I have listened to no music today except in the early morning. Tomorrow is medicine Buddha puja: I better show up. Especially now that my tibetan khenpo is back from asia to conduct the pujas. I am having a cider tonight. The wind is stupendous today: so strong and singing. We are truly blessed to live here like we do. May this good fortune continue until we both die! Om mani pémé hung

I keep in touch with a bunch of people and family and friends. Eric, danny, Senor plume and JF come to mind. And both my families too. Even with sister! Things are going so much better than in the earlier years here. Thank goodness for good medicine. And not living at poverty level!
