Dear Friends,
 
Bob is in Alabama sitting on the beach with his friends, so I have lots of time to myself and I am getting so much more done these days – including some really good naps. It is amazing how wound up we get when we have duties and responsibilities looming over us. I think I spend more time procrastinating than anything, when this is the case. Right now, I seem to have no reason or excuses to procrastinate – so stuff is getting done. Much of what I have been doing has been relaxing and stimulating at the same time. In the winter I like to do crossword puzzles, physical puzzles, reading, coloring and artwork. I find all of these things very relaxing. I have turned a downstairs room into a studio where I keep all my art items.

I have had Renee attach a flyer about an ICON workshop that will be held during Lent at St. John’s in Grand Haven. I am seriously thinking about attending this. I have wanted to do it for some time but have had an impossible schedule to clear out. Now I have some time. I am looking forward to it. If you want to join me, please do. I think it is going to be a wonderful experience. Having hobbies is a good way to deal with down time, and with learning how to relax. I recommend it highly!

I want to reach out again to anyone who is feeling out of sorts due to the confusion and chaos, divisions and fear that our world is producing. I am a great ear, and we can explore what you are feeling – together - and spiritually. These are some crazy days we find ourselves in. Talking out our feelings helps. I can help. Let me walk this walk with you.
 
Warmly and with many blessings,
Mother Lily
