Favorite #1 — The Law of Attraction is big these days, and I can definitely subscribe to some of the tenets. Nevertheless, I can’t help but to know that the proverb that the principle most subscribes [...]
Some Balance Please?
Thursday, February 8th, 2007Since I’ve begun blogging I’ve been hearing alot about the Law of Attraction. And Oprah featured the movie “The Secret” today (2/8/07) on her show, featuring the Law of Attraction. According to this principle (from Oprah.com),
“…we create our own circumstances by the choices we make in life. And the choices we make are fueled by [...]
Who’s Listening To The Men?
Wednesday, February 7th, 2007I confess that I don’t always understand my husband very well, even after almost six years of marriage. It has been difficult at times, but his graciousness, warmth, love, compassion, strength, determination, and passion cannot be matched, at least in my book. I read a poem today by Nikki Giovanni in her new book, Acolytes: Poems, entitled [...]

I’m Making Good Choices!!!
Saturday, February 3rd, 2007It was time for my daughter to go night-night. I love to read to her, and she loves books, so when it’s getting past her bedtime, I tell her, “You can choose one book.” So she chose one of my favorites, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Because it’s one of my favorites, I said, “Good choice, A.!” She [...]
Five Favorites For Friday - February 2, 2007
Friday, February 2nd, 2007Here they are…Enjoy!
One of the best things about doing a weekly favorites post is that you get to read posts that you would have loved to write yourself, but didn’t have the time to get to. This week, the paparazzi took a picture of Tyra Banks in a bathing suit looking a little heavier than she did when she was on [...]

One of those pieces of advice arrived today in my BlogLines account from Daniel at Daily Blog Tips entitled “Write Monthly Roundups.” Daniel states:
