weekend
i work only two days this week and then have five consecutive days off. i am looking forward to it immensely. i plan to do a lot of nothing.

we had a good weekend. here were some of the contents.

: the buckeyes won. which was good.

: we had our recently engaged friends dave and sara over for dinner.

: we went to anne and gino's and had fun. we solved all the world's problems and felt very accomplished.

: i made some kick ass chilli.

: i had a nice conversation w/ lyndi.

: i got some great input and persepctive on my life from two very wise older women in my life.

: we did some seasonal deep cleaning.

: i watched charlie and the chocolate factory and didn't like it so much.

: i slept in one day.

: i had an 'ah ha moment' when i was reminded that i can act my way into right thinking and that i don't have to entertain and nurture every thought and emotion that comes to mind. these are good things for me to remember. and yes- sometimes cliches actually work on me.

: i converted a trashcan to a composter and started a compost pile.

i would like to have more hyper-links in this post.
but lyndi will have to suffice for now.

have a good week!

today's chewable vitamin:

"a time comes when silence is betrayal. some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak. we must speak out with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak." ~ mlk
