Day Seven

Wow. Day seven? Even as I said it out loud this evening at our Quarter-Moon Meeting, I couldn't believe it. I have been here for one week. In many ways, it feels comfortable. Like maybe it could be a good home. Like I could do some gooood healing here. Some good writing here.

Today I woke up in the mood for a run. Halfway through, I had a "writer's epiphany." Suddenly, a project that has lay dormant for some months suddenly presented an idea. I ran back to the office as quickly as *pant pant* my little legs could carry me.

I worked on the Teacher's Guide, which is coming along pretty well, but at times I get frustrated, wondering if I am heading in the right direction. There is a lot of material there, and I am looking forward to connecting with Tamarack tomorrow or the next day on this project.

The Quarter Moon meeting was a way for the whole circle--19 of us--to connect on several different topics. We also had three guests in camp. It was a beautiful evening--although the meeting was lengthy, I'm happier to spend 5 hours sitting outside under the stars and learning about the community members than to be...well a lot of other places.

My goal for tonight is to remember my dream. Tamarack is an excellent interpreter, and it seems that everyone around me here is having very clear "dream messages." I hope to get to a similar place. that's all for now. Good night--or as we say here, Gigawobomen!
