“The intent is that the participants concentrate any thoughts during and after orgasm on peace. The combination of high- energy orgasmic energy combined with mindful intention may have a much greater effect than previous mass meditations and prayers.”
Global Orgasm
If nothing else, it will be fun to try!

Our 3 week holiday starts in 10 days. Bright and early on the morning of 12 August, we will be driving to catch a ferry to France and then off on our adventure. Car camping with a family of 5 for 22 nights. The sort of famly vacation that will either go down as one of the greatest ever or the most gruesome of disasters. Probably there will be some measure of both. A rambunctious 5 year old riding with a teen sister each side… I just need to thank whatever deity is responsible for the most heavenly of creations – the Ipod. Entertained and contained. They can run around like wild beasts when we get out of the car (so long as we are not withing 50 meters of a museum) but in the car with faulty Air Conditioning driving through Belgium,Germany,Swizterland and Italy … yup, like I said “entertained and contained” .
Been really busy working on fleece and spinning and knitting. Very productive actually. But as luck would have it, our camera died. Totally kaput. Thankfully, a new one is on its way to us and will be delievered by a friend of mine from Oregon in Germany. It is so much less expensive to order one in the states than it is to buy here. It was so lucky that we were planning to meet up with my friend and her son on their vacation. Until then we will have to use the girl’s camera.
That also means that I don’t have any pictures of all the work I have been doing recently. It really is a pity too because I have been doing some really cool stuff. Dylan and Kiah are surgically attached to their cameras and it is nearly impossible to get time with one. When I get the new camera (an SLR! Woot!) I will takes loads of really lovely pictures and share them with everyone. It will be worth the wait, I promise!

Guess what yesterday was? And guess what I got??? Yup – Sheering day at the farm where my lovely husband is interning. A crew of Kiwi sheep shearers came to the farm to set the girls free of their winter coats. Its quite an impressive operation they have going, and boy can they handle the sheep. I think hiring a pro is definately the smart way to go with shearing. I cannot imagine ever doing what these guys did. The sheep would win for sure.
Theres a bunch of photos to see of the day, and then a bonus of my darling man who promises me that we will have sheep of our own some day soon. You gotta love that.

Ta Da! My new home on the web. Mine all mine.
Finally ditched blogger and all its muck for my own domain and wordpress. So far so good. I am no wizard with the internets though so I am on a bit of a learning curve with it here, but I am hopeful that I will have it down in no time.
Still working on importing links so that is a bit scarce for the time being. There is some fun stuff I am hoping to give a try.
Don’t be shy – leave a comment and say hello!
