Quote of the Day...

  • "It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power." Alan Cohen

See you in December...

Hello there.

As you are aware I am doing the NaNoWriMo in the month of November. I am still working on my outline etc., and I expect I will need every moment of the next 7 days to prepare the way I want to before the contest starts.

For the next 7 days and the 30 following for the actual contest, I will only be updating one of my blogs - Writing is Good for the Soul. You can find it by looking at my complete profile and switch to it from there, or you can simply type in http://www.writingisgoodforthesoul.blogspot.com.

I wish you all the best for the month of November and I'll be back to regular posts in early December - if my fingers have recovered by then *lol*..

Attitude of Gratitude


I'm back baby.. and I'm feeling better than ever. I can't tell you how happy that makes me! Well I could, but I would most likely bore you to death *lol*

The last few weeks have brought me to this point and I can honestly say I am so glad to be enjoying the sun, the rain and the fall that is approaching.

I was out in the garden on the weekend - for the first time in a long time - and it was wonderful.

I planted another 326 bulbs for the spring... about 250 of them are tulips and I can hardly wait to see them bloom. I was so pleased to notice that the bulbs from last year had taken so well so I think when they all come out there will be so many wonderful blooms of color for everyone to enjoy.

It is so amazing to feel good and to enjoy such small treasures...

Now I get to watch all the leaves changing color on the trees - which is one of my favorite things to do at this time of year...

I am so lucky... and so grateful. I hope you take the time to realize the gifts you have in your life too.
