A Hug For The Soul!


That sounds very Zen, doesn't it?!?! :0) Actually ... it's my way of NOT banging my head against a wall in frustration!

You see ... I had taken photos of a couple of projects I'd finished over the weekend, a sweet prize I'd won from Lisa a Button Bliss a while ago and the yummy fabrics that followed me home from Marion's sale last week, ready to share with you, my blogging buddies. I sat down at the computer, loaded them onto the computer, copied them to the appropriate folder from my camera memory card, then ... as I always do, deleted them from the camera card to free up space for new photos ... cos they were now safe and sound, saved on my computer ... right?!?!?! WRONG!!! Somewhere along the track, something went horribly wrong and the computer swallowed the pictures, then spat them back out into cyber-space somewhere, never to be seen again! GRRRRRRRR!!!

So I shall have to go and dig out the finished projects, prize and new fabrics from where I had very diligently put them away (don't fall over in shock at that! Tee! Hee! Hee!) and take new photos ... but I don't have time this afternoon, so that will have to be a TOMORROW job. SIGH!

So, there I was feeling frustrated at our 'wonderful' computer technology when I decided to use my computer time to look up Google for something. Now, I don't know about you, but when I sign into my iGoogle page, it has personalised settings and backgrounds etc and somehow (more of that 'wonderful' technology!!) I ended up with a horoscope in the bottom corner of my page. Usually I find it a mix of the vague and incomprehensible, but I really liked today's horoscope and thought I'd share it with you. Now, although this was officially the review for the day for Pisces (that's me, two fish swimming around aimlessly ... could explain my 'goldfish' memory! Tee! Hee! Hee!) I really feel it applies to ALL of us for EVERY day, so here's a 'hug for the soul' from Rick Levine.

"This is truly a magical day, if you remember that you can create a positive atmosphere wherever you go by virtue of your attitude. Your spiritual orientation is capable of turning a boring chore into a sacred act of gratitude. But, what others perceive now isn't important. Honour the richness of your imagination and aspire to experience beauty, even if it cannot be put into words."

I hope you are warmed by my 'hug' sent out to all of my blogging buddies. So as I wish on my rainbow ...


I hope you have a week where you can 'experience beauty' in whatever life throws your way ... and I'll be back soon with some photos ... providing the computer doesn't get hungry again!!! :0) Til next time ...

RAINBOW BEAR HUGS!
CHEERS!
KRIS
