Good Morning!

[FireWithin]

so excited about today!!!

just did some yoga to clear my mental space and I have an hour to clear our creative space.  My apt is not nearly as clean as I would wish, but I am being gentle on myself.

Well, I take mine down. I want the energy of the new one. I don't burn them because I use foam board and I don't think that's environmentally sound, probably.

Now ds is saying he doesn't want to do one...and I know that's because he wants to play Nintendo all day On one hand, I want to forbid him from it, but if I do that, he'll have a bad (epic bad) attitude about TMing, which I don't think is good for TM energy, but on the other hand, I want to let him play as it's Sunday...gah.

[Tracy]

Why don't you compromise with him....  Two hours of TMing and then the rest of the day Nintendo-ing.  

[Tracy]

Ah, Lucimonster,

I miss you.  But pleased you do a drive by on MDC for Treasuremaps!

hugs to you!

I've found that TMing is kind of contagious.  Once I have everything out, I'm flipping through magazines, got my glue stick and poster board, etc. my kids just naturally get drawn to it as well.  No pressure, no forcing...it's just too much fun to pass up.

Wonder if TM time has started now or if it' in 9 minutes. We just switched to summer time last week and normally we are 6 hours ahead of EST.. So right now it's 4.23 PM here. Doesn't really matter though. We're soon off to my parents in law for dinner... And then I guess it's bedtime for three children before I can start my TM'ing....

Have a great TM period everyone! I'm excited. This is my second time.

Woo hoo! Let it begin!

Thanks!

Last years map has been amazing.  The one area that had not been as fulfilled was house and kitchen remodel---out of the blue yesterday dh says it thing I am going to tear up the kitchen floor tormorrow!

I recycled mine. Whne I pulled out the old TMs (from previous years) one still held so much energy I didn't want to let it go. The other had none and I couldn't wait to get rid of it. DS ripped off the images he liked on the energy filled TM and then I was more than happy to put it in the recycle bin. It did take me three years to let go of that one TM though. :)

Well, he changed his tune and said he wants to do one. So I let him pick out a new magazine and he was all excited, and now that we're home he is playing DS again. I keep asking him from my room, where I'm cutting out things, "Do you want a picture of ____?" or "Do you want the phrase ______?" and he's saying yeah. I think he just is looking at the whole thing as work. He's VERY adhd and gets overwhelmed at The Whole Big Picture (of anything). I don't mind cutting things out that he might use, but I do want him to get in on doing the map itself. I keep reminding him how much he manifested from last year.
 

Where's the new thread? Is it up yet? ~Off to check right now~

My man is doing a map, too! I can't believe it! Maybe it's because he knows he was manifested from my map two years ago. AND, while he didn't do a map last year, he did write a very important thing that is meaningful to him on a sticky note, and that manifested bigtime. So yay!!!

I can't believe I missed it ;-(

haven't been on MDC for a long while, but have been doing TMs for a few years now.  Started clearing things out in February and early March, then ended up with several fractures in my face at the end of March and had to have surgery.  Going to be fine, but the recovery has taken longer than I expected; completely forgot about TMapping and just realized last night that it was already end of April.  Looked up the dates and now I'm wondering if I can still do it?

Tracy or anyone else, any advice?  if I can still do it, any certain time in the near future that's better?

[Tracy]

hmmmm.  normally, i would say, wait a year until aries new moon 2012.  but I am feeling differently about this moon.  With Uranus in Aries and the Mercury retrograde..... go ahead and make a map.  let's see what it brings you.  keep me updated either on this thread or through a PM. I would like to follow the results.   good luck.

Interesting. I would love to hear your thoughts on this Tracy.
