Jilly - your plans for the grave sound quite wonderful and meaningful. It is not weird at all - it is a perfect memorial for him.

I agree Lisa, Jilly, it's amazing and wonderful that you opened your heart and allowed love. Your ideas are beautiful.

You know, I believe over on the paranormal forum there is a new thread about sensing beloved pets who have passed.

My daughter just two Saturdays ago lost her beloved little rat. She has been dreaming about him and it has helped her so much.

(((hugs)))

Today I didn't get to bed until 8am or so and woke up at about 5pm. So most of the day was spent sleeping. Bob was worn down too and didn't go riding the motorcycle like he was going to, and we didn't get to the health club to officially join. So we didn't make progress in a lot of areas.

But, that being said, I just finalized a block of Mused content (letters to the editor, that sort of stuff) so that is all good and handed over to Diane. I just have two interviews to finalize and the content is all done. So that is all very good.

My office is full of little piles of things that need to be filed or mailed. So I think a good task for today will be to get through a lot of this stuff so my office is clean again and I can focus better on my computer related tasks.

Today, I'm looking forward to celebrating my daughter's 22nd birthday! Yay! She wants to go out for fresh oysters--her favorite. We got her tickets to see Gabriel Iglesias in concert. He is one of her favorite comedians, next to Jim Gaffigan.

She has headaches and struggles with her condition all the time and it's hard to keep her happy. But today, I am going to bake her a cake and take her out for some fun.

Today I am looking forward to working more on my vision board, and hopefully taking my mom home from the hospital (she has a urinary tract infection).

Looking forward to coffee in about 30 minutes with a friend.

Chi - I hope you guys had a wonderful time!

Deanna - we'd love to see your vision-board-in-progress!

Today I did work on the Green Team, which I enjoy greatly, as well as some much needed house cleaning. I also posted a few reviews. One was for a book I *strongly* disliked so I am wondering if the authors will get upset about what I posted. They put it up in my Vine area so in a way it's their own fault I got it to review it, but still, authors rarely enjoy bad reviews.

Lisa, I admire you for sticking with a book you strongly disliked! Normally, if a book doesn't grab me in the first three chapters, I just put it down - though generally that's simple indifference. I think if I strongly disagreed with its message, I may want to stick it out just to give out a review to my readers.

Today I'm looking forward to practicing two of my new songs with my son (the drummer). We are performing next Saturday!

I'll take a pic of my vision board, and post it

Today I am relaxing in celebration that my other kitten, John Crichton, is okay. So to relax i am forum posting. Then I will do some reading with my legs up the wall (a yoga pose), and then watch some Farscape episodes. I am doing yoga toes right now, in fact. A great Sunday!

Deanna - can't wait to see your board! I love seeing how people do them.

Lisa, I read your review and that book sounds horrible!Holy moly. The other reviews are five stars a piece, so actually that has me worried. Are other people not seeing what you are seeing?

Jilly, it's wonderful that even whilst dealing with death you are seeing things to look forward to. (JOY)
