once you have tasted flight.......

Sonoma County Fair 7.28.11

When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return. ~Leonardo Da Vinci

being effective

If you think you are too small to be effective, you have never been in bed with a mosquito. ~Betty Reese

Just something to make you think a little bit on this warm night.

Just a little thougth to chew on....and on and on, I know I am.
Hanging in there and just trying to get by these days!
Happy Week Peeps!

good to be geek

So one of my favorite things about new car is XM radio. You can always find something to listen to, funny jokes, the daily events and I have even been known to rock out for a few moments on to the 80's on 8 or the 90's on 9. But my son has found his favorite place, Radio Disney, now I can enjoy some bubble gum pop as much as the next parent. And lately there has been the new song by the cast of Glee, "Loser like me" playing a lot.
Just go ahead and hate on me and run your mouth……So everyone can hear Hit me with the worst you got and knock me down….Baby, I don't care ......Keep it up, and soon enough you'll figure out…You wanna be (You wanna be) A loser like me (A loser like me) Well I was actually listening to the lyrics and I have to say, I like that little message. That song makes me realize you are not alone and for as much as people tell you they don't like you or the things you do, well that is just their issue. There are a lot of people out there who just hate on people because they can. I am not going to label it, just going to keep on being a loser like me.
And know that I am totally happy with what my life has given me.

in the beginning

“In the beginning there was no baseball, but ever since there have been few beginnings as good as the start of a new baseball season"

In honor of the SF opening day, I figured I should share one of my shots from Spring Training last month. We traveled to Scottsdale, which is a great time, but we hit a little rain and only got to see a game and a 1/3rd, but it was fun anyway.

Here is Timmy, looking like the "BIG TIME TIMMY JIM" we all know. Here is to opening day and the boys of summer, may the torture continue in a good way!

friends

Had lunch with a good friend, it has been too many days, weeks, even months, but it was like we never missed a beat. Real friends are such a treasure. Been thinking a lot about one of my dearest friends, going to stop thinking and pick up the phone. I think a lunch date is in order.

reminder....

Frost 1/10/11

“Winter must be cold for those with no warm memories”

Someone reminded me that I had not posted anything since they signed up on here, so here I am posting. Somedays we get so busy we forget to take moments to do something for ourselves or do something that makes us happy. So the batteries are charging in the cameras, the computer is ready to edit when needed. And me....... I am going to try to find time to be here a little more.

Thanks for the reminder, you are a wonderful friend for doing so, it was just the nudge I needed.
