A Year in Santa Fe

I've been living with the Girls now for a year and a half.

Living at the Casa de la Rosa

I had no thought of leaving.  I was in no shape.  My face was still a mess.  But a whirlwind of Drama blew in and by March I had found a room to rent on Craigslist and I moved in with Rose and her niece, Desi.  Rose's twin sister and Desi's mother, Mary had died the week before.  That wasn't a part of the ad though it turned out to be a perfect situation for all of us.  We each were grieving loss and left each other to our thoughts.
When I went back in my Dream Journal there were a couple of dreams of living with the Girls and Little Boy.  "Little Boy" is what they call their 65 pound Basset.

How'd I Get Here

This was my life three years ago.

Then a couple of summers ago I moved to Durango, Colorado managing a shop downtown on this street.

I thought life was set for awhile.  I loved the town and my job.

I started having weird dreams and visions.

One night I had a "visitor".

In less than  a month I woke up to what I thought was a stroke.

A trip to Urgent Care decided I had developed Bell's Palsy which is a temporary loss of nerves on one side of the face due to cold or chicken pox.

It seems that I had gotten the Attention of a Jaguar Shaman while doing a Soul Retrieval with Ms. K.
He "saw" my stare through the eyes of the little girl who was then groomed for a Soul Sacrifice.  I feel that what had happened to my face was the manifestation of reliving that ceremony.

I had just happened to find Ross's art that fit perfectly for what I was experiencing.  Later when I was moving to Santa Fe I thought it a lucky coincidence.  I would get to meet him.  My friend Margo drove me down and in our conversations it turned out that she had gone to college with Ross and they were long time friends.

I spent the winter with my mother where I spent a lot of time along the River and started stringing beads.

Until I had this dream.

Within a month I was living with Rose in Santa Fe.

How's It Going to End

The Election is over, The Storm has passed and we're headed into the last Quarter.  What can we expect for the end of the year?
I decided to start a Diary for these last couple of months to document this time.  There are wild expectations and many personal revelations.  Things are happening so fast that I can't remember what was going on last week so writing things down may be interesting.
