January 23rd, 2013 As a writer and a lover of words, a piece of paper is very important to me. The words that I might put on that paper could influence someone else to have a little better day, to inform someone and give them the gift of new knowledge, or to inspire them to keep going and . . . → Read More: Just A Piece Of Paper
January 22nd, 2013 This morning’s Bikram class was the first after three days. Things are very different with my body. Certain parts feel foreign and out of place. The only thing I can liken it to is when your first pregnant and your body just doesn’t feel familiar anymore. Instead of grabbing my heels in forward bend, I . . . → Read More: Searching For Gentleness
January 21st, 2013 I am still trying to work out these publishing to Facebook issues. The Typepad people are helpful. They answer my emails right away and are working on the problem. In the meantime they said I have to use RSSGrafitti. This means learning a new techno skill. I got the RSSGrafitti to work and set up . . . → Read More: Today Is A Test – Literally
January 19th, 2013 Today’s quote in yesterday’s Cape Cod Times was:
“Life is a great big canvas and you should throw all the paint you can on it.” ~ Danny Kaye
I love this quote. Right away I picture a white canvas with all bright colors being spattered and swirled all over it. Life. Big, beautiful, exciting…..etc. Then . . . → Read More: Painting!
January 18th, 2013 I am at the Braintree T stop just outside of Boston waiting for my daughter's train. She just let me know she's going to be late, so I sit here thinking about how much better I feel today after a rough week.
Everyday this week has been hard. Extreme muscle fatigue and mental lethargy . . . → Read More: No Impetus
January 17th, 2013 Yes, tapping. What is tapping? Just what it says it is – tapping – like tapping your fingers on the table. So, why am I writing about something so ordinary? Because I've never heard of it before. I mean, I've heard about tapping your fingers on the table while nervous or bored, but I've never . . . → Read More: Tapping
January 16th, 2013 Yesterday I took a day off. My daughters would laugh and say, "A day off from what? You don't work." Since they are still in the time of their lives when a typical job takes up five days a week, a day off to them just means you don't go to your place of work. . . . → Read More: A Day Off
January 15th, 2013 This morning I read a post by Jennifer Boykin. (I follow her blog – she's really quite intuitive in a way I connect with) Her blog name, Life After Tampons, causes a few smiles, but it's the tag line that hits me where I need it to – "Quit your bitching – change your life." . . . → Read More: Random Sleeping Man
January 14th, 2013 Today I ventured to Boston and the 60 degree, sunny weather required anything but an umbrella, but by the time I was on the commuter rail home at 5 pm, I still needed them. Not only one, but a bunch.
About a week ago a Boston mom of a very gifted eight year old . . . → Read More: Umbrellas!
January 12th, 2013 Yes, "that space". You know it. It pops up everywhere. It's "that space" between being almost done and actually being done – that place where you want quit because you just know you can't do it. "That space" pops up in 90 minutes of yoga everyday. I hit rabbit and I'm positively sure I can't . . . → Read More: “That Space…”
