Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: LilyFestre Date: 19 Apr 05 - 01:28 PM It's a beautiful day outside and the mud has finally all dried up. I spent the last few hours outside cleaning up and getting ready for warmer weather...worked hard...can feel it in my muscles and bones...feels good! I also can feel the familiar shakes coming on from a low blood sugar which means my body really was working hard. I got a lot accomplished and after some juice, I'm headed back out! :) ML |

Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: LilyFestre Date: 20 Apr 05 - 10:17 AM 1. It's ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY outside! 2. I finished another paper...one step closer to being done! 3. My professor lost one of my reports but *because I'm smart..LOL* I had saved it! (Don't laugh..there have been occassions when....). 4. Tried Kava tea this morning and found that I LOVE IT! 5. I have had a productive morning...made a nice breakfast, packed my honey a nice lunch, did the dishes, got two loads of laundry done, made an appointment for the dog to be groomed, packed up a box for Veronica, moved all the flats of seedlings outside for the day and there's more...but this is where I'll stop. :) Busy Busy Busy 6. Oh yeah, can't forget, talked AGAIN to an old high school friend for about an hour and a half. He's coming home to visit...can't wait to see him! :) ML |

Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: Gervase Date: 27 Apr 05 - 10:11 AM ..we've only got another four lambs to come and the weather's warmer, so they can stay out on the pasture; because I've nearly finished my sodding essay on feminism and because the Land Rover didn't need a new gearbox, just a flush and a fill with proper gunk. |
Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: ranger1 Date: 27 Apr 05 - 10:54 AM I got what feels like an extra day off from work this week, due to changing schedules and a bizarre pay wek that runs Sun. to Sat. I decided to take it today, because it's raining cat and dogs out. It's also the Curly-haired One's day off, as well. The only drawback is that due to the rain, Jason's little brother Ben's baseball game will be cancelled. But every cloud has a silver lining, all the rain will lower the fire danger hereabouts and we no longer have to worry about a carelessly dropped cigarette burning down thee whole park. The osprey have been mating this week, the red maples (Acer rubrum) are all in bloom, the trout lily leaves are up, and the mayflowers should bud soon. I love spring!!!!! |

Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: wysiwyg Date: 27 Apr 05 - 06:26 PM ... I'm making fast progress on projects that have been ripening in the back of my mind for some time.... ... and because I figured out some really cool stuff to do, next, with a group I lead, that I think will bear a lot of good fruit.... ... and because I am feeling better and better about a leadership commitment I dumped (giving them lots of advance notice that their "expense" reimbursement plan was insufficent to get me there), on account of the "opportunity" was offered in the wrong way for the wrong reasons at the wrong time by the wrong program with the wrong inducements... ... and because after I did that, I got a better invitation that I am now free to accept and from which I can learn and share MUCH more! ~Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: LilyFestre Date: 03 May 05 - 07:36 PM Good things about today.... 1. My semester is officially finished..no more projects or exams! 2. I played my violin in our old stone church for about 3 hours. While I was there, the priest was called away and I was there alone so I played my guts out. I had some unexpected visitors who snuck into the church who requested I play more while there were there and I did. :) Michelle |

Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: ranger1 Date: 06 May 05 - 07:28 PM Last night I got to see my 15 year old niece in Godspell. I spent 7 hours on the road to see it, but boy was it worth it! I got home about 2:15 AM and had to be at work at 8:30 to give nature walks to a group of school kids. I'll admit to not having been looking forward to it, but it was possibly the best group of kids I've had in the 18 years I've been a ranger. They were a class of 3rd graders from inland quite a ways. They were polite, respectful, attentive, and bright. And very enthusiastic. What a great day! Oh, and the trailing arbutus (AKA mayflower) is in full bloom. Now it's really spring. |

Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: LilyFestre Date: 11 May 05 - 07:31 PM Today is a good day because while I was sitting here at my computer, actually in MudChat, I heard these tiny little squeaks...it finally dawned on me that our cat, Miss Millie must have had her kittens! It took me about 15 minutes to find them, but so far, there are 3 absolutely precious little gray tiger kittens that have joined our family. They are good size and Miss Millie is looking well although I have a feeling she is not finished just yet. :) Michelle |

Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: LilyFestre Date: 23 May 05 - 12:09 AM Today is a good day because I had fun outside chasing and catching chickens! We had gone out for a bit and came home to find a chicken...2 chickens...OMG....why is half the flock of chickens running around the front yard? Ok...hole in the fence. Oh no...chicken feathers everywhere and the damned fox was about to get another one. We startled the fox, the chicken got away and we spent the next hour or so catching chickens...always fun to do in the daylight! LOL...my husband chased them one way and I chased them another....we laughed ALOT! Our nearest neighbor's sheep have started giving birth. She has several fields but the one closest to our house is full of baby lambs...they are SO SWEET! I absolutely LOVE to watch the lambs run! Or should that be, try to run?!?!? :) Yesterday was pretty stellar too. A client of mine, who I was involved with when he was 8 years old identified himself to me in church. I had no idea who he was but he knew my name. The minute he told me his first name, I knew immediately who he was. He is now 19 years old!!!! Man...I feel old...but what a wonderful feeling to know that he remembered me. I certainly remember him....his looks have changed (no more pudgy cheeks, new glasses) but the smile is the same....as is the sparkle in his eyes. Yep...that kid made my day! Michelle |
Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: Diva Date: 23 May 05 - 02:56 AM me and my sweetie are off to Corfu....got my books and going to revise for my exam the day after we come back!!!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Today Is A Good Day Because...... From: LilyFestre Date: 28 May 05 - 11:19 AM A little over 2 weeks ago, one of our cats had kittens, 3 of them! Their eyes are now open but in the last two days, we noticed that 2 of the kittens have one eye glued shut and the poor third kitten's eyes were both glued shut. I am happy to say that I tried an old home remedy that was suggested to me of warming milk and soaking a tea bag in the milk, squeeze some of the milk out and apply the bag to the kittens eyes. I had tried warm water but it didn't touch it. The tea bag soaked in warm milk worked GREAT! All 3 sets of little blue eyes are peeking about and I am most happy! :) Michelle |
