Norman Geras
I hate to sound like a lickspittle, but honestly, Normblog is one of the most decent, well argued blogs around. As more of a conservative than a liberal I err towards Iain Dale in terms of political blogs but I seem to always agree with what Norm posts, which is often explained carefully for those (like me) who don't get it first time. More to the point, perhaps, Norm is a leftist who truly believes in emancipation of the weak and social justice, instead of just cheerleading for today's left terrorists (Provos, Baader-Meinhof, Red Brigade, "Angry Brigade" - bunch of twats - ETA, Hamas and Hezbollah - not that these two are proper leftists, but they're attractive to leftists, it seems) against an imaginary capitalist conspiracy. Norm is a bright guy, much much brighter than me, and he believes in a better, thoughtful, unprejudiced future. If his posts seem uncritical of Israel that is not the case, but he is extremely critical of leftists who think that the future is to be secured by shacking up with homophobes, religious extremists, borderline racists and, let's be honest here, fascists. There are many sites which are full of unthoughtful leftists, so let's celebrate Normblog, one which unashamedly promotes everything that is brilliant and intelligent (rather than clever) - not least of which is cricket, although his clear Australian sympathies mean he should perhaps be put on trial.

This week was good, we had zone conference so we had to plan it out and get all the pizzas ordered (18) for the conference and it was a pretty edifying conference we talked about investigators coming to church and it was fun. We had to give a ten minute part in the conference and it worked out well, we talked about living the gospel of Jesus Christ and it was pretty good!
It was kind of a week that just blurred together. We visited a lot of district meetings last week to keep them going good. We are working to get our districts excited about the work. We have a few missionaries that are struggling so we have been working specifically with them. I got to go see Vilafranca again as part of our visits to the district meetings, which was good.In our ward here in Hospitalet, we have members from all over the world, but especially from Ecuador. Since Hospitalet is basically part of Barcelona, we use the metro to get around most days, especially since our Piso is not in our area. Our Piso is great – probably the best one I have had since I have been in Spain. Thanks to everyone that has written. It is really nice to hear from each of you.


text: The Observer did not really know Dr. Raymond Miller. But we knew of him, from a variety of ways. First, we knew his wife, Clarice. She was Mrs. Miller to us, one of the favorite teachers at Pulaski Heights Junior High School many moons ago, offering school-day mothering to barely-teen-aged girls in conflict with their own. Dr. Miller died last week of cancer. We learned a lot about him at his funeral. He was born in Cotton Plant 68 years ago to a farmer, graduated from Cotton Plant Vo-Tech, got an agriculture scholarship to Arkansas AM&N, and then decided he wanted to be a doctor. That cost him the scholarship, but he worked in the school cafeteria to get through. He got a degree in biology and went to UAMS. He first met Hoyte Pyle across a cadaver, and the two became close friends. Good enough friends that after graduation and with a few years practice under their belts, Raymond Phillip Miller and Hoyte Remus Pyle decided to go into practice together, with two other internists. Theirs was the first integrated medical practice in Little Rock. Miller "was my mentor," Pyle said. Back in 1974, in the summer after The Observer graduated from college, The Observer's father decided to have a little nap while floating on his back in the swimming pool of his apartment complex. It was the kind of little nap that washes over you in hot August, when you've been sitting in the sun after enjoying an afternoon of libations, which was something The Observer's father did on a regular basis. This time, however, The Observer's father, in full doze, sank like a rock to the bottom of the pool, under the influence and underwater, and lay there until one of the sponges poolside noticed him. An ambulance was called and he was hauled off to St. Vincent, where, by some miracle, he was returned to life. (The ambulance company had a hard time believing it when we called later searching for his dentures. "Excuse me for asking," the lady said, "but why do you need them? Isn't he dead?") So the ER got him back, but not totally out of the woods. His lungs were still swimming and he needed a pulmonologist. His doctor, Drew Agar, came out to us in the hallway and said he wanted to call Raymond Miller in. "Now Alice, he's black," Dr. Agar said, searching my mother's face for a reaction. My mother, the Women's Emergency Committee vet, the mother who let her children plaster the glass panes around our front door with anti-war stickers, who listened to "Hair" and who was never happier in her life than watching Nixon go down — bothered by a black doctor? We all had a laugh. Of course we didn't mind. Good, Dr. Agar said. Because he's the best. The Observer's great-aunt, a lady getting beyond on in years, had a special treat for us last week when we stopped by to visit: a grocery bag full of 15-year-old newspaper clippings she'd found stuffed in the back of a closet. She'd told us about it on the phone — how interesting it was that many of the same things in the news then were still making headlines today. Among the clips she pulled out of the bag: a picture of a triumphant George Bush I and wife Barbara, dressed in desert camo, standing up in a Jeep surrounded by soldiers fresh from their victory over Iraqi forces. (Out of respect for the lady's age, we bit our tongue rather than point out the rather obvious, and unfortunate, ways that Bush's son's Iraq war is different.) There were also several stories documenting the rise in the rate of Arkansas high school graduates who needed remedial classes when they got to college. Our favorite, though, was a column by our own fearless leader, Max Brantley, from his days at the Arkansas Gazette, comparing our governor — then a still unannounced candidate for president making the rounds of politically important northeastern states — to a supermarket tomato: Pretty and red on the outside, rendered all but tasteless on the long trip from vine to produce bin. Plus ça change … The Observer's car-to-office walk takes us past the Second Street courtyard of the Main Library, which is surrounded by a rose-covered black iron fence. In spring, there's nothing prettier — it's a veritable wall of light pink blooms you can hardly even see through. One recent day, though, as we slogged through the thick 100-degree air on our way home, we saw that a single vine had wilted loose of the fence and was sprawled prostrate across the sidewalk. We knew how it felt.

They haven't looked at the embryos again today, but I was able to get more information on what they were going by yesterday. So here's the tally. Where grade 4 is the best and grade 1 is the worst, we have:
1 6-cell grade 3
1 5-cell grade 3
1 5-cell grade 2
2 4-cell grade 3
2 2-cell– not sure what grade those are, but the RE's nurse acted like those probably wouldn't continue to grow. I'm assuming they were 1s.
So we have 5 possible candidates for transfer tomorrow. I wish the quality was a little better, but I've also heard of many IVF pregnancies from lower than grade 4 embryos. The quality of the embryo has no bearing on the health of a resulting child. I'm remaining hopeful. It does make me nervous that we probably won't have anything to freeze, since our clinic only freezes very high quality embryos.
We'll have our transfer at 1 PM tomorrow.

Page... something. [Posted by Layton on April 25th, 2011, 10:32 pm]
So, I'm sure you're all wondering where I've been. Or, I hope you've been wondering!
First off, I owe you an apology! I really should have said something before taking my hiatus. You know, like.. "words of wisdom is on hiatus."
The comic was simply becoming a chore for me, and I dreaded doing it everyday. And something I'm (supposedly) doing for fun should be enjoyable! So for now, Words of Wisdom is on hiatus.
However, after I took my break I found myself slacking in the art department. So I took up a new project called "A Dog A Day". You can find it here, and I hope you'll all continue to follow and support me over on tumblr!
I've also opened an Etsy store selling prints, and if anyone is interested in some W.O.W merchandise, I am so on it.
Thanks for being so great during W.O.W's duration, hopefully later on down the line I can start it up again! <3

I think i'm the only one who actually cares for this
The initials are ADAD and both dog and day have 3 letters so it's like 13 13
i'm such a weirdo xD
[Posted by pwii on April 26th, 2011, 10:36 pm]
You could start updating once a week.
[Posted by Layton on April 26th, 2011, 10:49 pm]
@pwii; I could, but I'd rather not force myself to do something that for the last.. 100 pages I wasn't really enjoying. I'm sure I'll come back to this; I loved the project and the idea of the comic. But right now, it'll remain on hiatus. [:
[Posted by Andore Mordre on May 1st, 2011, 10:21 pm]
Take your time. We all enjoy reading this, and we'll be waiting for your return, but don't force yourself to make a comic you need a break from.
[Posted by Layton on May 11th, 2011, 12:19 am]
@CeramicTile; I was actually unable to log onto bubblesuds for quite some time! D: It insisted I needed a google login. Which I did not have. But I recently got it up and running again, so that will update soon!
[Posted by madnessj on May 20th, 2011, 2:30 pm]
Hey, can you post a link to your Etsy store?

Its a habit for me to have a small dustbin in the car because its much better than cleaning up the floor mats all the time. And not only that, it can also serve as an emergency barf container. A very important feature when the girls were very young and prone to vomiting all over the car.
|So, what do you do when your car' dustbin is full? Compact it, of course!

Now before you totally start thinking that I've switched teams, just let me say I'm not gay.
I've talked about this subject before with others and I just thought it was time to put it out there. (No, it's not "coming out".)
Most men will tell you that they would go and see just about any movie with their favorite hot chick in it. You know I'm right. Just look in the theater at Lindsay Lohan's latest piece of tripe and you'll see guys there, and not just the pussy-whipped ones either.
But what about male movie stars?
I'll be the first to admit, I'm a big Steve McQueen fan. From The Magnificent Seven and The Great Escape to The Thomas Crown Affair, Bullitt, and The Towering Inferno, if Steve was in it, I'd like to see it. Does this mean I have a great appreciation for the man and his work? Yes. Does it mean I'm mooning over 5x10 glossies of him? No.
There are a lot of movies I will see just because a certain actor is in it. Hell, lots of movies I wouldn't even give a flying fuck about, I went and viewed just because someone I liked was in it. I even saw America's Sweethearts. Why? John Cusack. I liked Batman Forever. Why? Val Kilmer.
I'm not ashamed of enjoying these actors in their work, they did a great job in most of their stuff. They've established a track record with me, and I will give them the benefit of the doubt in regards to any role, regardless of how shitty the film may look.
No matter how I may sound when I go on about Val Kilmer in Top Secret! or The Ghost and The Darkness, or the fact that I'll ramble on about Cary Elwes in The Princess Bride, it's just a great appreciation for these men and the fantastic work they've done onscreen.
So show off your Man Crush - don't be embarrassed.
It doesn't mean you take it in the Pooper.

Facade/Death to My Frustrations
I don't know if I should say I'm on my grind or living on a dime.
Every time it's the same old rhyme.
I'm living a lie, no need to cry.
As I fly I die inside knowing the pain inside is spreading like poison, in fact, its mold because I'm old.
I was told by the unforetold that I would be towed by the winds of chance, but as I glance I realize that such words should have been unspoken.
I'm living a lie, no need to cry.
If you die today
No one would care
If I cry today
No one would dare
Ask me if I'm ok
It's funny
Cause they always call me
Trying to fool me
This isn't the cool me
I'm no longer your tool
Hand me the glock, BOOM
Death to my frustrations
I'm in a tornado storm
Of misbehavior
Don't save what cannot be rescued
Hand me the glock, BOOM
Death to all my frustrations
You can no longer rule me
No longer a fool
Throw away the spool
No longer your thread
Go ahead and tread
Stomp the ground
Make all kinds of sounds
You're dead to me
See, I'm flying free

While the term has several meanings, the most frequent usage refers to two or more people exploring whether they are romantically or sexually compatible by participating in dates with the other.
With the use of modern technology, people can date via telephone or computer or meet in person.
The protocols and practices of dating, and the terms used to describe it, vary considerably from country to country and over time. She knows that life doesn't always go as planned and has learned how to make the best of it. Single moms can do it all, but are super-appreciative of a helping hand. She's smart, strong, and beautiful, but also a bit of a mystery. And how do you let her know that you're not just playing games—without getting overly involved too soon? She's no longer a party girl, but a fun night out is still very welcome. Moms make the best lasagna and give the best back rubs. You'll get to take part in adventures to amusement parks, the zoo and the park.

Beware the Christmas spirit
Most people love Christmas. They love giving presents, the food, the family, the time off work, the chance Christmas offers when it comes to that moment of reconciliation. And of course Christmas is great for business. Retailers, Tourism and the hospitality industry thrive this time of year.
Christmas offers a lot, but does it deliver?
You see, I'm one of a minority that has a slight distaste for what Christmas has become.
Busy. Competitive. Over indulgence. Hot. Stressful. Dangerous on the roads.
Before you call me Mr Scrooge, let me elaborate.
Around 1 Billion people live on $1 a day. Over 2 Billion live on $2 a day. Of those people most have no clean drinking water, little food and are subject to malaria, AIDS and other diseases we are not. So many people will starve each day, each MINUTE while we spend ourselves into oblivion and eat to excess and then drink ourselves stupid in the name of Christmas.
May I ask, what is the point? It seems to be an Aussie tradition to turn any public holiday into the chance to over indulge in self gratification and buffonery. Look at Australia Day, Melbourne Cup, ANZAC Day and Christmas. Disgusting, shallow selfish behaviour by a population that shows its true colours from behind a beer bottle and prawn shells.
No, not all people are guilty of this dark and strong worded behaviour. Sadly, suicide is also at high levels this time of year for reasons varied, but loneliness is the big part.
In the face of another spending splurge, can I ask all people who are tired of the growing superficiality of Christmas to give your cash to those who need your help? Spend time feeding the hungry and homeless. Take the time to make someone who has nothing feel alive and loved.
TO me, that is the best gift of all.

Travalo : The World's Favourite Fragrance Spray
Have you ever wished you could have a quick freshen up when you're out and about?
Carrying a big glass perfume or aftershave bottle is inconvenient, cumbersome and can be dangerous if it takes a knock and shatters.
Travalo is a refillable atomizer bottle with a difference. Its patented easy fill system allows you to refill in seconds with a simple repeat pump action. Travalo makes it easy and convenient to have a fresh confidence boost any time, anywhere.
I had previously had the amazing opportunity to review the Travalo Excel in the color of green, you can find the original review here - Travalo Review . I love my Travelo. I do! it has been my number one purse companion since day one. I couldn't go anywhere without it. It has been my hero in the most awkward moments since we became BFF's. I hate to stink. I do. I personally don't know anyone that does. Okay, I take that back maybe a few people. Maybe I should get them a travalo. Hmm. My husband see me whipping my travalo out of my purse to refill it with my perfume, and he gave me a strange look and said.. What's that?.. I said my travalo. He then said looks cool, what is it. I said it's my travalo, it's my purse buddy, he then begin to snicker and said, okay. I said you know all those times that you got close and said, you smell good, or that one time the wind was blowing and you said you could smell my perfume in my hair. Well you can thank my Travalo for those smell good moments. He said .. Well thank you magic little perfume sprayer. I shook my head and said, I'm going to have to get you a travalo. I know you like smelling good just as much as I do and I can't exactly lug your heavy breakable cologne bottles around in my purse. A week later, I was asked to review the Travalo Elite in gold.

Save Malaysia Committee
B-6 Taman Tunas Manja,
Jalan Air Putih, 25300 Kuantan.
Pahang Darul Makmur.
Date: 20/05/2011
Your Excellency
We the residents of Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia are extremely concerned over the proposed construction and operation of the above plant.
It is common knowledge that :
1) LAMP will be processing rare earths oxide which contains Thorium
2) Thorium is a known radioactive material.
3) The mineral monazite which contains the Thorium is mined at Mount Weld in Western Australia and will be shipped to Kuantan, through Freemantle Port for processing at LAMP.
As your country is the originator of this dangerous material it is only right that your country must take responsibility for its presence here in this country.
We are not convinced by the assurances of LAMP, (and others allied to their cause), that the LAMP is safe. If it truly were so, surely then your country should readily keep that industry within its borders, or at the very least, be prepared to take back the waste ( which contains the deadly thorium). But your country has flatly refused to take back their own waste.
Source The Star: 12/04/2011, Pg. N.23
Malaysians have had experience with Thorium, in the Bukit Merah plant in Ipoh, Perak. The consequences of that fiasco are still continuing. Children born deformed or retarded are still alive but unable to articulate their plight while some have lost their lives to cancer.
LAMP claims that their plant is totally different from that of Bukit Merah facility and that the levels of radioactivity is very low. But we remain unconvinced, nor are we prepared to experiment with our health and lives and those of our future generations.
We the residents of Kuantan, appeal to your higher values and call upon you , to do all that you can, to stop the shipment of this Thorium containing material from your country.
Surely, your country being a respectable member of the international community would not allow an International Convention to be flouted or circumvented.
Your Excellency, we the people of Kuantan do not want, in our midst LAMP and for that matter any other company that produces any form of radioactive material.
Your Excellency, does it not seem unconscionable to you that ore containing this radioactive material should be shipped 4000km from your country to Malaysia for the monetary gain of LAMP while the people of Kuantan are left to face the long term effects of the obnoxious waste?
This Thorium waste, as your Excellency would already know, is radioactive and has a ½ life of 14 billion years. Thus, for generations to come , we the people of Malaysia will be exposed to the risks of radioactive contaminations.
Your Excellency, this Movement, is inspired by the most lofty ideals- that of human lives and health. We are resolved to continue our struggle to safeguard our air, water and soil from LAMP's (and others') deadly wastes. The vast majority of Malaysians share our mission. We again exhort you, to do all that you can, within your power to stop the dangerous ore from leaving your own shores.
We trust you understand and share our concerns. Many Australians in fact, already do, as the Internet reveals.
Mr Robin Chapple, MLC, Member for the Mining and Pastoral Region is "deeply worried" as expressed in his media release dated 13/04/2011.
I annex a copy of the release downloaded from the internet, for your further reading.
I trust that you will act as a good citizen of the world, and of Australia in particular.
Yours sincerely,
Vincent Jiam (Hand phone: 016 931 8081)
Chairperson, Save Malaysia Committee

Essential Oil Safety for New Essential Oil Users
New to essential oils and want to make sure you proceed with caution? We've got you covered with a few, easy basics to start you down the right path!
--First and very important…never use essential oils in your mouth, up your nose, in your ear canal, or on sensitive body parts. In case of accidental eye contact, DO NOT flush eyes with water. Flush with milk or cream first until the eyes stop burning and then you can flush the eyes with water to remove the milk.
--For safety reasons and for best results, you should dilute essential oils. Pure essential oils are concentrated so begin with small amounts and find what works best for you. Do a patch test first to check for skin irritation.
--To dilute essential oil, mix it with a carrier oil and then apply. Carrier oils are fatty oils that slow absorption and help carry essential oils onto the skin, allowing for even application. Examples of carrier oils are coconut, olive, jojoba or almond oil. There are dilution charts you can reference if you are uncertain where to start.
--If you have discomfort after applying an essential oil, apply more carrier oil right away and DO NOT flush with water.
--Always keep essential oils out of reach of animals and children. If you have a medical condition or are pregnant or nursing, always consult a medical professional before using essential oils.
--Essential oils are highly flammable. Never put them in direct contact with flames.
--When using citrus oils or other photosensitive essential oils, avoid direct sunlight and/or tanning beds for at least 12-24 hours, if not longer.
--Use caution and heavy dilution when using Oregano, Clove, Cinnamon, Thyme and Cassia essential oils. They can cause discomfort, blistering and/or feel hot on your skin. Do not use on sensitive or broken skin. Other oils that can cause discomfort are Peppermint, Fennel, Black Pepper, Eucalyptus, Ginger, Lemongrass, Wintergreen, and Citrus Oils.
--And finally, a few other helpful tips: Always use glass when working with essential oils. Do not use plastic or styrofoam cups, as they will melt. When handling essential oils, do not touch your nail polish or your computer or cellphone keypads. The essential oils will erase the paint.

Evil Calamity for the Jews? Bush or Kerry?
Over at YudelLine Yudel recounts the words of an anonymous poster commenting on this post at Bloghead:
"Bush is a moron, his father was a moron but the alternative is an evil calamity, to Jews most of all."I think Yudel's response is important enough to repost here in full:
"The alternative is an 'evil calamity'?A heart 'yasher koach!' to Yudel, I couldn't have said it better if I tried.
You mean, he'll attack the weakest of Israel's strategic enemies at the behest of the strongest?
You mean, he'll reveal the limits of an army based on expensive weapon contracts rather than troops, training, and supplies, and thereby weaken the image of the U.S. in the Middle East?
You mean, he'll make the creation of a Palestinian state an American policy for the first time?
You mean, he'll create one or two new Islamicist countries where a secular dictatorship used to be?
You mean, he'll alienate Israel's staunchest regional ally (Turkey)?
You mean, he'll grant al-Qaeda a strategic victory by withdrawing troops from Saudi Arabia?
You mean, he'll strengthen the Arab world by encouraging American fuel consumption?
You mean, he'll threaten to cut aid to Israel over a minor political dispute?
You mean, he'll blur the threat from jihadist organizations and divert focus to more politically convenient enemies?
You mean, he'll undertake the sort of populist fiscal policies (tax cuts and benefit increases) that put the new into the New Israeli Shekel back in the '80s -- with serious consequences for anyone whose livelihood, assets or aid packages are denominated in dollars?
You mean, he'll loudly promise to take unprecedently pro-Israel positions (e.g. move the embassy to Jerusalem) and then go back on his word time and time again?
You mean, he would put political correctness ahead of pragmatism and allow an unstable dictatorship to acquire nuclear weapons?
You mean, he would allow the director of a muslim state's "rogue" nuclear development program to be "punished" but then immediately pardoned?
That would indeed describe an "evil calamity", and "to Jews most of all."
Alas, that describes the incumbent. Sometimes, you know, you have to look beyond the mangled, well-meaning words to see the actual deeds."

(we'll keep this short & sweet)
"...whatever you do, do all to the glory of God."
– 1 Corinthians 10:31
I've lived in Colorado for five years now and have had a different home for each of those years. But with every place I've lived, I have learned in increasing measure just how important it is for me to be purposeful about my living space. My home, rented room, apartment, or dorm room was always the place of refuge that I could come home to and either settle in with peace, order, and inspiration, or drop my things to the floor and look around at the chaos that awaited me.
Now that I am settled in my dorm room here at Ellerslie, I've once again learned to purpose my organization for the life God has called me to here. From the day I moved in, I dedicated this sacred space to the Lord and prayed that it would always be a sanctuary for worship and intimacy with Him and a place of rest. And God has given me all that I've asked of Him. I'm delighted to invite you in for a visit and hope that in the process you may find some pockets of inspiration to use in your own life and living space!
Whether you have your own house or only a tiny bedroom to call your own, the state of your living space will directly influence whether you thrive or merely survive from day to day.
I take 10 minutes to tidy up my room before bed. Mornings come early here at Ellerslie, and there's no better feeling than waking up to a clean and "ready" room. If everything is in its place, then it warmly invites me to leave my cozy bed and take on the day. But if there are a hundred messes and distractions when I open my eyes, I find it so much more difficult to say "no" to an extra hour of sleep (which inevitably sends my day into the dreaded "catch up mode").
I set out my clothes the night before. I find there's nothing more frustrating than losing time in my morning trying to decide what to wear. The pants for that top are dirty. I could wear this dress but it needs to be ironed. Where on earth did those shoes go? Setting out my clothes the night before will keep any of these frustrations and time-wasters out of my morning, keeping time in its proper place and giving more time for stillness with Jesus – the truest preparation for a day.
I prepare my place of worship and study. Mornings are one of the sweetest, stillest parts of the day, and meant to be spent for my King Jesus. But if my desk is cluttered and stacked a mile high with papers, notes, and such, it's like seeking to have a quiet and intimate talk with my groom only to find myself in a train station of noise, countless distractions, and people tugging at my sleeve. So, along with tidying my room at night, I clear away the day's papers and piles, and set my Bible, journal, and study books out, ready to be cracked open at dawn. (I also keep my email program closed down and on silent so that I'm not tempted to check it in the middle of my quiet time.)
Walls can present a beautiful opportunity to inspire, encourage, and edify our walks with Christ. Rather than focus only on what's beautiful, I try to weave these elements into my wall art. Here are some of the ways I do this:
Frame Truth . A couple years back I made collages combining some of my favorite quotes with some of my favorite photos. The result was a set-apart gallery that not only makes me smile, but serves as a daily reminder of my calling as a woman of God. These three happen to highlight "Sacred Honor," "Set-Apart," and "Sacred Claim."
Photo Gallery. The frames on my wall hold photos of those near and dear, serving as reminders to pray for them. I have my parents and brother, close kindred friends, the children in my life, and one of a missionary friend, Danita, holding a small Haitian baby girl. They're hung all around a tack board where I can hang scripture verses, inspiring quotes, or the traced hands of lil' Harper Grace Ludy.
Other Ideas. You could also hang up a world map, posting reminders about the persecuted church or missionaries you may know or support. I know a set-apart girl who created a prayer gallery posting small photos of all the people she wants to faithfully remember in prayer.
In order to thrive in my busy schedule of personal spiritual growth, teaching at Ellerslie, design work, our online magazine, video production, website management, taking care of kiddos, and investing in relationships, I must have order. I've known all too well what can cause stress and stir up frustration, so to walk in obedience, I've cultivated disciplines that help guard against opportunities to be frustrated or stressed. Here are some things I have learned and put into practice:
Catch it All . Sometimes I just can't keep up with everything, so rather than allow piles all over my room, I have a "catch all" basket – neatly contained and hidden in the shelves of my desk. Then every weekend I can go through it and file, respond, sort, or toss. Without this basket, my desk quickly becomes one big pile of distraction; but with it, I can keep moving ahead with things of importance without losing focus or feeling crowded by clutter.
Ready to Thank. I love stationery and treasure a well-written, time-invested letter, but I've learned that if I don't have things handy, I quickly forget about the art of thank you notes and encouraging letters. Both gratitude and encouragement are marks of the believer. So, to remind myself of this discipline and act of love, I have a couple boxes of stationery sweetly displayed right on my desk. When I think of someone I need to thank or encourage, I can grab a note and write it that very moment.
Separate Spaces . Living on campus here at Ellerslie, it's very easy to "take my work home with me." If I allow the habit to form of working at the desk in my room, then when I go to have a quiet time in the same place, my thoughts can easily drift off to the pressing work that lies ahead that day. So, I strive to keep my work in the office and use my desk only for personal study, personal correspondence, and quiet times.
There are so many ways that you can use your space to bless others (for great tips on hospitality, see Leslie's article in this issue!) and honor the Lord. Ask Him where your weak points of discipline are. Are you always rushed in the morning? Are you unorganized for your personal quiet time or do have no place set aside just to be with Him? Are you easily distracted by people or papers strewn about? Do you have trouble finding things? Take the necessary steps to serve with honor, discipline, and an undivided heart. With a little effort and planning, and a season putting it into practice, you can develop habits that will simply become a natural outflow of your life. The purpose of your place puts priority on clearing out distractions, staving off frustration, and redeeming your time. It's not just so others can "ooh" and "ahh" over a snappy room and your divine organizational skills, but so they may see a life ordered, disciplined, and freed up to spend itself for what truly matters.*

I'm pretty sure that will be a question I'll have in the future, because I'm thinking we created a memory today.
We're having a ridiculously big snow storm (blizzard, actually--it's official!) that is showing no signs of stopping anytime soon. It started around 8 p.m. last night and has snowed continuously all day. The weather is saying it won't end until tomorrow morning...craziness!
Anyway, it's way too windy and deep to go outside and play. Plus, Caleb hates snow. Feel free to admire these pitiful shots taken during last year's snow storm!
I got a bucket and filled it with snow off of our porch, then laid down some towels in the kitchen and let the boy go to town. We built a snowman, and then he played for a really long time just like he would in a sand box. The boy was in heaven...he got to build a snowman and stay warm!
We did a few science experiments too (gotta keep it educational!). We put snow in a cup to see what would happen to it (It melted! Amazing!) Then we poured it out into the snow and it created a small hole in the hole. I then suggested we try to see what would happen if we poured hot water out into the snow....it created a big hole!! I love the wonderment of a 2 year old. Everything is just so amazing to him. :)
So, let it snow...inside and out!

A scenario i can imagine being replicated in homes all over the island.
I got up, showered, and stepped out of the house. I am now at Chaplaincy, just out side the chapel door. and I promise you all, sitting in the shade, with a bit of a breeze, looking at the glorious day, other people around also studying, really helped...finished another chapter since i got here....
so, those finding it difficult, get outside, keep in the shade, the sun is too hot, and try study seeing God's awesome nature around you.
c'est tout.

Watch this.
Wha??? Now watch it again.
That's just your typical Santi Cazorla to Jack Wilshere to Cazorla to Oliver Giroud to Wilshere to Giroud to Wilshere goal from Arsenal's EPL match this weekend against Norwich City.
Six seconds, six passes, one goal that barely makes sense even after you've watched it a hundred times.
The only way to celebrate, obviously, was for Giroud and Wilshere to slide around in such a manner that it appeared as though they were driving tiny cars.
Hugs for everyone.
"It's what you dream," said coach Arsene Wegner of the goal, poetically.
Arsenal plays Tuesday against Borussia Dortmund in a huge Champions League matchup at 2:45 p.m. ET. They couldn't go in on a much higher note than this.

Not for a rest but to give my superheated brake discs a rest and a cool down. I've had brake fade' before and its not funny….
We hole up for two days out in the sticks next to some big lakes at Bolzano and break out the walking boots for some much needed exercise..
What a view!
The Südtirol region is stunning with a never ending run of vineyards flanked by mountains and forests
Walkers memorial?
The idea of a circular walk ended with us turning around here in the next valley, steep descents and equally steep ascents on the way back in unchartered territory seemed a bridge too far today
That common sense thing again, worrying isn't it?
We make it back to the van and Nina sets about finishing another mini project
The weather turns for the worse as we arrive at a nice two night halt at Brentino amidst the vineyards
A pleasant walk down the local cycle route next day to stretch our legs
'Sleazy' tractors?
The sun comes out as does Max and we are off to Tripadvisor's best local choice for Pizza
Followed by the all essential Tiramisu which was divine BTW

So where the bloody hell did my week go? Moderating that's where, look the word up in the dictionary and you will find it is also commonly known as migraine. For where a moderator goes a migraine is sure to follow. A years work judged in a few short hours. But it is over for another year. Now I just have to display the work, accept the plaudits and move on.
I also had the privilege of filling a 6 yard skip with the contents of our driveway. Oh lucky, lucky me. Emin helped of course but oh, did I ache, really really ache. Add to that heady mix of stress and strain one of those 'where is this relationship going' heated debates and my cup runeth over with joy.
This relationship is in essence over, but of course the tangled web of finances mean we are inextricably linked at least for the next 4 bloody years. Then I have promised my self I MUST take my leave. So we live in a kind of weird limbo, I say little, he just bitches along in his mindless juvenile way.
So now we have THREE unfinished projects to walk around.
I have come to the conclusion that the death knell to any relationship is the 'working from home syndrome' I feel sure we could have limped on if he was not in my face 24/7. Such is life, it is just a shame it is mine.
If anyone is in London for the next couple of months promise me faithfully you will go and see A Winters Tale currently on at the Old Vic. It is AWESOME. Seriously, just brilliant. Inspired direction and interpretation and Ethan Hawke hamming it up as a strolling Bob Dylanesque minstrel is a hoot. It is moments like that, that make life worth living, (if that does not sound a shade too maudlin.)
Tomorrow I am going to the V&A for a school trip and next week the NPG so you see it is not all bad. Then before long Alls Well That Ends Well at the National. Yep I am a bit of a Shakespeare junkie at the moment.
Right now I am basking in an unexpected gift of peace. Lelya is at Tai Kwando and for some weird reason Kitty went to watch, Daisy is still at school and Emin oh joy, is actually on site working, hark the sound of a glass of Rose port being poured, sounds odd but I bet it will taste divine.
Now to catch up with all those blogs.
