Be present.  Pause: put obligations that you may no otherwise, on hold and reprioritize.  Pause: savor the moment. Cherish it. Freeze time if only for a second. Pause: I want the cancer to pause. To stop, if only for awhile, to give us some more time. I know it won't be forever but I am putting energy into this pause.  Pause: a period or time free from engagement Pause: take a breather Pause: take five Pause- and connect. connect my feelings. connect with others.  Primary Goals: Move your body 4 days a week. Any movement for 15 minutes or more counts.  Say Yes to time spent with Mom. Call often. Visit once a week, more if possible. Say yes to things that involve her unless it's interferes with my own mental health or need for rest. Journal about each day of this year. I can write about things a day or two later if need be, but I do want to keep a record. I do want to pause and reflect on things are they happen this year.  22 for 2022 List Check out this episode of Happier with Gretchen Rubin to hear more about this project.

How about an amazing denture tattoo? Well we have the perfect guest for you. Ed Johnson is a tattooist out of Portland Oregon who specializes in teeth and denture tattoo. Ed is joined by his dentist father, Dr. Dennis Johnson. They talk about the early days that lead Ed to art and his fascination with teeth. Ed talks about getting into tattooing, the process of giving one of his "patients" a tattoo, and what makes a good tattoo great. If you love teeth and don't have a tattoo, you will want one after this. Check out Ed's Instagram at DentistPDX (https://www.instagram.com/dentistpdx/) If you want to save, and also grow, Gro3X (https://www.gro3x.com/) is, where you should go!

She bumped her lip on the way over for a Christmas visit and grabbed her bear for comfort so they brought it with them. Lots of ends sticking out. I took a cable needle and shoved them back in and she looked pretty great after that! Gabriella's Velvet Bear Pattern: Velvet Valentine Crochet Bear by Sarah Zimmerman- available on Yarnspirations website. Yarn: Bernat Velvet in the  Misty Gray Colorway Hook: G (4.0 mm) My Ravelry Project Page Crafty Adventures Making banana ice cream with Garret. We use this recipe. Making Pizzelles- tasted delicious but looked kind of crumby but confectionary sugar hides many sins.  Knitting in Passing During a recent sleepover, Millie wanted help with a knitting project and per usual she claimed she didn't remember how to knit, but when she sat down and started, she picked right up where she left off. We have learned though that she does not enjoy bamboo needles so I need to work on getting her a short circular, metal needle replacement for the cowl she's working on. Riley's current project is a cowl from Lion Brand in a fun color changing yarn. It turned out a bit too big and so instead, she wants to make it into a top for Millie. She's learned to make i-cord to use for straps and we'll sew those on when she's done.

Spinning I want to make more garlands for my house. Christmas themed one would be fun.  Genna-with-a-gee: “What are you best methods for having a successful year? Keeping low stress?” Build habits that get you headed where you want to go. Figure out not just what you're aiming for but concrete steps of when, where, how you'll do things to move in that direction. Be grateful. Look for the good things happening around you and you'll find those. Remember that life isn't all good. It's a mix. We're supposed to be sad, angry, overwhelmed. Personally I don't find it useful to try to find a way out of that. Experience it. Lean in, and then…when it feels like it could pass, move on. Try to move back towards more positive emotions.  On a Happy Note Thank you for all of your kind notes, comments, cards etc after we announced last episode that Mom is battling lung cancer. We truly appreciate it. After a grueling experience with the special pharmacy, Mom has finally started her gene therapy treatment.  Visiting with Maria who was visiting from Barcelona.

Quote of the Week “Satisfaction is always available. It is just not always looked for. If, when you enter any experience, you enter with curiosity, respect and interest you will emerge enriched and with awareness you have been enriched. Awareness of enrichment is what satisfaction is.”  -Ann Hastings Thank you for tuning in! Contact Information: Check out the Down Cellar Studio Patreon!

Nobody can protect you from that, and being alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You have to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes too near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself that you tasted as many as you could.” -Louise Erdrich Thank you for tuning in. Contact Information: Check out the Down Cellar Studio Patreon!

Star Wars games have been few and far between since the acquisition of Lucasfilm by Disney and the dissolution of LucasArts. Needles to say when the surprise announcement of Star Wars: Eclipse occurred with a trailer drop we were excited! However, after reading up on the studio responsible for the game, we were concerned and apprehensive about the game and Lucasfilm's commitment to representation. This game is set during The High Republic era, an era fleshed out in publishing and known for how good it's representation of women, PoCs, and the LGBTQ+ community. All this great representation in publishing is somehow contradicted by having the game developer be known for anti-LGBTQ+, and misogynistic comments. We explore all this and if we can practice 'death of the author' while contrasting this with J.K. Rowling, her anti-trans views, and the impact on the Wizarding World. Join us! #BlackoutStarWarsEclipse • • • Triad of the Force is a channel featuring Nani, Gus, and Moe, three lifelong Puerto Rican friends who after years of discussing the media they love, have finally come together and created their show. Triad of the Force focuses their discussions on Star Wars, but their love for media spans everything from sci-fi, fantasy, CBMs, and beyond. From films to TV, from books to comic books, Triad of the Force looks at all media critically, from a Latine/x perspective. Joins us!

Does hearing what others are doing or planning, does that make you evaluate or reevaluate your progress, plans, things you are doing? I find myself doing that and then have to remind myself that I am not in a competition with anyone else and to compare myself only to my past self.

In our Season 4 finale, we're going out with a bang as Chris sits down with 2x Grammy award-winning singer/songwriter Natalie Hemby! A self-proclaimed “14-year overnight success”, Natalie gives us an inside look at her music journey - from the early days cutting her teeth as a demo singer and chasing the artist dream, to giving a Grammy acceptance speech for her group “The Highwomen” (while literally riding a roller coaster at Dollywood). Fast forward to getting her first record deal at age 44, and releasing her new sophomore solo album “Pins and Needles”, the 90s rock inspired record she's been wanting to make since the start of it all. Listen on for an honest, funny, and insightful chat as Natalie reveals some of the worst songs she's ever written, why you have to go out and live life in order to write the great ones, and in true Pitch List form, we discuss why it's crucial to always come back to the heart and the love of music.
