The cell phone pulls me from a dream about skulls. I let them leave a message. It is one of the assistants asking if they can give someone another space. My thoughts are painted with dark colors as my breath explores the pain in my right lat. I know that I may have to give up my space and this leads me down a path of resentment. It feels like the earth is being pulled out from under my feet. Bill answers the second ring and voices my fear about taking my space for the guest. We have a little tug of war and I just let it all simmer. Bill: "I love you bro but you know where the gate is."
This guest ended up changing their mind. I did some yoga and tai chi. So now I'm sporting my happy face and the day takes on another color. Kind of like yellow and green with a tinge of orange.
I shave my head and face for the first time in 4 or 5 days - ahh.
The retreat organizer asks me if I'd play the didj for a class. At this point I feel ready and tell her: "I'd be honored." So tomorrow, I shall begin playing at 4:30 PM. I may decide to go the entire 90 minutes without stopping. The yoga style will be restorative. The didjeridoo will enhance the students' practice to the Nth degree. I am already feeling hyped about it.
My morning consisted of walking the land and checking the various structures. I also went on a supply run in Bill's brown Volvo: two straw bales, four forty pound bags of salt and some turtle food. I throw some straw over the ever growing pile of compost and dump water softening salt into the pool and jacuzzi.
It's nice to have WiFi in the main house and the guest house. I sit on the chair outside the guest house waiting for Robin. I'm supposed to give her a tai chi lesson and she's supposed to give me a thai massage. I end up giving her feet a massage. She's feeling a bit unearthed. I've actually learned to enjoy giving foot rubs and I can feel the relaxing impact on her as I go over various reflexology points.
Will's been waiting for some food. We've been waiting for Bill and Dev to return with Bill's Volvo so I can take Will to Farmer and the Cook. It's a fun trip down. Will pulls a sheer golden piece of fabric over his head as we cruise down the back roads to our destination. As we cruise along the streets in Meiner's Oaks, I pull a veil over my head as well. Please do not worry, worry mongers, the veil is super sheer and does not hinder my ability to see the road, its purely for effect. While we make a turn, someone walking on the road sees us and goes: "Oh my God, their going to rob someone." We laugh and pull the fabric off our heads. Time for some grub.
When I return, Dev pulls me aside and informs me that another guest needs to move into my t-house. They wil vacate his studio which he will return to, thereby vacating the vista yurt which I will move into. At this point, I am OK with leaving the t-house. I guess it shows I'm in a better mood or something.
