Eden Haiku: Such a pleasure to wear shoes!
Eliza Madrigal: almost your nicest walking weather Eden?
Eden Haiku: No more snow boots :( Yes, Eliza but had to slow down the walking with the lasting cough which is now over, yeah!!!
Eden Haiku: Finished both proofreading and being sick so will go back to 10,000 steps a day!
Riddle Sideways: yeah

Eden Haiku: If you have Biodanza in your area, do try it, it's fantastic!
Bleu Oleander: I'll look for it thanks!

Eden Haiku: When are you giving your 'my story as a guardian' Bleu?
Bleu Oleander: ah good questions
Eden Haiku: I don't want to miss that
Bleu Oleander: was thinking next weekend?
Bleu Oleander: would sunday be good?

Bleu Oleander: sunday 4/23 at noon or 1pm?
Eden Haiku: Either
Riddle Sideways: either
Eliza Madrigal nods
Bleu Oleander: ok noon then ... I'll send a notice ... thanks
Eliza Madrigal: often a good time for people it seems... must remember to send a 'no guardian meeting' notice
Eliza Madrigal: for Sat
Bleu Oleander: we still have lots of months available for guardians to tell their stories in pictures!
Eliza Madrigal: happy to see Xiri jump in :)
Bleu Oleander: she changed her mind for the moment
Eden Haiku: Sunday the 23rd at noon then. looking forward to this session Bleu! Is it at the gallery?
Eliza Madrigal: ohh hm
Bleu Oleander: yes in the gallery
Eden Haiku: No log then? Sad for those who can't come....
Bleu Oleander: I think once I begin it might encourage others perhaps
Bleu Oleander: I can do a log
Eliza Madrigal: transmit the feeling ^^
Bleu Oleander: and post some of the photos
Eden Haiku: Would love to do "my story' at some point Bleu, just not sure about my schedule in the next few months...
Riddle Sideways: already looked at it, but want to hear you tell the story
Bleu Oleander: ok sunday then!
Bleu Oleander:the stories don't have to be all encompassing
Eden Haiku: Yes, a log would be nice Bleu. But I will do my best to be there, it’s a different feeling
Bleu Oleander:   just an aspect of being a guardian  
Bleu Oleander: for me my topic is "self and art"
Eden Haiku: Nice!
Riddle Sideways: would be very hard to be all encompassing of the experiences here
Eliza Madrigal: When I was looking through my photos, so many of my own memories and captures are Bleu and Art :)
Bleu Oleander: exactly!!!
Eden Haiku: I remember this project in which you had many selves dancing together!
Bleu Oleander: yes that's one of my images
Eden Haiku: :)

Eden Haiku: Wow!
Bleu Oleander: little guy just drops 6 feet to the ground ... kinda rude entry to life ha!

Riddle Sideways: there was one great piece on why/how comedians are doing a much better job reporting the news
Eden Haiku: Better than real reporters?
Riddle Sideways: the actual reporters have to clean up language and report 'facts' (where there are none)
Eden Haiku: Ah yes!
Riddle Sideways: one tweet equals weeks of reporters not knowing what to say. a comedian can just say "BS"
Eden Haiku: :)
Riddle Sideways: oh well, hate to do it, but need to go start today ... something
Eden Haiku: Not sure what BS stands for?
Eden Haiku: Yes me too :)
