FW: Stay Young
2012-01-30 10:42:00
  Stay Young  We  all need to read this one over and over  -  until  it becomes part of who we  are! ; HOW  TO STAY YOUNG 1.  Try everything twice. On one woman's  tombstone she said she wanted this  epitaph: "Tried everything twice. Loved it  both times!"  2.  Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull  you down. (Keep this in mind if you are one  of those  grouches!) 3.  Keep learning:  Learn  more about the computer, crafts, gardening,  whatever...  Never  let the brain get  idle.  'An  idle mind is the devil's workshop.' And the  devil's name is  Alzheimer's!  4.  Enjoy the simple  things. ...
 
YOU THINK ENGLISH IS HARD?
2011-09-27 13:21:00
Got this from a friend: Amazing we all learned English!   I think a retired English teacher was bored. THIS IS GREAT! Read all the way to the end. This took a lot of work to put together! You think English is easy? 1) The bandage was wound around the wound. 2) The farm was used to produce produce. ...
 
I'm back...
2011-09-16 22:38:00
And this has got to be the longest hiatus ever, at least in my hiatus history.  That is, if you don't count the episode in my life a few years back when I was so stressed out (because of a bunch of mean-o's in the hubs' clan) that my hair started to fall and my heart started to do random and intermittent somersaults that could give any stunt crew of Cirque Du Soleil a run for his money. I'm back and I feel rusty. In fact, I think I have almost forgotten my password at some point.  Just kidding.  I've been busy with juggling work stuff, art stuff, house stuff, chill stuff.  So what's new with me, you ask?Here are some random things:I start art classes in October (as a student!)...Our backyard project is finally done!!!  We have a backyard!!! And a brand ne...

I hope you guys missed me because I missed you.  I have been up to a lot, as always, for the past 3 years.....what else is new....but lo and behold, something is new! I have learned how to master the art of relaxation in my daily grind.  I am serious about it that I even now write it down and schedule it like it's another task to do...and it works!That's also one of the main reasons why I have been in and out (mostly out) of blogging lately....well, at least temporarily while I am in the peak of fruitful and productive stuff.  I now make sure I allot some time to relax and stop, and so that's exactly what I do now.  And when you don't find me here, it's not exactly because I've really totally run out of free time.  It's most likely because I'm just getting me a goo...

My life is sailing toward the direction I've always dreamed of and fantasized passionately about. Yesterday, I received a package in the mail: a draft of the first book I'm going to illustrate.:-)...
 
My Third Place
2011-06-24 19:37:00
Relaxing in a place where they never get my name spelled right, listening to my "Yael Naim" station at Pandora, occasionally chatting with long lost college buddies on a very long FB thread, and people-watching til my mind goes blank. Nice feeling after a highly cerebral day at work... [My 3rd Place | 06.24.11]...

Wal-Friends
2011-06-13 23:01:00
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Meet our two best friends. and     These guys are just two of the Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products that we buy regularly.  The Walgreens Sinus Wash Neti Pot Kit is a regular on hubby's bathroom sink, yeah, the left side! I've always wanted to try it but I'm still chickening out at this time.  It looks like it works though, because the hubs can't live without it....especially since he always suffers from allergies and perpetually itchy and congested nasal passages.  The other one is my trusty pal, because I usually need digestive aid (go figure) especially when I've eaten meat (something I enjoy, but I'm not necessarily used to)....
 
Wifey's Happy Hour: Arts, Crafts and Sewing Supplies
2011-06-12 00:37:00
Well, considering that there was very little left of the Saturday I woke up to (try 2pm -- half the day was lost to sleepdom), the hubs and I were still able to accomplish some stuff....after cleaning and tidying up the house, that is.He took me to my favorite A-town! We had soup dimsum, braised egg tofu, and authentic handpulled noodles.  We also picked up some FroYo (frozen yogurt) before passing by the craft store for wifey's "Happy Hour". I had some coupons for use this weekend and I applied them to the wires I so needed for my jewelry creations. I picked up some Sewing Supplies for another project.  I'm very happy because I was able to snag good deals for all the materials I needed.  Some stuff came in from the mail too yesterday and so I was really looking fo...
