Checking in

Since last I posted, I began to study Tai Chi and am not as disciplined with it as I could be. I do, however, think about it nearly every day. Spring quarter ended barely a week ago, and I've begun mindless t.v. viewing, voraciously reading and writing. A Catholic monk friend invited me to a Sacred Heart of Jesus Bible study. I think, it was done to keep me out of trouble? I was surprised he remembered me and took the time to invite me. I took my first ever Humanities Women's Studies class, and wow was that ever interesting. For the millionth time since I met him, I am leaving the love of my life and my death. You know, the one person out of the trillions who possess' your heart, soul, mind and body.

I took an Astronomy course, and oh man. Talk about drowning in a sea of God's good creation. I went to the library yesterday, to arm myself with some more books to tide me over awhile. Schindler's List, The Selected Letters of Lord Byron and Last Standing Woman by Winona LaDuke. Pretty serious topics, I should have gotten a comic to pull me out of the sadness, frustration and hurt of it! I am so enjoying Lord Byron's thus far, what a fascinating writer of letters. If only I could be 1/4 as good a writer! Well I'll check back in, in three or four months......
