"I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
So the days float through my eyes
But stil the days seem the same"

Lyrics by David Bowie
*********************************************************

We're in the full heat of summer all over right now and man is it HOT out there! It's 90 degrees right now and will be 95 degrees at 5pm today! Whew!

We've been in the swimming pool a lot these days. Mostly on the weekend though. My little one has developed quite a tan some of you would be so jealous, she looks quite caramelly! She loves the water and is swimming much better now. As for me, I might be chocolate but I have an even deeper shade of brown! I am much more even toned which is actually not bad!lol!


I've made some changes to my blogpage, did you notice? I got bored with the look and wish I could do more to make it more colorful - hint-hint! So It's not that I don't love you guys on my favourite list anymore! You thought so didn't you?! haha

I miss some of you who have not been around lately. I know, life, you get busy, stuff happens, it's summer, same here too! I've been trying to be back on a more regular basis but it's not easy. At work, sometimes busy, plus my student shares my computer and at home, even busier and my kids uses my computer there since mine is the one with the Internet! That's why I need a laptop!

So I get to follow up with some of you guys and others I haven't been by to vist with lately. For me it's been hectic like I said, sometimes tense, sometimes not so tense. I've decided to not stress so much over my oldest daughter and her choices. It's her life and if she wants to not heed some of my advice, then she can live and experience life for herself. So, yes I do still worry and offer my advice, after all, she's my child, but I'm watching and praying! There's of course more to tell, but that's for another time!


Anyways, so how are you doing lately?

If my office did not have a window, I would not even see the sun!  I hope we get the new guy soon!

Glad to hear y'all are tanning well!

Ouch! I hope he comes too, you poor thing! When's the next trip out West or did you go already?

Thx! Today I came home, it was such a scorcher, we jumped in the pool at 7pm, then had to run out 15mins later because of clouds and lightning! That was fun!

I've been busy with writing and games. They always release good games during the summer and christmas seasons. Of course we don't have summer here in the equator but it's still the hottest time of the year. It's not so much the heat as the humidity around here.

As to the poetry stuff, I'm working on some for a national poetry competition.

August.  For my BIL's 60th.  I hope the temps have gone down since then.  They are hitting 120 about now!

If it's not the heat it's the humidity! Truthfully, I prefer the heat to the cold, at least I can do something to cool off while trying to stave off cold is not as easy.


Aaah games, my son has discovered some website that allows him to download games he loves to play, he's contantly on the computer! He dreams of being a game designer/developer one day so I let him at it and just monitor how much time he spends in front of the computer.

I'm excited because my girlfriend (one of my bff) is coming to visit with me tomorrow for a couple of days! Mini vacation time!

Hey sweetie! I'm glad you are doing well.

Maybe we need to start up a donation drive for a laptop so we can hear from you more often!

I don't think I've ever posted any poems here. *g* I can't post those I'm going to submit anyway, so no worries.

Yeah, been really hot lately. Didn't make moving any more fun

Always liked that Bowie tune.

Be careful with too much sun. You may have built in sunscreen but you can get skin cancer too.

Good to "hear" from you.

Love the title... 'Changes' is one of my all time favourite tunes (yeah, I know, I have a million of 'em but Bowie is very high on the list).

Glad to hear you and yours are enjoying summer. I know I've not been around here much lately and I do miss my friends here but life must go on. In fact, life insists on moving at an insane pace at the moment. I can't believe we are over half way through 2007 already. Oh well, time certainly flies when you're having fun and I'm having a ball.

Good to see you...
