Good day everyone,… my tuning forks arrived.. missing from the picture is the rubber disc used to tap the forks on. (you can find info on Tuning Fork healing via. internet /or AI) I didn’t have time when they arrived to have a proper look, so it was bedtime before I took them out and had a look at what arrived. I sat back and played them all. Enjoying the white vibrations from the various forks,.. It was pleasant .. I look forward to really working with them… I mention this because… I slept this morning till mid morning.. I usually wake around 4, 5 a.m. Today it was almost 10:30 a.m. when I woke up !!! NO outing to the woodlands, or to feed the crows… I am usually on the road between 7 and 8 .. no later.

I am revamping one of my characters for a short story I’m doing.. When doing her face. I used a skin from a designer I don’t often use… I was getting ready to make changes when it struck me that the face looked very familiar to me. I know I’ve seen it many times but I can’t place the series she was on. So I left her face the way it was… and I’m building her character around the persona I’m getting from her. If by chance her appearance rings a bell .. could you let me know.. please. and thank you.
Now for today’s quote.
It is not fun to be stuck in one place
Instead of being captured by what’s in front of you, strive to broaden your horizons

Cheers everyone, have a great Sunday.

the character was middle aged , she was not the lead, but had a supporting role and was seen regularly. She was angular and thin just like the avatar you see above
How many times have you walked into a room only to discover, you don’t recall why you decided to get up and go into that room? You knew with certainty you were on a mission. Then when you get into the room, you look at your computer, the clutter on the desk, and can’t for the life of you, remember what you got up for, I admit it has happened to me a few times, but nothing so serious that I worried about it. If its important, you’ll remember, words of wisdom … there is enough going on in the world today that we should think about… I think someone wrote a book, “don’t sweat the small stuff”.. — so how are you today? Survive the festive meals, family get togethers? Yesterday came and went in a blur. Today is another day, a new beginning..
PL Precept # 1 Life is Art.

Thinking of you and yours during this special time… Be well.. be happy,
Snow covers the ground a beautiful blanket of white. Holiday music is heard every where we go. You ready for the season of holiday cheer and festive gatherings? Not to be a wet blanket, but it isn’t a holiday for everyone, please be aware of the hardships others may be facing.
Sincere condolences and prayers go out to the families that are facing the loss of a family member… or having to spend time in the health care facilities who are open 24/7. The support workers who work holiday and shifts, who can’t just stop what they are doing to celebrate. Hats off to the work crews who no matter what the day, night … if the weather decides to play havoc with travel, they are out working to keep our roads safe. Its not a party for everyone…
Work happily with good rhythm
If you take on your tasks willingly, you will enjoy the task and you may even be rewarded with a more positive outcome.
a memory – a long time ago, my husband (at that rime) was the morning man for a radio station in Montreal. The owner bought a station in Nova Scotia and wanted to ensure good ratings, so he talked my husband into doing a stint in NS. I was a city girl, having lived always in big cities, the most recent one was Montreal. I was not amused. But pack up and fly to Cape Breton .. we did. Talk about culture shock… I’m talking years ago, when life was simpler.
While exploring ..one cold winter day, we parked and started on foot across a big open expanse of land, we could hear the surf pounding (the Atlantic Ocean was never far away from where we lived) We used snowshoes so that we could make better time across the snow. As we came to a wooded area, and made our way around it, there sitting as pretty as you please was this small wooden cabin (like the one above)… only it was winter and there was smoke coming from the chimney.
A elderly man came out (Mr. MacDonald).. he graciously invited us in for tea.. to warm up… I was totally charmed, he lived alone out there, he had to walk out and into the little wooded area we passed to his private little loo… in the one room home, he had a wood stove, that heated the home, and doubled as the stove. I must ask Dean if he had electricity, I don’t think he did.. but there could have been a single line to the cabin, for a lighting.. I recall he had some kind of root cellar for keeping things cool.
I came across this picture earlier and it got me thinking… this was a moment that I lived years ago (another life time) but it stayed with me, his genuine hospitality, to two “weird” strangers tromping across his land. BTW the ocean was just over the hill, when we got to the small hill and walked to the top, below us was the ocean pounding in on a deserted beach strewn with big pieces of driftwood. It was doable (getting down) we were young, we left snowshoes in the snow and were able to scramble down the steep incline to the water’s edge. (couldn’t do that today)

Life is what we make it folks.. I am fortunate to be able to say I am grateful for the friends in my life, and for knowing love .. and the blessing and rewards it brings to living on this earth.
That beautiful dusting of snow… a hint of what could be in the coming days/weeks. A gentle tease for now,
Willingly take on tasks that are behind the scenes
Be the one who is able to proactively take on the troublesome tasks that no one likes and fore which they are not recognized. By dong so, you will be filled with a genuine feeling of accomplishment.
View your difficulties as a chance to make rapid progress

Ever alert and ready for a hug/kisses… meet Fiel… my secret love…. I get to visit with him from time to time. There is nothing like a “dog hug/greeting”
