DANCING

dancing, it's where i found my soul bare soles taught me to bare my soul hardwood floors, bouncy, scuffed, sticky floors, fields, pavements, walkways and isles, dancing is my souls style. swift and free, glide, slide, rules must never be applied, dance with me! feel the groove, see what happens when suave and grace are combined, dancefloors i peruse, no awareness of anything that disapproves. on dark days, my soul cries and wants to make waves, turning me like tides and sending me round in strides, my soul finds itself needing to return to the motion of earth, blessing or a curse, missing out on the beat is something i find much worse. one thing must be known, i do this for myself, just my soul on its own, and if you could, don't ask if im any good, you won't get a blank shrug, or a thank you hug, instead you may just get a fist to the mug. rejuvenation in the raves, peace in the positions, ecstacy in extensions, wonder in being wild. ive loved it ever since a child, i hope my souls dancing fever never grows mild. from the dancefloor i hope im never exiled.

The beauty of leaving things in their place and time

Back in the spring/summer of 2020, I helped tether myself to reality by dancing. I woke up and danced. I ate lunch and danced. I danced into the evening. Every day was filled with me dancing mostly alone in my living room. I shared a lot of my dancing on instagram, most of it to close friends only. As we were all in the thick of it together, it didn't feel weird to do so. Something that would feel egotistical and embarrassing now was acceptable then. I would love to share my dancing once again, but the path has yet to reveal itself. I am always navigating the balance of wanting to be private and wanting to be seen on the internet. One day, maybe, you'll find me on here willing to bare my dancing soul. Until then, I look back to those mainly awful months of 2020 with gratitude for the virtual connection I was able to have.

dancing in my room

find me daNcing in my room. alonE. nO one to watch me. find me moving to musiC hoW it feels right to me. find me juMping up and down. find me moving sustAined. find me in betwEen. but you won't find me - for once the eYes of others fall upon me, my mind drIfts and the movement I once made so freely vanishes into the aiR. perhaps I need to dance alone in a crowded place we shall sEe.

BREATHING

When I feel scared or anxious, wow... Breathing. Sleeping is a solid second place.

BEESWAX CLOTHS

I've been wanting to do this for yearrrrs. Finally. FINALLYYY. It doesn't stick to glass, but it does stick to itself. 100% cotton fabric, prewash and dry. Cut with a shearing scissors to prevent fraying. (Or hem.) I opted for a 1:1:1 ratio of beeswax, coconut oil, and pine resin. Double boiler to melt. Apply less and layer the wax as needed. Mm... Spreading with a spoon did not work as well as a silicone brush. Iron under parchment paper to spread + seal. (Or bake at 200⁰ F briefly.) Hottt water + soap for clean up (hands, utensils, etc.) Cold water to clean the cloths, as needed. *A steamer can take out any wax mix spills on the floor. (We listen, and we don't judge ) I love it. It made my kitchen smell like pine and propolis.

GUERILLA GARDENING

*Native* Seed B*mbs. The local wildlife will love you for it. TLDR: Mix native seeds with soil, clay, and water, forming them into balls and then letting them dry. Long form: Native wildflower seeds, compost, clay (powder or clay soil), and water. Mix Ingredients: Combine the clay and compost in a bowl, ensuring a 3:1 ratio of clay to compost. Gradually add water while mixing, aiming for a dough-like consistency. Add Seeds: Incorporate the native wildflower seeds into the mixture. Form Balls: Pinch off small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls, roughly 1-inch in diameter. Dry and Store: Place the seed balls on a flat surface to dry for 24-48 hours in a cool, shady place. Store the dried balls in a cardboard box until ready to plant. Distribute: Scatter the seed balls in your desired planting area.
