About Me
I'm 48, recently divorced, a semi retired shaman of the Lakota Nation. I'm the published author of a murder mystery: "Under the Mesa Blanca bridge". I work as a wedding officiant, marrying people in love. ============== Serious ParrotHead; if I'm online, RadioMargaritaville.com is probably playing. Otherwise oldies & jazz.

Ok gotta go xxxxoooo
Little Love
Excellent plan!!! I just spent my morning outside watching the animals and trees... the ring necks are all around the house now and they are all singing and my doves are getting so excited. It is beautiful! Life is good Bear, no matter what life is good!
Hug
You are the very best! i am going to have lunch with a sponsee in a few minutes, but i will be here the rest of the day after that. Will you spend the day with me MY Bear? Around say... 4?
Little Love
too many and too muches! MY Bear!
Hug
thank you Bear, yes Phil has an outreach worker - they are better than social workers, he is receiving some kind of help. Though he has to work through this with his own tools, I hate seeing him in so much pain. I am here and he knows it. Sometimes I am not the right person to talk to about this. Cos being mum I get uppity about it. and that does nobody any good.. that silly trout (max muv) needs more help than anyone can give her.
