DH 2 Travelers: I'd Rather Stick Needles in my Eye ...

I'd Rather Stick Needles in my Eye ...

... than have another headache! Ever felt like that?

Well, thanks to a former CCI co-worker, Lee, I've found an amazing acupuncturist/acupressurist just 5 minutes from home - her name is Ingrid and she works from her lovely studio-at-home in Leucadia, our former neighborhood - she's even on our old street!

Ingrid is - I already said it - AMAZING. People see her for aches & pains & injuries, high blood pressure, weight matters, etc etc etc. For now, WE are working on my headaches. The progress she's made with me in just three visits is very, very encouraging.

If anyone in the San Diego area that's reading this wants a referral to a most gifted healing-arts gal, just ask me. I'm happy to share the information.

I've been considering going to an accupuncturist to help me quit smoking. I've also heard about these things called "seeds" that are taped to a certain part of the ear... a pressure point... and are also supposed to be effective. The only problem with "seeds" is that I don't know the exact part of the ear to put them on, which an accupuncturist would know.

I guess what I'm saying is that I'd love a referral to yours. Not sure when, or if, I would go, but it couldn't hurt to have her information on hand...

FOR September 2012 ...

Outside My Window today... 61 degrees @ 9:45 am on 9-8-12, with an expected high of 88 today; blue skies; a charming back yard with an old white iron bench in the corner, and three amazing cyclists warming up for their criterium (bike race) today at the 2012 Masters National Cycling Championships here in Bend, Oregon.

I am STILL thinking ... about how excited I am for 2013's AN ARTFUL JOURNEY, which I am registered to attend!

I am thankful for ... all my loved ones, and the kindnesses they show me.

From the kitchen ... Zucchini Bread with Cranberries & Pistachios and an awesome pot of coffee

I am wearing ... my pajamas with my ocelot-print flannel robe

I am creating ... ideas for a Magpie's Art Nest workshop or two in 2013; and curriculum plans for a NWF Habitat Stewards Training series in Encinitas, Ca in 2013

I am going ... into downtown Bend shortly to see my husband Mark and his teammates Steve, John, Joey, Mike, Bob, Alex and our housemate Kal race for a national championship in the masters 54-59 Criterium event.

I am reading ... ALL THE DANCING BIRDS by Auburn McCanta; "Desire to Inspire" by Christine Mason Miller (in bits here & there, to let it sink in); and I'm about to start MY FATHER'S HOUSES (Memoir of a Family) by Steven V. Roberts.

I am praying ... mostly for my father, who now lives in a memory care facility and who turns 92 in 2 weeks; for healthy and happy family members and friends; for the safe arrival of our next grandchild, Jamison, who is due in January 2013; and for many friends the world over who have asked me to pray for and with them. There are many, many intentions in my prayer journal these days.

I've been listening to ... a lot of classis rock on this holiday - it's good driving music, and it's good 'gathering / party' music for a houseful of mature male cyclists with their one (that would be me) 'housemother'. Bike racing, it's good stuff.

Around the house ... it's pretty quiet with us here and my niece and great-niece there.

One of my favorite things ... waking up every day.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The YEAR: a 3-night return trip home from Bend, taking our time so we aren't in the car for as many hours each day; 5 nights in Healdsburg, CA in October; getting re-certified with NWF (national wildlife federation) as a Habitat Steward HOST in their Wildlife Habitat Garden program ...
