I wish I could have gotten new magazines and played with paper for this month's dreamboard but with a hurt shoulder, my own photographs have gotta do.
Update: Great! I ask for better timing and for things to improve and find out there is a hurricane on its way here. Crap!
Can you feel the intensity of the Pisces Moon? I sure can. I feel very emotional, brimming strong feelings and am really upset with the timing of things going on. Going to the blueberry fest here was a complete disaster. I am getting invoices for someone with a different name. The ending of movies getting ruined at the theatre. Getting stood up for an interview I was supposed to do with someone (not the Globe and Mail, I hope! I was interviewed about gelatin and it is supposed to be published in the food section tomorrow). Opportunities coming my way that I have to say no to because of health issues. It SUCKS!
I need to turn my luck around. I need the timing of things to be better. Most of all, I need my shoulder to heal so I can get back to life.
As an update to that bizarre chiropractic sleeping experience I had last week, I was going to go to a chiropractor but changed my mind. I had made the appointment and everything. But then all this ridiculous stuff happened and it just made me feel like putting my health in a guy's bone-breaking hands in a place that really has only been bad luck to me is not a wise decision. Perhaps when I am back west I will consider it but for now I am going to go back to the one healing practice that has always help: yoga.
I have been practicing for 13 years and since moving here, I rarely do it. Yoga requires the ability to be OK with where you are at and with how you are feeling which in the past has helped me cope with chronic pain. Considering I am now living in a place I do not want to be, yoga has become almost impossible for me to do on a regular basis. I am not OK with being here. Still, I will try to get back into it, help open up my shoulder again and find my very lost inner yogi who I think is still hanging out with the Garry oak trees on Vancouver Island.
Despite living in a place that feels wrong and living with an illness that sucks the life out of me and wants break me into tiny pieces, I still want to live up to my potential. I am still a writer, I am still a photographer, I still have much to give to the world. Thank you for helping me make my dreams come true.

You are most definitely a writer and a photographer. I always enjoy reading what you say and just hope someday that my pictures can make the impact that yours do. Yoga is a wonderful thing to practice. I am so glad you are going to have it become an important part of your life again.
What powerful words you write here.... so lovely.
I love that you used your own images. They have such a YOU energy and finally... your words...
>> I am still a writer, I am still a photographer, I still have much to give to the world.>> AMEN and YES! indeed...
See My Fullmoon dreamboard!
Great dreamboard. Hope things go better for you.
I don't what I would describe Aug as but it always had it lost personalty. Coffee is on.
Suzie, thanks for sharing authentically about where you are. It is so easy to let a blog become the place one only shares their pretty side. Hearing of your difficulty is refreshing. I am wondering if your life will become unstuck when your shoulder does...or vice versa. On behalf of my own Body Wisdom Keeper, I welcome your Yogini back into the process. May she and your body have a good time getting to know one another once again.
Best wishes and deep healing, Rae!
I hope things turn around for you soon, and I'm sending healing thoughts. There are gentle body alignment disciplines out there, so you don't have to turn to a chiropractor. Keep asking around, and perhaps the right method for YOU will surface.
clean and clear intention! Things will start turning around again for you. x
You are still giving much to the world, despite the challenges you face. But it's hard to live in a place that doesn't "fit."
Sending prayers for healing, growth, and ocean dreams that come true.
May your healing be quick.
Your dreamboard is powerful - love your photography.
Take care of yourself!
This pisces moon had left me full of feeling..a little bit too much for me. I am hoping you feel better soon. You keep on doing your writing and photography. Who we are to me is what we love the best.
Sending you much love and healing, Suzie.
Powerful and to the point! I really like how the blue tones tie everything together, and that you used your own images. :)
May your healing come swiftly.
