Married to my college sweet-heart :)...three GREAT kids I'm not selling to the circus today...I LOVE to laugh (& smile often)...love to read & cook, hate to shop (unless the store is very small and doesn't leave me dazed and confused). I'm scared of flying so although I'd like to travel more, I don't.
I've been pleasantly surprised to find life in my 40s to be an amazing time of transformation & discovery--of self, others, creation and the Creator.
Here's a partial explanation for my Blog title. I think it'd be cool if they really existed.
A Pensieve is a stone basin.... [One] can extract his or her own memories and place them in the Pensieve, especially
to relieve the mind when it becomes too flooded with information. Anyone can examine the memories in the Pensieve, which also allows viewers to fully immerse themselves in the memories stored within...
A Pensieve first appears in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire...

Guess this is as good an explanation as any for Black Friday and mile-long lines at your favorite 'lectronics store :/.

I don't have the shopping gene.
I think I would probably develope it had I been born with the money gene.
Who the heck is gene, anyway.
Well, Gene was a boy who lived across the street and really annoyed the heck out of me growing up. and for the life of me, I couldn't figure out why his parents named him after my favorite pants. :)
My mom and I were just commiserating that it's still September (it IS! Didn't you know that?!?!) and already everyone is scurrying around talking about Christmas lists, planning holiday parties, waiting in eternal lines for tax-free bonus purchases, and decorating their houses.
I don't know why they're all in a cafuffle about it. It's still S E P T E M B E R.
Perhaps under all the metallic red wrapping paper, the mountain of daily catalog deliveries, and the bags of sorted "gifts for so-and-so and such-and-such," there's a Baby. I wonder, can He breathe under all of that?
Gene is the calender manufacturer who insists that it's the end of November, when really, it IS ONLY mid-September. The guy really has something wrong in the head.
OK, Pamela and KarmynR...stop it. You're making me laugh and I trying not to disturb the HansMan.
Never, never, do I leave the house on Black Friday. I never knew what that really meant until a few years ago and was afraid something horrific was going to happen on that day.
I know.
I love making people feel special with that gift. But seriously.
Thanks for sharing.
I heard the coolest Christmas song today - 'It is Christmas with a Capital "C"' I have to find that somewhere. I have to check with the radio station who the artist is...
