If you have a thousand and one things left undone, it might be a good time to take a little time this morning to make a start on one of them. Make a list if you have to and cross off each one as you complete it. You will feel better for it and you just might set up a routine for actually finishing things.
Being a woman of a thousand interests gets me into a lot of trouble. And seeing that it is a rainy day today, working on that blanket just might be my project for today. …read more

I have seen one before and Lord willing, I’ll see one again. But all I can say after watching the Web cast of that solar eclipse, is wow! How small we all are. When God puts on a show, everybody watches!!
I hope you were able …read more

I have only seen one solar eclipse. It was either in the late 70s or early 80s; I was working on the 7th floor of an office building and it was an excellent view (not of the sun of course, because you can’t look at that directly) but of the planet below (granted, a very small piece of the planet). All of the street lights came on, everyone had to turn their headlights on – it was a slice of night in the middle of the day.
I can understand why cultures viewed eclipses as something very mysterious and …read more

I love the blogs at b5media. There isn’t a one that isn’t full of fascinating information and behind those postings, are some of the greatest people I have ever worked with. I wish I could personally escort each of you to every site and spend time talking about it.
Alas, real life, once again rears its head.
In lieu of that, I will just will bring you a few at a time. But I couldn’t wait on these three. They are written by the same author, Kevin Humphrey. Kevin has this thinking-outside-the-box thing, down pat. And …read more

“Not until the creation and maintenance of decent conditions of life for all men are recognized and accepted as a common obligation of all men . . . shall we . . . be able to speak of mankind as civilized.”Albert Einstein
I love finding good Web sites. Ones that are caring, peaceful, and give to their readers. I sure found one today and I want to share it with you. Actually, it is more than a Web site. It is a community of people who are working together to change the world. It is interfaith, …read more

“When you are listening to somebody, completely, attentively, then you are listening not only to the words, but also to the feeling of what is being conveyed, to the whole of it, not part of it.”Krishnamurti

I was interviewed for b5media not too long ago, and was asked the question, “If you could change the world in one significant way, what would it be?”
I would have people listen to each other. We all want the same things. Security, safety, good ways to raise our kids, love people all want those things but they are so unattainable because no one …read more

“Thinking Outside the Box means viewing reality as patterns locked in time based on the sceince and math thay create our reality. Our consciousness exists, in part, inside the box – the physical plane or frequency. Conscious awareness is evolving out of the box in the alchemy of time.” 
Ellie Crystal
This really has my mind preoccupied.  I have mulling it around a fair bit the past few days.  I decided – what the heck, I’ll do a web search on it.  Wow, a lot of people are trying to think outside of the box, or in some cases, trying to try.  It …read more

Now this is fun site to peruse. You simply choose the state where you might be vacationing and it will then provide you with a list of romantic spots to check out. I of course clicked on Florida and I like what I see.
Seems as if G and I are definitely going to have to check out more of this state. This particular spot is going on my list…
