Fumiko arrived from Tokyo yesterday at noon, and we had a good time
catching up with all the news from friends in Japan. I am so
happy to have her back, although she has to leave in two weeks to
finish editing a book she is working on for Shufunotomo. She
brought another plastic sword for Anders!

I bought a Sears Kenmore washing machine today. I seem to be very
brand-loyal when it comes to buying appliances. My Dad, who made
his living as a building contractor, imprinted me with the durability
of the Kenmore line.

Just in and out from Washington DC and back down to Studio City,
California for Thanksgiving with my family. I send loving
thoughts to everyone, no matter where you are, hoping this season has
special delights and warm moments.

I'm just leaving for the airport to go up to Seattle, Washington. Teaching classes and doing consultations.
Last night, my yoga teacher, Britta, brought in this wonderful poem piece by Mary Oliver (from the book West Wind)
Listen, are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?
While the soul after all, is only a window,
and the opening of the window no more difficult
than the wakening from a little sleep.
((p. 62)
More later. |

Here's an email update from an old client. I've kept him anonymous to
preserve his privacy. He is reporting in on some of the numerology
predictions I gave him earlier this year.

I returned from Thailand last Thursday. After Japan, Thailand
seemed very hot and humid, but Fumiko and I and Kumiko and Aga had a
great time exploring.

Excuse my poor attempts at writing poetry while here in Japan.
Tuesday
The balcony drips
Outside my window
Fresh and cool
The night turns to morning.
Early
sound of rake
dragging heavy wet leaves
the grey dawn begins with
emptying the pail.

Last night Fumiko-san and I had invited our friends, Misao
Takahara and Terayama-sensei for dinner. She had noticed an
organic restaurant near the Takadanobaba train station the day before,
and thought that would be a good place to go. Misao-san had
called to say she probably would be late, but as it turns out, they ran
into each other on the train platform (this is a very busy station the
train platform (this is a very busy station). We all laughed about the
coincidence.

Fumiko's brother, Nobu, is here! He is going to a conference on
bicycling tomorrow in Las Vegas, but he was able to come over
yesterday. We made a nice barbeque outside and had a good time
talking. Fumiko just got back from taking the last travellers to
the airport. After our retreat, a few people stayed on to tour
the Napa Valley, go to wineries, and get a mud bath. So we were
celebrating being back together again.
Fumiko and I are getting packed to leave for Tokyo tomorrow. I'm
so sorry that Robert is unable to go with me this time, due to work
commitments.
Little excitement this morning. Fumiko's bedroom door got
accidentally locked and Robert got her out with a ladder!
Thankfully, it didn't happen tomorrow when we would be getting ready to
go to the airport. Gunther came over and somehow released the
lock. What did he do that we didn't? Oh well, it's
open, and I'll have to get a new door knob.
Robert and Nobu went off to see the Folsom Street Fair--a festival for
the "leather community." Pretty wild. Fumiko and I
are staying home to rest and pack. |
