One Step at a Time - September 2012

Hey friends,
I just changed my avatar to a Sunbeam Bike! How cool is that! I have changed this a couple of times, but sooner or later someone else is using the same one, and that can be occasionally confusing. I got this from Google Images, so it will be less likely that anyone else uses it. I call this a double win for me: I keep my name with the implied outlook, but also get a bike, which I love to ride. I didn't know there was such a thing as a Sunbeam bike, but here it is!

I didn't know that Sun...cool!!
Pink eye turned out to be (3 hours later) a sinus and ear infection.....I just thought I had a cold that had been hanging on too long
off to iron, but calling Nora first

Allswell....I am reading "The Orchardist"....it's a new release...you may to check it out. It's fiction, but based on a man growing acres and acres of apples and apricots
My dream is to own my own nursery and play in the dirt all day......
or better....just play in the dirt all day!!!

Each day ,each moment at a time !!

Dixon - I love that quote.

Sun - Wonderful new avatar. How fitting! A sunbeam bike. :l

Mama - great talking to you. Feel better. I love you girl. :h

Allswell - an orchard sounds wonderful. We had a huge back yard when I was little and had plum trees and apricot trees. I'll never forget being able to walk outside and pick that fresh fruit. Best taste in the world.

I'm at work for a few hours so I better get with it. YUCK!!!! :H

Winding down from another busy day. In a week and two days we will be leaving on vacation for 12 nights. I am working very hard to get the plants into the ground that I accumulated over the summer. I waited until fall to put them in because of the heat and drought. I am also moving around a lot of other plants to make it look nicer next year. We will travel to Provincetown on the end of Cape Cod.

Mama, hope you feel better soon. I think Paula told you before she left that you probably had something other than a cold. Like many good mamas you are too busy taking care of everyone else to take care of yourself.

Nora, I am sorry you have to put up with such awful heat, hope it cools off soon. High temp here today was 70.

I am currently practicing rocking chair meditation. When I feel things building up inside me, I just close my eyes and rock for 5 minutes.

Allswell, I am picking red raspberries right now -yum! They are very easy to grow.

Dixon, we all love your good words.

Heading to bed....hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend.

Sun - I absolutely love that idea of the rocking chair meditation. I am adding that to my list. Wow! What a wonderful idea. Thank you for sharing that. I never would have thought of it but I honestly believe that will be a good one for me. I have always found rocking very relaxing.

Sun, Bouchard, Allswell, Paula, Dixon, Mama, K9, Boozer and everyone that I am missing at the moment - here are big hugs ......... :l:l:l:l:l:l

Happy Monday!

Aren't we all excited to be back at work??

I had a great weekend, I found lots of treasures at the thrift store. My whole outfit I'm wearing today was $7! That's including the dress, tights and boots! BUT, I spent my money elsewhere because I was redecorating my bedroom...I was gonna "treat" myself at 30 days of no smoking but I jumped the gun. I am only at 22...so my next treat will be at 60...

My nephew came out of his cave yesterday and hung out in the living room with me ALL day. We watched 5 hours of Breaking Bad. My daughter was at her dads so I was glad for the company. Then she came home around 8 and we all hung out together...which never happens. They usually scatter like cockroaches into their own spaces.

Okay peeps, guess I'll go walk around and tell some more people about my $7 outfit. LOL

Back later....
