I keep making the same mistake and have to ask myself why.
Now you may have been told that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Yet, how easy it becomes to stay in your rut because somehow that rut seems safer, familiar even comforting as compared to climbing out and continuing on your way.

The film, Twilight Eclipse is absolutely my favorite of the series so far!
I was lucky enough to get tickets on June 30th and went with my youngest son and my oldest son’s girlfriend. The theater was XD which must be like an Imax screen or something because the faces were huge. It felt like the actors were falling off the screen into our laps (which is not a criticism

My husband got me the greatest gift for my birthday last month.
An Amazon Kindle 2 Wireless Reading Device.
This gadget is by far one of, if not “the”, best gifts he’s ever given me. It’s quickly become my absolute favorite.
I have the 6″ screen version which can hold 1500 e books. It’s really light weight and easy to hold. I’m so spoiled now, that I hate holding onto standard books. Read the rest of this entry »
Community involvement starts with the people who actually live there. It warms my heart to see businesses within the community look for ways to aid through educational opportunities or strengthening neighborhoods. But if we the people don’t actively involve ourselves in our local communities, then shame on us.
