Monday, Monday........

*  This morning I looked in the mirror and was amused to see, during the night, my hair went one way - I went the other.  I made a pot of coffee before attempting to rectify it.

* It was a beautiful frosty morning; my whole body was completely energized.  It helped that I slept like a baby.  When I sleep so well it reminds me to appreciate those small things without clinging to them.  There are going to be nights I don't sleep well (or at all).  There are going to be mornings when I have to drag myself out of bed due to a cold or injury.  So good for last night and this morning - I'm grateful.

*  I'm working overtime today - 9am to 9pm.  I always arm myself with a variety of foodstuffs.  Today Apple, some grapes, lunch (PB&J Sammich), Microwave Popcorn, Raw Veggies w/Italian dressing, two bottles of herb iced tea (I made the night before).  I resisted the urge to include dinner because I know I'll want to make something when I get home anyway.

*  I made myself remember, as I looked in the mirror on my way out the door this morning, that it's okay for me to be me.  I am a perfect reflection of the universe.  I wonder if a mature adult should have to remind themselves of something like that? 

7 Things MeMe

I was tagged by k2rider78 

7 things about me that you might not already know...

1.  I had a horse grownig up named Ka Hekili Au Ka Makai.  He was Morgan-Arabian 14.2 hands.  I showed him English & Western Pleasure, and we did barrel racing (once....we weren't very good at it).  :-)

2.   I was bitten by a feral cat when I was in my mid twenties and ended up in the hospital having to have micro surgery to get the infection out of my right wrist.  Still have the scar(s) which kind of looks like I tried to cut my wrist backwards.


3. I won an honorable mention in the 1979 High School Kodak photography contest (for my state).  They showed my picture in the Ala Moana Mall... :-)


4.  I was in FFA in high school, and I won 1st place in Agriculture Demonstration at the 1980 convention for Hawaii.  I demonstrated how to root herbaceous cuttings (some guys before me demonstrated castrating a piglet - I thought they were going to win for sure)


5. I've been to Tokyo Disneyland.


6.  I  "REALLY" like having my feet massaged.  It's hereditary.... my dad passed it to me (though he was more neck/back massages which us kids took turns treating him to - I still remember all of us crawling on his back like little insects).....I passed it to my daughter.  Scary stuff.


7.  I was born in Greenfield, Massachussets.
