Saturday

.

Today is a brand new day. If you think, “it’s just another day” your life will simply be stagnant and unchanging. You are in fact given this unique day, unlike any other, so live it to the fullest.

I like to think of myself as always being creative and able to adapt. Surprise, I uses and avatar to navigate and get around in a virtual world. Over the years, she has changed as the technology has changed, so I was really surprised when I was not forced to, but it was time for an update and I made changes by updating to a more “today” head. The technology of the world around me in the virtual world has been changing in leaps and bounds, and I was still years behind in the technology I was using to get around.

It was a shock to see the transformation, and to realize that the face looking back at me, was me, but she wasn’t. Kind of like looking in a mirror and realizing the face and body you see is not what you remember it to be. In talking to others who have undergone the same “changes” it seems that it is not a quick fix, but one I’ll be adjusting to over the next while.

Like life really, I think and feel like me, but when I see myself in a mirror or pass a shop window, I’m always taken by surprise that there is someone else with me.

For you who follow my adventure in the “woods” I walked one of the trails yesterday, So I covered over a mile over snow packed down by snowshoes/X-country skiis, and hikers. The snow is a hard crust but beware in many places it was soft under the ice, and you could drop a good foot or more before hitting a hard surface. I was glad I had my poles with me. For sure it would have been disaster in places had I not also been wearing cleats. Also. note if you venture out and .. if you are not familiar with the trails, stay on the main one if you can determine which one it is.. landmarks are very different or non existent with all the snow and fallen trees.

On the plus side, the woods the last week or so have been filled with the singing of birds. Lots of birds. Days are getting longer, and we have had ”mostly” a mild winter, If you love the happy chirping of birds… take a walk in the woods.. Pure awesomeness.

Friday

Always think that everything will work out. When you allow yourself to be pessimistic, your thought and actions become sluggish. Approach everything optimistically without hesitating.

Good Morning. sharing a picture taken the other day at the breakfast buffet. This is only a small number of the guests. They interact and share in almost an orderly fashion, it does get loud tho’… I think they invite all their “clan” for miles around.

Have a great week-end.

Wednesday

Rather than thinking “I have to…” think “OK, Let’s do this!“ When you procrastinate and put things off until later, you will make things harder than they need to be. Get up and do it now.

Doors

Good morning, since showing you a picture of my fridge door would not be as pleasing, I will introduce you to Gananoque, Ontario, a picturesque little town along the Canadian side of the St. Lawrence river, while I wait for my Lobster Bisque to cool to a temperature that is comfortable at this hour of the morning.

Back to the fridge door and the lobster bisque. I opened the fridge door at 3 something a.m. to get a glass of water, and found that the bisque lobster had tipped over and was now redecorating the interior of the fridge. Keeper (my whippet) was happy to sniff around to see if any had gotten down to her level, she always wants to help in such matters, However, since the door was already opened, and I was faced with the mess… I did what I do best in such matters I closed the door.

OK.. so I did clean up the mess up first, and while at it, instead of the water I had been in search of I had some cold bisque. Let’s face it. it is liquid and it actually was tasty. So there you have it, why bisque for breakfast. And.. a serving of doors.

A word of caution tho’ if you are going to get domestic in the wee hours, you will find that doing dishes could be one of your early morning activities. That is not a nightmare, but a morning horror.

The best timing to take action is when you notice it. When you take note of something, it is a signal from God/UNIVESE that you should take care of it right away.

PL Precept #1   Life is Art

PL Principle # 1   I will live paying careful attention, putting Makoto into all I say and do,

Life has been “busy” and “cold” we are coming out of a cold snap, last night before bed, maybe around 10pm I was out shoveling snow, clearing the play area in the backyard so that Keeper could go out and not be having to maneuver through the snow..again, yup it was snowing again. Yes, I could wait till this morning, but then,,, there would be more of it, and I have things I do in the morning, (routines) Besides, it was dark, it was quiet, and I could go out and shovel in the darkness of night, and simply BE.

All was calm and good till I realized I couldn’t find my cell phone. No wonder it had been so quiet. !!! Fortunately I was able to send a message to a friend (via PC) .. who called me… Eventually the delinquent phone was found….  which reminds me, I have to go find my cell phone and clear the messages.. or no one will be able to leave a message, Is it just my cell, or do all cell phones only allow for 2 messages?

Life is good if this is my only dilemma this morning. Have a good one everyone! Blink and we will be in February.
