If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much. - Jim Rohn

At the House of a Thousand Projects, a lot of old trash piles that had accumulated over the last ten years has been, or are in the process of, going to the dump or being recycled. The greenhouse is one of the next projects, as is the continuation of the cutting back and burning of the blackberries around the house and garage, and working on the field that will be the garden. Scored another geocaching Find by Day of Year; only two more that can be gotten (one in October, one in November) before this list ends.

Spent the day recovering from working the PDX Decompression all day yesterday, where Hazelnut and I worked as a Ranger. My puja preparation continues, as I continue Bhoga to Shakti as part of Rangering. Meditation as a practice is coming back fairly easily, and is revealing a need for me to eat better and take care of my body as a temple. New food: after Rangering, we went to Montage, where I tried Spold Mac (#68). Awesome foil-wrapped leftovers! New word: kunik, an Inuit word, most commonly referred to as an "Eskimo kiss" or the act of rubbing noses together (a greeting and form of affection in their culture).
