Feeling crabby and crusty today. I've been nauseated all day, so I've been lying down. LilMan dropped a paper out of his folder when he was packing his backpack (I usually check everything for him, but not today), and I missed his call from the school. Teacher sent me a note informing me that he's now failing Spanish. HE MISSED ONE PAPER. IN 8 MONTHS. I emailed her about it, and it better do some good. He's devastated and I'm not feeling up to being diplomatic. I may be using some of my most choice swears tomorrow.

I saw a nice big bone in ham at the store today - nine lbs. and it is honey ham. It's baking in the oven right now at 325 and I studded it with 18 whole cloves

Mmmmmm - it smells divine!

Do you put pineapple slices on it, too? My sister does that- she uses the stems of cloves to hold them in place on the ham. It's delicious!!

A few newbies have asked about an explanation of "Love and Green Lights", so here is the meaning of that phrase as I use it.

Love and green lights............ While reading the Tao Te Ching, a book of 81 concepts for life, I came across a modern day translation by Dr Wayne Dyer. His favorite saying is: I send you love and all green lights. That phrase caught me in a special way.

The love part is basic, but within the Tao is has greater meaning. Love is the desire to give and not look for reward from anyone. When we chose love we are taken to higher consciousness, both inner and upward. Life becomes harmonious and free from strain.

The green lights is a comparison to ones life path and a traffic light. Picture traveling down a busy highway and needing to stop at each red light. Your travel is not smooth and free flowing. However, if you experience only ( all) green lights, your travel is clear sailing. On your journey of life, if you experience all green lights, your path is smooth and free. To wish one no harm, nothing to stop them in their journey.

This is why I wish you love and green lights. A life's journey filled with love and a smooth path to travel.

Pooh Just Is come from the Tao of Pooh. A life lesson to show how Pooh deals with life.... He just is.

"While Eeyore frets ...
... and Piglet hesitates
... and Rabbit calculates
... and Owl pontificates
...Pooh just is."


Also-- Buckwheat and Pyro are two pet snakes the Cantina inherited over the years. Since some members, and especial our MsMod are not fond of snakes, they come to visit each Thursday and a sign is placed in the window to warn all. They are loving snakes and stay in the corner.

THIS is why I love The Ka-Tet Cantina 2.

Peace.

I thought you found a nice little apartment a few minutes away?

So glad that you like the new job! Having long-standing employees and whole families that work there is a great sign :)
