Live, in Costa Rica!

By |2011-08-03T14:55:31+12:00August 3rd, 2011|Adventure|

Finally, we are Home. This is our house. We live on top of a mountain called Tierra del Verano; Summerland. At the bottom of the mountain path (100 meters long, and 125 meters down from our house) is the highway that connects San Isidro, the 2nd largest city in the country, and Dominical, one of [...]

The Highland Roots

By |2011-07-18T07:27:59+12:00July 18th, 2011|Family, Introspection|

This weekend, I took my children to The Highland Games, so I could expose them to the community of Scots from whence they came. Indilea loves the idea of cousins. She has always wanted cousins. This weekend, I gave her more cousins than she could count. My children and I all share a middle name: [...]

New Resume

By |2011-07-12T19:50:39+12:00July 12th, 2011|Business|

As I'm sure you know, the economy stinks. Looking for a job in Portland (a digitally-savvy city) for a job in digital media (where there are lots of unemployed digital media enthusiasts) is like walking into a refugee camp and asking for a Denver omelette with a side of bacon. Other people are eating, sure, [...]

Shedding Stuff and Juggling Drunk

By |2011-06-27T08:59:49+12:00June 27th, 2011|Introspection|

I lost my backpack this weekend. And it didn’t even phase me. I’m a Capricorn. I am notoriously addicted to stuff. While not exactly a hoarder, I could easily be called a collector…and maybe even an over-packer. I like to be well stocked and supplied. Okay, I’m a hoarder. When we move to Costa Rica [...]

Relaxing from my Center

By |2011-06-24T10:29:14+12:00June 24th, 2011|Introspection|

It’s only because I am consciously rocking the gut this summer that I noticed:  I have been continually holding tension in my abdomen. Tight in my center. That’s me. This unfortunate side effect of staying in shape has created energetic blocks between myself and what I want to manifest. By staying tense, pulling in [...]

One Beer Belly, Please.

By |2011-06-14T15:06:52+12:00June 14th, 2011|Introspection|

I have made the decision to acquire a beer gut. This decision was not come by lightly. I am supposed to be doing P90X this season, but with starting a new business, selling all my worldly possessions, and preparing for a move across the continent, devoting an hour or two every day to my fitness [...]

Dare to be bold by Matt Cheuvront Our arts, our occupations, our marriages, our religion, we have not chosen, but society has chosen for us. We are parlour soldiers. We shun the rugged battle of fate, where strength is born. – Ralph Waldo Emerson “Next to Resistance, rational thought is the artist or entrepreneurs worst enemy. [...]
