Writing a post and ignoring my need for breakfast.....

While one of my friends may tease me, I still think this weekend is extraordinarily windy. It makes me think deeper about the symbolism of wind, winds of change.....all in all, it makes me think something of significance is about to happen.

Your mind might be led to think of some suspenseful movie where the winds outside are causing things to move like gates, swings, windchimes, etc....

Wind provides ability for travel, primarily on the water. In this sense, if you are a sailor, windsurfer, etc, wind is something you look forward to. Also, in these instances, there is no time for mundane chores like sweeping leaves, as they will all be scattered again after any progress is accomplished.

What does God say about wind? I am thinking of the Winds of the Spirit.

Some pastor commented that before anything happens in the spiritual, it takes place first in the natural. So, in a spiritual sense, this should create excitement for someone trusting in God.

And of course, one feels most comforted and safe sometimes inside, in the stillness. So to, let us find rest in the stillness and peace of God.

Earlier this morning, I was on a website for current San Francisco wind trends. Every four seconds or so, the speed or the direction would change. To me, the speed was interesting, not the direction.

But now I am thinking of how easily, and randomly wind changes direction. One cannot predict what it will be in the next moment. The wind outside my window is completely whipping through the trees. To me, it seems like every direction at once.

Obviously the directions do matter to God since they are mentioned in the Bible as in Job where it reads, "I will scatter them as with an EAST wind before the enemy". Maybe each direction symbolises something specific.

I am reading many verses right now which contain the word "wind". It seems that the East wind is not a good thing, and also I am getting a sense that when the wind comes, it is a time for us to be vigilent, watchful, mindful, and sober; just to name a few.

Well, we definately cannot control the wind. But Jesus has power over the wind. He has the power to speak to it, and it is still!

I love this verse in John 3:8, "The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

All I can say right now about Revelations 7:1 is "Wow!" "After these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree."

It's facinating to understand what controls and causes the wind be it planetary rotation, air pressure, etc. That is definately something all of us could delve into for scientific understanding.

Coffee in Bed

It's 10:24. I'll be at Joe's house by 11:30 at this rate. At one I'll pick him up at his camp and we'll jet on over to the beach/Chrissy Fields. We'll be bringin' shovels, volleyball, and other stuff. Haven't seen him for two weeks, it'll be good. Supposed to be keepin' a journal, but bloggin' now because it's better than nothin'

Productive and Satisfying Monday

Joe was so sweet today. Often times when we see our favorite subway musicians, we like to support their cause....especially Mr. Banjo Player at Embarcadero station.

Today, Joe asked me, "Can I borrow a dollar from you for the if I pay you back when we get home?" It was so sweet, and when we got home he remembered right away! He even tried to pay me for both the musicians, but I explained to him that one of the dollars was from me.

We got a bonus today because in addition to cute older asian dude with the ancient/traditional chinese violin style instrument, we also listened to two songs from Banjo dude. We love banjo dude, almost as much as I love accordian dude, whom I've yet to see these days, as I think it's been two months.....

Speaking of "dude" I wonder if I can appreciate the Big Lebowski like others do without being under the influence.

Que Sera Sera seems so blase

Gettin' organized to finish up my case with my March injury.

Got all the main records and X-rays two days ago, and now need to tie up all the loose ends.

This will require:

Obtaining a receipt from my accupuncturist, goin' back to St. Mary Phillipa clinic and SF Gen and gettin' all trivial receipts, ie ER and Urgent Care visits.

Need to get to my storage unit for many reasons, but for the most part, to organize it, and then bring home my white table for the sake of organizing all my evidence for the case.

Trying to figure out if a notebook or file system works best.....

On a lighter-side, so excited about day with Joe and Zane tommorow, Friday.

Some cool plans for Saturday, let's see what will pan out. Need to calendar and journal to prioritize...

food is good

Besides having a fractured rib and all the lovely benefits that come with it......
.....life is good!

Got my laundry rollin', finally returning to eating healthy, and eating for that matter.....

Realizing a lot about relationships these days, especially after the incident.

My back is all funkified, I'll have to write again later.....

Dashboard Confessional

Ooh, it's Thursday, a glorious morning, I'm at starbucks in the Marina, and I love it here!

Seeing the interactions going on throughout the morning, seeing the trainers and staff from 24-hour fitness next door, and just watching people taking part in their coffee ritual.

My fractured rib pain impeded any attempts to continue sleeping this morning, so, for the second morning in a row I am up at 7am. Usually I sleep in until 8 or so....

Feelin' like an old lady, I towed my little Container Store wire cart with my old laptop down 3 blocks to the Starbucks.

I yelped, replied to emails, and I'm about to leave to the Verizon Store nearby.
I didn't properly put the cap back on Joe's waterbottle in his backpack yesterday, and I put my cellphone in the same pocket.

I am on Hydrocodone, I think I am saying this wrong. Anyways, I took 2 for the pain this morning, and it took awhile to kick in, but I can really feel it. Makes me a bit spacey, a bit extra alert, I can think of words faster when I write....

People have told me to be careful when I stop. IE, tapering off....
I wonder how long the pain will last. When I wake up in the morning, and at the end of the day, that's when it hurts the most.

First acupuncture treatment in my life this afternoon.

Have to go get the police report, I guess I have to go to city hall.

Need to cancel my gym membership for a month. Maybe I will get into walking a lot, ie Ft Mason and onto North Beach.

Life is good :)

Boomerang

I just arrived home about 12am, and I am once again confronted, to put it mildly, with my clutter.

I think I am going to start a clutter support group, and that is only half in jest....

Babysteps right? But sometimes babysteps go too slow :)

Well, all good intentions have been nullified by the distraction of the internet.

So, goodnight blog-land, and goodnight moon....
