March 23, 2015 Monday

Yoga -- Everyone is doing it.  Don't talk yourself out of it, get a video or join a class.  No one starts out being good at it, and it isn't a competition.  You begin trying to achieve a position to the best of your ability and get better as you go.  I have never taken a class, I should after doing the videos for 20 years.  I think yoga and pilates are my favorites.  The stretch, balance and agility are so worth trying.


Ephesians chapter 6:18 - This is about praying.  Prayer is simply talking to God.  Pour out your heart, ask for help.  Pray for yourself and pray for others.  Be diligent. Pray.  God is listening. 


On this day;
1980 - I came home from my ex-husbands home after a get together of all our old friends from the 60's.  It was fun but I got home to my latest ex of the 70's asking where I had been.  I try to never question the drama young women are going through on social media - I wrote the book.


1839 - The first recorded printed use of "OK" [oll korrect] occurred in Boston's Morning Post. Always wondered where this abbreviation came from, is that German? 

Parenting - Parents can leave a legacy of good in their offspring. I went to a funeral/celebration of life of a woman who was 99, and was described as a prayer warrior.  Her request for her funeral was "don't make it about me".  She was a faithful servant of the Lord and wanted all praise to His name, not hers.  Her daughter Sue is the same, not because Mom shaped her to be, but because it was too good a roll model to not follow.  Prayer warrior, wonderful.


Come Get These Memories - of the Sixties (excerpt)


     The basement was semi-finished, with red and white check tiles on the floor that even had a shuffle- board printed on them.  Dad had gotten a full size standard pool table that took up a good portion of one section, but there was an ell shape at the end of the room with a real fireplace and a few second hand couches in front of it.  There was still room at the side for my brother Adam and his friends to set up their instruments for the band they played in. Dad also had a workroom in the middle and the other end was the laundry and a half bath.  It was a great basement that saw a lot of action, but not for Dad.
