As of late...

Ok I said no blogging but I found myself with some time.... These are the things I am thinking about and doing... Thought I would share... Well not so much sharing I guess than it is getting outside my head....

I have been surfing new blogs.... You may have noticed a couple of new ones on my bloglines.. I would link these folks but they are already on my blogroll so if you haven't checked them out please go pay a visit. I must admit I am a bit os a "lurker" on some of them. I am too intimidated by their beauty, loveliness, their art to actually make any comments... I know, stupid.
Dancing Mermaid~She is gorgeous. Her photographs are beautiful.. I really do believe she is a mermaid. She also paints rocks which I love. I too collect and paint rocks. She writes beautifully. Oh and she dresses her cat in a tutu. I love tutus. I can't seem to make myself buy one though. I would wear one say, if I got it as gift... Hint, hint;)


As for new interests in bloggy world. Bluepoppy is another blog I read Everyday. I am not sure of the woman's name but she is hysterical! My friend and fellow blogger Misty told me about her a long time ago and now a year or so later I am just tuning in..
Better Now is another good blog. This woman is so funny and she writes beautifully. I eat up anything she writes.
There is also a new blog called Blogtations. It quotes many blogs out there... So many great blogs out there I just love this one becasue I can get snipets of other souls that I would not otherwise get to read...


I read 2 books this week: Promise Not to Tell by Jennifer McMahon -a VT author. I didnt really like this book. Ok it was somewhat entertaining but I closed it feeling empty handed.
Book #2 Bridges of Madison County by Robert James Waller- I had never read this book before. I know I am a little behind. I LOVED IT. I found it so inspiring. So magical. While home sick today I finished it. I cried and cried. I was so sad. I want to feel the inspiration I felt in the begining but to be honest I feel broken, my heart is heavy. Not whole. I was sad for Robert and Francesca but I think ultimately I was sad for myself... I think this maybe a topic for another time. These are the parts of the book that stood out to me that I felt I needed to highlight:
"intelligence and passion born of living, the ability to move and be moved by the subtleties of the mind and spirit,were what really counted."
"Analysis destroys wholes. Some things, magic things, are meant to stay whole. If you look at their pieces they go away."
"To the Universe four days is no differentthan four billion light years. I try to keep that in mind."

I think this post is too long so I am going to say ta-ta for now....
If anyone would like these books, let me know-I will share the magic.
