Thursday 8:35 p.m.I think the photie on the left was taken less than two months ago.
There are now nine beds of onion, I think, and seven rows of tatties. Also, there's a patch dug out for brassica which I murdered myself doing today.
I'm just going to light a joint. I haven't had any tobacco today, but I must admit that the nicotine dragon has me this time! After six years off, I have to admit that I now have a substantial problem. Dearie me!
Yesterday, I'd meditated for a couple of hours before I bought the fags at one. Thereafter, joint then meditate, etc., all day. Tried to go to the diggings at five, but the weather was foggy, cold and getting wet. I must have meditated about seven times yesterday and every one was better than the one before until the last one when I was probably a bit too stoned.
Sometimes I've wondered if the meditation in the afternoon were as useful as other ones, but yesterday they just kept getting stronger and stronger.
St Teresa of Avila says there are five "mansions" in the Interior Castle and you move through them, it seems, at least if you're her. Yesterday, it felt almost as if I was moving through them a meditation at a time. Of course, in Teresa's schema I'm probably not at three yet!
Yesterday, I felt as if I was getting back on track after all the socialising I'd been doing. Was in the lobby or on the computer all day from one. Hurrah! I might post again later if I can think of something to say about the bliss.

I say, I never knew it was possible for someone like yourself to be too stoned. The likes of me is a different story, I even once got too stoned on a dopeless joint.
If it makes you feel any better, I'm going through exactly the same thing here, with the tea dragon.
