Snow has been falling for hours. Temperatures have dropped significantly. The milder weather of last week, with thawing and rain means that now… walking will be dangerous for all who walk without care. Why? because, the snow is so white, inviting, the wind has died down enough that there is no blowing snow to blind you when it whips around your face. the lovely light fluffy snow is hiding black ice in places where previously there had been a puddle or any irregular dips, cracks in the sidewalks.
I’m dreaming of strolling through landscapes of gentle meandering walkways through manicured gardens with interesting buildings to enjoy. If you saw the virtual blog with the Taoist build, you might enjoy exploring this site.. After seeing yesterday’s blog a friend sent me the link to this beautiful location. Here is the link. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Cozy%20Cove/188/98/24 Note this is an adult sim. It is called Koromo a Tsukete Ageta, Cosy Cove.

Have a great rest of the day, enjoy and relax, tomorrow is the start to new work week.
It is not often I allow myself the luxury of picking these delicious delights up, but after last night I felt I deserved something special. If anyone knows what the country of origin is for these tasty morsels I would appreciate it if you could let me know. I came across them about a year or so ago, there was a package on sale at a local specialty food shop … I thought why not… I was feeling adventurous.. I was not prepared for just how much I would enjoy them. I suspect they are laden with calories.. so I don’t allow myself the luxury, especially when prices have gone up so much. I eat them cold right out of the packaging. (they are found in the fresh food deli section .)
What happened last night. Grief,, sorrow, delayed reaction to the loss of my precious Canaille.
Canaille was a Porti (Portuguese Water Dog) who stole my heart the moment I met her. She and I bonded like nothing I had ever experienced before. We went everywhere together, she was my constant companion, My husband graciously allowed her to sleep with us, he knew there was no parting us.
When he was diagnosed with terminal cancer with only a very limited time to live, I rushed home to get documents they needed at the hospital and get personal items he needed. When I got home, she was having a stroke… I rushed her to the vet… and… well… you know the rest… it was a devasting day for me, but I needed to move forward. I never had time to properly grieve for her… Then recently a friend sent me pictures he found on an old disk I had given him… the above picture was what he sent me… Its been 8 years but the blinding grief, hit me so suddenly it was like it happened yesterday. We can’t go back, life moves on… but …. the hurt, the sorrow, the stabbing reality of the loss …. has shaken me to the core.
Life is fleeting, please… don’t squander time with loved ones… cherish the moments you get to hold them, share time with them… when its gone, there is nothing left but the memory.
Today’s message..
Offer your services instead of expecting from others.
Take the initiative to do what you can to help others. Understand their needs and act swiftly.

Although the tongue weighs very little, few people are able to hold it. (God’s little devotional book)
It is easy to misinterpret the situation and jump to conclusions. Always have a humble attitude and double check to make sure.

We’ve had a warm spell, snow, rain, freezing rain, and now.. forecast is temperatures to dip back to more normal temps.. -11 degrees… fun! Be careful out there.
Hi everyone. I see I missed yesterday. What an upside down day it was. You have all been aware that I have had this nasty flu virus for the last month plus.. Some days barely able to even try to be social, never mind thinking of getting up and going out. The last week so much improvement, I even (as shown above) went into SL (Second Life) to do some photography using the two dogs I found for posing with. The internet world of Second life ( Second Life is a persistent, 3D virtual world where users, represented by customizable avatars, can socialize, create content, explore diverse virtual environments, and even conduct real-world economic activities, functioning as a vast online platform for entertainment, education, and community beyond a typical game. Launched by Linden Lab in 2003, it allows people to build virtual lives, own property, attend events like concerts, and interact through text or voice chat, offering extensive freedom for self-expression and digital ownership. ) is a wonderful “adult sitter” when we are confined at home dealing with a stubborn virus.
When you re not having fun, could it be because you rare being lazy?
Sometimes you feel blue or can’t seem to find the joy in doing anything. At times like this, just get up and move your body, or work your mind to the fullest extent.

I went to church today, it was “Day of Appreciation” unfortunately I had to leave early, my body/mind said enough enough, I was getting overtired, it wasn’t even 10:30 a.m. yet. I excused myself and silently slipped away… came home and climbed back in to bed. I felt it was important to say “thank you” to the Universe, because…. even though I’m not 100% yet, I feel so much better.
How are you all doing? How is the year spinning for you so far? Do your best to stay healthy, stay home if you start feeling a cold/flu coming on, stay away from friends/family if they are sick.
Don’t give up! Stick with it, as many times as it takes
Sometimes you want to just throw in the towel and say, “I give up” but, that’s the time for you t dig deep and push through. Your sincere effort will invite a good outcome.
