I found this while surfing tonight. It reiterates the things I said about having goals and being particular in how you set them. Good tips.

Go RED tomorrow...
.
Tomorrow is National Wear RED Day! Big day for women and heart health. It's an awareness day and you wearing red, just might help another woman start some changes in her lifestyle and getting a healthier heart!!!
Also, take the heart health check-up. It's free. You should know your blood pressure and have bloodwork results handy but it helps you figure out how to get with your doctor for results if you don't know them. If you haven't been to the doctor in over a year, you should go and get checked. Take care of yourself. Your family and friends will be happy that you did! Heart disease is the number one killer of women and men but most of it can be prevented. Go see how you can be a better, healthier you.

"New Every Morning"
.

.
Every day is a fresh beginning,
Every morn is the world made new.
You who are weary of sorrow and sinning,
Here is a beautiful hope for you,-
A hope for me and a hope for you.
All the past things are past and over;
The tasks are done and the tears are shed.
Yesterday's errors let yesterday cover;
Yesterday's wounds, which smarted and bled,
Are healed with the healing which night has shed.
Yesterday now is a part of forever,
Bound up in a sheaf, which God holds tight,
With glad days, and sad days, and bad days, which never
Shall visit us more with their bloom and their blight,
Their fullness of sunshine or sorrowful night.
Let them go, since we cannot relive them,
Cannot undo and cannot atone;
God in his mercy receive, forgive them!
Only the new days are our own;
To-day is ours, and to-day alone.
Here are the skies all burnished brightly,
Here is the spent Earth all reborn,
Here are the tired limbs springing lightly
To face the sun and to share with the morn.
In the chrism of dew and the cool of the dawn.
Every day is a fresh beginning,
Listen my soul, to the glad refrain,
And, spite of old sorrowand older sinning,
The puzzles forecasted and possible pain,
Take heart with the day, and begin again.
Susan Coolidge 1848 - 1894

WOOF= Greetings
.
If you look over to your right, there is a bar to a web site that will tell you about the killing of helpless animals that someone very caring is trying to stop from happening. A Place To Bark is a non-profit organization run by an artist names Bernie Berlin. She is an angel to these beautiful creatures. There is a $50,000 grant up for grabs right now and if Bernie can get this grant, it will do wonders to helping her organization thrive. All the countless hours of work she puts in is all by the grace of her devotion for these creatures. Won't you help the cause and donate $10?
.
Meow, meow!!! = Thank you kindly!

Eddie Van Halen turns 50 today...
.
Music is for people. The word 'pop' is simply short for popular. It means that people like it. I'm just a normal jerk who happens to make music. As long as my brain and fingers work, I'm cool.

Coolest site of the day...
.
Okay, this is too cool! Go here for information on what type of foods you should eat for a healthy weight. It gives specific amounts of each of the four food groups. It is personalized to your age, weight and height and whether or not you want to be at a healthier weight (I am above the ideal weight for my height-like I didn't already know that!!!). With my exercising, it told me I need 2,200 calories per day. It also gives tips for each food group. You will be glad you went to this site, I'm telling you!!!
.
Oh, where did I get this info? Well, when I was born my mother bought a term life policy for me which I still have. It was through Lutheran Brotherhood. Because of that policy, I get a magazine called Thrivent which has interesting articles for everyday life. That's where it came from...go figure!!! LOL

Today in history
.
January 23, okay it would be my grandmother's 109th birthday as she was born on this date in 1899 but the really big news is:
.
On this day in 1957, machines at the Wham-O toy company roll out the first batch of their aerodynamic plastic discs--now known to millions of fans all over the world as Frisbees.
.
The story of the Frisbee began in Bridgeport, Connecticut, where William Frisbie opened the Frisbie Pie Company in 1871. Students from nearby universities would throw the empty pie tins to each other, yelling "Frisbie!" as they let go. In 1948, Walter Frederick Morrison and his partner Warren Franscioni invented a plastic version of the disc called the "Flying Saucer" that could fly further and more accurately than the tin pie plates. After splitting with Franscioni, Morrison made an improved model in 1955 and sold it to the new toy company Wham-O as the "Pluto Platter"--an attempt to cash in on the public craze over space and Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs).
.
In 1958, a year after the toy's first release, Wham-O--the company behind such top-sellers as the Hula-Hoop, the Super Ball and the Water Wiggle--changed its name to the Frisbee disc, misspelling the name of the historic pie company. A company designer, Ed Headrick, patented the design for the modern Frisbee in December 1967, adding a band of raised ridges on the disc's surface--called the Rings--to stabilize flight. By aggressively marketing Frisbee-playing as a new sport, Wham-O sold over 100 million units of its famous toy by 1977.
.
High school students in Maplewood, New Jersey, invented Ultimate Frisbee, a cross between football, soccer and basketball, in 1967. In the 1970s, Headrick himself invented Frisbee Golf, in which discs are tossed into metal baskets; there are now hundreds of courses in the U.S., with millions of devotees. There is also Freestyle Frisbee, with choreographed routines set to music and multiple discs in play, and various Frisbee competitions for both humans and dogs--the best natural Frisbee players.
.
Today, at least 60 manufacturers produce the flying discs--generally made out of plastic and measuring roughly 20-25 centimeters (8-10 inches) in diameter with a curved lip. The official Frisbee is owned by Mattel Toy Manufacturers, who bought the toy from Wham-O in 1994.

Quote of the Day...
.
“The way to find out about happiness is to keep your mind on those moments when you feel most happy, when you are really happy — not excited, not just thrilled, but deeply happy. This requires a little bit of self-analysis. What is it that makes you happy? Stay with it, no matter what people tell you. This is what is called following your bliss.” ~ Joseph Campbell

What do you do for breakfast?
.
The top three items on an American breakfast menu...ready-to-eat cereal, coffee and fruit juice. I used to eat breakfast most days and usually cereal with banana or strawberries and whole milk plus orange juice. In the winter I had hot oatmeal when the boys were young. Now, with the thought of keeping my blood sugar at a reasonable level, I have a hard boiled egg and 4-6 oz. of orange juice with my vitamins. Mid-morning I will have cottage cheese and peaches (most days). And snacks consist of nuts and carrot sticks. More protein and less carbs is important when you are diabetic. However, it is most important that I eat something since foregoing breakfast usually means higher calories later in the day.

Word of the Day #7
.
(7) accomplish - achieve: to gain with effort; to succeed in doing -
.
I have several goals to accomplish this year and I have already achieved some of them. It is a good habit to assess your goals every so often and see what you have done and what needs to be done. Often times, people give up when they don't achieve their goals. Sometimes because it isn't set with a proper time limit or goals were set too high to begin with. Instead of giving up on the goals, reset the goals to something more do-able and with a different time frame. That might be all it takes to accomplish what you set out to do in the first place. The feeling you get when you accomplish something will set you up for success in the future. Likewise, if you don't complete goals, after a while, you set yourself up for failure and stop trying.
.
Goals are best done with a short statement of what it is that you want to accomplish, a time frame for accomplishing it in and what you hope to achieve by accomplishing it. A goal that is too vague (for example: I will be a better person this year) will probably not last and you may give up trying because you didn't explain how you would do it.
.
After a week you can see how do-able it was to write the first letter. If you are too busy, you may need to rethink the goal or time frame. Likewise, if you are ill for that week, you might need to readjust the goal to 4 letters per month (average is once a week) to allow for more flexibility in how you can achieve your goal. The idea is to not set yourself up for failure but to work with your goals to become successful and accomplished. As you achieve your goals, you can adjust them to take on more or less according to your needs.(7) accomplish - achieve: to gain with effort; to succeed in doing -

Goal: I will write one letter a week for the next three months to share with friends that live far away what is happening in my family's lives..
.
Have a journal of some sort to write down your goals and leave room for notes as you go along. To see my on-line blog journal of goals, click here. You can write what worked or didn't work which will help you with future goals. It is also a great source of inspiration to see in writing what you have accomplished.

What a glorious day!
.
I wake up to 55 degree temp with a bright sunny sky, beautiful music to listen to while I change the sheets and clean up the bathroom, a perfect cup of coffee I finally made (after several failed attempts!) and ideas abounding in my head as I complete tasks one after the other. No glass could be half-fuller!!!
.
I figured it would be cooler today after the storm we had yesterday but you never know here. I was pleased to wake up to true cool, crispness in the air. The kind that makes you want to open all of the windows and take a deep breath as you open each one. (Any cooler than 55, mind you, and I would be hesitant to have open windows. I have my "cool" limit!)
.
I took a hot salt bath to ease the everyday pains in the joints and of course.....to shave!!! One must shave in the tub of water once in a while because you can see better than when you are standing in the shower, bending over, trying to hold your balance - you know who you are!!! Then, seeing that the tub has been neglected lately, I decided to get out the detergent for tubs and my gloves...uh-oh, only one glove and it is a lefty! Dang it!!! So, I put it on my left hand and proceeded to clean the entire tub bending over with my left hand. That's a lesson in futility (next word of the day). I was actually surprised at how much I was able to do. 75% of the tub was cleaned all with my left hand while my right hand held up the rest of my body!!! I was thinking about those who lose a limb and the half full glass popped in my head (kind of like the lightbulb that goes on for some people - mine is a half full glass!). I am blessed to have all limbs and functioning properly. But, it is still good to change once in a while to give the non-dominant a chance to shine. And my tub is shining now!!!
.
I put on one of my recent favorite CDs and started thinking about my childhood. I can remember not wanting to practice the piano like I was supposed to and then when I did play, I wanted to play Elton John and The Carpenters. My teacher, Mrs. Kravitz would allow me to show her what I learned and then quickly got out the classical music books I was only allowed to play for her. She was classically training and I suspect, very good at her prime. I don't think I appreciated her very much at the time....the 70's weren't about Bach and Beethoven to an 8-14 year old girl!!! Now, I think about her and want to send positive thoughts to her memory that I do appreciate classical music so much now. I owe quite a bit of the early teachings from her and I can play a mean Fur Elise to prove it!
.
Is there ever a time when you think about someone who put a mark on your life but you never had the chance to tell them? I was able to tell my mom and dad before they died and I am glad I did. But, I do think it is never too late. My thoughts to those who have passed are real and I know that they know how I feel. It is rewarding, to say the least.
.
My coffee experience...I have yet to consistently make a great batch. Partly because I don't make the same amount or use the same measuring utensil, but I am learning.
.
I bought some Dunkin Donuts coffee before the holidays (a fav of mine) and it definitely is stronger and doesn't require as much as say Folgers. The first two times I made it, it was so strong that I used at least a quarter of a cup of half n half to just lighten the color from black to chocolate!!! That pot I threw out, needless to say!!! Since then, I am down to less than half the 12 oz. package I bought and wanted to tweek it to get the most enjoyment out of it. Today was the day. I used my smaller scoop and with 2 scoops per cup, it made the perfect batch. Light mocha color, the way I like it, after a touch of cream and ooooh, that DD robust flavor. Mmmmmm...it's a glorious day!

Word of the day #6
.
(6) procrastinate - to put off intentionally and habitually the doing of something that should be done -
.
I hope to not procrastinate as much this year. Setting goals and having regular check in times with these goals will make me aware of what I am accomplishing or not accomplishing. By "check in times" I mean writing down each goal and journaling about my achievements or what I haven't done that needs to be modified so that I can accomplish it.

Word of the Day #5
.
(5) catharsis - a purification or purgation that brings about spiritual renewal or release from tension; elimination of a complex by bringing it to consciousness and affording it expression
.
My catharsis is walking. When I go out and walk, I can breathe in deeper and getting fresh air, I relax into a zen-like state. That is why many times I don't hear anyone who beeps at me as they drive past.
.
Other cathartics are for another type of elimination which, we nurses, know all too well!!!!! My cathartic is non-tangible and thus, less messy.

What are you listening to?
.
I sometimes go all day without any sound in the house (well, except for the noises that the cats make - some just a light meow and others, a very annoying mrahwwwwwwwwowwwwww) but as I was walking around today, I realized that I hadn't heard one of my favorite albums in a while. It is called Winter Song by John Tesh and it is a refreshing, eclectic grouping of songs that instill a mood of post holidays but also a renewal of the present and brand new year.
.
Ah, to have hearing to appreciate these songs. I am thankful for that. What are you thankful for? Are you listening to anything? Your heart? What is it telling you? Are you following it? Does music ever fill your heart and soul? It does mine.
