waiting

I didn’t see her at first… she stood so still…

Once I caught the glimpse of her waiting patiently, I couldn’t “not” see her

My first intention was to just grab a picture … then I thought I’d clean it up, take away the tree she stood behind. In the spring when the tree begins to leaf out, she will be hidden from view again. I might still do that, meanwhile, I wanted to share her… She obviously has been there for some time. I wonder at the stories she could tell.

Awww … someday… I’ll stop and …. Another mystery to unravel when time and inclination strike again…

Today Monday the 30th. there is one day left in the year 2024. Are you ready for a new year, another 365 days of adventures, new opportunities, new friends…

Use your results to make the next time even better

Whether “things” turn out perfectly or not, the important thing is to take what you’ve learned and apply it the next time.

PL2018.30

NB* the Chinese new year (lunar calendar) this year will be January 29 2025, ending Feb. 16.2026 – it will bring with it, wisdom, agility and strategic foresight. If you know your sign already, this year it will be the wood snake. The wood snake year may bring some challenges in career and finances, stay positive and flexible to overcome setbacks.. Focus and health, avoid negativity and you will handle the year with confidence and success.

Talent

There comes a time when we have to acknowledge that there are talented individuals out there.. Naria the vlogger/blogger who put together this video of a holiday show that was presented in Second Life for the holidays, is an “influencer” who helps showcase the many individuals in the virtual world who work behind the scenes to entertain and bring happiness and smiles to everyone… Not just the communities within Second Life, but to everyone!

Every avatar you see is a “person” who has spent hours not only developing their online personalities, but working together to put together this musical. The set designers, the costume makers, the makeup artist… No one person does it alone..

So it is in our everyday world. Please everyone..

Let’s find the good in others and praise them

All people have good qualities and bad qualities, Focus on the good in others and applaud them every chance you get.

Accept Everything

Life is filled with moments, sometimes happy and a times, inconvenient. It is important to first accept every situation as it occurs and try to accept and understand it for what it is.

Quiet

There is a quiet

that engulfs and captures my thoughts

a quiet that fills me with a feeling full of an emotion

I can not name

it isn’t part of a game, nor do I seek fame

But, I do want to lay claim

To the ever present energy

That courses through my veins

is this an insanity or am I sane….. and

all the chatter is in vain

I ask

does it even matter

the moment has passed

Past, Present or Future, always remember to be sincere and Honest. At anytime, the place where you are standing at that moment is the stage upon which you must express yourself. At each moment in time, there is sure to be a way to express yourself in relation to your position or status.

Wednesday

All the little reindeer are getting ready for their big haul coming up. They have to keep in shape, work their muscles, and keep their limbs flexible… build their stamina. We are being told to expect our first big snow drop…there were snow dustings yesterday. Time to put the sand and a shovel into the car, make sure the ice and snow scrapers are within reach. You ready?

When you get stuck, go back to the beginning

Could it be that you have forgotten what initially sparked your enthusiasm? By remembering what inspired you in the beginning, you will feel a renewed enthusiasm.

For those of you following the car saga, Its back, however it is not finished, there is still a problem with the wi-fi system, I can get calls, but no one can hear me.. could be the speaker or another wire that is malfunctioning!… but it can’t go back in till the 10th. Not having it for over a week, means I have a lot of “catch up ” to do. Positive side. I will be unavailable while in my car /out on runs etc… just like in the good old days of landlines and no wi-fi in cars. Always look for the silver lining!!!!!!

Have a great day everyone, and IF you are in an area where the snow is coming or has come, please be prepared. Check your anti-freeze, the windshield washer fluids are they minus weather grade, do you have a shovel, sand/salt in the car if you travel outside the city a must ….. yup winter is here. In Canada winter tires are a necessity … NB* in some Provinces you will be ticketed or fined if you are travelling without them. Take heed. Be Prepared.

good morning!

When you get confused start with something you can handle. When facing a difficult project, begin with a small piece of the puzzle that you can handle. No matter how complicated a huge puzzle may seem, if you begin with a small part, the rest should begin to gradually take shape.

I have been doing (trying to do) a puzzle a day. (I have discovered doing puzzles on my cell/iPhone.) It is a good way to “be in the moment”…

Have a great Saturday everyone, the cars in the parking lots (shopping centres) yesterday was mind boggling. Did you participate in the Black Friday sales? Kudos you are a shopping warrior!

Casablanca in November

Let your gratitude show in your words and actions.

When you live each day with a feeling of true gratitude, you and the people around you will be happy. Always remember to express your “thank you’s” out loud. (PL2017.21)

Welcome the new while respecting the old.

Every generation brings forth new and positive changes, but also relies on the wisdom of the past. Be able to appreciate both and take the best from each. (PL2017.18)

Have a great start to a new week everyone!

Sunday

We are capable of handling whatever comes our way.

Instead of asking yourself,, “Can I do it?” simply tell yourself ,”I’m going to do it!” Then, give it your best effort. (PL2017.17)

Eartha “hey want to go to the States tomorrow” Me, “sure, ” and as simple as that, the next day (yesterday) we were on the road to Norther NY State. If anyone has information on how to find the Amish community in the area between Watertown and Massena… it would be appreciated if you could drop me a line, we’d even travel further down towards Syracuse.

There is a good Chinese Buffet in Watertown… in the shopping Centre with the Joanne’s and the Dollar Tree. We got there as they were changing over from the lunch buffet to the dinner one. The dinner selection had more seafood. Prices were reasonable the same variety up here would be between 25- 35 dollars on a week-end.. For two yesterday it was under 40 for both of us. Incl. tip.

Yes it was dark when we were driving home.. but Eartha was a pro… it was a breeze for her..

Have a great Sunday everyone…. oh.. in the States, we found less Xmas cheer in some stores, we were told they wanted to focus on Thanksgiving.. Up here, Xmas decor and merchandise is in full swing. (was looking for that “ugly” sweater.)

Cheers – Till soon!
