An Open Letter to Evangelicals
My fellow evangelicals: we are missing the boat! In our understandable enthusiasm for Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, we are missing an historic opportunity: to acknowledge and confront the reality of anti-Semitism in the church throughout history. Instead, we are simply being defensive toward concerns raised by the Jewish community: "Of course the movie is not anti-Semitic. Of course we are not anti-Semitic." If we believe in a Messiah who understands us sympathetically, we might work a little harder at understanding the concerns of the Jewish community surrounding this film. As Americans, most of us are not exactly students of history, even though our faith is historical. We forget that some early church fathers were anti-Semitic in their teaching. That the hero of the Protestant reformation, Martin Luther, wrote a tract entitled, "The Jews and their Lies." We don't identify, perhaps with the sins of the Crusaders against the Jewish people. Or the Papal States which as recently as the mid-nineteenth century held Jewish people in ghettoes, forced them to wear identifying armbands (sound familiar?) and to attend sermons by priests on a rotating basis after their Sabbath services.
Like the reality of evil itself, which we understand to be at root a profoundly spiritual presence, anti-Semitism cannot be so glibly dismissed by saying, "We're not anti-Semitic! That was then, this is now. That was them, this is us!" Anti-Semitism, like other pervasive forms of evil, if we believe our Bibles, is like an opportunistic bacteria, all around us, simply waiting for a cut, or a weakness in the immune system to take root.
I received a wake-up call recently when I read the transcripts of the Nixon tapes in which my hero, Billy Graham, was ingratiating himself to the President by going along with one of Nixon's anti-Semitic diatribes. To his credit, Billy Graham apologized. But the lesson for us all should not be missed: we too are vulnerable.
And so rather than simply rallying around this movie as if it were the "Authorized Biography of Jesus" on film, we might also take the opportunity to remind ourselves of the painful reality of anti-Semitism in the church, whose Name and shame we also bear.
The movie itself is a kind of metaphor for the gospel we love in the world we are called to love as well. Here we have a powerful story (the film) told by a storyteller (Mel Gibson) whose father is an avowed anti-Semite. The storyteller, much like the church, is having trouble disavowing the sins of the father he loves. In the same way, we are perhaps reluctant to own up to our history and disavow the sins of our fathers, which if we understand sin biblically, has a way of crouching at our door, seeking to master us.
As we see this powerful film, let us remember Jesus, who looked over Jerusalem and wept over an opportunity missed, and not miss the opportunity we have to walk in the humility of the Christ who carried our shame.

Grace Mugabe: diplomatic immunity isn't an 'out of jail' ticket
- 22/08/2017 03:13:00
- 1
- 0
The incident has sparked a furious debate about whether she should have been granted immunity, and what this means for the victim of the alleged assault.
At the time of the alleged assault Grace Mugabe was on a private, not official, visit to South Africa. She wasn't granted immunity before her visit and it's not clear on what basis she's now been granted it. Normally diplomatic immunity is granted to an individual envoy by prior agreement, or by the Minister of International Relations if it is in the interests of a country.
Since it is conceivable that Grace Mugabe might visit South Africa again in future it's worth reviewing the rules, considerations and implications of diplomatic immunity.
Rules governing diplomatic immunity
Grace Mugabe was neither a visiting head of state or government, nor a diplomat representing her country – both of which would have qualified her for diplomatic immunity.
There is no basis in customary, conventional international law or domestic law for the spouse of a head of state to claim – as a right or entitlement – some form of immunity when visiting a foreign state.
A foreign state – in this case South Africa – can, of course, grant immunity. But there's a legal framework that governs this. In her case, as the spouse of a foreign head of state, she could be granted immunity from the criminal and civil jurisdiction of the courts in South Africa if, for instance, she was on a visit as an envoy of her country to attend an international conference, or if she was accompanying her husband on an official visit. The fact that she happens to be an important person isn't a good enough criterium.
In other words, it's not status that serves as a basis for granting immunity. Rather, it's the nature of the person's visit.
South Africa's Diplomatic Immunities and Privileges Act gives the minister of International Relations and Cooperation the power to grant immunity to foreign visitors who represent their countries on official business. The act sets out how this must be done. If there's no prior agreement that already covers the visit, a notice must be published in the Government Gazette.
What's clear is that the spouses of foreign heads of states, members of foreign royal families, international celebrities and the like, can't be granted immunity on a whim. There are laws, protocols, and procedures to be followed.
Formalities aside, it's also important to keep in mind the underlying rationale of diplomatic immunity in international law and international relations. Diplomatic immunity is a principle with ancient roots and forms an integral part of international relations. At the heart of it is the idea that diplomats – or others representing their countries or international organisations – must be able to pursue their official duties free from interference by the host state.
Foreign envoys who are granted immunity therefore enjoy immunity from the criminal and civil jurisdiction of the courts of the host country.
What about justice for the victim?
Diplomatic immunity can indeed be seen as a shield against accountability for criminal conduct or civil obligations. The abuse of diplomatic immunity can therefore lead to impunity.
If a person who enjoys diplomatic immunity is accused of a crime, and their immunity isn't waived, it's normal practice for the host country to declare the person to be persona non grata. They are then expected to leave the country. But that also means there is no justice for the victim of the crime.
Nevertheless it's important to remember that the immunity initially granted to the diplomat or envoy does not attach to that person in his or her personal capacity. It would have to have been granted in one or other other official capacity.
The right to institute a prosecution for most crimes (including assault) lapses only after 20 years. There are exceptions. This right never lapses in the case of serious offences such as murder, rape, robbery with aggravated circumstances, and the atrocity crimes of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.
It's conceivable that a person who once enjoyed diplomatic immunity, but who no longer benefits from it, will face justice at some future date. This assumes that they find themselves back in the country in which the alleged crime took place.
It would be hard to justify continued immunity for someone accused of a crime given that criminal conduct, including assault, is not normally associated with official business between two sovereign states.
That's not to say that the victim can easily get justice. Diplomatic immunity conferred on visiting envoys and representatives means immunity from prosecution and civil action. This means that a victim will be frustrated in their quest for justice in the courts.
The ConversationHowever, that doesn't mean it's impossible. Taking into account the rules around the prescription of the right to institute prosecution of crime, and the underlying rationale of diplomatic immunity as a tool to facilitate official political and commercial relations between sovereign states, it can be argued that diplomatic immunity isn't the impenetrable shield of impunity imagined by some.

About Me
- Angie
- I started this blog to keep track of my kitchen creations. I love cooking and eating. In 2008 I was diagnosed with RA. Food started becoming a huge problem. I needed to find a better way to eat the flavors I love. All the recipes I create are driven by my desire to eat good food that won't create extra pain and inflammation in my internal ecosystem. While the recipes are wholesome, the language is not. I swear. I use the word 'fuck'. A lot! I make no apologies for that. It's just a fair warning. I'm raw and real. Happy cooking! Even happier eating! Cheers! Angie

I've been out all morning.Cleaning the property.Getting ready for another summer of mowing. No more goats,so I've taken down the fence and cleaned and raked a lot of wood chips and brush and piled it up for burning later this spring. I've picked up rocks where Pop had disced the backyard to sow more grass today.The winter months leaves behind a lot to be cleaned when the weather starts getting nice enough to get out and enjoy it. It is windy, but fairly warm out today. Just right for cleaning.I know you have a big day planned with the kids and all your sewing, so I hope you have a good day.Later!ReplyDelete
It sounds like the brithday party was a lot of fun.ReplyDelete
I haven't finished a thing I started today. It has rained the past three days and the yard is so wet you sink down when you walk on the grass. I started a lap blanket and cut out all the strips but didn't sew any today. Maybe tomorrow.
Oh I remember that song too.ReplyDelete

If you have a laptop, you can see a list of available wireless networks, and then connect to one of those networks, no matter where you are. The wireless networks appear only if your computer has a wireless network adapter and driver installed and the adapter is enabled.
To view and connect to available wireless networks
Open Connect to a Network by clicking the network icon ( or ) in the notification area.
In the list of available wireless networks, click a network, and then click Connect.
Some networks require a network security key or passphrase. To connect to one of those networks, ask your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for the security key or passphrase.
Whenever possible, you should connect to security-enabled wireless networks. If you do connect to a network that's not secure, be aware that someone with the right tools can see everything that you do, including the websites you visit, the documents you work on, and the user names and passwords that you use

Client Success Manager
The Client Success Manager will be responsible for engaging directly with clients to deduce and resolve issues as well as overall client satisfaction/support. While this position is technical in nature and will require a level of software knowledge and general IT expertise, it is essential that this team member be a fanatic about customer service.
About us
Pathagility is a web-based lab management software company that appeals to up and coming anatomic, clinical, molecular, and genetic labs eager to get started or that need customization added to their legacy system(s). Our system design/architecture is flexible enough to feel like a custom solution, but rigid enough for labs to get started entering and signing out cases today. We provide to our customers:
- Web-based LIS/LIMS systems
- Custom reporting
- Interfacing to EMR, billing systems, instruments
- Web-based reporting
What we are looking for
- Hungry, hard working team member
- Excited about being part of a start-up/early growth company
- Mindset to not only immediately resolve client issue but deliver long term solutions
- Ability to engage with clients directly and deliver results individually on a high percentage of customer service opportunities
- Work in harmony with Senior Technologists and entire team

- Experience with a LAMP Stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Python/Perl, etc.)
- Experience with other software platforms and software delivery methodologies
- General IT support aptitude
- Great communication skills
How does this sound to you?
Much will be expected of this team member, but the upside of helping make a startup/early growth company successful is huge. Flexibility will be a key attribute while learning to work with the established team. This position must be available during normal business hours to field/work customer support inquiries and there will be times of extended work hours when driving to a timeline commitment.
Pathagility is a small team of individuals who work well with each other. We are not built to manage people closely. We are built so that everyone plays their role and know how to manage their work/life balance. Every person at Pathagility has sacrificed for a chance to be a part of a team where they can share in our success. Once you have the job, your performance will be evaluated on:

In our last blog, we looked back through the history of telecommunications specifically to the advent of SS7 technology in 1975 and how it accelerated the pace of innovation from decades to weeks/days. In this blog we'll again look back a bit but only a week or so to the major news coming out of Mobile World Congress (MWC), the annual tradeshow of mobile operators, technology vendors, technophiles, and pundits.
In fact, we were honored to be a part of the largest gathering in the history of this event, surpassing 100,000 attendees for the first time. That's a far cry from the very first event in Rome in 1990 (when it was called GSM World Congress) that attracted a mere few hundred visitors. MWC organizers expect an even bigger attendance next year so it's probably not too soon to look into lodgings already. Air BnB might be a good option, though you're likely to face stiff competition for space.
Even amidst the throngs, we were pleased as punch that our big news at MWC stood out and drew more than its fair share of attention. That's understandable whenever you have 23 operators and vendors agreeing to collaborate on anything that is 100 percent user-need driven based on actual use cases. Here's actually how I phrased it to FierceTelecom's Sean Buckley:
RIFT.io's mission is to be able to make it easy to deploy a network service as it is to deploy any other cloud service and accelerate the adoption of SDN and NFV. It's completely model-driven and adheres to everything we have contributed back to OSM so it's OSM compliant management and orchestration.
But even we have to admit that the big news at MWC this year was the various progress reports on 5G (fifth generation) mobile technology that promises to boost network capacity by more than 10,000 compared to 4G/LTE. The reports are more than promising. AT&T announced that it will test commercial-grade 5G technology this summer. Verizon is claiming that it'll actually be in deployment for its 5G networks by 2017, even though the company admits that there are a lot of kinks to work out. In general, the industry is expecting general availability of 5G technology and devices to be in the 2020 timeframe.
There are a number of truly advanced "killer apps" already in design for 5G networks. Big Data analytics and Internet of Things (IoT) over 5G are almost too cliché to even mention. If you ask Facebook head honcho, VR will rule the day to take advantage of 5G's 50X performance boost compared to LTE.
For us though, the really exciting 5G news out of MWC was the consensus among operators and vendors alike that NFV and SDN will play a foundational role in this next-gen network. Here's why:
Any time that CSPs transition to newer generations of mobile networking, there is always the need to introduce new technologies, business models, and services designed to accommodate the various upgrades. In most cases, it is necessary to upgrade or change their infrastructure.
That was certainly the case with 4G/LTE as the industry evolved from TDM networks to all-IP versions, aka and, appropriately enough, Next-Generation Networks. As significant as this evolution was, it was still largely a hardware-to-hardware transition. The 5G evolution is revolutionary in that we're moving to a software-defined, cloud-enabled infrastructure where management and orchestration will play an instrumental role.
In fact, the standards bodies are already looking at specific NFV MANO requirements as part of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) as it heads into the 5G wireless era. You can get an idea of how this might play out in the commercial world in mobile edge computing projects we're working on with Brocade that was announced ahead of MWC.
We are excited about the next steps for us and the mobile world in general. We'll make sure to share our progress on these pages as well as through our media outlets as events warrant. And you won't even have to wait till next February in Barcelona for the news.

To be too large for worry,
too noble for anger,
too strong for fear,
and too happy to permit the presence of trouble
Christian D. Larson
I say this abit differently: I try to be bigger than the situation.
Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I don't.
Yesterday I revived a petty bitch I had promised myself and someone I love I would not bring up again. I did it because this little unfounded insecure part of me keeps squawking and I failed to let it calm down before I took to the computer keys and registered my 100th complaint. All is well, afterall, but I caused the two of us wasted breaths and energy that could have been spent in any number of interesting and fun endeavors.
And yet, remarkably, all this left me with reassurance that I am loved. This came in the form of no backing down and not letting me defend that I had a valid gripe, but ,despite that, a willingness to change--to protect me --if it really came to that. And of course it didn't. It doesn't.
The next time this petty bitch surfaces--and it will because I don't yet understand why it surfaces in the first place--I am going to sit on my hands and chant zip/lip lectures to myself. I am going to write myself a letter, eat chocolate, pace to and fro, buy a book, take a hot bath, get a manicure, catch a movie--something, anything that creates enough of a pause that I calm down, remember this is not about me, and let those loving arms stay sufficiently unencumbered to embrace me just because.
I am going to yet again try to be bigger than the situation.
With practice, my batting average is sure to improve, and for me, that's a gift to myself and to everyone around me.

Today (17th November), the US vegan food blogger and author Kathy Patalsky posted an item on her lunchboxbunch web-site titled 'Vegan Thanksgiving recipes. 2012', which includes links to 85 of her own fab. US vegan recipes. (Thanksgiving in the US is a big festive holiday, a rough equivalent to Christmas in the UK.)
The recipes include Ginger Juice Shooters (pre-meal palate cleanser); 5 Holiday Smoothies; Mint Creme Soy Cocoa (after-meal); Homemade Cranberry Sauce (smooth or whole berry); 3 Vegan Stuffing Recipes + Vegan Stuffing 101; Sweet Potato Apple Souffle Cups; Jalapeno "Cheddar" Biscuits; Cashew Cheese Appetizer; Fancy Fruit Tapas (use seasonal fruit!); King Oyster Mushroom "Scallops"; Holiday Citrus-Apple-Walnut Fruit Salad; Cranberry Balsamic Brussel Sprouts; Roasted Beet Salad; Holiday Citrus Rice-Stuffed Squash; BBQ Hasselback Tofu; Homemade Smoked Maple Seitan; Simple Sticky Blackened Tempeh Logs; Roasted Veggie Stew; Mocha Layer Cake; Peanut Butter Cup Caramel Latte or Mocha; and Coffee Cake Pecan Cinnamon Rolls.
'… Here is my annual recipe guide to help you host a healthy, happy, Vegan Thanksgiving feast!
A very vegan holiday. I remember my very first vegan Thanksgiving quite well. My homemade cranberry sauce was chilling in the fridge, my sweet potatoes were baking and caramelizing in the oven. I pulled my heavy, ice-covered Tofurky box out of the freezer and started reading the instructions, yanking out the box components. Some vegan "wishbones" and vegan gravy and that round firm Tofurky. I must say, I do love the Tofurky. But I haven't made one in a few years. I remember it baking up a tad dry. I slathered it in gravy and Dijon mustard sauce. My meal was pretty good, but in the end I just felt so satisfied to have celebrated an entire meal, cruelty free. I had such a light and happy heart. A vegan meal can be delicious, easy, fun and life-changing. If you have never done "vegan Thanksgiving" before, I high recommend you give it a try!
The categorized lists ahead include my personal favorite dishes featured here on my blog. Both traditional favorites (stuffing, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie galore) and a few less than traditional ideas as well.. …
Ahead you will find these recipe categories..
* beverages
* appetizers
* salads

P ♥ P Family Housewarming • The menu
Peter and I spent a big amount of time preparing the food for our family housewarming: it was fun to taste all the recipes that we wanted to make for the big day. We enjoyed cooking together and adding the spices as we did. It was an automnal menu with lots of vegetables & fruits of the season.
We cooked the whole day on Friday and the whole morning on Saturday. I was pretty stressed then because I was supposed to be done with the soup but didn't have time since my family arrived earlier than we expected. Also if you've made pumpkin soup before, you'd know how much work it is to cut the flesh into pieces. I was lucky to have Peter and my lil' sister help all they could (I'm terrible when it comes to the kitchen sharing).
Here's the menu (in French):
Unfortunately I don't have great pictures of the food once it was prepared and done. I have blurry instax... I barely touched my camera during the whole day. I'm a bit disappointed but sometimes, you just have to enjoy the day and let others take the pictures. But the food memories will always titillate your palate, right?

HIKARI, Dec 8: When Japan's worst typhoon season in recent times ripped up crops and sent vegetable prices soaring this summer, Yugo Nomura's lettuce rolled safely along a conveyor belt. Instead of relying on the whims of nature, his green produce grows under red lights more commonly used in cell phones. In what is considered a world-first technology, beds of leaf lettuce are ripening safely indoors at a factory in Hikari, 50kms east of Tokyo, under red light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that help illuminate mobile phones. The invention is billed as a way to develop purely organic vegetables with less labor and a sure supply even in the worst weather. The process, developed and licensed by Cosmo Plant Co. Ltd. which set up its first factory in 1999, expands on indoor farming methods that use fluorescent lights. Red LEDs require less power, cutting by 60 percent the electricity bill from fluorescent lights, said Cosmo Plant president Hisakazu Uchiyama. "The annual electricity bill fell by about 60 million yen (577,000 dollars)," Uchiyama said. While start-up and electricity costs mean the farming method is still more expensive than the age-old reliance on the sun, the developers said the controlled environment allowed them to avoid chemicals and bad weather. Expressions of interest in the technology have come from land-short places such as Singapore. -AFP

IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I'VE DONE COMEDY one of my first comic bits was 0ne hour after the First Gulf War.Just me and Bill Hicks done bits about the First Gulf War.And,when I had my public access show in New Orleans me and Howard Stern was doing O.J. Simpson jokes.There's a price to pay when you're ahead of the curve,I was the only guy in New Orleans doing a white rapper charecter back in 1990 and I caught a lot of shit for it.Now,all these things are done to death.Shit O.J. is digging his own hole.And,I've seen a lot of people rip off my shit and fucked it up.Damn,that's why I'm writing plus I used to have a bad drinking problem.I drunk all my money and probadly got on stage shit like,"BLahburlghehblah ;blaqlalfkfr,mutha-fuckablahblahbkJFJDFHGJNBNJGFFJEJ." I REMEMBER ONE TIME being in Biloxi before the casinos and coming up to the mic and I can't remember a fucking word that came out my mouth. People was laughing and I can't remember a fucking thing.Shit toward the end of my drinking days I was blacking out and I remember I was goofing around and accidently kicked a guy in the chest.This will be the first time I've done comedy since DECEMBER 10, 2003 WHEN I opened for EYEHATEGOD with my bit about Dimebag Darrell's Death. Two days after it happen. I've heard a rumor about Phil Anselmo wanting to kick my ass and I wish he did.That would have been some funny shit cause I didn't say a bad thing about Dimebag.I 've said that I was really bummed out somebody killing Dimebag cause he was a genius and Good Charlotte and Avril Lavinge still walk the fucking earth !!! SO, phil if you still want a piece of me and we can do a G.G. Allin tribute style of comedy and beat the living shit out of each other. I'm not trying to kiss your ass when I say have a bunch of your albums but I stay true to my comedy bits.

Emily VanCamp: ISTj [LSI-Ti? (maybe Normalizing subtype)] / Beta ST; or ISFj (ESI) / Gamma SF
Someone typed her as an Ni-PoLR (ESFj or ESTj) on this site:
Sensate Rational seems the most likely; at the moment I can't completely rule out other possibilities [e.g. Si-dominant (SEI-Si?) or SLI; or LII-Ti].
[I think her boyfriend, Josh Bowman, might be ENTj (LIE) or ENFj (EIE).]
She (Emily VanCamp) portrays the protagonist on the TV show Revenge.
Regarding Revenge characters, I think "Emily Thorne"/Amanda Clarke is LSI-Ti?, Nolan Ross is EIE-Ni?, Conrad Grayson might be EIE; Daniel Grayson might be LIE, EIE, or SEE; and Victoria might be ESI, EIE?, or SEE-Fi??... Anyway, Revenge is my favorite current [Beta] TV show at the moment.

Craft in America: A journey to the origins, artists and techniques of American Craft is a three-part documentary that airs tonight on PBS. Craft in America, Inc., a non-profit orginzation dedicated to exploring craft in the United States, will also have a traveling exhibit and book release in 2007.
From their website:
Beginning [tonight], millions of Americans will discover the importance that craftsmanship has played in the founding and future of our country with the premiere of CRAFT IN AMERICA: Memory, Landscape, Community, a three-part high-definition series on PBS.
Part I - Memory
This 60 minute documentary, the first in the CRAFT IN AMERICA series, takes a personal tour through craft's history in America beginning with the pioneers of the field. This episode juxtaposes the intimate stories of some of our country's most prominent craft artists against the larger historical context of craft itself.
Part II - Landscape
The second episode focuses on the relationship between the artists and their physical environment. Craft artists depend on their natural environment for both materials and inspiration. This hour will look at the processes through which natural materials become finished works of craft, and what deeper messages may be contained therein.
Part III - Community
Throughout time, craft work has been a community activity. This hour will focus on the spiritual connection artists have to their communities through craft making. Some express the ideas, beliefs and desires of their community through their craft objects. Some pay homage to the community by continuing craft traditions that are in danger of being lost. Others actually perform their craft as a community project. The personal stories of gifted artists and passionate newcomers alike reveal the deeply held belief that craft is about more than just the making of an object – it is also about a way of life, a reason for being.
First-run Airdates:
Memory May 30, 2007; 8p
Landscape May 30, 2007; 9p
Community May 30, 2007; 10p

Student or Learner
Does it mean there is no need to worry or something is not a big deal for instance? Thanks.
In AusE, we use 'm' for million, 'bn' for billion: $25m, $25bn. Also 25k is used by some newspapers for 25,000.
Is that different elsewhere?
It's true that M (Mega) also means a million in SI units, as opposed to m (milli), but those terms take an affix, eg. MB (Megabyte), mm (millimeter), etc.
'AusE' means Australian English.
If you click on Raymott's Member Info you'll see that he is a native and resident of Australia.

Not at all.
Harper's ears were hurting.
HG was dreaming, bad dreams.
That has been happening a lot lately.
One night, she was crying because she did not get any salad.
In her sleep, she did not get any salad.
Big time tears then she needs snuggles.
We got a lot accomplished today.
Our house is once again full of stuff that we are going through out in the garage.
My sister moved into the condo yesterday and starts Culinary School soon.
We are super excited she is closer than Texarkana.
Uncle Ryan also just changed his flight into DFW tomorrow.
HG is going to squeal with seeing him.
He is out in Cali, moving to Boston soon so we love on him when we can.
A few random pictures over the last week....... In the middle of all the moving, I decided I needed to recover a glider.
You know, the important stuff right?
ha. I am only half way finished.
This stuff is terrible.
Smells like breast fed babies poop.
I've resorted to smoothies with tons of fruit.
Sometimes I will have one for breakfast.
Sometimes I will have one for extra calories in the afternoon.
Extra calories, nuts huh?
Gotta keep my milk supply up for my girl.
You must have calories for your milk to continue.
These girls love our bed.
Lots of tea parties.
This one will be super cute.
Pink butterflies and pearls.
Southern little girls love both.
Oh, it is a mobile.
Silly HG hiding in th little stuffed animal toy chest.
It is amazing how clean it will come but with two kids climbing on me, I don't get too far.
Or is it called a bouncer?
Happy St Patrick's Day!
It is so shiny and clean.
Thanks Lynn!
You give her chips and salsa, I promise she will be extra sweet.
Well, this was actually at Mockingbird and 75.
Harper was already out.
She sleeps peeping out.
We've got a busy week.
I thought it was going to be a slow week.
Then Harper got another double ear so that equals many trips to the doctor at different locations.
It is Teacher Appreciation week.
Our flowers are ready for in the morning.
We are seeing a friend and taking her flowers early in the morning.
Chris is home all week though to help get things done.

Litchi chinensis (Sapindaceae) is a tree that originates from China and is cultivated for its sweet fruits all over the world in warm climates. Unusual fatty acids such as cyclopropanoic fatty acids have been identified in the seeds of Litchi. Because of their potential value for industry (as inks, cosmetics, detergents, lubricants, etc.), the variability in the relative levels of unusual fatty acids in the seeds of 28 different Litchi varieties was analysed at two locations (on Ræunion Island in the Indian Ocean) and on two different harvest dates. Except for one variety, all the seeds contained cis-9, 10-methylene-octadecanoic acid (C19CA) at a relative level of 35–48%. The only variety that contained no or only traces of C19CA was Groff, seeds of which were significantly much smaller than those from all other varieties.

Video posted online of the aftermath of Monday's attack showed a scene of chaos as people tried to help the injured.
"We treat this as a terrorist attack", she said.
"We stopped all forms of attack and abuse towards him that were coming from every angle". He was taken to a hospital as a precaution, where he'll receive a mental health assessment, according to the statement. She said her thoughts were with the injured, their loved ones and emergency officials who responded to the incident.
The imam of a Muslim center in London has been praised for his "bravery and courage" in stopping an angry crowd turning on the driver involved in a van attack.
The use of a vehicle to mow down pedestrians drew horrifying parallels with this month's London Bridge attack, when three men drove a van into pedestrians before embarking on a stabbing spree, and with another auto and knife rampage near parliament in March.
"My prayers are with the victims and their families".
The 48-year-old suspect mowed down pedestrians outside a mosque on Seven Sisters Road in Finsbury Park. After those attacks, the mosque was shut down and reorganized and has not been associated with radical views for more than a decade. The mosque, which today operates largely as a community center, rose to worldwide notoriety in the early 2000s, due to its links with Egyptian-born radical cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri.
Muhammed Kozba, the mosque's imam, said worshipers who were performing the prayer were "intentionally" targeted. Among those known to have worshiped at the mosque during Abu-Hamza's time there are convicted shoe bomber Richard Reid and Zacarias Moussaoui, the so-called 20th hijacker of September 11.
Jonah Hill's dramatic weight loss
It's uncertain whether he's losing the weight for a movie, which he has done in the past, or for personal reasons . Hill looked noticeably fit in a navy tank top that showed off his toned arms.
On most Fridays, the faithful stream towards several mosques in the neighborhood, home to a large Muslim community of mostly North and West African descent. Around 10% of the borough's population is Muslim.
In an interview with Sky News, Mahmoud said had just finished evening prayers when a man ran in to and said that something had happened outside.
"My message to the Government is, the plans you have to change the police funding formula so London loses more money: don't do it".
Some witnesses believe there was more than one person involved in the attack, but a statement from the police said there were no other suspects. "They were helping on the pavement and trying to help them to get to the scene".
- March 22, 2017: A man drives his rented SUV into pedestrians at London's Westminster Bridge, killing four people, then stabs a police officer to death before officers shoot and kill him.
A man identified only as Mohammed who was holding the suspect down told Britain's Guardian newspaper, "The imam came from the mosque and he said, 'Listen we are fasting, this is Ramadan, we are not supposed to do these kinds of things so please step back'". But Ahmed says she won't let Islamophobic incident like these change who she is.
He added: "I said, 'tell me why did you try driving to kill innocent people?'"

Yes I did say that MUSIC MONDAY would be a monthly thing but it turned out differently because:
- I had no time to even breathe let alone discover new music or listen to any of my favourite songs at that moment.
- I was a little lazy.
- I got nominated for a bunch of tags (A couple of them are still left) and then I had other ideas for posts so MUSIC MONDAY never made the cut.
For this episode of MUSIC MONDAY, I decided to I wouldn't say review but just give a general opinion on the songs that came out in the month of April and however days have passed in May. Some great artists are releasing music this year and I am beyond happy because I adore those people so much. Talking about artists, I would love to know some of your favourite artists or anyone particular that you've been obsessing over who isn't really famous, someone you don't listen to on the radio quite frequently. Also for music recommendations, you can check the bottom of my blog for songs that I recommend weekly.
So without further ado, let's get into this!
- Life Of The Party by All Time Low
All Time Low have given their music a different sound this time and in my opinion, this song just tends to have a little more of guitar than the other two they have also recently released. Is there really any All Time Low song without some great lyrics? NO. This song makes so much sense. It's about losing yourself in a swarm of people and not knowing who you are anymore. I absolutely love this song.
- Sign Of The Times by Harry Styles
I honestly didn't expect Harry to come back with this kind of a sound. I thought it'd be pop-y and just slightly different from One Direction but it exceeded all my expectations. It's such a cool song with, again, great lyrics and I'm a sucker for a song with great and meaningful lyrics.
- Young and Menace by Fall Out Boy
Now don't get me wrong Fall Out Boy is one of the bands that I've been listening to for ages now but this song didn't appeal to me at all. It felt more of like an EDM song rather than a rock song and I love Fall Out Boy because of all the rock stuff that combines to make one of their songs. I haven't found myself going back to it. It was kind of disappointing. (Please don't kill me. This is just my opinion and I hope you respect it.)
- I Can't Breathe by Bea Miller
I love her voice. It is raw and just wonderful. This song is such a beautiful song and I absolutely adore it's lyrics.
- Eyes Closed by Halsey
Again this song is different from Badlands and I really do like it. Please appreciate my queen. I love her.
- Last Young Renegade by All Time Low
Catchy! It is such a catchy song and the whole idea behind the album that will be released in June (SQUEEEE) is great. I always and forever will love All Time Low for putting so much into their music.
- Taxi by The Maine
So The Maine released their album in April (ahhh!) and I couldn't pick a favourite song so this is this for now. I love the way it sounds and it's catchy! (there isn't an original version of this song on YouTube so here's the link to a fan-made video)
- Something Just Like This by The Chainsmokers & Coldplay
I don't really know when this song was released and I'm too lazy to ask Google about it so might as well include it. Honestly speaking, I don't like The Chainsmokers that much. They're quite overrated and me and overrated things mostly don't go together but I have to say this song was pretty great and for a nerd like me, the lyrics were fabulous (excuse me if I talk about lyrics too much please). I can't wait for the new Coldplay EP!
- Hard Times by Paramore
Paramore is back people! (happy times)
Love love love this song. Kindly appreciate this song with it's rainbow aesthetic.
- Middle Of The Night by The Vamps
It was kind of on the electronic side I would say but I really liked this song. Also I love their concept of releasing their upcoming album. So excited for it!
So this is it for now. There are a lot of songs that I didn't talk about here because the post was already long enough and I have this weird thing where I want everything to be a multiple of 5 (eg. 10) or just 7 so I decided to just end it here (lol sorry I'm weird). I hope you go and listen to a few of these songs. Make sure to leave in the comments which one you liked the best! Hope you have a great day/night. Until next time….

I'd like to share a card with you which I have made for the current challenge going on over at A Blog Named Hero, where this time round, the challenge is to make a 'One Layer Card'.
And here's my offering...
I used Hero Arts Graphic Leaves background stamp to make my card.
I started by masking off the whole of the back of my card blank so as not to get it covered in ink, and also masked an inch strip along the front of my card to leave a space for my sentiment. I then stamped out my Graphic leaves background in Pine Needles Distress Ink, and clear heat embossed. Once cool, I coloured all my different leaves using different shades of green Distress (Evergreen Bough, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Cracked Pistachio, Shabby Shutters), using the inks as watercolour, and left to dry. Once dry, i stamped out a thin strip at the top and bottom of my masked area, in Versamark ink, and heat embossed in copper. I then took my sentiment from Hero Art's Essential Messages, and again, heat embossed in copper. The copper looked so pretty against the green, and because I was making a 'one layer card' I knew I wouldn't be embellishing - so decided to add a little extra detail - I took a Perfect Medium bullet nib pen, and traced around a few of my background leaves, and also heat embossed them in copper.
And there you have it.
I really hope you like it and would love to read your comments, so please feel free to leave one :)
See you next time.

Honestly, I like all of the types in Delta a lot... If I was to pick a unifying characteristic--hmm, i guess that 'genuine' would be the word. Sometimes it's covert, but there's a sincerity that's great and unique to delta.
I'm interested to hear if anyone has any Delta stereotypes..? I mean, I know the other quadra's stereotypes, but Delta is sometimes described as 'kinda like alpha, but a little more serious.' lol
Seriously though, I don't take pride in the quadra itself.. If I'm going to have pride, it's pride in individuals rather than anything else. Saying that though, in better times I sometimes feel proud to be ILI.. I wouldn't want to be any other type, but then again when you see the world primarily through your ego block, why would you? Excluding things like low self-esteem and idolising other types etc.. bah I dunno. Ignore me.

Joy and pain at Crusaders game
Last updated 12:30 05/03/2011
The pain of the Christchurch earthquake was dampened a little in Nelson last night as a red and black crowd urged the Crusaders to victory at Trafalgar Park.
Those in the sellout crowd of 11,000 had different reasons for coming.
Many were Nelsonians like David Johnson, "who just had to come" to show solidarity with Christchurch, and was grateful for the opportunity to watch a Crusaders game here.
Others had escaped the quake, and were watching their home team play at a "home" hundreds of kilometres away from AMI Stadium.
Teachers Barbara Martindale and Mary Chetty fled the ruined city last week for the quiet of Nelson.
"I think it was the deaths; that had a really big impact this time," Ms Chetty said.
As "huge" Crusaders fans, the enormity of what had happened to their city meant the excitement of being at the game was bittersweet. Ms Martindale said she "felt really guilty" for being at the game. She knew four people who had died in the February 22 quake, "and maybe more when the names come out".
While she felt guilty, she also felt "incredibly proud to be a Cantabrian".
Brother and sister Bridget and Chris Nolan, aged 11 and 13, were staying in Nelson.
Chris said their home had been damaged in the September quake, and was now condemned following the February disaster.
He said Crusaders players Sean Maitland, Sam Whitelock and Zac Guildford were neighbours who had helped to shovel liquefied sand and muck out of the driveway of the house they had been renting since September.
Nelson man Geoff Hoffman shifted to Christchurch two weeks before the quake struck. He said the premises of the Moorhouse Ave kitchen company he managed were damaged, but his house was fine and he planned to return to the Garden City.
Mr Hoffman said he was supposed to have watched last night's game from the First 15 Lounge at AMI Stadium. Instead, he was watching it from the front row of the embankment at Trafalgar Park.
Three Sydney men sporting blue amongst the sea of red and black were some of the few Waratahs fans in the crowd.
Simon Holey, his dad Phil and friend Alex Deeley bought tickets to the match in Christchurch before last week's earthquake damaged AMI Stadium. When the game was shifted to Nelson, they decided to come anyway.
"We wanted to come to support our team, but also to support the economy and the earthquake victims."
The Crusaders wore red and white – the colours of the West Coast union.
The team had arranged to play their first home game in those colours to commemorate the 29 people who lost their lives in the Pike River mining disaster.
An impeccably observed minute's silence at the beginning of the game, to remember the Pike River victims and the more than 163 people who lost their lives in the Christchurch quake, was chilling.
The reason for the game being played in Nelson was lost on no one old enough to comprehend what had happened in Christchurch.
"We are here because of a tragedy," someone in the crowd said. "And that's kind of weird."
Sales of red and black "Kia Kaha Christchurch" T-shirts raised $20,000, and buckets for the Red Cross appeal must have collected thousands more.
Pride in Canterbury swelled as the Crusaders horsemen thundered around the park.
With images of a devastated Christchurch fresh in their minds, the noisy crowd wanted one thing: a Crusaders victory. And they were not disappointed.
The 33-18 win was a result that Christchurch, the red and black crowd in Nelson, and New Zealand wanted and desperately needed.
The fans at last night's game were well behaved, police said.
Nelson Bays Area Commander Inspector Brian McGurk said two people were ejected from Trafalgar Park for drunkenness. One was later arrested as he tried to get back into the ground.
Mr McGurk said it was a busy night for police.
Three people were arrested for intoxication, and three people were arrested and charged with disorderly behaviour. One person was charged with assaulting police.

Here we are at 11 months….30 days away from turning the big O-N-E!
*Little Man is EVERYWHERE, let me tell you. He has really stepped up his game this month! Haha
He took his first steps when he was 10 months and 4 days (June 11) and then really was not interested in walking AT ALL for the next 2.5 weeks. About 1 week ago, he started just randomly taking steps here and there, and he amazes me! He will just up and walk like 10 steps across the room and then sit down. I know any day now he will wake up and just decide he will walk! I better have my running shoes ready! I have to admit, he took longer than I originally thought---I figured I would have a walker before he was 10 months old, so I am pleasantly surprised.
*Holt learned how to clap this month! It is the CUTEST thing! He just grins and laughs. So fun!
*He constantly babbles. No new words, but all day long, it's a constant stream of "baba", "gaga", "dada", "nana", "mama", etc. I love it! I can't wait for him to start having "conversations" with anything and everything and everybody.
*All the Lowery crew got together this month to celebrate summer birthdays. We had all 9 grandkids together and it was so fun! Daniel's Grandmother Ruth got a picture with all of them and it was priceless:
|all the lowery kids with grandmother ruth
*We celebrated Father's Day---the 1st one with Holt out of the womb. Daniel is such a great father---as soon as he gets home, he greets me and immediately grabs Holt to play. And Holt ADORES his daddy! He has a special laugh only for him and his little face just lights up as soon as he sees him. It makes my heart go all gooey to watch them together. I can't wait to see how their relationship develops as Holt grows up.
|happy father's day!
|this boy loves his daddy!
*Our church had VBS this month and it was Holt's first time to go. I was a little weary because I knew he would only get 1 nap a day for an entire week, but he ended up doing better than I expected. I worked with the 4th grade and it was a WONDERFUL week telling these kids about Jesus! Our children's pastor did a phenomenal job---we averaged over 400 kids for the week, and it was so fun to see them show up everyday eager to learn and sing all the songs.
*Holt swam in a big pool for the first time this month and to say he loved it is an understatement! The entire time he was in the water, he kicked, splashed, laughed, grinned---he did everything but go underwater! He was NOT happy to get out either ;) That makes me SO excited for our Florida vacation coming up.
|water baby
*We had my family's annual reunion this month and it was in Fort Smith (SO nice not to have to travel anywhere). We went to Creekmore Park and rode the train for the first time, we had wonderful food, and had a great time catching up with everyone. One of my cousins has a baby 2 months older than Holt and they had a blast playing together too! Holt was a champ that weekend---it was hit or miss on naps and he typically was up about 2 hours past normal bedtime, but he did well. It was hard for this mama--I had to let go of my needing to be in control, especially where his routine and schedule is concerned. Having Daniel and my parents and my sister and her husband and everyone else to help was key! I knew Holt was in good hands and that they could help distract him and feed him and keep him in a good mood.
|riding the train at creekmore park
|celebrating Poppa's birthday
*Holt came down with a cold at the end or reunion and over the next week, his cough started sounding congested. I took him into the doctor because I wanted to be sure he wasn't getting an ear infection or fluid in his lungs and he checked out perfect! No fluid anywhere (yay!) so it just has to run it's course. Hopefully he will be over it before we leave for our trip.
*We celebrated his first 4th of July this month too! He had to go to bed before the fireworks, but we grilled out, swam in the pool, saw family and some of our best friends, and had a great time! Bonus on him sleeping through all the fireworks going off on our street for 2 hours!
|My heart overflows
|sweet boy
|we love cousin Katie Jo!
Weight: 20 lbs. 10 oz. (50th percentile)
Height: 29 ¼ inches (50th percentile)
Our little man has completely averaged out! I knew he had hit a growth spurt earlier this month, and the scale showed it too! He grew an entire inch and probably put on 2 pounds or more!
Milestones: *taking steps *clapping *1st VBS *1st swim in a big pool *1st July 4th celebration
Sleep: This kid just about killed me this month. He went to bed at 6:30pm, but he seriously woke up between 5:30-6:00AM EVERY MORNING for almost the entire month. The past 2 days, he actually slept in til 7:30am and I'm hoping we are getting back to THAT sleep routine. He still takes 2 naps a day for around 1.5-2 hours each.
Feeding: This child can put some food away! He hit a growth spurt earlier this month and I literally felt like he at all day long. I could not keep him full! But he eventually got back to his normal eating habits. Now that he can eat dairy, he pretty much can eat anything---it is SO nice! I am also in the process of weaning him onto whole milk. Bye formula! I go into much more detail in my last Baby-Led Feeding post. We are down to two sippy cups now---6-8 oz in the morning and 6-8 oz before bed. He drinks water throughout the day.

Taking Stock - Accountants hot up Mayoral race wars.
Accountancy has moved centre stage in the London mayoral race. First, Accountancy Age revealed London Underground's accounts have been reported to the Financial Reporting Review Board for allegedly massively overstating its assets. A bit of a blow given the punch-ups that will follow in the mayoral contest over the tube network. But then it turned out that the favourite to become the capital's first mayor, Red Ken Livingstone, had not been as detailed as he might have been when declaring his financial arrangements to the House of Commons. In fact it turns out the ardent socialist fulfilled speaking engagements with Ernst & Young and PricewaterhouseCoopers. Then, as the race to lead London hots up, Alistair Campbell admits the tax bill under Labour has risen. Shocker! You have to wonder whether Blair and his mates really want Dobbo to win.

I was born in 1961 in northwestern England and was educated at the High School Preston. As a boy I was very interested in drawing and won awards for my art. Being a great ornithologist, I had my own bird sanctuary, taking in children and deviates and care back to health, which were later released back into the wild. This early commitment to wildlife brought me to be both environmentally conscious, and a great conservationist.
My passion for art and nature led me to study Natural History Illustration at Blackpool college. It was there that the Rotary Club of Great Britain awarded the prize for me 'Student of the Year'. This award is for work of exceptional quality and detail. I was also the first student to get a distinction for my job, which was a great honor.
After leaving the university adopted painting as a career full time and was, and still am, in the constant search for reference for my subjects. This has meant that I have traveled to places far from the Jungles of Borneo and Central America, in the spectacular mountains of Virunga, in Rwanda, as well as the plains of Africa and Asia. For me come face to face with nature is what makes me tick.
He had five sell out exhibitions in total, and has achieved record prices, both Sotheby's and Christies. He also won 'Best in Show' award at the Society Exhibition of Wildlife Art in 1999.
Possibly one of the most important things for any artist is the inspiration. I have been fortunate enough to travel extensively in the search for my reference, and that can not fail to be inspired when face to face with a mountain gorilla, or about tigers in the wild. It is so important, as an artist, to get first-hand reference, not only for the animals and birds that appear in my paintings, but also the native vegetation, landscapes, rocks and trees, and so is my lucky enough to have a kind of photographic memory where I see a scene that touches me, and then I can visualize in detail much later. I partner with field studies, and photographic reference to recreate the idea was formulated in the field, and bring it to life, in my study. As a result I never short of ideas and as soon as you have finished a painting, I was itching continue with the next new project has been on my mind in recent days or weeks.
The composition is the key to a great painting, as is the right balance of color, but I think the most important element for me is the light. A picture without light is flat and lifeless. Put in a strong light source, and has a very different history, the shadows play a key role in describing the shape of the object, which comes to life in a painting.

They're Back With A Vengance
Yesterday was easy, eh? No, they were just saving all of their problems for today. And there is one faculty member in particular that Southern Man would like to strangle with his bare hands. Well, not really, but when a memo goes out early January to verify the Fall teaching schedule and look for problems and a professor replies with a long list of issues at 5:00 PM on the freakin' first day of Fall classes there is temptation to do some bodily harm.

Many students begin at one college and later decide to transfer to a different college for one reason or another. The often have many questions during the process or while considering a transfer, and I'd like to share my experiences and offer some insights.
Why Transfer To Another College?
Students transfer colleges for many reasons. Sometimes they realize that the college they're currently at doesn't have the major that they discovered they want. In other cases, the student realizes that the school isn't the right place for them, or that there are too many distractions for them to succeed academically. There are many solid reasons to transfer to another college, but transferring implies that the student will later be in a better place than they currently are. Just like a high school student who is doing a search for a college, transfer students need to also do a search for a better college. It is a search process that takes time, and moving home and going to their local community college may be a bad idea. There has been some evidence that bright students who attend community colleges become less likely than their peers to ever see graduation, so this type of strategy has to be undertaken carefully. Identifying the right college to transfer to will be very important, and if the student has a disability this is an extra factor to investigate since colleges vary on granting accommodations and support services offered.
Sometimes a student wants to transfer to a different college because they did poorly at their current college. Finding a place to transfer to after having a number of bad grades can be very difficult, and I've found that it can depend on a number of factors. For example, how badly did they actually do? Was the student placed on academic probation or suspension? Also, what types of colleges is the student open to as a place to transfer? Every college is different regarding how they feel about accepting students who have had bad grades in the past, and there are some that are open to offering a second chance to students. Again, it's a search process, and can take some time to find a school that is willing to work with a student who has had bad grades.
Will My Classes And GPA Transfer?
Each college is different when it comes to the rules that they set for students, grades, and the transferring of credits. However, there are some general "rules of thumb" that I've come across that can give students an idea of what to expect. Students need to ask the specific college about their transfer policies to understand what to expect.
A common "rule of thumb" for a class to transfer is that the college where the class will be transferred to must have an equivalent class for the course the student wishes to transfer. For example, if the student wants to transfer Introduction To Philosophy, the college they wish to transfer to must have that exact class. So, for some basic classes, the transfer process should be straight forward. For other classes, the transfer process might get a bit tricky. I have a couple of students who are attending a small private college in my area that has a class called "quantitative reasoning" that they require for graduation. This particular class is a hybrid of statistics and logic classes, and may not transfer as either statistics or logic since it was a hybrid. Any college that a student transfers to will do a credit evaluation to see what courses will transfer as usable credits or electives. Some students are even asked to provide the school with a copy of the course syllabus during this evaluation process.
The rule of thumb that I've encountered for a GPA is that it does not transfer. It resets at zero at the new school, which can be a good or bad thing for the student, depending on how they did at their previous school. Also, only classes where the student earned a "C" or better typically transfer to the new school. Since these are just general rules, students need to ask the school that they want to transfer to about their specific policies.
While many students are interested in transferring to a new college, they should do so only after identifying the reasons why and researching possible colleges to transfer. While many credits may transfer, others will not, and it's likely that they will need to begin earning a GPA all over again. While for some students this can bring an opportunity, others may find that their hard-earned GPA at their current school will be lost.

The Kansas City Royals lost for the first time this season, ending baseball's best start in 13 years as Ricardo Rodriguez pitched the Indians to a 6-1 victory Sunday at Cleveland and strained some relations along the way with a handful of flamboyant gestures.
"Hopefully, he'll be around the next time we face them," Royals outfielder Michael Tucker said.
The Royals, the first club to start 9-0 since the 1990 Cincinnati Reds, claim Rodriguez tried to show them up.
Instead, he kept Kansas City from becoming the eighth team in history to open at 10-0.

On this lovely blue-skied Wednesday I bring you a brand new YouTube video! Recently I found a couple of new pen pals, and decided to share the process of making a pen pal letter.
This video includes five simple steps for putting together a cute letter, with lots of sweet crafty ideas for you to try!
Below is a summary of the steps and ideas included in the video for reference.
1. Introduce yourself
- Write some basic facts about you in a pretty card.
- Sketch a map of where you live/your country.
- Draw a self-portrait and add labels, such as eye-colour and favourite jewellery.
- Give some recommendations for films, T.V., music and books.
- And of course, write a letter! Talk about what you've been up to and your dreams for the future.
- It's also nice to add stickers and stamps for a finishing touch.
2. Make something
- I made a small notebook. You can see how I did this in my simple notebook tutorial video.
- You could also paint or draw a picture.
- Make a collage or mixed media piece.
- Sew something small or weave a friendship bracelet.
- …or make anything else that is easy to post and isn't breakable!
3. Add cute art and craft supplies
- Fun stickers.
- Bookplates – these usually have nice illustrations and are self adhesive.
- A washi tape sample.
- Some sticky notes on a postcard.
- Buttons and ribbon.
4. Wrap them up
- Use pretty paper bags to make sweet packages for your pen pal to open.
- Close these with washi tape, and write a label.
- You could also use a wax seal on the envelope with your letter.
5. Put it all together!
- Finally put everything together in a large envelope.
- Make the package extra special by adding some doodles (this is easier when the envelope is still empty).
- Add your pen pal's address, as well as your own address (in case they don't have yours yet, or the letter gets lost).
Then all that's left to do is post your lovely letter! Let me know if you try any of these ideas, and what you thought of the video.
Have you sent any happy mail recently? Do you have a pen pal? If so what do you send to them? Share your stories and ideas in the comments below, or join me on Instagram or Facebook.
Coming up I will have a blog post this Sunday, and then (hopefully) another YouTube video next Wednesday! I'm taking things slow around here so I can concentrate on creating top quality content, rather than a large quantity of posts, and get back to drawing and painting as well.
Have a beautiful day sisters!
Peace and love,
