Someday, I would absolutely love to travel. I enjoy experiencing new culture. Sharing and experiencing it with someone makes it all the better. A big part of Maine borders Canada so in some ways, I don't even think about Canada as being in a different country as that's where technically most of my traveling/experiencing culture comes from these days. Besides visiting Quebec (only twice sad to say), we enjoy visiting the towns and villages of coastal New Brunswick throughout the summer. We've also been to Bermuda once as well as to London and some of England's country side. There's just so much to see and so little time to be able to appreciate it fully.

You Belong in Dublin

Friendly and down to earth, you want to enjoy Europe without snobbery or pretensions. You're the perfect person to go wild on a pub crawl... or enjoy a quiet bike ride through the old part of town.

And look at that, I stayed in the UK. Maybe that's a sign that we (as I SUPPOSE I could DRAG Honey along.... ) should start at the top and begin to work our way down....tee hee.



Dublin definitely has been on the Want to See list for awhile.
Do you enjoy traveling? Is there some place that you would like to visit some day? Care to share????

I just want to slow down long enough to catch my breath. Do this, go here, clean this, be this, follow this, do that, go there..... you get the picture, I'm sure.

Wow. Is it too much to ask to make my family disappear for, well... a week would be absolutely fabulous. A week to myself... well, it just wouldn't happen. And, I would probably get pretty lonely in the end. Three days???? yeah... that would be a bit of heaven. I would definitely enjoy three days here alone in my own house playing catch up with out distractions and other craziness. It ain't gonna happen, however.

At this point, I'd just take the day. Of course, I proababy wouldn't get anything really done in a day, but it would hopefully give me a chance to catch my breath, to be able to slow down a moment, to focus, to refill the batteries with what I need but can't seem to find because I feel like I am so far behind with EVERYTHING that I'm acting like a chicken with my head cut off. (shudders at the image)

How and why does this happen? And, will I ever frickin catch up???

Last night I stayed up past midnight just trying to find myself and make sense on a little of what is going on. It didn't go so overly well and I ended up tossing and turning a lot last night. 1:47 am was just not a happy moment for me last night because I was STILL awake.

Yesterday I had to work late, this morning it's trying to make some sort of headway in this place. Pumpkin is out of socks, once again. Of course, I do lay the blame with her. She'd have socks if she didn't ball them up and throw them under her bed or wherever rather than put them in the laundry like she is supposed to. She learned that from her dad... This afternoon it's off to the dentist, grocery shopping, and running errands. I will be picking up frozen pizza on the run tonight for supper. It's gonna be the best I can do tonight.

I miss my blogging friends. I am starting to feel disconnected because I havne't really been able to visit like I wish. That's not a pleasant feeling for me.

On the bright side, the sun is out and the air is fairly warm!!! It's WONDERFUL!!! I have clothes in the washing machine just waiting to go out on the clothes line.... Yay! All my bills have been paid for the outgoing month. another wonderful Yay! Yesterday when Honey was at the trailer, a stranger stopped in asking Honey if he had any metal that he'd like to part with. Honey had a BUNCH of old bicycles and other "stuff" that we were going to have to get rid of. They made a deal that as long as the guy hauls it off, he is welcome to it. Also, the additions are pretty much off the trailer now. So... More progress. yay!!!! The woman who bought the trailer has decided that she would like to have it moved by the end of the month. Yay!

So, I am just trying to one by one cross things off the ever growing list. Focus is a big part of the problem here as I start to do something, get interrupted and move on to something else before I remember.. oh, that's right.. I was trying to do ???. Remember Sabrina from Bewitched? I'm a little envious of the nose trick right about now....

Song: Have You Got It In You

It takes a lot,
To be always on form,
It takes a lot,
Or maybe not, all the time,
All I've got,
Maybe not,

Been one of those days
Safety first,
Don't push... what's the hurry?
One nerve remaining,
Waiting on one look...
Have you got it?
Have you got it in you?
Have you got it in you?

All at once, not a whisper, nor word
Then all at once...
Let me have it all,
Let me have a battle on,
Easy target
Look can we just...
Just get it over with
It's getting worse,
Against all the odds...
It's getting worse
Guard down,
Floor's yours,
Last man standing can we,
Just get it over with?

Been one of those days...
Safety first,
Don't push (don't push me)
What's the hurry?
Cause there's one nerve remaining,
Waiting on one look (one look now)
Have you got it?
Have you got it in you?
Have you got it in you?

Blue blue day make me blue
Head down, quick!
Take cover, big girl in a mood
Blue, you make me anymore blue?
Long spin shout power clean
Right out of your suit

Been one of those days...
Safety first,
Don't push... what's the hurry?
One nerve remaining,
Waiting on one look...
Have you got it?
Have you got it in you? .......




Woke up this morning with so many plan to get things done. But tonight, I don't think one thing on my list could be crossed off. It was just one of those weird days. Honey was gone all day again. I was really hoping to get out of the house today, but, well... such is life. This morning he continued to take down more of the addition on the trailer next door and in the afternoon, he got the opportunity to go play with the horses. He and Rita hooked up (separately of course) Daddy Friesian as well as Misty and did some driving exercises with them both. Pumpkin, who had been running a fever, didn't wake up with one this morning, but with the cold damp weather, and that still nasty cough, thought it may not help any to have her out and about. Plus, now Parrot is starting with a cough. Sigh....

Hopefully I'll have pleasant dreams tonight and wake up with a fresh start tomorrow. Now, lets see, what can bring me a smile......

You Need Some Green in Your Life

Green will make you feel alive, renewed, and balanced. And with a little green, you will project an aura of peacefulness and harmony. If you want stability, you've got to get a little green in your life! For extra punch: Combine green with blue or purple The downside of green: It can promote jealousy in yourself or others The consequences of more green in your life: You will be drawn to a new life path You will feel free to pursue new ideas and interests, no matter how strange You will be released from the demands and concerns of others

I find color therapy, or colorology, very interesting, as well as people's reaction to it. Interesting how some absolutely dismiss it and then some embrace it as part of their philosophy. I admit that I can't, for instance, go to my closet and reach in and wear whatever I randomly grab. Often, I have to sit on the side of the bed and stare, sometimes for a long time, until one shirt or what not just feels... right. My tee shirts look nearly exactly the same, but pulling the yellow one over my head when I really leaned towards the blue, just isn't going to work. Is that colorology? I don't really question it, but if it's blue I really want, blue it is. Or green, as the case may be today.... And a little extra balance, stability and peacefulness would definitely hit the spot today!!!!!tee hee.....






opps.... moment of girlyness....



Happy Friday!
