I LOVE DEVENDRA AND I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS SONG!

If ever there was a song to describe me I think this one would BE it! And just like the Obsessive/Compulsive Child I AM, I play this video over and over again and dance in my underoos right along with him. Don't BE Hatin'!

As I was walking past my car yesterday I caught a glimpse of myself in the window.

I was Divinely Inspired so, I snapped a piktcha'.

I AM BLESSED!

And YOU?

BE WELL.

ELDERBERRY WARRIOR

BEfore a Berry Hunt I appease the GODS of Abundance and wear the blood of my pursuit to ensure a fruitful harvest.

I BECOME ONE WITH THE BERRY!

I finally picked those wild elderberries we have growing every which way out here and made some lovely elderberry jam on Tuesday. It takes a lot of elderberries to make a pint of jam, but my efforts and sacred berry picking rituals, allowed me to find enough berries for 4.5 pints of the magical stuff. Oh yes, it is divine. Made the way I make all my other jams, with low sugar, Green Tea, powdered Vit C and a few drops of Stevia to boost the sweet. Sorry, I haven't a smidge to spare, these little lovely jars are staying right here with me. BUT!!! If you stop over for a visit I will indeed share...if only to see your face go YUM and to hear you boast of it's utter deliciousness.

Elderberries are so good for you too and full of many health BEnefits, particularly for the immune system. Elderberries are the main ingredient in Sambucol a European cold remedy that will cure all your ills, well... colds and flu anyway. So the next time I get to feeling a little run down, I won't need to swig from the Sambucol bottle, instead I'll spread some jam on a biscuit and watch the bugs skidaddle!

My next exotic jam pursuit is going to be hot pepper, crabapple jam. I have heaps of crabapples out here and never thought they would offer any food BEnefit, until this past winter, when a little, old lady on the phone gave me inspiration and instructions for making the most delightful little spreads. I could have talked to her for hours but the boss you know, she frowned on long, drawn out conversations with customers so...

My raspberries are crazy productive right now too and they must BE picked everyday so as not to lose any of those delicate lovelies. Some of the raspberries are eaten on the spot, others turn into pie, others find their way into a blender with ice and lemonade, others I give away, and the rest get frozen to BEcome jam on another day. GOD is abundant with my raspberry patch so...come pick from my bushes and ENJOY!

BE WELL.

Life is good here at Camp Crunchy!
I spend a lot of time in imaginative states, so that is probably why!
I'm happier up here in space.
Out of reach.
Free.
I don't think I want to BE a tree after all.
Perhaps I AM a bird.
Or a cloud?
I'm too dense to BE a bubble.
Soon I'll just BE a shadow.
Same as us all.
Black Dot.
Nothing.
Free.

Tickle Me Pink

Tue, 08 Jul 2008 19:16:53 GMT

I dyed the front part of my hair pink last week. I visited a friend in KY last month and I dyed her hair purple for her. I could not talk her into pink...but I did do the purple. It looked pretty cool but I still wanted it to be pink so...

I WENT PINK! I think it suits and now my head matches my mood; perky and girly.

I painted my body in henna too and danced in the sun amongst the flowers.

My field of flowers is in in full bloom now too and whenever I look out my south windows this is what I see....it makes me want to dance.

Yes, I DO realize that I AM BLESSED!

BE WELL.

Hey Babies! Guess who is back from the Land of I WISH I WERE DEAD!? Yup. It's true and here is another clue...I AM feeling frisky, funky and full of silly fun once again. WHEEEEEEEE!!!

Now tell me, which of you angels out there is doing voodoo to make me well? I AM not lying when I say... every single time I write a whining, I'm ill and sickly blog on Xanga my troubles seem to disappear the next day. EVERY TIME! Thank you so very much for that magic, I missed myself so very much and I was seriously losing my will to live. I blame the Atripla for that. A TRIP LALALALA is more like it, only not so much LA as OMG somebody kill me please!

I AM currently not taking any HIV meds and do not plan to take any more at least until after my birthday next month. I have lofty goals and plans and peeps I want to visit in the next coming weeks and I AM not willing to suffer with any more side effects in the interim. I'm not real convinced that I will be trying any more of those horrible meds anyway. If I buckle down and get serious with my health again I AM quite convinced I can suffocate the HIV in me with goodness and prayer. I thank GOD every night for curing me of this HIV and one of these days I'm convinced he is going to tire of my nagging ways and make it so!

The rash has almost left now too although, I AM still really itchy and do feel that occasional pins and needles feeling that is a direct result of med induced neuropathy. Many of the HIV meds are notorious for causing Neuropathy and let me tell you, that shit hurts! I think death is the lesser of 2 evils when it comes to neuropathy...but that is just me.

My meningitis symptoms have almost left completely now too and I don't have to wear my sunglasses in the house anymore. LET THERE BE LIGHT! Nary a jabbing ear pain either and my sleep has returned to normal volumes now too...and I can EAT! Eat like a HOG! I should have no worries gaining the weight back I lost while medicated. Please pass that Culvers frozen custard my way! OINK!

I'm going to LIVE and more importantly... I ONCE AGAIN WANT TO! THANK YOU!!!

BE WELL.
