I live barefooted and naked, very close to Earth and Nature, in a 16-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i. I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Today felt quite a bit more easeful than yesterday, with a lot less to get done, especially on Hive. I finally went to bed around 1:15AM last night due to having so much to get done. Today I had pretty much everything caught up and done on Hive by the time Melekai arrived up at the Flow House for her session around 11:15AM, including my Index4Index Daily Inspired Motivation: Tenacious Passion Overcomes All! post, which I actually got done in about fifteen minutes.
I gave Melekai a full session today, as opposed to the more focused work I gave her on Sunday. We ended some time after 2PM. Once I finished my session with her, I caught up on Hive for a bit, then I went to chop an older coconut for the meat, which gets blended in my superfood fire coffee every morning. I also went to collect more Hawaiian hot peppers, also for my morning elixir.
I worked with Ano and for a good while stripping the bark off of Melochia logs, to store them for later construction projects. We also got three sheep today. I helped Ano carry several sections of the experimental moveable, modular sheep fencing into the Citrus Orchard to set up to block off half of the area. Once we had that M&M (Moveable and Modular) fencing in place, we carried the three female sheep into the sectioned off portion of the Citrus Orchard, and let them go. So yeah, we now have three sheep.
After the sheep were situated, Ano and I stripped one more Melochia log, then I headed to the Landing to strain out another batch of kefir, and inoculate another round of raw, whole cow milk, and to make some food. With that done, I headed to the Flow House to dive back into my Hive tasks.
I was only up there a short time when Elohi called me on Ano's phone to tell me to come to Tutu's to get my 'Christmas gift'. I had a feeling it might be my computer, and I was right! Elohi followed me back up to the Flow House to see the computer that just arrived for me. Very Thankfully, the vendor from whom I bought it was ethical, and the system I received met the specs of what I bought! Yay! Elohi helped me remove the bottom panel of the computer to check if my laptop hard drives with Arch Linux on them would fit inside the very slimline laptop. Also very thankfully they did. The only problem was that my hard drives are set to boot using legacy BIOS boot, where as my new laptop only supports UEFI boot, so I can't boot into them yet until I set them up to be able to boot using UEFI. I've done that before, so it shouldn't be too difficult. I'll do that tomorrow.
Even if I have to reconfigure my hard drives a bit to boot in the new laptop, what's most important and exciting is that I now have a suitable laptop once again! I am so excited to finally dive back into my beloved (and much missed) Arch Linux! Now I will have to learn to balance my love for Hive, Arch Linux, and GaiaYoga Gardens. They are all very important to me, so I'll find a way!
On that note I think it's time to wrap up this post for now. I really need sleep, especially after last night. Tomorrow is the beginning of the return of Arch Linux into my life, so I'm going to need to devote some time to it, as well as do my Hive tasks. I'm nervous excited. Until tomorrow y'all! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚
