Touching Base

The title seemed appropriate since Baseball Season is upon us. Not usually a baseball fan but the Washington Nationals are burning up the mound. They may go all the way!

I do have my Nationals baseball hat and now just need to add a t-shirt - but I am so darn picky.... Anyway, need to head off to work and wanted to share my note from The Universe today -

"The evolution of all spiritual life, Marlynn, includes 3 absolutes:

1.  You will love.
2.  You will be loved.
3. The former will eventually be far more important to you than the latter.

Grasshopper,
The Universe
P.S. It's when an old soul, Marlynn, becomes an old soul.

And so my little Grasshoppers out there, remember the evolution of all spiritual life! Have a great day and make sure whatever you do -- make sure you ROCK it!

Quick Update

Wanted to update you all on my current status. No news yet. Is the waiting to hear hard? Not when you keep yourself busy! Remember that because you don't have time to dwell on it. I'm puppy-sitting Oliver and when he is not napping- no rest for the weary. LOL. Tonight he and I will be feasting on slow cooked Pot Roast.

Yesterday I painted my front door, went grocery shopping, stopped at cleaners and then it was time for Mr. Oliver. He got a new toy and took it to bed last night. Today we are hanging out. You all enjoy the rest of your Sunday. Hugs to all. When I hear any news I will let you know.

Waiting in the Breeze

I should probably begin this post with my Note from The Universe today.  How appropriate, wouldn't you say?



Be led by joy, Marlynn

It's the whole point.

Tallyho,

  The Universe

PS, Remember Marlynn, before this entire adventure began, you once asked me to remind you of this? You asked that I time it right before the floodgates opened, so that you could stay grounded. You were studying at the prestigious Bent Light University.. in the Ph.D. program... on a Hula Hoop scholarship. "Go Illuminators!"


I think this is appropriate for today since I am still waiting for the results of the  biopsies.  You know, waiting is almost Zen like when you think of it. You just have to get into the moment, the flow, the dance and mesh in the here and now after twirling with your hula hoop. You cannot angst over things like this because it will throw your serenity into a tail spin.


Yes, my tail is usually spinning enough, my peeps. Between working, tennis, workouts, boxing, and creating, I really don't have much time to get into the "angst-mode". Really, not good for you emotionally, spiritually, or physically. So if you learn anything from my travels and journeys - learn this:  live in the moment, be thankful for what you have, don't moan, groan, or whine.  Say a prayer each day and make sure you thank you!


All that being said, I have been creating some pages in the "Lost Chord" book.  The one above is using a clip art from Retro Cafe. She is a beauty, isn't she and so perfect for our upcoming Easter Celebrations. The background is from an old book, "The Lives of Saints" I picked up somewhere. Seemed it worked well.

So if you learn anything from my travels and journeys - learn this:  live in the moment, be thankful for what you have, don't moan, groan, or whine.  Say a prayer each day and make sure you say thank you!  And whatever you do, don't let the train leave the station without you.

Day is Almost Done

Just to let you know the day went OK. Felt long in the morning waiting for the Stereotactic biopsy to begin and then found out we would do two areas. What did that mean? Takes twice as long as one area. LOL.


I believe it was harder to lay still in an uncomfortable position but not so uncomfortable as to make it unbearable. Mostly I just zoned out like I do in my workouts off and on. Harley and Larcy took good care of me. Lunch was fantastic.

Going to call it an early evening and watch mindless TV. Thinking it was a good idea to take the day off. Will head into work tomorrow. Thank you for your comments and private notes yesterday and today. New day tomorrow. *smile* I hear peach pie calling me! Hugs peeps!
