meantime...

Boy and I do better living with others...

AND we are so very grateful to be safe, warm, dry, clean and well-fed, with loving, like-minded people...

 

AND we need privacy and our own space, with our own stuff around us...

AND the other members of the household need us to have our own space too...

AND it's hard to be around a very, very bright, anti-authoritarian, know-it-all teenager in the household, butting heads all the time with his parents...

AND it's hard for me to stay out of it, when I see said teenager disrespecting his parents - it brings up my own stuff...

... sigh...
