Time Flies!

Wow that week flew past. Leopard is a beautiful part of my machine now and I learned lots putting it on. And with a few minor adjustments and 2 administrators, several hours at the genius bar and on the phone, I no longer feel like a split personality, but I can’t throw the trash away and some passwords are well never mind.

Someone will fix it soon. It was fun and Leopard is really cool. My email friends can expect some pretty new messages.

Day Of Healing

Sometimes we just need to create a personal day of healing.

When my world is going to fast and I am not able to keep up or when I just can’t make anything easy, perhaps the Universe is giving me permission to create a day of healing.

The ritual can be personal. What will make me feel cherished and blessed today? For this is the stuff that makes the rest of my week easy. It may only take a few minutes, but it will make a lifelong change in my life. A long hot bath, a walk with the dogs, music, a special meal, any way that I honor myself and the gift that I am is a way to honor the Source that created me.

And from blessing myself, I can be free to bless the rest of my world, which will certainly bless the Source of my being.

Personal Responsibility

Tonight I heard a person speak about personal responsibility. What a freeing concept. I like to claim personal responsibility and I do that when I realize that I have unlimited choices. I am responsible for the consequences of those choices. I am not responsible for the choices others make.

Conversely the choices others make may not be directed at me. In fact they may not and usually do not have anything to do with me. If I am being conscious of my own choices, I generally do not have time to be concerned about others choices. This is kind to everyone concerned.

Morning Dreams as Answers?

Sometimes I wake to the most delightful dreams. I did this morning, even though I don’t remember what it was. A playful dream I think. I remember waking happy, sated and peaceful.

I would like to dream more intentionally as I live more intentionally. So tonight I will ask a question before I go to sleep. Maybe the morning dreams are when my “hearing” is best.

So what should my first question be.....hmmm?

Thought for Today!

Do I believe my thoughts when they say I have too much to do?

Apple Class

Today was my personal Apple One to One training. As always it is packed with new information. This is truly money well spent. Next week Leopard will be here and I am moving forward to learn this stuff. It is so fun. And I can’t wait to see the new features of Mac OS X.? A new machine and a chance to really move forward with the technology. Awesome. Where will this take me?

Lessons

I believe that life is not a terrible experience to be endured, but it is magical lessons. Some seem like more wonderful gifts than others. Today if you cannot see the magic in life, borrow someone else’s eyes.

Christmas

Here’s a news flash. The Holidays are approaching again. Sooo...we are going to celebrate without presents? Yeah right. Like Larry would let that happen. So we better consider what we are going to give this year. Of course he can do wood work projects. And today big, a sale at the Woodcraft Store. No problem all taken care of. For me that is. Larry has to get busy making them all. Aww, can you see the irony of that?

I Am Really Very Busy at a cellular level.

The Hamper

Yesterday I bought another picnic hamper. So what is it about these silly things. Oh this one was different. Not as expensive, good for the environment and blue too. Still those are the excuses. Not the reason I am attracted to them.

Could it be the romance? The packing it up for an adventure with my sweetie. Yes I do believe it is. Packing it up, to take to the park and celebrate our relationship in the sunshine, near the water. Take The dogs for a walk and cement our relationship with kind memories.

Life is good. Life is not an exercise in fear and toil, but is magic full of adventures and challenges. If you can’t see the magic today look at it through someone else's eyes.

Fleas Fleas Go Away!

Today we went on the proverbial flea battle. The trick is to release the pets from flea infestations without killing them with the stuff that kills the fleas. Yikes. What is natural? What is best? What will ultimately do the job before the fleas take over our home? And how much do the sales people know about the chemicals they sell? Tough questions if you are concerned with the environment as well as the health of the pets.

Of and the expense. Where will it all end?

Dr. Brader

I don’t usually like Dr.’s. In fact I usually run the other way. But Dr. Brader is a prince of a fellow.
As an Oncologist I have heard wonderful things about him. As a surgeon he is the best. As a person he is caring and thorough. Still I am grateful that I do not have to go back to get other treatments. Surgical intervention did the trick. I am now cancer free.

However I do get to fulfill a promise I made and knit socks for these people. What pretty socks they are also. Dr. Brader will have blue green merino/silk and bamboo/wool. Michelle is going to get Lorna’s Laces Tickled Pink. Beth will be green sport weight. And Dr. Chowdury’s are beautiful subtle shades of Navy merino Soft and lovely. These are toe up 2 on 1 needle and so fun. Well I have to get to it, so good night sweet readers.

New Day

Today is a new day and new start for blogging. This is how we learn to do this. Writing is an ongoing discipline, and today is the day to start this discipline. Thank you for reading and gentle input will be appreciated.
