what a great story about getting back together~
Thanks again Elly. Have a great day too...
I've been so busy this last month working, and in my free time writing music and putting on SOBER JAM at my studio. Here's a link of a little clip I did with Reese. We recorded an album about 15 years ago, and then lost touch due to "weird circums...
I do a monthly SOBER JAM at my studio for our sober community... for fun and for free. This is a video of the first band that played. Enjoy...
Performed live on September 26th, 2009 at Live Rock Studios SOBER JAM 3.
So I've been doing all sorts of giving, I did my 2nd "Sober Jam" at my recording studio/sound stage for our sober community on Sat August 8th. IT was much better than the first one. Now I'm planning the 3rd one and trying to be alot more organized...
Yes, the busy life ... I did like your daily blogs, but don't think of them as an obligation ... happy to hear from you whenever you have time ...

I've been so busy this last month working, and in my free time writing music and putting on SOBER JAM at my studio. Here's a link of a little clip I did with Reese. We recorded an album about 15 years ago, and then lost touch due to "weird circumstances". Having found her through facebook, she attended SOBER JAM 2 and we've started a new writing partnership. She has a gif for voice and lyrics, and we work well together. Just sharing... I think this is fruit from having a giving attitude...

Day 6-10 Round 2
I've slacked on keeping up with my daily giving due to extreme end of the month craziness in my job. Combined with what I think was a stomach bug I got Thuursday from some bad GREEN powderd supplemnt. Do I have to start over? Basically I was aware of being positive and giving in friendliness to people most of the week. Yesterday I was going to give to someone outside TJ's on my way out, and they were gone... I did have a great Saturday where we had a reunion party at my place. And Sunday I gave… Continue

I am home from my trip and finally got to watch the UTube videos. White Buffalo, and Reese's Who am I. I really enjoyed them. Your friend's passion really shows through. I even watched Good Guys Don't Wear White. Thanks for sharing the videos with us.

- Just wanted to say hi and let you know that I've been reading your blog posts ... you're doing great things. I like your idea of doing things "for fun and for free."
Great discovery with that email ... sometimes we need to take an extra second before we respond ...
So how do I get my own pink cloud? : )
