My greywater laundry to landscape system! did a phenomenal job with the design and setting up the external work- an underground tube and then 4 emitters to share the šŸ’¦ šŸ’™. My palo verde grove, hop seeds, aloe and a few others are loving this! These help shade my trail and create more privacy between my neighbor and I. Plus some cool hideouts for the bunnies, quail, snakes, roadrunners, javelinas and more!

This two way valve inside is very easy to use and I can direct the water to the septic or to water plants šŸ‘ was so pleasant to work with and created a space that is simple for me to use.

gave an informative class on this and I’ll be seeking my rebate from the city soon.

I LOVE this. 🧺 āž”ļøšŸ’¦šŸŒ³

Something I value greatly is spaciousness, time to let things simmer and then fizzle out on their own accord. Watching as fire burn to completion is a journey of its own. I always feel like i am stealing something when I have to put out a fire while it is still hot.

And yet there have to be limits. At some point a bathroom break is needed or the kids have to be picked up or a bill is due.

Ending a movement session to go pick up the kids just as a groove was flowing is frustrating and also heartening that I could find a groove. That maybe next time I can tap into it easier and/or maybe I can carry the groove with me to the pick up line.

I’m learning to keep a slow burn in my body that can be stoked during times when intensity is called for and also can remain quiet but warm at other times.

Pleasure feeds the fire and is necessary with consistency. Massaging my own face, morning coffee when the day is still quiet outside and the birds are fluffy, chopping vegetables with a freshly sharpened knife, s3x that isn’t rushed, laughing at my toddlers jokes….

I’ve been thinking about some s**t lately. This is what’s circling around-
🪐 buy/eat local is great. What about giving/releasing locally? The items (or thoughts, emotions, patterns) we no longer have a use for really can be a gift to the earth (or a friend, a relative, a neighbor).

The orange p*el feeds the soil much like confiding to a friend about your anger feeds your relationship. If done in a mindful way. A pile of p*els or insults suffocates.

Why is ā€œtrashā€ (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual) so unsightly that we have to bag it up and haul is far from home? Or sit in a specified office to unload it?

Yes, some things are easier to handle at home and some require professional help. And yes- I fill my trash bins every week with things I can’t compost at home. Yes seeing someone qualified to handle mental, emotional, spiritual s**t is also a necessity.

As a society when did we get so squeamish about our waste? Our unmentionable thoughts?

Is there a way to decompose these in a healthy way that feeds and nourishes instead of hiding it?

Trying out this GIANT bag (thanks mom) in an effort to keep more hay outside and less inside my house. As a wheelchair user- everything ends up in my lap. This bag worked amazing. Held 3 flakes of hay, is lightweight, with one strap around my neck I don’t have to worry about losing the load if I hit a rock and honestly I felt pretty bad loading up a giant bag with some green šŸ˜‚

I would recommend as a solid accommodation for IADL (instrumental activity of daily living)- pet and home management. If only I could bill myself for my time (and my mom’s).

Hi! I’m Camille. A para, mom of 3 kids, 3 dogs and 2 horses and an OT. I used this picture in my ā€œparenting as a paraplegicā€ PowerPoint as part of one of Jefferson University’s panel for OT students/ others interested. It was REALLY fun!

My passion is using movement, connection to feel joy in this crazy world. I always welcome questions about w/c life, OT. Every Body deserves to move, to feel good & to be a part of something bigger.

THIS.

is offering a screening of a special film that explores the human horse bond. has done an incredible job and I’ve only seen the first half.

Horses are honest. They want the best for their herd- which includes us humans!

Feeling this post by . I’ve been spending my mornings outside adoring the trees, cacti. Allowing their patterns to influence my movement practice. It is really lovely- and then a neighbor walks by with their dog and I immediately shrink. Don’t mind me, I’m practicing my tango with the Mesquite; I’m perfecting the circle and reminding my body what round is with this Prickly Pear.

Why don’t you fit into clothes? Why are you so tired? Why didn’t you have fun at the party? why do you have to p*e, again? What’s wrong now?

It’s time to join forces with our bodies. They are our greatest ally.
