Partial dream recalled from last night. I was on a boat or cruise ship. I was entertaining an old friend BdeK and his family. We were in New York onboard a cruise ship that was docked for the evening. There were lots of attractions both on the ship and on land. BdeK was there to work with me on a project that was being done for a publisher. We were having a good time watching the kids take the rides and talking about old projects and what we might do on the current one.

It was a lighthearted dream segment. I don't recall much more that this thumbnail sketch, but the dream seemed to go on for quite a while.

Went to yoga class this morning. Last class by this teacher until October. Will be a new person teaching next week. Will be good to have a different instructor for a while. Change is in the air.

I continue to think often and a lot about where I'm going to settle. I feel so uncertain about everything. Uncertain and frozen. I've created a partially comfortable situation where I am now and resist the thoughts of looking elsewhere, moving, relocating, and so on. But, I'm clearly not settled with where I am now or the prospects of being able to stay locally. Part of the problem, is that I'm thinking about it a lot, but not very creatively, thoroughly, or clearly.

Just noticed that one of my grandkids just turned 6. She'll be 6 and I'll be 66. She'll be 7 and I'll be 67. And onwards to the march of time.

But, back to the location problem. The answer is location, location, location. The thought of it makes me want to close my eyes and sleep. I've noticed that I've not been "seeing" a lot recently. I catch myself sitting with my eyes closed, as if in meditation or sleep. It's restful, but it's not exactly productive. Movement is being called for. It is the age of Tonatiuh--the 5th Aztec Sun God--the god of movement. The one who goes forth shining--the name of my golden camper truck.

Attitude, attitude, attitude. Another component of the mystery. Attitude influences all. I know and I do not practice. Practice, practice, practice. Another key (Qi) to the universe. Move and practice with intention, with attitude.

Well, so much for today's mumbo-jumbo pep talk. Time now for serious thoughts. Oh, yeah! Let there be thought. Let there be movement. Let there be--well, just let there be.

The day creeps on in its petty pace. Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fry. Munch, crunch, it's time for lunch. Now that's a serious thought. Let's go.
