Well, I woke up this morning and checked TUG..... (it's an addiction) and felt some dis-ease in a chakra; somewhere between my solar-plexus and my throat: too much negativity have I shared. So.... I'm going to make a positive influence on my day and hopefully the day of others.

A positive morning thought can take root in our fresh, rested and open minds. It can make a our day and our lives more positive. I'll share one a day for a week. Feel free to comment or cite what positive moment you felt or created during your day. Please, no Stuart Smalley jokes....enjoy! :eek:

The sun's out, tomorrow it's going to be 70 degrees up here in the Boston area, and Don has returned from his two-year India adventure. Life is pretty darn good today. :)

Oh yes....right forum. Positive posts and good thoughts. Good Karma day... Besides, I got banned from the woodworking forum.... (jk)

Congrats SueDonJ: Should be some great India stories. I've heard some amazing tales from a friend who surfed couches across India.

cheers!

Perfect beach day for a bike ride in sunny SoCal, 66 in HB and clear all the way to Catalina.

Attended a funeral today for 92 year old relative-my husband's uncle who was also my best friend's father. He was always laid back and happy in his life. Never said a bad thing about anyone. We joked he was like Mr. Magoo. The world could be collapsing around him and he was never bothered by anything.

The nice thing was that today I got to connect with relatives and friends I never see (some only on Facebook) and it was such a wonderful feeling. :)

It was a warm (72 degrees) and sunny day today. No coat. Clear air. If you have to be in and out all day in March ... this was a GREAT DAY for the weather.

A woman went into my father’s insurance office with her newborn twins. Dad asked her if she’d ever had any trouble telling them apart.
She said, “No, I haven’t had any problem. This is Benjamin, and this is Elizabeth.”

DRI: The Point at Poipu, 3 deeded weeks, 1 of which is in The Club.
Yesterday, after a long vacation, our granddaughters (21, 12, and 9) and their mom came over to visit. They were all talking at once and it reminded us how we missed the commotion they tend to create. It's never boring when they're around.

We discovered the moment our last bird left the nest: holidays are for kids....and kinda lonely without them.....

We do holidays for the dogs now!

They still come home for the holidays right now. But, we are thinking about Christmas in Hawaii or Thanksgiving in the islands for a change with the whole family... I like your idea though

Harder one today; more for some than others....or so it would seem! (thanks for the reminder Tia)

[FONT=&quot]4. I get to choose how my day unfolds.[/FONT]


[FONT=&quot]We [/FONT]don't always get to choose our daily schedule....but we do get to choose how we view our day.... negative thoughts, dread and loathing set the tone to ruin what could be a productive and satisfying day. I choose to do my job, enjoy my freedom and prosperity and remind others that I appreciate what they do for me. There are so many that have so much less to be grateful for than I. [FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I will make positive choices and enjoy the wonderful spring--despite my work! :hi:

Perhaps you believe in karmic reincarnation? That our souls are reincarnated into other lives over and over until we learn what we didn't in past lives? An over simplification to be sure, but it does help explain 'old souls'. Reincarnation resonates with my son and I.

What we/I need is to find more simple joys.
Life is too 'complexicated'; maybe even a great timeshare exchange is not simple enough :ignore:

i was glad today to see for first time this year, how much my peonies have emerged out of the ground.

I'm not sure whether I believe in reincarnation..... (too close to religion for the forum I bet...) but I do believe in karma or, as my mom used to say... 'what goes around comes around.'

I think good deeds attract same. Bad deeds...well, nothing good comes of it.

All of our bulbs are popping up. A sign of new life. The great promise--or circle. New growth, flowers, dropping leaves in fall....waiting for next spring. Maybe you're on to something!

Cheers. Glorious spring day today.

Saturday

It's a beautiful Saturday morning in Charleston! Actually, it's been beautiful all week. I've walked and walked to see the cherry, tulip magnolias, and redbud trees in bloom. The camellias continue their bloom. Bulbs have popped their greenery and some of their flowers are starting to open. Carolina jasmine is blooming, the azaleas are almost ready to pop open and people are busy, busy, busy gardening, painting and repairing homes. I especially love looking at the beautiful window boxes this time of year. Just waiting for the wisteria to make its glorious appearance.

But Saturdays are the icing on the cake. I'm leaving in a bit to drive over to the Senior Center in Mount Pleasant to dance the morning away! Best exercise I get and it's fun too! Afterwards, I treat myself to a yummy salmon salad at Graze and I'm ready for the afternoon! Today it will be shopping! :D

Life is great!

Yesterday things were going very badly. We thought we would have to dig up our well pipe as we had a leak in the wall and the plumber/boiler guy couldn't fix it. $400. Then we called the well guy expecting the worst. he came out today on Sunday and fixed the pipe. No digging necessary. $300.:whoopie:

Now if we could just get the boiler guy back to put everything back together so we can have heat and hot water.........
