Great visualization post!

Thanks for the comment. I have worked in other peoples gardens. I tried to start a community garden on vacant lots in Chicago but couldn't get the support I needed. I even wrote a business plan for a non profit venture to utilize the lots and employ locals who needed a place to work. I am having a good time with my new vegetable garden at our new place. Peace!

Hey, a climber! The trick is to motivated yourself as much as climbing does. Getting up is a hard thing for me too, if there is nothing exciting on the day.

Keep up the great work. We are both on day 24. Let's finish this together. Have a fantastic day.

well, i'm between here and there; the southwest US and Spain. i'm either temporarily in Spain or in the southwest awaiting a Spanish visa.

 

when in the southwest, i'm climbing, roadtripping, couch surfing, and picking up odd jobs building websites and doing technical writing (and, on Valentine's day, delivering flowers!).

 

i'm here (TOOLS) because i've been without a steady home for three years now. i pride myself on my ability to be mobile and self-reliant, but it's wearing thin and i think it's cutting into my focus and my power to create my next step. which is where Spain comes in.  

 

at day 14, i'm still working on the "get out of bed" thing. when you want change bad enough, you make it, right?  

all questions»

i usually don't sit through an entire tools box in one day. if i do, i usually don't hit "done" that first day. i'll read, watch, and listen and then let it sit with me for a day or two. sometimes, i spend three days on one "day". this way, i can process things better.

 

what about you?

says: I have limited time so I have to complete the Tools day as soon as I can. It takes me up to an hour to get through it properly. There is something to your idea of absorption. The time I put into it includes time to incorporate the lessons in my mind. Peace, Charley

My Music is not public.

I joined TOOLS because:
 i'm a list keeper and want to keep focused. i'm going through a life change (new country, business, etc.) and want to keep grounded during the process. not so much that i want to change anything, but want to keep my wits during the change.
You are offered your dream job. What job is it?:
 i'm moving so that i can create my own dream job.
Five people either dead or alive you would have at your fantasy dinner party::
 Eddie Vedder, Jancis Robinson, my mom, my sister nancy
Why:
 Vedder because he made his dream come true without any formal training and he's out there supporting causes he believes in. Jancis because she is a self-made woman in a man's world (wine tasting), is always up for trying new things with her business, and has an amazing sense of humor. My mom because I think she needs to experience more things and places even if the Boston Globe isn't available for a daily read. and my sister because she has an amazing way of connecting with people.
If a pilot would fly you anywhere you want, you would go to:
 japan. i have a good friend who lives there and would like to work on a tea plantation and understand the methods of tea leaf preparation and then the tea ceremony. i'd also like to climb in japan - their culture is so different - to see how they approach climbing.
My perfect slice of pizza is:
 yech.
You are at a bar. You order this drink:
 don't drink
You are at a coffee shop. What coffee or tea do you order:
 green tea
You are going on a long road trip and you can only bring three CD's. Which ones do you bring (separate by commas):
 i drove cross country twice without music. i don't listen to music.
If I could do anything for my neighborhood today, it would be:
 i move around so much that i don't really have neighbors. something i often end up helping friends with is downsizing and finding good homes (freecycle.org, womens' shelters, etc.) for the things the no longer need/want.
A sunset I remember:
 1986. nicaragua. san juan del sur. on the beach. with the full moon rising behind us.
Any character I could be from a movie, TV show or book would be:
 Sarah Connor, Terminator series
Why:
 because she's got physical and inner strength.
