FILM SET CATERING...A BLAST



Two and a half days on set with James Wood shooting a short: "Ayammwahu", yes it's a made up name, and I think I have found the right constellation to what will be my livelihood and  a place of employment for friends and stellar talent in the years to come.
Combining the skills, talent and enthusiasm of the last 40 years of my life "Food - Film - Service" come together to form a new Film Set Catering buziness with an emphasis of using organic, green and nourishing foods for the crafts people and artists on set.
Some pics of the last job.
I need to find the right name for this business...will you please help?
Please post your ideas in the comment section!
Thank you.
My deep gratitude to the producer of this film: Dionisio Ceballos, who had faith in my ability and put the money where his faith is.
And last not least God in form of my meditation teacher who has brought all of us together and brings out the best in me.

Wah Washington state is so beautiful!



Camping with Tom's family attending a natural wedding in God's lap.
Super cool. Completely recharged all atoms of my body and mind with green green rolling meadows, bears, kids, trees everywhere, a sleeping lady mountain, yes here too, Mt Tamalpais sister.
Got to play photographer and camera girl too.
That big blue tent is where Tom and I slept, we had real twin size mattresses, super luxe camping. The outdoor showers amongst the trees behind our tent had those European gas water heaters that heat only the water you use...it totally worked.

CHOOSING NEW RESPONSES

...is what today and the current curriculum in God's university is all about.
My boyfriend says something thats true to him and honors his need and my first reaction is: F U!
Then I look at it again...a little softer....well, he says what he needs and thinks.
Thats OK.

I can let it go.

More and more...easier and easier... especially when there is lots of space and time and things to do that I love.

Today I saw my new home!
Long white and other light colored fabrics where swaying a warm breeze...very clean floor, warm and open and clear...inviting to stretch, dance, paint, collage, even prep food...yup that clean:)

A sanctuary for my mind, body and soul.
Safe, clean, spacious, mine.

"The Heart is the hub of all sacred places...go there and roam."
My new space is an external manifestation of my heart...and I can have you over for dinner and tea.

PERSONAL PARTICIPATION IS VITAL...

From photo journaling a friend giving birth, to experiencing the depth of emotional surgery, all in one day, same time, same place same peeps...Help!

Driving back from this near death experience, new life, letting go of expectations, knowing that I am on my own and not alone (or almost knowing that), I saw how much I need gentleness, healing, nurturing and sweet kind loving. If my partner cannot bring that, do I have to:
a) let him go and find a new one
b) let him go and be on my own
c) allow my friends to help
OK...I C:)

More later.

I'm soooo lucky!


When is enough really enough?

It's when you walk away feeling free'er...with a bounce in your step...even lightheaded, knowing you have completed a cycle, learned your lessons, asked for your defects to be removed, let it cut deeper and BINGO.

You are free.

On to the next assignment.
Maybe take a little vacation.

Baths. Manicure and pedicure. Hair color. Read several great books. See movies in a theater enjoying the freedom of your own Love & Respect.

Forgive and forget.

Open to Love again.
Wholeheartedly.
Honestly.
Sweetly.

Always giving it your best.
Thats you Jules.
Kudos.

Appreciation goes a long way.

Partnership is just that. A ship. Reliable, seaworthy, beautiful, clean and spacious enough for creativity and lovely play. The rats will always jump ship first. The captain stays. Stay Jules, in partnership with God, your Creator and loving presence whispering sensual secrets into your ear, only for your lovers to hear.
Lovers come and go.
God remains.

Still on my 7th step.
Ouch.

SLIDES OF LIFE

Guess what?....
