nday afternoon here s a comment from a not really reader it s a рity you don t have a donate button i d most certainly donate to tһis brilliant blog i suppose for now i ll sеttle for boօk markіng and adding your rss feed to my google account ӏ look forward to brand new updates and will talk about this website with my facebook group talk soon hеre is my webpage link to anonymous s website or may i say spamsite those of you who have blogs receive this kind of comment all the time me too in fact before i write a blog post i look through my previous posts comments to make sure that none of the spam comments were actually posted i ve had to remove a few but it s just another time sink and now for what s on my mind today failure is not an option i m a failure as a blogger how did i get sucked into this belief i ve been pondering my lack of blog posts i ve written about a hundred posts in my mind only these past months have been a season of changes for me i m still immersed in some of them how much do you like change me not as much as i thought lately i ve been pondering this failure is not an option idea i want to understand it a few of the opposite beliefs we ve all heard read them fall down seven times get up eight try try try again we learn more from our failures than our successes a million more going back way back my first memory of school i remember it as clearly as if it were last week i was in second grade the teacher was writing words on the blackboard and asking the class to read them out loud i was already pretty good with words so i raised my hand and read antique pronouncing it as an tee cue of course the teacher corrected me an teek i felt mortified my face was beet red tears filled my eyes i wanted to disappear really disappear that s a pretty strong reaction isn t it strong enough that i remember it more than 50 years later i don t know which is the failure the misplaced confidence in my ability to pronounce a word or that my mistake had such a strong effect on me anyway maybe my fearing failure avoiding failure goes back that far maybe not so today is the day that i m going to turn this one upside down failure is great failure is a gift failure is a blessing in fact i welcome it failure means i m learning growing improving alive doing something living a life so there failure come on over i ve got room for you right here blessings and peace posted by sandra at 2 22 pm 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest thursday june 12 2014 my patriotic pedicure i had in mind to do this a couple of weeks

kitchen grateful for immediate care the expertise of the physician assistant who stitched it up health insurance that paid for most of it and family and friends who are helping me p s i am starting to think about sewing again whew i was beginning to wonder where my sewing mojo went blessings and peace posted by sandra at 10 41 am 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday march 18 2014 there s something about maxwell maxwell was born in hickory north carolina on march 17 2000 which means that he was 14 years old yesterday he is a british shorthair and he looked like this when he was about a month old and my daughter emily visited him for the first time here he is with three of his litter mates emily brought him here when he was 13 weeks old and he looked like this and a couple of weeks later when li l grey one of his many nicknames was about 9 months old he was diagnosed with a virus in his optic nerves what started out as a painful condition developed into a chronic health concern that is managed with daily medications interferon drops in his eyes and lysine crushed and mixed with his food twice a day when a flare up starts we add up to three additional medication drops which we keep on hand so that we can usually nip in the bud any flare up it has been several years since a flare up has fully developed even with this problem maxwell has a very good life and he brings us great joy and much laughter he is sweet and friendly he likes everybody about 10 years ago it is quite possible that maxwell saved our lives yes he alerted us by reaching up a wall over and over again until i checked it out to what turned out to be an electrical problem in a wall which prompted louie to turn off the power until he louie opened the wall and discovered some overheating wiring if maxwell hadn t alerted us to it we would have gone to bed and it s likely that a fire would have started and been well under way by the time a smoke detector would have sounded the alarm maxwell is very polite when it s time for his dinner he comes into the kitchen and crouches down staring at where his dinner would be if only someone would fix it for him please i think he d prepare it himself if he could he is my very own office max i had to take a photo of my laptop keyboard because he just loves to sit on it and pluck off the keys so that i could pop the keys back on in the right places one time he started to create a macro and another time he was busily composing an email perhaps to one of his brothers always one to love tissue paper he s opening his christmas present here and a help with holding down pattern pieces in my sewing room maxwell is not afraid of a little workout his newest interest is jigsaw puzzles he swishes off many pieces from the table onto the floor every day he comes upstairs every night at about 9 pm for his treats monday wednesday and friday hairball treats all other days tartar control treats i give him his treats he runs downstairs then reappears 5 minutes later as if to say okay i m here for my treats now as if he hadn t just had them every night because it is stress that is the greatest cause of a flare up we maintain a steady routine for him he is never left alone overnight my son chris maintains maxwell s medication and feeding routines and sleeps here the once or twice a year that louie and i are both away at the same time last tuesday night i returned home from florida on wednesday morning the very minute i removed the last item from my carry on bag maxwell did what he always does positioned himself on the bag and settled in for a nice nap while outside it was a blizzard really here s his day in photos these are just a few of the reasons that today i say happy birthday maxwell we love you li l grey maxwell house blue mr tomato head mr maxwell capitalize the important words is an editorial style choice although not one endorsed by the chicago manual of style or any other style guide really so what do you love about your pets blessings and peace posted by sandra at 2 09 pm 11 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday january 14 2014 a not so new year s resolution but still it s been a bit of a wild ride interiorly speaking and now that i m posting again and it s still january i thought i d share my resolution with you actually i didn t create it it s something written by blessed john xxiii roman catholic pope from 1958 to 1963 who surprised the world when at the age of almost 80 convened the second vatican council this is called the daily decalogue of pope john xxiii a person i could improve their my interior and exterior life tremendously by focusing on this daily for a year or longer actually after reading this each morning i just might select only one or two to incorporate into my life that day it would likely still result in progress only for today only for today i will seek to live the livelong day positively without wishing to solve the problems of my life all at once only for today i will take the greatest care of my appearance i will dress modestly i will not raise my voice i will be courteous in my behavior i will not criticize anyone i will not claim to improve or to discipline anyone except myself only for today i will be happy in the certainty that i was created to be happy not only in the other world but also in this one only for today i will adapt to circumstances without requiring all circumstances to be adapted to my own wishes only for today i will devote ten minutes of my time to some good reading remembering that just as food is necessary to the life of the body so good reading is necessary to the life of the soul only for today i will do one good deed and not tell anyone about it only for today i will do at least one thing i do not like doing and if my feelings are hurt i will make sure no one notices only for today i will make a plan for myself i may not follow it to the letter but i will make it and i will be on guard against two evils hastiness and indecision only for today i will firmly believe despite appearances that the good providence of god cares for me as no one else who exists in this world only for today i will have no fears in particular i will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful and to believe in goodness indeed for twelve hours i can certainly do what might cause me consternation were i to believe i had to do it all my life blessed pope john xxiii and you friends does any of this resonate with you how are you coming with your new year s resolutions or your word or phrase for the year blessings and peace posted by sandra at 3 23 pm 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday october 14 2013 my first sew along make a garment a month inspired by seeing the cute green button over at the right which i ve seen on several sewing friends blogs i ve decided to join in my first sew along it s a personal challenge to make one garment each month from sarah liz who is hosting this sew along i think being in a group is motivating and is a great way to show and tell to other people who also share a love of sewing here are the rules the garment must be for you and not for someone else this challenge is also about personal sewing space and your sewing needs this is special sewing for you time choose a garment at the beginning of the month that you want to make up as your garment of the month it can be from a pattern an idea a picture from a magazine snoop shopping whatever you like post this choice for the month on your blog and tell everyone what pattern you are using or what choice you are making blog about the garment when you have finished it and in between if you want to please take a photo of yourself wearing the garment and if you feel that you would like to style the garment as well clearly label the post make a garment a month my garment for month if you want to link back to my blog you are welcome to do so wish me luck off to ponder what shall i make blessings and peace posted by sandra at 10 35 pm 12 comments email this
