1. I drove on the beltway twice today for a short distance. 2. My son said great job mom for doing that. 3. My man said he was proud of me for doing that. I feel so blessed for these 3 things.

(yay M!!!) 1. I woke up. Never sure I will. 2. My ceiling didn't leak with all the rain. 3. I'm still in remission and so much better than I was this time last year (and so are my cats.) I am too blessed to be stressed.

Hi Beth, Mocha and Retired! Retired, I love your "I am too blessed to be stressed." I am going to have to remember that! 1. I am up in my chair and able to move around today on my own! 2. The weather here is beautiful and the windows are open! 3. Mr. Sweetie Juju Pie is growing, was a good boy for his first haircut and is still very loving! Now, if he would just sit still so I could his nails, I would be really grateful!

FAVRAH thrift shop actually had some real deals 3. I DID get all my erands done plus mailing Barbara card 4. Maggie loves her new kitty grass 5. I was brave enough to let the dentist go ahead 6. I got a good nap in the car outside the health club

1. It is a beautiful Fall day here. 2. A son was born this morning to a family in our church. They were told by doctors they could never have a child. 3. There was good news about a young boy the church has been praying for.

Tuesday oct 10, 2006 It was a rough day yesterday, although I got a lot done, but so much better today. 1. Dug in and got some financial stuff in shape; now just the "easy part" is left. 2. Let go of some old bedding and a foot stool, and am feeling the freedom from no longer having to "care" for those items. 3. Hallmark Channel confirmed that I will be a guest on their morning show, to be taped on October 24th in New York City and shown at a later date. Now I just have to figure out how I'm going to get to see it! I have access to cable only infrequently, and even that cable has put Hallmark in a higher "tier"!!

Hi Beth! Nice to see you posting! I am not sure how things will be going for me when the show will be aired, but if I am able to, I certainly wouldn't mind taping it and having my friend drop it in the mail to you. Sometimes I am confined to bed, so I can't promise. But, if you would like me to try my best, I shall. Just let me know the day and time.

Monday October 23, 2006 1. Got down to New York City after all, in spite of a closed bus terminal(!) and a taxi that both got lost and ran a stop sign, causing a near accident and throwing me 1/2 way off the seat. In any case, the good news is I phoned the bus company and managed to get on the bus after all; the taxi DID finally find the hotel (with help from a map print out from me!), and I wasn't injured in the brake-slam near-accident. 2. The most magical moment of the night: Stirred up by the events of my trip, I asked the desk clerk "which way to the water?" (meaning the Hudson River) and I actually found I was only 2 blocks away from both the water and the Seaport restoration at the tip of Manhattan. I got in touch with peace again as I heard the water lapping at the wooden piers, the seagulls calling, the silence of the night, the lights of the Brooklyn Bridge, the small collection of fisherman "night fishing" off the docks, and the "tall ships" (sailing ships of the 1800's and early 1900's, really tall, I never realized) towering upward into darkness....much more powerful in the dark than when I visited once in the daytime. 3. And leaping over to tuesday for #3, I really liked the hostess on the show where I was being interviewed and felt very much "at home" in front of the cameras.

3 Things that went right for Christmas Day (when I'm usually alone): 1. I was successful in hiring a college student to work for me on Christmas Day! We got in a good three hours of work: helped me both in making it seem a "normal" day, and in giving me human connection on a day which could be lonely. 2. Put out seeds for the birds as a special Christmas gift, and their bird song was bright and cheery: junco, chickadee, woodpecker, tufted titmouse, nuthatch. 3. And I had the laundry room all to myself, so got caught up with two full loads done.

Happy New Year, Dogdoc and Babyruth! My three positives for January 1st-2nd: 1. On Monday, what I thought would be a big problem turned out to be s little one. Bathtub was stopped up, and I don't like using chemicals. Researched on yahoo answers, and main suggestion was to remove drain cover and fish for hair clogs with tweezers...I was amazed that this simple action actually did the job! (Amazing considering the shortness of my hair, how much hair was lodged there!) 2. I hung my new calendar on Monday. I traded last years flower gardens for this year's beaches of the South Seas...really like looking at the sunbaked beaches...it takes me away! 3. Today Tuesday, the sun is flooding into my rooms and soothing my soul!

I finally managed to get a sticker out from my thumb that's been there for 3 weeks. The sun is out and it's nice and warm today. I will get to see my Grandson today.

Here's one from this weekend: I discovered a new hiking park, right in "my backyard", so to speak. I had driven by many times and thought it was just a ballfield-type park, but finally stopped today and discovered it's 35 acres of woodland trails, including beaver dam and pond! Managed to fit in two quick walks this weekend: 10 minutes on Saturday and 18 minutes on Sunday, and now I know it's there, can use more often! Appropriately enough the park is called "Mt. HOPE"!

early Tuesday morning: 1. The snow is falling softly here at daybreak and it looks fairyland beautiful; only expecting an inch or so, so can enjoy without worrying too much re driving! Enjoying it out the window as I type. 2. I delighted in seeing the tracks of my one visiting field mouse who has taken to coming in the middle of the night to snack on the seed I've put out for the birds. He seems to always come alone, and is quite fearless; once found him busily eating ignoring me as I stood just a foot away from him. He is really cute. He is also a "long distance runner": once something evidently did really scare him, and it was amazing to see him cover ground to get to the woods. 3. I am getting the warm fuzzies from people choosing my responses as "Best Answers" on Yahoo Answers, sometimes when I expect to be chosen "best" and sometimes not. Someone just now chose my answer as best for how to deal with pet who chews electric cords and gave me a HUG, not only for what I told her, but for what I didn't lecture her with! And a terminally-ill woman the other day really touched me when she said it was the first time she had really enjoyed giving out the "Best Answer" award and it gave her hope for her grandkids future that I had gone "above and beyond" (not really, I just enjoy research) in my answer.

1. I am glad Laralyn returned and others are posting here too. 2. I am glad people like Beth's answers on Yahoo. 3. I am glad that I can share with Beth that "When a mouse shows up as a totem it is time to pay attention to details, or an indication that you cannot see the forest for the trees. You may be so locked into details you forget the big picture". from Animal Speak
