5 Acres of Solitude

Thanks again to Lloyd for making me look at this lazy streak I seem to be harboring/denying. Upon reflection I asked, If I have a lazy streak, what does it look like? What am I doing when I’m being lazy? Watching tv was the first answer. Then came Watching tv when Spitit says turn it off. Smoking when Spirit says No, No, No. Eating fried chicken when Spirit says no again. Conclusion……..I am being lazy when I am not following Spiritual Guidance. Which is what Scott Peck was saying in The Road Less Traveled (not People of the Lie…….he was saying something else in that book. I misswrote in my last blog entry.)Sooooo………yesterday Spirit said wash windows, so I washed windows in my new green house. Felt good. Looked good. Today, Spirit said write in your blog, so I did. I’ll send a photo of my clean windows when I remember how……….Love, Lynne 

It has come to my attention that a few of my friends check this blog occasionally to see if I have written anything. How cool. Thanks. And thanks for calling me lazy, Lloyd. I must have needed to hear it. Scott Peck, in People of the Lie, said we do not make the positive choices because we are lazy. I didn’t like reading that in his book and I didn’t like hearing the term applied to me. But I think I get it. Been denying that I have a lazy streak for a long time. Been blaming it on the heat.Soo…….if I haven’t been writing in my blog, what have I been doing???? Mainly whining about only having 6 weeks of vacation this summer. I had a full 3 months last summer……..Memorial Day to Labor Day. The way God intended school vacations to be. I needed every day of it too. I was dealing with stuff and moving to my Airstream in the forest. This year I’m still hoping to move into my new house. Could use more than a measly 6 weeks of summer vacation, though. But alas, whining is getting me NO sympathy. Especially not from my friends who don’t work in the public schools.Thanks for the inspiration to write. Always makes me feel good when I do.Love, Lynne
