Marvelous Monday

Monday itself might have been the “victorious” in my focusing exercise. It was a glorious day 18 degrees C, sunny, full of Fall colours.  I just soaked it up. It was a vivacious “in your face” kind of day and I didn’t mind at all!! My daughter called too with her “victory.” She has a

Sunny Sunday

Today made up for yesterday.  It was a beautiful sunny day, almost warm, with a breeze. People were in shirt sleeves or light jackets. There was no need to bundle up.  It was an unfettered day. We were not constrained by time either. We didn’t have to be here or there by this hour or

Soggy Saturday

Rain is tangible. Very wet leotards clinging to sodden thighs is tangible.  I feel as though I am about to write a Gothic novella or something; but then I realized that I used the word “leotard.” Nobody uses that word anymore, unless you’re a member of the National Ballet and even then maybe not. So

On sanity, sanctity and salience…

Sanctity was one of my focusing words yesterday. Maybe I should have chosen sanity too. I have started to build a website in wordpress. I know that building a blog in WP is easy and that’s where it ends!! A website is quite a different matter!! There was nothing holy about it and by the

From here to eternity….

……and back again. The “radical” in yesterday may have been a dinner conversation with our 19-year- old.  It started like this. Nick (19-year-old), “Serge (a friend) said that there were more moves in Chess than there were electrons on Earth.” Parents, “Really (in unison).” Nick, “Also did you know that if you took all the

Quantum leaps…

Maybe not so.  I have another blog and website which sits on a back burner, because I have plans for it later.  Well the webmaster that created and hosts the site has never got it right.  Last night I exploded!! The same problems were there again with pdf downloads from the site.  If I could

Kalon is a word…?

Here are some of the focusing words from the blog that I have been following: J – Jovial, Jacked, Justice K – Kinetic, Kind, Kalon L – Light, Laughter, Loving M & N – do not have a post as yet – or I can’t find it. O – Oneness, Ovation, Orbital I understand that

October’s occult…

Samhain cometh – Oct 31/Nov1. Samhain is the last of the four significant days that mark the changing of the seasons in Celtic Mythology. It marks the end of the lighter half of the year and the beginning of the darker. It is considered a time of great communication with the “otherworld” – the world

words

Nature, Nurture & Nothing!!

We went out yesterday to buy bulbs to nurture our garden – we probably should apply manure too; but we needed to replenish the bulbs that have disappeared over the years and buying packages of pretty pictures with the promise of Spring is so much more enjoyable than buying a bag of sheep dung.  We’ll

words

Mumbrella and other “M” words….

I need to do a bit of catching up again. “Life” has a way of putting roadblocks into writing and other pastimes. Saturday I had a booth at the Woodstock Fleece Festival, so I travelled down on Friday and set up.  Friday my focusing words were Laugh, Live, Love. Well you can certainly feel “alive”
