Not everything in a chrysalis becomes a butterfly

HAD to write that down...a few weeks ago, I noticed a curled up leaf on my priced peppermint plant that grew almost overnight into a healthy monster spreading it's uplifting essential oils all over the new yard.
So, I look at this leaf, notice it;s a chrysalis of sorts...here is where it gets tricky...I choose a sentimental route, knowing deep inside it's not a butterfly and Bingo...I have the worst pest on that plant with moth like creatures all day that produce nasty little worms that eat...get this...peppermint only, it seems.
The tomatoes and oregano in the same planter are ok...it's a mint specific plague. That's actually the good news.
I'll look it up and see if there is a natural way to eradicate...might just cut it down to the roots which are super strong and let those critters die out.
Uhm...other than that things are going great at the new ranch.
Truly.

MOVED.....AGAIN. I KNOW...

"Moving is so uprooting...even if it's to a super cool place I love...kinda like re-potting a plant, always takes time to establish a sense of harmony."

CELEBRATING FULL MOON IN BOLINAS

Our friend Vicky has me take care of her dogs while she is getting body care herself... coinciding with a full moon oceanside in Bolinas, Dawn's birthplace, just a few days before her birthday.

A gift of the gods, again.

When great things like this happen, I don't ask myself, what did I do?

I just feel in the flow and grateful for having a clean and sober life with my boyfriend and growing family.

My prayers go out to Vicky, my family and for the flow of abundance in our lives. 

Tonight is full moon and I look forward to a walk on the beach lit of by the pearlescent rays of luna herself.

Yummmm...
