I am prepping through out the day creating paper snowflakes to hang around the ship. There I feel like the world is filled with wonder and friends that do understand. A beautiful boat created by us here at DS . At first we started the cruises with DarkGypsy's glitter sub. It swung the oceans and the universe. Equipped well by Scotty with warp drive....and of course the magic...

Then Lily found a boat and of was instilled with magic that can create that peaceful place that we are told to find to promote relaxation and just to breath. If you want for anything or special comforts , you need only blink blink and Calypso provides it.
We play relax and share what makes us feel better...together.
There is also a van for on the road excursions The Violet Vanguard, parking is never a problem! And it is there with just a blink at our disposal, shopping the Magnificent mile or just a shoreline shell collecting day trip...use it as you wish.

...as many here know I have to do art.
I am surprised at the body of work that has come out of my time on Calypso, shared with you here, my friends.
hugs, read, play and enjoy our own place that we know.

If the work issues were not enough, I have so many health issues. It looks like I may have a heart problem. I'm scheduled to go in the operating room at the end of the month to determine once and for all if I have what is called a PFO-a small hole in the heart that you are born with that causes blood clots to pass through the left and right atria, and go up to the brain. They think this is what...
A friend from the first months here shared something that is so clear on the cause and effect of personal choices. If the path is destined to end on the rocks? do I stay on that path to gather the last of the flowers? Or turn a new direction with what I have already gathered as enough?
The thought contrary for me, is that I like rocks, I learned to draw there as a child and they , because of that have been a place of solace.
But if I apply it as a dead end that has sharp rocks, would I still stay on that path until my knees were bloodied from trying to gather the last flower it had to offer.
My knees are already scarred by many such paths which I eventually had to turn from to save myself from. I left those paths very hurt and had to crawl against the winds that now joined the push.
I am still here.
I choose to be here
I will have to choose that everyday in the choices of paths I take.
Sorting ensues.

let's fill this place up with it, it already is : ) but we can add more, it stretches, like giggle packs - we can squeeze more love in, then it distributes wherever there may be an empty place in someone
*Jewells added that stretchy quality from our episode in the green jello pool!!
i am loving all the various seating areas, that can so easily be moved about and rearranged however we like. all delicious looking couches and big chairs that are even more comfty than they look and all the rustic tables and metal bits and pieces we've found or created to use as an end table here or to hold a lovely vase of flowers over there.
so many back drops to hang people's art ; ) we have needed that, not that it wasn't there, but the highlighting of it is nice. letting this area take up two decks was an excellent plan. we still have the little winding stairways leading to small seating areas with little collections for viewing and enjoying. lots of creative minds, sensitives get PTSD. this is a gentle atmosphere for us. nothing harsh or glaring.
Nd the plants! they seem to fill the air with a gentle scents of natural aroma therapy.
That big Victorian styled couch has my eye. I may just curl upon it a blink up a movie....hmmm
"Retirada" by Jaime Roos
My favorite Carnaval song from Uruguay. We're in the Carnaval season right now. This one starts with a homesick verse written about a guy like me missing Carnaval back in Uruguay. Then the chorus takes him home.
doo, that rain was awesome last night. it watered Loo's secret garden again. this time though, it left the most tiny sparkles all over the plants and it looks extra magic there now : )

Costume and parades....enjoy!
for now, I am taking the best advice ev errrr, and having a nice, lonnng rest. I found this music that is working to relax me, I will share it.
I found my nook to rest in : ) There is a lovely tinkling fountain with just the right amount of sound to relax. the nook has lots of places on the walls for the plants to be and they are climbing all around and hanging about, so it feels a lot like the garden, but is inside so I am nice and warm. this little spot is not closed but feels private as there are big plants sort of buffering it from any other area, softening all sound except for this music playing softly and lulling me to sleep...
