Maybe I'll be back

Nearing a five year hiatus - my what time has done. So many changes, life moving and flowing as freely as we let it. New births and deaths as part of the ever changing cycle. I've become a mother of two babies in this time span and have made our home 20 miles north from our past one. Life is good. Maybe a little more mundane, but nonetheless grateful for these changes. I'm not sure If I'll continue blogging here, I tend to prefer writing in a physical journal these days when I actually find the time. But it does feel good to revisit my past and see how far I have come. I started writing on here when I was about 22 years old, I am now 28. Post adolescence has left me and I've officially entered real adulthood, however, I do not exactly know what that means still. I can feel something happening within me, a new energy source and I'm figuring out how to direct it - or if I'll direct it is the question. I find that I have a hard time finishing projects or seeing a completion. I want to stay positive with this one, I'm feeling it out. Maybe you will see more, stay tuned. Stay curious.

Strong, strong longing for my sixteen year old self right now.

one baby shoe, a McDonald's in the ghetto, a beach, my car, fights, crowds, anger, sunshine.

I just got back from 2011 Camp Pull a Shot in El Capitan Canyon (a little North of Santa Barbara). It was a magical place for coffee geeks/lovers and professionals who were willing to educate and share their experiences in the coffee industry. I basically hung out with some of the "rock stars" of the Barista Guild. After nights of pulling beer through the espresso machine; I have returned with valuable information and some humble pie. They truly have a great community sharing thing going on there, and everyone was super friendly and helpful.

here's a link to see what it was all about:

I need a serious time out.

Late night bike rides with the one I love after having thought provoking conversation with a stranger who had a little too much sake, but also a lot of heart. Love Love Love.
