Remember that rule in physics that says that gas expands to fill a vacuum? It occurs to me that a chock-full to-do list does the same thing.
I am spending far too much time wrestling with whether sunflowers or gerbera daisies are the happier of flowers. So much so, in fact, I am starting to believe that my tenacity in trying to resolve this dilemma is just my new way of procrastinating.
(Which, now that I think about it, might be the cause of my to-do list ever-expanding to fill the vacuum of my day.)
When I ate meat, I was of the firm belief that bacon made everything better. Now that I don't eat meat, I have made another discovery: whipped cream actually makes everything better. Seriously. Try it on apple slices.
Yesterday, I ran by my post office box to pick up the photographs I'd ordered for the photo drive, and discovered a considerable stack of photos that many of you had already sent me. You're awesome. Please keep them coming -- we have about 500 children to make happy.
Song: For something rather astonishingly calming and meditative to end your week, I thought I'd share this video, even though it makes me miss scuba diving terribly. I'm told the song is Please don't go by Barcelona.

Gosh, I love that video. Wonderful.
whipped cream totally makes everything better. I wish I had some on hand.
I don't think I could decide between them. both gerbera daisies and sunflowers make me very very happy..
I could watch this video all day.
When I have a craving for fried chicken, I go to the tofu place and get fried mushroom tofu. It's better then fried chicken.
Mmmm... whipped cream. And bacon! (though not together, I think.)
Have you tried Bacon Salt? Vegetarian, yet tastes like bacon.
I have often considered becoming a vegetarian - but I don't know that I could give up bacon or pork chops.....or even cook a meal without meat in it. I try to cook meat-free for my family several times a week and it is tricky for me - I admre that you (and others) are able to do it!
I found that video a few weeks ago searching for a video of an aquarium to show my son - such a soothing video and I love the song.
gerbera daisy is my choice
isn't this video awesome. so quiet and inspiring.
