You've left me lovely, supportive comments Abuelita.
No worries. I know, as you know from reading me, all about stress and running and rent gathering. I try to just put out my needs to the universe, and it sorts itself out somehow. The trick is to remain calm in the interim. Hey, I know that mind place far away. Haven't I seen you there? ;) I think manic depressive and artist can mean the same thing when it means living live emotionally through senses and experience. It is who we are. I just want it to pay better dammit! I may have to sell an original watercolor painted by my godfather when I was five, John Mendoza. I hope not, but it's an option. Have no idea how to do that, but hopefully I won't find out. It's expensive to follow our dreams (and to have the nerve to get sick or injured)...but in my heart I believe the cost to not follow is higher.
Yes, Drifter...who's name in real life is Andy...writes lovely haiku. He says thank you. :)

TEmple, maybe it's us. I read you and run....am sooooo very behind in life.
Having a minor breakdown here, painting instead of clay working and freaking about non-rent gathering. But, manic depressives live like that. At least, I don't just sit on the sofa anymore in some mind place far far removed from life and the world around me. Now, when going crazy, I read blogs and paint on canvases and post them on eBay for $10, which isn't rent paying .
Love your posts eternally and liked Nimble's words and yours, too. Sorry about not writing comments, none in my pea brain this month.....

Every girl needs to feel love from down under.
I can't stop myself with those damn things! Anyway, thank you, as always, for reading and leaving such lovely words. This post doesn't seem to be a hit for some reason. A lot of my favorites aren't reading or commenting lately....hmmm...maybe it's me. :)

Thanks, Cass!
Well, I keep them in word and on another website, if that's what you mean by documented. However, I am preparing Gidget for submission. It freaks me out, because it was never my intention. It's lovely that you like it and look forward to it. I wish I could write more! Stay strong....ah, yes....the ever present goal. I'll do my best. :)

Temple - you are an amazing writer! I hope you are documenting all your writings somewhere other than just Blogit. One day you will have enough material for a book. Your journey is incredible and wonderful - I always look forward to reading about the next curve in the road. Stay strong!
