The Miscellaneous Side of Things

Sometimes its not easy to come up with blog topics! Someone asked me the other day how I decide what to blog about. Some have said they don't do anything interesting, so why write about it? And I like to counter that with ... why not?? It's when we practice our observing skills that we see something worth writing about. How a sunset moves us. What we feel when we hear a song. What made us smile today. Its when we learn how to focus on the little things, that the big things don't seem so overwhelming. But the best thing to blog about is something that comes from within; write things you know (and we all know ourselves, right?) and write from the heart.

Today, I had attempted to start a blog about "the other woman" because I heard a song on the radio (gotta love country music, right? haha) and had a tongue in cheek list of PROS - no man under foot all the time; no snoring to deal with; no one who leaves the toilet set up; and CONS - no man to cuddle with when you watch TV; no comforting snoring noises in the middle of the night (ok, didn't have a con to match the toilet seat one.. hahaha). Googled the topic when I got home, and naaa, it just didn't move me to write it. Too close to home perhaps? I think so.

So, I decided this would be a "catch up" kind of blog, tie up some loose ends, etc.

On the health side of things: After a CT Scan and a visit with a urologist, I'm having a "renal cyst" thing drained on Tuesday. And taking Wednesday off to "recuperate". hehehe And nearly fell over in sticker-shock when I saw the bill for my CT Scan... ouch!

On the weather side of things: There's no way I could have imagined that 60 would feel "cold" to me, but I was wanting something with sleeves on my arms when I left for work this morning! And then I thought about it. After a long summer of temps that didn't fall below 100, our temp was 40 degrees cooler than what we were used to. So yeah, I'm entitled to feel the chill. haha

On the voting side of things: Sure am glad all those ADS are over with! They were getting tiresome. Now they need to clean up the signs along streets, in empty lots, on every street corner.

On the thankful side of things: To all of you who take the time to read this craziness I call life!!

HUGS to everyone!!!
