Another Way to View Christmas

I just read this message (Dec. 18, 2016, The Arcturian Group via Marilyn Raffaele) and am still tingling as I resonate with the Arcturian viewpoint.

“We Will Intuitively Know …

… how to handle situations which used to baffle us.” This is one of the Ninth Step promises in Alcoholics Anonymous.

Don’t Take Life for Granite!

Granite Granted I’ve got granite on my mind. Yesterday my husband and I walked endlessly (it seemed) in two huge granite and marble warehouses.

My husband and I met with a Realtor yesterday. We’ve been talking for years about moving, once we both retired. Finally, the time has come!

Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) Week – Feb. 14-20

I was reading my weekly update from The Good News Network and noticed that we’re midway through Random Acts of Kindness Week. Celebrating RAK Week beginning on Valentine’s Day makes sense.

Snowed In!

Our Jack Russell was watching the snow accumulation as it towered over her head. We got over 2 feet in 2 days. Finally, it stopped and yesterday the cleanup began. The day started out wonderfully.
