Lazy Days
Ahhh..and the day is over....already.
We didn't make it to the badlands...as much as I would have liked to. Because it was HOT...I mean...HOT. So we went to the Mystery Cosmos area. It was really, really trippy. It is some kind of magnetic feild, or vortex..something natural. It defies the laws of gravity..and so forth. A TRIP I tell you. I wish you all could have been there with me. Sheesh..wouldn't THAT have been crowded? But we would have had a bunch of fun!
We came home and had a barbeque tonight. I did it. I haven't barbequed in years. It was fun...but better than that...it was so damn good. Yeah. I rock. lol.
SO...I see someone has entered me in the best of Xanga contest...wow. Whoever did it..and I think I may know who it was...THANK YOU. I think there are TONS of great people out in the Xanga world, writing, and helping me learn, more about life, myself, and them. To be put in the same catagory as these people...when all I do is ramble and write...and vent. It's humbling...and makes me feel so good. Who knows..maybe I'll get an award! So thank you! If you want to vote, you can go here...
Hmmm...whats left to write about tonight...let me think. I miss my kids...BAD already..and I still have six days to go...so I better deal with it! What else...I talked with my moms ex boyfriend tonight. They were together when I was between the ages of 8-10 or so. I've talked to him a few times since then..but not much. Though they have always remained friends. In talking to him tonight...it took me aback. I remember this gruff guy...full of love..but also..I don't know...big and Godlike, almost. And tonight, we talked. I mean, talked like adults. Had a discussion about life. An amazing one. One that I'll probably eventually write about, but I still need to process it all. How lucky I feel, though, to have had the chance to really learn from him. He's a wise man.
Lets see...what else. Oh, after I blogged earlier this morning, I was downstairs getting dressed. I had just put on my bra..when I look over, and there is another deer...peering in the window at me. I mean, her nose was practically pressed to the window. I almost feel violated..lol..My mom has a peeping Tom..er..or..Tammy, anyway. It was funny..and really, such a novelty. LeafyLady commented today, and said that ( and I'm quoting loosly here, since I'm too lazy to go back and read it once again..) 'It's nice to be out in nature, but it's also nice to be in a social environment.'...I couldn't agree more. I think I may go crazy if I lived out here...I need people too much..but man, do I appriciate the nature, and the veiws..and all this place has to offer. I'm so glad my mom moved here!
Alrighty...I think I'm done with my random ramble...
Hope you ALL have a great, great Monday..I'll try to visit some of you..
But..you know...dial up...

mmmmmm love the pic i think a womans body is awesome--so many curves--i enjoyed your post--have you ever thought maybe deer had a message for you--sometimes when you see an animal out of the blue--there is a good reason--right at this moment i don't have my book with me but case you would like to know what it means contact me on my xanga sight--nature is the truest point of purity to me and your connection in nature is the most powerful even over doing meditation in the house isn't as powerful as outside--did you have a chance to meditate at the power spot??--BB JS
hey nice xanga, heres some props L8a
That Cosmos place sounds like fun. Is it really a natural anomaly or set up to to be funky?
Those deer want to know who you are. Ours never come that close, but I see their tracks in the morning.
I'm so glad that you had a good day. It sounds like you have been really busy. I hope that you continue to enjoy your vacation. Have a great day!
As Ever,

How cool, a deer!! That's so awesome! I agree, nature is so beautiful, and I love visiting it, but I couldn't permanently leave all my conveniences and people!
did you get any pictures? Sounds like it was a fun time!
I went from city to more nature than I can handle. It's beautiful out her, but the town literally shuts down by 10pm. I miss social interaction with humans (I have enough wildlife here to last me a few decades)
Mystery cosmos... that explains your comment on my site! I knew something had to get into you! *evil grin*
All things come clear in time my lady.
Sail on... sail on!!!
Missing you and hope you are having fun!!!

Way out here in our little dinky town, the deer come into town most nights for a visit. They like to eat where my garden used to be -- they probably feel like they're getting away with something. Lately we've had so much rain that they stay out in the hills, but it won't be long before they're back, raiding gardens, chowing down on dog food, and peeking in windows again. I like deer.
Not meaning to take the joy out of your experience at Mystery Cosmos, Knott's Berry Farm and Ghost Town, in Southern California, used to have those same kinds of illusions set up in "The Haunted Shack". I don't know if they still do -- they may not, since there's more money in thrill rides. Amethyst62 used to work there, way back when. It was a fun place, before Walter Knott died and his kids decided it was better to be commercial and rich than fun and just very successful. Oh well...
It's great to hear that you're having a good time!
I am so glad you are enjoying your vacation! Soak it up girl...you deserve it! Nothing better than being one with nature.
