Voting

I’m so sick of election news.  And I don’t even live in a state getting bombarded with political ads. No, I live in a state that doesn’t matter. The election will be decided before it hits the Mississippi. In a state voting on same sex couples and their ability to marry – vote for them…

PHOTOS!

I finally got a new card reader. Ramona statue in the park. Flowers next to one of the gravestones at a pioneer cemetery.

Manifesting Positive

I’m a skeptic in a lot of areas of life except one: Karma – you get what you give. Taking this tantra class resonates with me because, in the end, that is the fundamental thing.  The energy you spend – on what you spend it on – is what you will get back.  Karma  –…

Random Thoughts

Happy Birthday, Julia!!

Julia Child would have celebrated her 100 year old birthday today.  PBS did their remix – a remix they have done for Mr Rogers and Bob Ross before her. I became more interested in Julia Child as I read Julie and Julia – a book about one woman’s attempt to cook every recipe out of…

Sunday Coffee

Here are something to watch and read while you have your coffee on a Sunday morning. This dog is pretty cool.
