when the mood strikes...

Well, you may have noticed I changed the name of my blog.  I do find it a little strange to refer to myself as a goddess, I will admit.  But why should it be?  I am one, dammit.  And being strange isn't bad in my book.  Although I really don't feel like one right now.  A goddess, that is.  Getting worn out by a couple of cute little kids and then having to do a bazillion dishes is just par for the course in a day in the life of this particular goddess :)

Thoughts on today:

1. When walking anywhere it is really pretty normal to look down.  Ever notice that?  Lately, I have been trying to look up, but sometimes it hurts my neck...also, I might trip, but fuck it.  Live dangerously, right?  It's a whole different world when you look up!  For fun try crouching down to see what the world looks like from a kid's or pet's perspective.  Woah.  No wonder kids want to feel powerful and pretend to be superheros!  They feel tiny and powerless so they have to compensate. 

2.  What's the deal with money?  Do you think we will ever get to a point where we just all do what positively drives us and makes us come alive and the Universe will come into balance and this place will be Utopia?  A few years ago, I began to gradually let go of my grasping for money.  Something clicked when I read this book The Soul of Money, actually.  It was like, changing my attitude about money was all I needed to do, and then it was somewhat easy to be able to make the amount I need to get by....plus some little extras.  It's not that I don't ever worry about money.  It's that I know, underneath it all that even if I don't have enough, things will be okay.  I kind of like the challenge of trying to eat all or most of the food stored in my cupboards before buying new things.  I have realized that stressing over money is not serving me or anyone.  (Convenient for a little, spoiled by her grandparents, white girl from NW Indiana to say, eh?)  But it IS true that I work hard.  I just happen to love the work so maybe from now on I'll call it play. 

Oh, yay!  Gotta go guys.  I have to go to play tomorrow :)
