yes, that first bit, that's what i typically do, too, but that's exactly what i dont want to do this time, being too afraid that being so "off" i'd get something really not me.... and yes, tapping. ohhh, chakra cleansings galore, you know it!

thanks for the hugs, you! i think you got the answers you need? if not, ask more!

aww, thanks. yep, many years of flux! and just when we thought it was going to settle, it poofed! ...doing for me, alas.

i'd thought i was doing the right thing for me, but it blew up in a big way yesterday, so the answer to that is "trying to hold it together at the moment!"

really at this point, it's a matter of waiting for the dust to settle, which probably will be in... july... well, that's when it will start to settle. i think. i hope. maybe some elements will settle a bit before then.... meantime, i'll be working on manifesting that "something for me" element. i think actually, that will be my whole map. <greedy, selfish grin here!>

see, i'm utterly terrified of exactly that. utterly. terrified. i'm not going thru another year like this one. i'm afraid i would not make it intact thru to the other end....

for me, this year, it will be, i'm imagining, the softest, fluffiest map... although, i have to be careful, because the time in my life i was by far the most pampered and looked after was when i was pg and sick as a... dog? parrot? frog? pig? pregnant woman?

thank you for this, and your comments in the other thread. you rock. you and your pool. maybe i'll put swiming in your pool on my map....

you know, it really was saying, yesterday, "dont even think about it!" but then, i was thinking about manifesting ... well, stuff. a house, things, the life we want, those things. but once i started from the beginning (from mamaofthree's question), and thought-- really, i just want a nice shower, and maybe some new dishes.... well, it seemed a little more... do-able. i dont have to know what/where/how/when i "want" to do a map, kwim? i can just ask for peace and a nice shower.

you guys seriously rock. thank you so so much. i owe ya, big time.




now, where the bleep is cari?????? freaking me out. and where's maia????
