DAY 12
SURPRISE!

DAY 11
WATER

I AM A WATER BEARER.
AQUARIUS


Marked by an open mind and inquiring intellect, natives of Aquarius are born from 20th January to 19th February. This zodiac bears the symbol of the Water Bearer which implies the flowing gift of knowledge and humanity. Also its glyph depicts the water from the vessel of the Water Bearer which again stands for open-ended spiritual energy.
Among the most distinctive traits of the Aquarius is their keen intellect. They use the powers of their probing mind not only to understand the workings of various systems and philosophies but also find ways to make them perform better. Thus they are not merely intelligent but also highly innovative and inventive. They are also differentiated from mere theorists by their genuine altruistic nature. Like the symbol of the Water Bearer which marks this zodiac sign, Aquarians believe in carrying the gifts of knowledge and thought and pouring it out for humanity. And just like the water that is poured forth by the Bearer contains life-giving and life-sustaining powers, so too the knowledge and progressive ideas that the Aquarius spreads around are likely to replenish and rejuvenate humanity. They are drawn to ideas, social systems and kinds of knowledge that will make the world a better place to live in and as a result many famous reformers and progressive thinkers have come from their ranks. Few things put off an Aquarian more easily than evidence of mean-mindedness or petty behavior in a fellow human and while they may not embody the spirit of selfless service in their actions like a Virgo, they are nevertheless deeply concerned about how knowledge and innovation can help bring about positive change. And like it is in the nature of water to spread out and level itself, so the intellectual concerns of the Aquarius are oriented towards equality and progress for all.

DAY 5
MOVEMENT

This is about as good as it gets for me today as far as movement.
I was up in the night with Louis and think I irritated my back a little bit more.
Marilyn may be reading her latest movie scripts in bed, but I will be reading the history of birth.
BIRTH by Tina Cassidy has been so eye-opening, sad, and awesome in taking me through
the whole evolution from home, community births back in the day to medical, surgical current births. It is truly fascinating how women have come so far in many ways and how long, slow, and passive we can be when it comes to our own awareness of our bodies and souls.
Making the best of this time.

DAY 25
LUNCHTIME



CHRISTMAS BRUNCH
Speaking of tradition, this sausage casserole has been part of my life every Christmas since I can remember. My granny Green would have it as one of her side dishes at her Christmas morning feasts with all my cousins. But since we don't eat meat I have changed up the recipe with Morning Star sausage. I swear it's good. And let's be real when anything is drowned in sharp cheese IT IS AWESOME!


John John asked for REAL BACON,
and a Foosball table for Christmas. LMAO!!
 He is NOT a vegetarian!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
 



DAY 24
TRADITION/something you always do

 
LUMINARIAS are a New Mexican staple each holiday season.

DAY 17
ON THE FLOOR
 
I COULD NOT HAVE PLANNED IT ANY BETTER!
 I came home from running errands today to find shredded wrapping paper and an almost open box ON THE FLOOR!
While cleaning up I found pieces of the gift tag that read
 "To: Hannah, From: Marezy".
After cleaning up all the paper I re-wrapped Hannah's present. I think it is safe to say that there must be something tasty in there since NONE of the other presents under the tree had been touched! LOL (p.s. I'm pretty sure I know what it is, and Hannah is going to be carrying it around for months!)

DAY 16
SOMETHING YOU CREATED

 MY QUOTE JOURNALS
I did a ton of writing, praying, observing myself , and LISTENING to my spirit in Guatemala over 15 years ago. I was always jotting down my awareness's I had during the day. And copying down other quotes I had seen or heard that I knew had to be a part of my journals. There were so many miracles that took place there I will forever be humbled. And ironically none of them had to do with the religion. It was ALL SPIRITUAL. Here are 3 of those sweet reminders that even today when I read them my spirit firmly, and joyfully says, "YES!".

DAY 15
OUTDOORS
This is how I prefer to do the out doors!

 I AM SO IN LOVE WITH GREEN

DAY 14
SOMETHING GREEN

Green is the color of nature, fertility, life. Grass green is the most restful color. Green symbolizes self-respect and well being. Green is the color of balance. It also means learning, growth and harmony. Green is a safe color, if you don't know what color to use anywhere use green.
Green is favored by well balanced people. Green symbolizes the master healer and the life force. It often symbolizes money. It was believed green was healing for the eyes. Egyptians wore green eyeliner. Green eye shades are still used. You should eat raw green foods for good health. Friday is the day of green. Green jade is a sacred stone of Asia.

DAY 10
UNDER

I loved this picture the second I saw it. It reminded me of when I lived in Hawaii and was introduced to this incredibly healing water process called Watsu. Water is such a peaceful place. Quiet and womb-like. I have been so blessed in my life to travel and experience different cultures, traditions, and ways of life. All of these experiences not only opened my heart, but have shown me how the Divine truly is all around me.
agape, nameste, aloha,

oh, and p.s. i want that chandelier! ha ha
