Today…..

Yesterday, I keyed in the word “today” in my MAC’s title bar. It was quite amazing what turned up. At the top of the list was the site “todayIfoundout.com.” Here I found links to some fascinating articles, including: Jane Elliot and the blue-eyed children experiment. This is a serious article and very enlightening, however, there were […]

Monday, Monday…..

Walked for well over half an hour yesterday, day-two of my challenge – just another 28 to go and if it’s to become a habit, then it has to go waaaaay beyond a mere 28 days. I’ll keep you posted. In the meantime, I have been working through some of the links in highexistence.com. The

Challenge III

I broke the 30 challenges for 30 days into 3 separate blogs because as with anything – too much information is just that – too much!! For those just tuning in the site highexistence.com has suggested that it requires 30 days of repeatedly doing something to make it a habit and they have suggested a

Challenged…..

Every once in a while I get the feeling that the Cosmos is speaking to me. You know, a bit of junk mail arrives just as you were thinking the same thing – take a trip, sell the house, order in. Well, yesterday I got a feed to my FB wall that read: 30 Challenges

For Whom the Binoculars Search

I have to acknowledge in a post the passing of a famous Canadian artist Alex Colville. I have always loved his work. His paintings belong to the school of photo-realism, I understand.

Share-a-pic

I just found another photo-sharing site – imgur.com. The pictures are really funny and don’t require professional photography skills – just a sense of humour. I have tried posting in a few on-line photography collections that actually made your photographs available for sale.  Needless to say, I have not sold one of mine. Maybe this

I Scream, You Scream….

We all scream for ice cream – well maybe not these flavours. I know that I post a lot from Mental Floss – alas, I may have met my soulmate in a nerdy, mensa magazine – and my own IQ isn’t even up there with the biggies or the nerdies or something. Anyway, if they

The Brain Idles…..

I am sitting here at the kitchen table thinking. Actually I’m not really thinking productively, I’m just letting thoughts idle around in my head. Well, I am trying to come up with an idea for a blog this morning and I have had some “idea glimmers.” Can I call them that? These are the thoughts
