2/365 (1/1)
My 6yo daughter wanders in while I'm sitting, she's stalling going to bed.
6yo: What are you doing?
Me: Nothing.
6yo: Oh. Can you tuck me in again?
Me: Of course, as soon as I'm done.
6yo: What should I do until then?
Me: Come sit with me.
6yo: Ok. *sits* Now what do I do?
Me: Nothing.
After my bell sounded she went to her room, I tucked her in (again) and she was out like a light in under 10 minutes. :D

September: 15/1 (sat/missed).
I'm moving to tracking my sitting for each month indicating for the month-to-date how many days I've sat and how many I've missed. Still everyday is like starting over.

My mind decided to channel surf this AM. File it under Bad/No Bad zazen.

I have to start over because I had company at my house and they occupied my room and my time. So, unless I reach the point at where I was I won't be posting progress on this thread.

Mark-These things happen. I decided to continue posting after my last miss because I decided the challenge was less important to me than simply reporting which gives a sense of structure to the practice for me. So with that, keep on keepin on.

Stumble, get up, dust off, keep going ... keeping going .... stumble, get up, dust off, keep going ...
No place to fall, nor any place to get. Where is the dust but in our own eyes?

One for One seems like a good plan [monk] gassho2
After watching Talks For New Folks Part 2. 2/365
Did something different this time. Sat on my zafu with the video playing full screen on my ipad. For me,it actually felt like a face to face conversation with Jundo. :)
btw, aren't those magical powers just par for the course for you zen priests? :D
Well, I can fit me, you and the whole universe into the smallest bit of atom ... and I can expand atoms to fill endless universes ... but I have trouble to squeeze into my blue jeans. The diet since New Years is helping. [pizza] (first chance to use the pizza icon)

I'm new to the community but I think this is a great idea! I'd love to join in with you all and commit to sit! I signed up on G+ but I'm not sure how to use it yet. I just click buttons trying to learn and navigate it. I did find the Treeleaf page but I'm not sure what to do after all of that.

Jundo; Don't listen to atoms; They make up everything!! :D

That was awesome Shokai!
Sat without watching Talks for New Folks 3. I've watched that one a dozen times when I started sitting.
Still not sure where my "sitting bones" are. :P

Hi Kia!
Google+ is still very new for a lot of people. There is this manual that I found very helpful to get the basic of the service.
It's by Guy Kawasaki, a technology advocate and a very good writer.
Give it a shot.
