  1. Stormi! I should have known those eyes were Irish! And you speak Gaelic? How cool is *that!?* You do know that the Red Branch kings were all crowned on Tara Hill, yes? And that the Gaelic for Tara is (ahem) Themair. As in “Tamiris.”

    There’s more. Ire – is linguistically and genetically connected to Ira – i.e. Iran. Ponder this a bit, and the rest will come to you…

    Paddy’s day I tried to go to downtown Austin – it was the kickoff day for Southx, and there was no getting in… so I gave up and drove straight south 30 miles to San Marcos and the Tantra Cafe. I sat in the blazing room (it’s painted sixteen colors of orange and red) and drew up the greenprints for the Close Intensive Retreat workshop.

    Oh yeah. And put the green back in my hair. But you can still pinch me.

  2. thanks for all the irish love this week! i’m visiting my faeirie mamaĆ­ for her 60th and we’ve had many laughs over the videos! Go raibh maith agat!

  3. OMG crack me up why don’t ya…..”oh boy oh boy oh danny boy!!”
    Tears streaming down my cheeks from de laffin’ and boy oh boy, did i ever need a belly laugh right about now.

    Yes Ursula is still alive but desperately hoping to step off this wild roller coaster ride she’s been on since, since, ah what the heck, since Monday December 21st. Part of that ride has seen me prep my house for sale (intense labour 24/7 for a month) and it still awaits its buyer as of this morning.
    Whaaa.

    BUT; I feel the momentum shifting since March 17th (of all days for this Irish lass!) and just yesterday, a young couple came through whom I fell instantly in love with and I would have given them the house on a silver platter if I could have afforded it, they were so sweet! They told me that they were just back from honeymooning in Ireland and as of last night were 90% sure they were going to put in an offer shortly.
    Wish me luck wavers, I need to sell this house.

    So for now, I’m dreaming of an Ursula/Obama afternoon of celebrating.
    One always has to dream, right?!

    So good luck to America today on the Health Care vote and let me end with this aspirational quote from Julian of Norwich.
    “All shall be well, and all shall be well and all manner of thing shall be well.”
    Here’s hoping……
