I don't mind the passing of the seasons. I live at home still and so the cold doesn't worry me. If I go out I dress for the temperature that's going on at the time. If I'm at home the house is always warm anyway.
I used to be a bit embarrassed at my parents' house as it's a fairly new Barret Box of a place. I don't know if it actually is a Barret Box, but that's what they have always called it. Basically it's a modern house that's really well insulated and so if the sun is shining even in winter it doesn't seem to need any heating, and if it's not shining then it doesn't cost much.
So I don't have to worry about having no money and not being able to stay warm.
Nonetheless I do get a bit down as the evenings draw in.
Over the last couple of months I've been getting out on my bike more often and that has been good for body and soul. The exercise has helped me feel better about my self, made me feel stronger, and is good for clearing the blues at the same time. I know I can carry on riding in the dark, and in fact I have bought some pretty amazing LED lights for the bike that didn't cost much at all, but it does seem a bit dangerous.
I want to get out there over the next few days with Dad's camera and capture some of the falling or turning leaves. If I get anything good I'll try to remember to post them in this blog. Autumn. Yes, autumn is ok, but when winter falls I'll be looking forward to the 21st December when the evening start to lighten again.
The kids have broken up from school, and, with good weather forecast for the foreseeable future, every parent is going to wonder what they should be doing with the kids. I know for a fact (because it used to be me) that after a few days of the long summer holiday, cabin fever sets in and kids start to get bored, so I've thought of a few activity ideas that the whole family can enjoy together.
If money is tight in your household, as it occasionally is in mine, you need to consider days out that are free or cost very little. On a typical family outing, the expenditure tends to be not just on the cost of travelling somewhere and paying to get in, but also on all the extras such as lunches, drinks, snacks and souvenirs. I certainly don't have the money to be spending on these things and I'm sure no-one else has either.
There are plenty of free days out. Kids love to get out in the fresh air, so why not take them to the local park with a picnic. I find that making lunches like this costs far less than buying them from the nearest fast food outlet, and all you have to do is give the kids a football or a couple of tennis rackets and they will be busy for hours. I know of at least three parks in my area that are within walking distance, so I wouldn't even need to use transport, making this a very low cost and fun day out.
I've never been one for spending a lot of time in museums and art galleries, but if you are looking for a cultural day out that costs very little then these should be high on the list. Museums in particular are getting to be a little more interactive these days, so the chances of the kids getting bored are not as great as they were when museums were dusty places that demanded silence all the time.
Finally, if your kids really do insist on things such as theme park days out then you need to look out for special offers. I've become quite good at finding bargains like this; during the summer these places are keen to attract our custom, so there are plenty of two for one offers and cut-price entrance deals, so that you can have the fun at a fraction of the cost.
That JRR Tolkien could write a decent yarn. The Lord of The Rings trilogy is an old favourite of mine, so when I heard that The Hobbit was getting released at the cinema I got rather excited. So excited, in fact, that I dug out my old copy of The Hobbit and read it again.
It is still as good as I remember it and those who have been bored by the LOTR books should definitely read this, as it is a lot easier to digest than Frodo's exploits. Bilbo Baggins is the main man in the story, and he is the cousin of Frodo.
For those who have no idea what The Hobbit is about, it is the starting point for the whole LOTR series. Without spoiling it too much, Bilbo goes on an awesome mission with a lot of dwarves – or dwarfs – and with the occasional fleeting assistance of everybody's favourite arcane dabbler – or wizard – Gandalf.
Book the film
They set off to reclaim some stolen treasure from a rather grumpy and selfish dragon, and success will see the dwarves reclaim their castle and piles of gold, trinkets, jewels, ornate weaponry and the mighty Arkenstone.
I don't want to say too much because the film is in three parts. Although I haven't seen it, I know where part one of the film ends from a friend who has seen it. The good news for those who have seen it is the best is yet to come. Beorn is one of my favourite characters in the book and it is looking likely that he will make an appearance in the second of The Hobbit films.
Peter Jackson is doing a service to literature with his film adaptations of these classic books. Purists will argue that the film does not have the details contained in the books, but my view is that he is keeping the story alive. In a world where kids play more Xbox than read books, this kind of film is a godsend for real writing and literature.
I was inspired by this book as a kid, and the chances are that kids today will also be inspired. Good work, Jackson.
Okay, recreational drugs are bad, whether they are legal or not. The alteration of an individual's perception is generally an unhealthy way to enjoy a night out. That said, beer is also dodgy and people hammer that, the same with nicotine, Simon Cowell, and Skyrim. Shiva, which shares its name with a Hindu God and an extremely potent form of cannabis, is a novelty shop that is known online as the Shivahead shop.
There are a wide variety of interesting products available from Shiva, including a range of sexual aids such as flesh lights and vibrators. There are also herbal stimulants available that are used for their aphrodisiac effects. Electrosex is a relatively new pastime that involves the passing of electrical currents through various points on the human body, and a box can be bought that lets the user connect and control the amount of electricity sent through the body.
There are also a variety of party accessories available on the site in the form of glow sticks, daft glasses and whistles. These are ideal accessories for those who want to enjoy a barmy night out.
Shiva also offers themed items for sale, such as Jack Daniels themed cigarette cases, lighters and hip flasks, among other novelty items for paraphernalia enthusiasts. For instance, the shop carries a stock of Bob Marley themed products.
I have a friend who has tried the legal high Salvia Divinorum. We were at a music festival when he ambled over with a daft smile on his face and proceeded to tell me how he had just bought some of the stuff from a stall. A small amount was put in a pipe and everyone (apart from me, I am mad enough already) took a deep inhalation of the psychoactive drug. My friend went drip white within a few seconds of taking the drug, and then laid down and stared at the sky for what seemed like ages.
Afterwards, I asked him how the effects of the drug felt, and he said he felt as if the whole right-hand side of his body was somehow transparent while it also felt as if that side of his body was in another plane of reality. He added that the effects of the drug were very strong and he would not be taking it again. So the advice here is to avoid Salvia unless you are mentally very strong and don't mind being unrecognisably hammered.
The Shiva shop has a variety of concoctions and potions, as well as novelty products that are for various uses. Two pieces of advice – always read the label and always research the item or product if you have never heard of it.
Today I went on a really long walk with Bob, the dog.
This is Bob, she's 3 years old now and loves to go for long walks so she can bound along in the fields.
It helps me think when I am out walking but also helps me forget that I haven't much to do. Today I had a funny experience as I headed back home through the park. There was an old lady there and she had the hugest dog I have seen, or it may have been because she was quite small. No lie, in comparison to her it looked like a horse and half the time I was expecting her to jump on its back and ride away like a cowboy or something.
Anyway I saw that the dog was pulling her along a bit and she seemed to be struggling so me and Bob headed over and I offered to help. She was really grateful as she sounded tired, so I took the beast's lead, and it was pretty funny as it pulled so hard that the next minute I knew I was on the floor and had dropped the lead and the beast was off. I chased after him and so did Bob and quite surprisingly Bob seemed to round up the beast and allow me to catch up to it and grab the lead. This time I took tight hold of the lead and I walked the old lady, who I found out was called Kate, and the beast, who was called Smithy, home. She only lives around the corner so its surprising that we haven't seen each other before. Kate was very grateful for my help and she said she would bake me something delicious 🙂

"What Obama is doing is blatantly in direct opposition to the safety of the American people. Now we even have EVIDENCE that the whole refugee crisis is an orchestrated plot specifically DESIGNED to bring about the end of nation states and national boundaries."
New World Order billionaire George Soros mocks those few national leaders attempting to protect their own people from an invasion of young men who seem unlikely to have the desire to assimilate peacefully: "His plan treats the protection of national borders as the objective and the refugees as an obstacle," Mr Soros added. "Our plan treats the protection of refugees as the objective and national borders as the obstacle."
full original article HERE
Obama's policies clearly hurt the United States and help accelerate plans for a one world government. But Obama's puppetmasters may be surprised, if instead of heading towards a New World Order under their control, he steers towards a Caliphate under Sharia Law. Consider reading:

Harmones will make your color change mine at certain times of the month has a red tent to it and sometimes it is much lighter than other times. Instead of mood swings I have hair mood swings. Getting quiet a bit of natures highlights also.
Greetings and salutations to all who deem this worthy of your time...
As any woman knows, the wrestling match between Father Time and Mother Nature is never a pretty sight. Yet, some of us keep egging it on. I did my part to thumb my nose at the both of them tonight... I recolored that pesky stripe that insists on making an appearance every so often. I am sorry, but I will not tolerate those silvery strands, thank you very much!
My days of scowling, and searching for those meddlesome strands began in high school, senior year. One day, as I was getting ready for school, carefully curling my hair after mousing and blow drying the hell out of it, I saw something twinkling at me. It was one, thin, silvery thread. I figured it had been something caught in my brush, deposited and glued by the mouse into my hair. I leaned in to get a good look in the mirror, Isolating it from the rest with growing horror. IT WAS GROWING OUT OF MY HEAD!!!! I was 18!! No way was I getting gray, let alone silver hair at 18, right? Ladies, you know what i did, right? Yanked the sucker, of course!!
I would find a stray silvery strand from time to time over the years, except for my college years, when I streaked my hair, and later when I began experimenting with color.
Okay, for a short while in college, I did have purple hair with a punk hair cut. Very briefly. Then, for a time I had dark brown, almost black hair. Once, I even had deep red. Mostly, I wore it streaked, though, until the time I was carrying my son, and made the mistake of asking my husband to pull the strands through the cap. I still say it was all his fault that I was suddenly completely platinum blond. I sat and cried for about thirty minutes, and then we went to an all night grocery store and found something to darken it a bit. Lasted about a week before it all washed out, and there I was, white headed for the duration, too scared to do anything else for fear it would fall out. There are photos of my reversed skunk look around here somewhere. I would burn them, but my grandmother and darlin' late aunt are in them.
I swore off hair coloring for a time. I stuck with my boring brown hair, with okay red highlights and some lightening in the sun. it got to the point where I barely noticed my hair at all during my long period of depression. Summers, I'd slap it into a ponytail. If we went somewhere, I usually just slid a plastic head band on. I didn't give a damn what I looked like.
Almost two years ago, that changed. I looked in the mirror, and there was this old woman looking back at me. Worse, I had more gray than my own mother. Now, I really don't care much for what the mirror shows me anyway. On a good day, I figure i have average looks. Not great, never beautiful, not really even pretty. I have had people disagree with that, and I just figure they are being nice, or need their eyes examined. On a bad day, I think I make those frigging 'Walking Dead' folk look good. Anyway, there isn't much I can do about it. I slap on some make up now and then, but it's like painting a pig's butt. No matter how you look at it, it's still a butt. The hair, however, I can do something about. What really nearly pushed me over the edge was my husband, I guess trying to say something nice, telling me he liked being married to a distinguished looking woman. You can imagine the language that popped out of my mouth at that!! MEN are distinguished with gray, not women!
I'm cheap, so I do the crap myself, always. I also try to do it these days when there is no chance of someone being home, just in case I screw something up and have to preform hairy carry, as in, it all falls out and I have to carry it to the trash. Anyway, I haven't colored it since my surgery, or, I think, the Gulf trip, and it was getting entirely too twinkly there in my part. Okay, it was beginning to look like frigging Christmas tinsel had fallen out of a tree and sprouted.
Tonight, well, let's just say I once again tried to get my hands in those one size fits no one gloves and once again said bye bye to the silver. I have yet to look at the results, though it has nearly air dried. Pray it doesn't look like I dipped my head in ink or something, okay?
Medium Golden Brown, my ass!!! It's much redder than usual...
Well, at least it didn't fall out, or turn white...
Harmones will make your color change mine at certain times of the month has a red tent to it and sometimes it is much lighter than other times. Instead of mood swings I have hair mood swings. Getting quiet a bit of natures highlights also.
I AGREE with CONNIE!
Ohhhh! Red is beautiful! So if you have a hint of red on top, you guessed it. Beautiful.

Have you ever encountered a ghost?
If you go back and read my first post on this blog, you will discover that I lived in a haunted house for a period of almost three years.
My experiences varied, but seemed to increase more as time passed. In the end, I sold because I didn't want to live with it any longer among other things.
My question is: Have you ever encountered what you think might have been a ghost?
Labels: dead lights, demon, haunted house, hauntings, spirits, zombies

Yup. Broad daylight on a highway. Saw him along the side of the road, told husband to watch out for him, saw him chase after something that rolled out to the middle of the highway. Truck passed us, we passed the point where the fellow was. I looked back, nothing.ReplyDelete
Yes. I've encountered more than one. I grew up in a huge old rambling brick Victorian house that was haunted.ReplyDelete
Haven't actually seen a ghost but I have seen a creepy shadow leaning against the inside of my bedroom door and I guess I saw what I think they call dopplegangers of my cousin twice.ReplyDelete

We are in full-on Baby Alert, my son is due any time now! Well, technically, the 19th, but you never can tell with bees. Babies. Babiees? Baby bees.
Been spending the past little while getting everything ready, one of the reasons I haven't been blogging or publishing all that much. My productivity lately is all over the place, I think I'm trying to put a lid on my anxieties by having as much sense of accomplishment as possible. It's sorta working out, we'll see : ) I've started sooooooooooooo many projects, none of which is finished enough to show off. In the past I might have had 2 or 3 things on the go at any one time, now it's close to two dozen. That's a good thing and a bad thing, I'm definately full of ideas, but I'm fairly scatter brained at the same time. I haven't done a regular webcomic in over a year, it's been a very weird year to be sure, but keeping up with something with a regular deadline I think is really good for me, and I'm looking forward to starting up Something as soon as I'm able. I'm trying not to plan things out at the moment, because it's easier to react to new things if you're not planned out, and all of the things I schedule don't seem to be happening properly anyway.
My life has been in a big transitionary period of late, I've grown a beard to demonstrate that, but I still don't know what it's transitioning in to. I'm doing things I've never done before, and not doing things I've always done, and it's been very very strange. Good, for the most part, but hard to know how to react properly.
Trying to be a human is hard sometimes.
Fairy Tales I Just Made Up is at the printers, it should be back in my hands in November. This is a Big Accomplishment, the kickstarter was a huge, exhausting success. From my perspective, FTIJMU has been nearly done for quite some time, I wrote the last story over a year ago, in the backseat of a car, while scouting for wedding locations. So all the really fun parts of that project are done, it's mostly the hard work stuff to do now.
Pirate Penguin book 2 has also been done and ready for quite some time, I've been talking to my publishers at Top Shelf, and it should be coming out next year, in time for the San Diego Comic Con.
The secret project I can't tell you about is also moving forward, I haven't been paid or gotten to draw anything besides samples yet, but the wheels are in motion.
Other than that, personal projects I've been starting include:
Three Different Novels, the kind with words, not pictures. One is full on ADULT, with philosophy and swearing whereas the others are more young adult, with talking cats and pirates and stuff.
A BAJILLION kids books. So many you guys, like, at least two dozen so far. That ABC book I'm posting pictures of? Tip of the Miceberg. What's a miceberg? It's an ice berg of mice. Duh.
A half dozen comics ideas, with dinosaurs, time travelers, wizards, samurai, and hipster astronauts in them. I'll be posting them just as soon as I am able.
I wanna do some videos too. Both more little story videos, and maybe me just vlogging, I could become an internet celebrity or something.
I want to collaborate with more people, I've got a half dozen friends and acquantances in my head I want to steal and do some art together.
I wanna write a play, and some friggin TV shows.
I wanna do all the things!
Hopefully I'll get the free time and confidence to do some of them sooner than later.
Mostly I'll be holding a tiny baby full of MY genetics, and complimenting it on it's cuteness.
Further bulletins as events warrant.
Ray Out.

The BNP's creep toward "respectability"
It's been talked about time and again, particularly since the turn of the century, but the BNP's continuing attempt to re-cast itself as a party that has thrown off the old "jackboot" image is still fooling many, it seems. As a political party that is, if not fluent, at least conversational, in PR, the flow of stories about supposed pillars of the community who have "seen the light" and joined the new, improved party must delight Nick Griffin, who gains reflected acceptability from the people joining. It helps if these people are female, and more so if they are pretty, because it is harder to picture these poster-children wearing a Chelsea shirt and defiling a mosque.
The Daily Mail, (I know, such a cliché, what can I say?), is often the source of these PR victories for the modern-day Moseleys. Careful to adorn their stories with caveats that make clear how unpleasant they find the BNP, the Mail is beginning to specialise in stories about the softer, more human, and let's be honest, less-likely-to-be-tattooed face of the party. The latest of these is Donna Bailey, whose bid to be elected to the parish council of Upper Beeding in Sussex was stymied since it emerged that she was a card-carrying member of the Bigoted Nazi Party. Bailey is quick to reject the assertion that Griffin's merry band of Holocaust deniers, racists and cranks are an extreme-right party, but asked to name a more extreme party she says: "I don't know the names of them but there are some. Maybe that Combat 18. Now they are extreme."
That'd be the Combat 18 who aren't actually a political party, but a splinter-group from yer actual BNP, who still share many common members with, yes, the BNP. Yeah, you're dead right, they are extreme. Well spotted. She goes on to bring out some cracking deadpan one-liners, saying that the parish council's decision not to elect her into its number as "discriminatory" (and you suddenly have a problem with discrimination since you joined a party that denies people membership on the basis of their race?). Because her membership of the BNP means nothing to her supporters, proudly disinterested in politics as they are, she retains their support, although gratifyingly she was defeated in the eventual election (and then soundly patronised on her party's own website). Her dreams of one day being an MP, rest assured, seem a long way off as she cannot win an election even when faced with an electorate that she mostly knows by name. But it does seem that being photogenic and having no criminal record – two things that place her in a minority within the party – have seen her given an easier ride than would ordinarily be afforded a BNP member.
The same could be said for Simone Clarke, now obligatorily referred to as the "BNP ballerina". The head dancer of the English National Ballet was revealed last year to be a member of the party, and the sympathetic hearing she gained from the Mail may have a lot to do with her gender and her looks (how ironic that the BNP should benefit from positive discrimination, and that the Daily Mail should partake in same). Where normally someone promoting a political party might expect to be hauled over the coals for showing a worrying ignorance of what that party stands for, and for singularly failing to back up their arguments, Clarke is almost patted on the head for being the victim of a nasty, dirt-digging journalist.
The crippling naivete – or even bland, meaningless platitudes – on display in the interview actually seem to count in Clarke's favour. While I despise the BNP and all that it represents, I must admit to having a shade more respect for someone who votes for or joins them if they are open and honest about WHY they have done so – they may be a bigoted toad, but at least they're not posing as a vulnerable faun. Clarke's defence reads like a checklist of clichéd pub philosophy:
"Using the word immigration is now a greater crime than cold-blooded murder" – no. No, it's not. Jesus, people call liberals whiny?
"I'm not too proud to say that a lot of it went over my head" – there's a clue in there, Simone. I take no interest in particle physics for that very reason, I don't pay £25 to join a fan club for it.
"I think the BNP are honest. They're not trying to dress up what they want, which is change on these issues." – no, they aren't, and yes, they are. See Nick Griffin caught on hidden camera, then see him interviewed. He's a racist and a liar, sticking a suit on him won't alter the fact.
"I'm not a particularly political person but I read the manifesto and I took it on face value." – another error there. Nick Griffin could pledge to dangle his dick in a bucket of custard on taking his seat in the House of Commons in the full knowledge that he won't need to make good on it.
"I don't know why it's OK to be shot for your mobile phone and the thief be given a few months in prison but I'm not allowed to say, 'I don't agree with that'." – you just did.
The article was written at a time when Clarke was still shacked up with fellow dancer Yat-Sen Chang, a Cuban immigrant with a Chinese father and an individual who would be barred from joining the Griffin revolution on the basis of his foreign nationality. Since then, however, she has dumped him and swiftly got engaged to BNP bigwig Richard Barnbrook. Of course there's nothing sinister in that – when love strikes, it strikes regardless of circumstances. Anyone taking the cynical and wrong attitude that there's a hint of PR in a prominent member of the BNP ending a relationship of which the party disapproves and moving in with a fellow party member who while at university directed and produced a film that looked a hell of lot like gay erotica and has a tendency to get really quite agitated at the very mention of this, almost like someone trying desperately to distance himself from something… well, it's horrible even to suggest such a thing. You won't hear me saying that it all looks like a coincidence to try and shrug off reputations that are potentially damaging to Clarke's and Barnbrook's standing within the party.
I just wonder if the Mail have an exclusive deal to show the wedding photos, that's all.

So you are happy to let the UK be taken over by religious ideology which has its roots in 7th Century Arabia?
Which political party is protecting you and your family from a demographic calamity of huge proportions?
During the early 70's a plan was put into operation by which these people could take over the UK and Europe, this plan needed uncontrolled immigration of Muslims. If you remember we had an oil crisis, everybody was rationed on how much fuel you could put into your tank. This oil cut back by the middle east ensured we gave them what they wanted and planned, we open up the tap for oil if you let millions of us into your countries.
The plan has worked very well, within 50 years the British population on this Island will be a minority…FACT NOT FICTION. Now do you really believe that the Muslims will not bring in a Islamic state when they have the power to do so? if you think not you are a bread van short of a bakery!
You are all very good at calling everyone that says no to this plan, a racist bigot, but you and your utopian friends ever comes up with a plan on how it can be stopped. Leaving things as they are will have two effects:
1. The UK becoming an Islamic nation within 50 years
2. A civil war with huge loss of life.
Come on what is your plan apart from doing NOTHING?
I would sooner stop immigration and reverse it now while we still have a majority, than wait for a miracle that 30 or 40 percent of the Muslim population will suddenly change and become tolerant of other religions. That my liberal friend will not happen. the Qu'ran or their war manual will not be changed one iota and your grandchildren will have to live in a world of hell because you were to stupid to understand what the Islamic world has been forthright in telling us for years.
So I await with baited breathe what your answer to this problem really is or are you just a big waste of breath like the rest of these mamby pamby liberals look here's utopia idiots who think everyone is like you?
Oh by the way I am not a BNP Member just your average everyday secondary school educated British subject who served his country for nine years and watching it go down the pan. So please don't accuse me of being a Nazi, I'm just concerned about my country. But I must tell you that I am really considering joining the BNP and will most likely give them my vote and I don't really care what you think about that, it is my right as a British subject to make a free choice of who I want to represent me.
There are many people like me, but our voices are drowned out by polically correct idiots who believe everyone that has a nationalistic idea is a Nazi and a racist, but in reality it's people like you that have the problem and it's people like you that will lose their heads when they take over which is likely to happen if we do not change tack.
[…] readers will know of my unrestrained adoration of Richard Barnbrook, London Assembly member and aspiring film director. It was to my delight, […]

The more experienced you are as a skier, the more important your poles become. Learn how to use them from the moment you go into your first stem christie.
Before initiating the turn bend your knees, lower your center of gravity, and then, stretching your arm forward, drop the point of the pole next to the shovel of the ski that will be on the inside of the turn, and ski around it. What you've done, in effect, is to use the pole to mark the turn.
As soon as you slide into the turn, raise yourself up fully until you're ready for your next turn.
There's a sort of chant that can help you with your turns:
Down. Plant pole. Start turn. Up as you complete the turn.
Naturally, as you reach forward to plant the pole to mark the inside of the turn, you may forget that you have another hand holding another pole. The consequences of this are that your outside hand will fall in back
of your outside hip, pulling you off balance. You may not fall. You will struggle to complete the turn successfully. Keep both hands on the handle- bars of the bicycle you're riding.
What's next? You haven't gotten to Carnegie Hall yet. Practice.

Easter eggs have always been a big source of fun and enjoyment in my family. At a young age simply dunking them in dye seemed boring. We also got those plastic sheaths that put in boiling water and the suck onto the egg. The novelty of that wore off. We found egg stencils. The marker ran really easily. There is a Slavic egg decorating technique that uses wax that was pretty neat but very time consuming. Then we developed our own style. It includes using a hot glue gun, felt, cardboard, etc. There are all sorts of things that can happen when you expand your creativity to beyond the simple egg shape! When I was a kid we used to get eggs from a farm and around Easter they would give us some of their "small" eggs that didn't make it to the proper size. It was fun to be able to make a duck with little ducklings. Here is this year's group:
Here are a few in progress shots
And close-ups!

Credit consolidation basics
Regardless of if you need a major overhaul, or just a small tune up, there are lots of other people in your same shoes. You'll find ideas below that will spark your ability to improve your credit.
You should keep and eye on your credit report by checking it several times a year. Don't think you have to pay for this, there are places that provide this service for free. It is easier to figure out how to fix your credit if you know what you owe.
Don't avoid the institutions that you owe money to. Go ahead and give them a call, and begin a conversation about your financial issues and status. Creditors will aid you in determining how to pay off your debt and what needs to be paid right away. It is smart to know this information so that you do not wind up paying penalties or late fees which will end up costing you more money. You should concentrate on paying the most urgent bills and postpone the others.
If there are negative marks on your credit report, take note of them. Then, dig a little deeper and look for incorrect information. Once you know the biggest problems with your credit, you can take steps to tackle them.
It's important that you know your legal rights when it comes to debt. Don't worry about threats of jail time. Be aware, different states have different laws. Collection agencies are not allowed to threaten or harass you during telephone calls. Learning what debtors can and cannot do is extremely helpful.
Make every effort to keep your credit card balances under 30 percent of the credit limit. This will keep your payments at a reasonable cost and help your credit.
You can talk to collection agencies to come up with a payment plan. Since all these agencies want is your money, they are usually willing to work with you to get it. It is never helpful to avoid your debt and refusing to talk with collection agencies will only make matters worse. Emphasize that you having a difficult time paying off your debt, but that you are interested in doing whatever you can. Collectors might agree to reduce your debt since they bought your debt from the original creditor for pennies on the dollar and will be happy to make a profit. If you are willing to work with them, they probably will work with you. Collection agencies will gladly lower your payments and make compromises if you are making efforts.
Using these tips is a good way to make yourself creditworthy again. You can start repairing your credit now by using these tips. from insolvency specialists.

I have a love/hate relationship with smallness. And by 'smallness' I'm not talking the mini-Snickers-bar variety. I'm talking recognizing my little space in the grand scheme of things. The introverted side of me craves smallness. The quiet. Peace. Not being the center of attention.
And yet.
There's another side of me, a side that wants to be noticed. To feel appreciated. To feel significant to THAT person. The side of me that craves those words of affirmation.
How do I walk the tension in staying small, especially in keeping my writing small? How do I approach writing, not as another task to check off my list (which is exactly what I've been doing lately), but as the life-giving, creative-soul-exercise that it is?
Maybe it's by continuing to do what I'm doing now – writing just for the sake of writing (and these words were originally just morning pages). No blog post (except here I am, turning it into one). No Christmas/thank you cards. No audience, really. Just me, God, the pen and the paper. Oh, and Christmas music dancing along in the background. Because writing for me usually needs a soundtrack.
And another question: how do I fight that comparison-bug that insists that my writing look like so-and-so's, or that my writing routine look a certain way, or that I publish and promote my blog on social media in all the right ways?
"I will write to connect, not compete." ~Emily P. Freeman
Maybe it's by remembering that my writing is not in competition with anyone else's. It exists, small enough, in it's own right, on my page, my blog, or wherever the words pour forth. But the goal is connection, not competition. One day, it may be the connection between my head and my heart – writing down all the thoughts floating around into some coherent string of words. Another day, it may be the connection between my heart and God's heart – processing the way I see Him at work in and around me. And yet another day, it may be the connection between me and you – sharing a bit of hope, encouragement, or a simple "I've been there…me too!"
Because writing only feels truest to me when it's a method of connection…no matter how small that connection is.
It's still important.

I'm procrastinating…..RIGHT NOW!! Oh yea. Is it wrong to use my blog as a way to put stuff off? No, I didn't think so. Cuz, really I'm doing something!! Just not what I should be doing.
And I'm not even putting something off I don't want to do. I got my 3 miles in. Awesome. I uploaded photos from yesterday's beautiful wedding we attended for our dear friends daughter. (Just as a side note, I still can't believe she's old enough to be married! I still remember her as the little girl across the street. I cried many tears yesterday, but they were all happy tears!)
I also bought clothes to wear to the wedding. Clothes that I didn't wear and need to return. This is where the procrastination kicks in. I have to go to the mall and I really really really don't want to go back. Ugh! But I have to. I have 4 dresses that need returned. Sigh….
I've decided I no longer love to shop for myself. I used to L-O-V-E shopping! I imagined the day where my Richard Gere would hand me an AMEX Black card and get super offended when I told him the saleswomen were mean to me and he would escort me to the stores and insist, no demand, that they suck up to me. Of course, Roy Orbison would be playing on a constant loop as I twirled and giggled and fawned over the beautiful, perfectly fitting outfits the sucking up saleswomen brought for me.
Yea, so, since THAT isn't happening, I have to fend for myself. I discovered in this quest to find a dress, a simple freaking dress, that it's way more difficult than anticipated. First of all, as I told a friend yesterday, I truly believe 95% of all clothes in the stores are separates. Not dresses. Tops and bottoms. Racks and racks. 3 dresses in the whole store. Is it the time of year? Is it that no one wears dresses anymore? I mean, what's up with that?
Next on the problem list is that I now fall in between sizes. No big deal right? Wrong. Too tight and I look like a stuffed sausage. Too loose and it looks like tent. Not to mention that almost always, it's guaranteed if I find a dress that I actually like, they won't have my size. At all. I mean, there's "too small" and then there's size 2. Even 3 years AFTER my death, I will not wear a Size 2.
So then, if I happen to find a dress that is close to my size, I snag it. And I study every flaw I find in my body for approximately 30 minutes. Bulge here. Too much cleavage there. Arm flab there. Sigh…. I yank it over my head, hang it back on the hanger and try the next one on.
Then I just can't decide which flaw is more noticeable in which dress. So I get them all. Bring them home, try them all back on again. I twirl. I bend over. I suck in. I try to breathe while sucked in. (Seriously, it's a talent to be able to do that for long periods of time without passing out). I still can't decide. Michael gets the final pick because honestly, I'm just exhausted at this point. I'd wear a sack or my sweats. Whatever. I don't care.
But now I have to return the 4 dresses that didn't make the cut. I kept the one I actually wore to the wedding, but the rest are going back. And I'll be in and out of the car, explaining why I don't like it. Yes I tried it on before I bought it. Yes, I changed my mind. No, I didn't wear it. See? Tags still on. SIGH………
But then I think of the money I spent on those 4 dresses and realize I need to get them back to the store. Maybe the laundry needs switching? Dishwasher need unloading? The floors for sure needs sweeping.
OK, ok…..I'm going……..

SOURCE: Kirby Sentria - Not distributing shampoo correctly
this site may be helpful
make sure the brushes on the shampooer head are spinning and that you have the shampooer head lowered all the way down to its lowest setting. Also...shampoo at a slower pace than you would move when vacuuming...when both putting down the suds on heavily soiled areas and scooping them up. The more oils in the carpet, the less suds you'll see when the shampooer is working properly. one more thing that may be mentioned in the guide is the little round sud screen that attaches to one end of the shampooer hose...make sure that little mesh screen is there and seated properly. It is what produces the suds from the shampoo solution.

Traditional Korean Patterns and Symbols
Korean society traditionally adapted to and found meaning in the order of nature. Wanting to pass on the hidden meanings of the natural world to future generations and believing them as a law and order in their daily lives, Korean people have created myriads of beautiful and diverse patterns and motifs (often embodying auspicious meanings) which can be found adorning everything from Korean traditional architecture to objects of every day life.
This talent reflected in all aspects of Korean culture, from common people's daily goods and accessories to royal clothing. These patterns can be found almost everywhere you look in Korea, from the Taegeuk in the national flag of South Korea to the animal designs on chopsticks in restaurants.
Many Korean symbols are similar to the Chinese characters for luck, fortune, longevity, and fertility.
Common themes in Korean symbols include longing for paradise, happiness, love, and good fortune.
The use of these patterns reveals much about how Koreans sought practicality, as well as a sense of refinement and beauty, in whatever surrounded them.
Double Hee: Happiness for Husband and Wife
This symbol expresses the wishes for a husband and wife to enjoy a happy marriage and many can be found at wedding ceremonies throughout Korea and other parts of East Asia (China, Hong Kong, Japan, Taiwan).
In a broader sense, the meaning of the Double Hee symbol extends to a harmonious combination of Yin (female) and Yang (male) energies taken from Chinese cosmology.
Pujok: Good Luck, Protection
This type of talisman comes in 2 types: one acts as a good luck charm, and the other works to protect from evil or bad luck. The pujok commonly had a yellow background with red symbols or characters. People felt that evil spirits disliked the colors of gold and yellow. Red represented blood or fire, and psychologically it meant the color of life and emotion.
People attached the pujok to their body or drank its ashes after it was burnt. Sometimes, it was put on a wall or upper part of a door to protect a house or part of a building. A pujok can be customized for a specific ailment or circumstance or generic ones can be used for general purposes. Pujok can be purchased from shamans or some Buddhist monks in Korea.
Buddhist Swastika: Auspiciousness
The Buddhist symbol of the swastika represents an auspicious sign in Buddhism and is an ancient symbol originally thought to be Indian in origin - svastika is a Sanskrit word meaning auspiciousness or good luck.
The swastika was considered to have omnipotent godly power, as well as the meaning of the whole universe. The swastika symbol probably passed to China and the Korea Peninsula along with Buddhism.
Danch'eong: Enlightenment
One of the most recognizable arts of Korean Buddhism, the brightly colored patterns of danch'eong adorn the ceilings, eaves, support pillars, and walls of temple buildings.
The combination of certain colors (blue, red, yellow, white, and black, based on the Dual Principle and the Five Elements of Eastern philosophy) symbolized the bright enlightenment of the next world.
Round patterns meant people's lives are supposed to transmigrate: when someone reaches Nirvana, he or she can obtain the wisdom of Buddha.
Taegeuk: Ultimate Existence
The Taegeuk or ultimate existence symbol has its origin in basic value and existence. In Buddhism, this pattern means the ultimate equality and balance.
Embodying the Dual Principle (of Yin/Yang), the taegeuk also represents the continuous cycle of life.
Fish: Diligent Self-discipline
Since a fish does not close its eyes when it sleeps or even when it dies, an ascetic devotee in Buddhism was expected to reach Nirvana with continuous effort like a fish.
The classic Yin and Yang symbol can be interpreted as two fish and the fish can represent fearlessness and freedom.
Lotus: Creation, Birth
A Buddhist story tells that the lotus came from the navel of a God who slept under water called confusion. For this reason it symbolizes birth and creation.
The lotus also grows from muddy water and thus is a symbol of the purity that can be achieved even in trying and difficult circumstances.
Bat: Good Luck
The Chinese ideogram for bat is pronounced the same as the ideogram for good fortune (pok in Korean). This led to bat images being embroidered on pillow ends and incorporated into furniture designs and fittings as a symbol of good fortune.
As bats were supposed to live 1000 years, their image was also used as a symbol of longevity. A design of 5 bats, called Obok (5 blessings), represents the five fortunes: longevity, wealth, health, love of virtue, and natural death.
8 Marks (p'al kwai): Truths of Life and Nature
The eight marks come from the Chinese King named Bokhee. According to legend, he created eight marks after observing the nature of sky, geography, and natural laws. These 8 characters were geometric symbols that were believed to explain all natural phenomena and shapes.
People thought the 8 marks contained all the truths of human life and nature. By following orders and rules of nature in their lives, people's successes and failure, happiness and bad luck could be accorded with nature's truth.

Korean Flag T'aegukki
After an incident with a Japanese ship in 1872 and increased contact with other countries, the Korean government realized the need for a national symbol. The first flag was created in 1882 and over the years the design has varied. Banned during the Japanese occupation (1910-45), the present flag was created in 1948 for use by the South Korean government.
The T'aegukki depicts the balancing philosophies of Yin/Yang and the concept of Ohaengsol (five directions). In the central circle, the red portion represents positive Yang, while the blue portion represents negative Yin. It is an ancient symbol representing balance and harmony. The combination of bars in each corner also symbolizes opposites and balance. The set in the upper left corner embodies heaven, spring, east, and gentility. The lower right corner: the earth, summer, west, and justice. The upper right corner: the moon, winter, north, and wisdom. The lower left corner: the sun, autumn, south, and courtesy.
Symbolism of Colors in Korea
The colors in Korea have a traditional symbolism and related meanings. The colors used in the paintings on the eaves and columns of Korean temples are referred to as Dancheong. The five main colors of black, blue, yellow and white refer to the five elements of classic Chinese philosophy.
The color yellow in Korea is associated with earth, black with water, white with metal, green/blue with wood and red with fire. The colors are also associated with seasons: green for spring, red for summer, yellow for late summer, white for autumn and black for winter and even specific times of the day. Dancheong colors also represent the directions: blue (east), white (west), red (south), black (north) and yellow (center).
