From the road...

As you might guess, I'm having too much fun to spend a great deal of time on the computer!

We're still in Florida, USA and enjoying lovely weather. The native Floridians think it is cold here - nights have been into the 50 degree (F) range from time to time. Makes me laugh, really. Back home in the mountains of New Mexico our friends are REALLY cold. Nights there have been into the 30 degree range and the heaters are on. Poor babies.

Yesterday, we spent a few hours on Manasota Beach. I had hoped to insert a picture or two, but I am on a friend's computer and ...well... it's just this way. This link will show you a few lovely things even though they are not my own pictures.

Also, due to technical difficulties with the internet connection here at my friend's house, I'm also not able to check up on my Google Reader links and so haven't found most of you. I'm woefully behind on checking up on what you are up to these days. I confess, I really only miss you while I'm having my morning coffee; otherwise, I'm just having way too much fun.

We'll settle in by a good WiFi connection one of these days and I'll check in. Meanwhile, may all be well with you.

Laura; right here and in person (so to speak)

How to recreate yourself after a crisis.

 

I'll have more to say as I work on my own stuff. I thought a few of you might like to 'meet' Laura in a different way.

A general FYI and a note about upcoming stuff

I'm still on a pet-job and haven't been on my own computer in a week. And on Monday, we leave on our road trip to Florida. We'll be gone at least 3 weeks, I think. Dates are tentative, return a sure thing but unscheduled.

I'm WAY far behind on my Google Reader subscriptions, so if you're counting me among the missing, just know that I will be back one day...  : )  (Wanna meet me on the beach?)

Now, just in case any of you followed some of my links to posts by Laura regarding her work on death & dying...OR...if you are interested in that subject for any reason, I want to point you that way again.

Her blog site is here.

Some of her latest ideas are in this particular blog post.

Without going on too much, I will tell you that Laura was my business coach for awhile, and we bacame good friends after that. She has excellent credentials for her next steps - which seem likely to be workshops on the themes of conscious living, and on conscious death & dying - both for oneself, posssibly, and certainly for living through this process for those you love.

I've gotta go; the dogs are ready for their walk, and they mean NOW! But I wanted to do this in case I don't get back here for a few days.

TTFN
and May all be well with you.

If you don't mind...

...a little humorous bastardization of Rossini, here's a wonderful a cappella arrangement of The Barber of Seville. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. 

a friend sent it to me this morning. I had to answer back with a piece by the old Swingle Singers. Does anyone remember them? They are still around, but I still love the original group.

Shaula, thanks for the memories... 

Happy Morning, all. May you have a lovely Sunday. 

An Important Message About Bullying

This is making the rounds of Facebook, so it is quite possible that you've seen it, already.

But it IS Very IMPORTANT, so a little repetition won't hurt - and the bullying does hurt. Help spread this around, please.
