passions
run high
in this household
we
are a stormy
group
when the world seems most
daunting
we feel a pull
to quest
to conquer
storms roil
& rage
inside of us
when the world
is calm
we fret
& fight
amongst ourselves
awaiting
the next outbreak
to ease our
tensions
we are the stormbringers
loosing
our turbulent
selves
on an unsuspecting
peace.
me & my minions. so much a force to be reckoned with.
i once said of my boy, iggy, “he could make a saint swear.” and now i have poppy who sometimes makes iggy look like a saint.
you might think i exaggerate. if you do, i invite you to spend the weekend with us. (bring alcohol!)
and in that, i have realized i am dreaming if i think i can find an intentional community that we would fit into. so…plan b? who has a plan b?
um.
i thought, while trying to fall asleep last night, if i had the skill to do so, i would set up a site where single parents could meet & share resources. like even finding housing together, etc.
does this exist? if so, please point me in the right direction.
Awesome art and writing!

Im sure I saw somethign in the press here in the UK about 3 or 4 women who did just that. All moved in together for 3 or 4 years and raised the kids together . Seemed to work too…

i am not sure, other than craigslist, where to look for that. in the past i have gotten sketchy responses to looking for a shared space as a single mom. i know where i want to live–so i am trying to figure out the best possible way to advertise there. i have already contacted a couple of people i know in the area for leads.
