Senior Deliquent & Who Came to Breakfast?

Posted on May 28th, 2008 by Dryad : Coming Home Dryad


This is a message to everyone who I owe a letter or who might have of wondered if I had fallen of the face of the Gaia. Strange things are afoot.

Last week I was so bad I couldn’t sit up most days and didn’t even get to the computer. It got to the point I was afraid that they would come in one day and I would be gone. There would be just a lump of pain sitting there - kind of a viscous, mucilaginous glob the color of rotten meat - differing colors of grey and brown with green accessories. It would be throbbing, a constant low beating sound that went up everyone’s nostrils and made them hold their heads. Someone would gasp, “WHAT have you done with our Dryad?!” and there would be this huge, gross, satisfied belch.

My insomnia thinks that it is still in charge. I have, however, also been sleeping; often 18 hours at a time. I've decided to view this as a good thing. A glass 3/4 full instead of 1/4 empty. Until someone tells me differently: it is not some new die-ease, but just my body trying to get with the program and get me well. I have been walking on my new Nordic track and going upside down on my new inversion table. Eternal blessings to Rapunzel (Jeannie) for telling me how well they work and encouraging me to get one. It actually hurts really bad right now, but I can feel the spine stretching and lengthening, so the disks (who mistakenly believe they are balloons) will slide back into place. Like any exercise, I am getting less sore every time I use it.

I have also been hit with a huge creative surge. Unfortunately, said creative surge, was not accompanied by sudden magical organizational skills. Its almost the opposite. I’ll be going along doing something and suddenly get a great new idea. Then I run off and start something else. I try to go back to what I was doing before, just when I get started working again, I remember I HAD to tell someone something . . .

So while I finish the six letters that are started . . .the three paintings . . . the one huge collection I’ve been working on for months . . . and, Oh yeah! Those new Boards over at Play Pod that everyone has begun to believe are fictional . . . I thought I’d put this up. It is titled “Who Came To Beakfast?" It started out being "Breakfast With Seuss." Then I looked up and there was Salvador Dali playing with the marmalade. I actually had it up here and ready to post when Henri
Matisse stuck his head out of the kitchen and said, "Isn't there any coffee? Did VanGogh put it ALL in the paint?"  It’s kind of like those “Find It” Pictures that used to be in Highlights Magazine. Anyone remember that? This is what I did while I was supposed to be doing all of the above.

Is there such a thing as a Senior
Senior Deliquent?

I would say get a “body brush” that you can get from a Natural Foods Coop Store, it will be in their non-foods section.

Love, Love and more Love!  Have been checking in to see if you were “here” and delighted to see that you did in fact remain vertical to write this post.  That my friend is progress considering all that you have experienced…sleep, sleep and sleep some more and let yourself heal.  We love you and miss you, but are delighted when you are here.  More than that glad when you are in your “healing chamber of slumber”…

Be well!

Love and Hugs!!!

Did you write this? Or did I??? So exactly describes my life in the past month it's uncanny. And then again, I think it describes me overall the past years actually, or me in a nutshell.
Loving you.

Am sure you know you're always in my prayers, Dryad. Am delighted to experience your marvellous art yet again, peps me up and brightens my days. In two days my husband will be physically present with me again, a month flew by so fast. Catch more positive vibes, hugs, love, light, and healing energy from the Himalayas to ease your pains and hasten your recuperation.

She rises
flame and caribbean blue
phoenix from the ashes

I saw you
atop the mountain
radiant and reborn

I welcome you
come from your trial by fire
rite of passage

I salute you
blazing your trail through
the valley of death

I honor you
and all the lineages
at whose head you stand

I greet you
noble and proud
reaching for your own song

May every daughter born of woman
and every son
know this Becoming
