Well I disappeared for awhile and fell off the Reverb wagon because—that time of year I think. Also family drama. Kat McNally asks about the way forward and Project Reverb wants to know about gratitude. Since I’m behind and back dating this. I’m going to be succinct. I am grateful …
Kat McNally’s prompt asks us to consider self-compassion: The Buddha said, “You, yourself, as much as anybody else in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.†While Project Reverb asks if I was an introvert or extrovert this year. It really is interesting to me how I find connections between these …
A Peace of Clothing. Sorry I couldn’t resist. Every year I wear out several black cardigans of varying weights. They are my armor, my uniform. I started wearing cardigans because I didn’t want to wear blazers. I wear blazers now, usually vintage men’s but still I go back to cardigans. I …
Word and Habit… What word can guide me through 2014. The word for 2013 seems to have been upheaval unfortunately. For 2014? Possibly steady. I like steady. I want to be steady in my work. Showing up, doing well. No conflict, no difficulty just turning out good product and helping …
I think I don’t have a thousand words, so how about these. This is the difference happiness makes: This is all I need to know.
Kat Mcnally asks that we describe our year in terms of our five senses. Project Reverb wants to know what kept us anchored Well…J and Em kept me anchored. They always do. They are the reason I wake up in the morning and why I kept trying to make a …
So Project Reverb wants to know what I ate , while Kat McNally asks what was my best decision I’m afraid I have a bit of catching up to do, so this unlike my usual long winded entries, will be brief. Best Meal? Either the night our dinner group went to …
My days are a bit jumbled up but I think that’s ok with Reverb. What I like about reverb is that there are guidelines but you can bend them. That helps. Too strict and it turns into a death march , too loose and you don’t continue. Or that is …
And Project Reverb asks about  Failure while Kat McNally and Rachel Maddox  wonder: Today, identify something muddy that kept recurring for you throughout 2013, and then ask yourself this: What’s the clear truth underneath this damn mud if I finally wash myself clean?  And they are of course related. I …
Inspiration and Auto pilot. Two diametrically opposed forces. If you are inspired you certainly aren’t on autopilot. I find people who are strongly themselves inspiring. My friend Beth someone I’ve known for quite sometime, because her brother is one of my longest and dearest friendships…is now someone I care about quite …
There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.
I suppose if you look at things from a more optimistic point of view, they turn out to be adventures, not terrifying hurtles down the side of an icy mountain on a trashcan lid at a high rate of speed right? I hope in the years to come that this …
Well then…I don’t take many selfies because I photograph quite badly. Always have. I never learned to gothgirl thing of posing for the camera. I think the back of my head might be my best side. There was a picture I liked of myself…it doesn’t just have me in it, …
And in the middle of a very hard time in my life I got an amazing present from Mr. J. I got a birthday party. I love remembering people’s birthdays—more than Christmas because to me I am saying to them “I am glad you are here on this planet, you …
For Project Reverb it is Challenge , while Kat McNally asks us about taking risks. Which again are so closely related. Because a challenge is a risk and a risk is a challenge.  Mostly. I’m a bit tired… Mr. man has been away all week on business and I’m in my …
So today Kat Mcnally’s prompt concerns grieving and Project Reverb asks about hindsight. Funny how these seem to be working together from the beginning—one influencing another, informing another, enhancing another. I am grieving the loss of time. Time given to dead ends. Time spent trying to mend the twisted and burned …
So I can find two sites—the project reverb site and Kat McNally’s site Could anyone tell me—is there an overarching site that collects all these prompts or are they ad hoc sites set up ? I guess I’m used to nablopomo and how that works, I think this is different. …
The prompts from both places are similar…what nourished your soul this year, what was your best moment. I would say we haven’t had many of them this year but we have had some… Halloween, our 13th anniversary and a houseful of kids and their families in our spooky house was …
