Pod Sisters are Here

The last few days disappeared!  Pod sisters, Sara and Nancy arrived Thursday, Faye yesterday.  Each one has now had an illumination/extraction with Todd or me and also a beautiful fire (Thanks to Todd) in the pit outside the Yogatorium last night where Millie joined us and we did a bit of drumming and fire watching - even an attempt at chanting - BUT, I need to work on my leadership there a bit.  By December 21 when we hold our drumming circle here I'll be ready.  And, we made squash soup (Sara's contribution - she's always bringing along delightful recipes and food - and does the preparation!!!) which is super good.  This morning, the knitting is back in swing.  Faye is working on a beautiful brown and gold colors and Sara a complicated pattern that took the two of them quite a while to interpret. ...... Beamer, Nancy's lab, is also keeping us company.  What a joy to share space with my Claritas friends - we've been meeting four weekends a year - since the fall of 2005.  I'm truly a blessed woman.
