It's Getting Spooky Up In Here

As usual, Halloween in Vermont proves to be a bust - flurries in the forecast.
If I was dressing up today, this is who I'd be -



Instead, I will go as something a little more spooky: a limping pregnant woman in a puffy coat!

Speaking of pregnancy, check out my power cord! Dude, it's so heavy!!


I got inspired by the power cord to pick out my own bead, and I chose a piece of turquoise that reminds me of a dolphin.


Dolphins are now my and Pico's spirit animals for her quickly approaching continuation and birth.

Dolphins: Kindness and Play
The beautiful, graceful, sleek dolphin carries many messages for the two-legged. Even though it is a mammal, its home is the sea and has mastered the art of breath control. Since water is the symbol of all life - of creation, passion and even sexuality - dolphin brings us teachings from the waters of life. Playful creatures, dolphins have long entertained man with their joyful antics.

Dolphin reminds us that time to play is a crucial element to walk in balance. It moves through the water quickly and with great grace. Dolphin tells us to move with the ebb and flow of life, and not to search for brick walls to smash into, for to spend our energy fighting the current gets us nowhere. Dolphin medicine includes change, wisdom, balance, harmony, communication skills, freedom, trust, understanding the power of rhythm in your life, use of breath to release intense emotions, water power.
