Feeling Thankful

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – April 3, 2004 – Many days go by, when I take my life completely for granted. I forget all the things I have to be grateful for and focus instead on the “list” of things that need to be done, some of which I don’t particularly enjoy and don’t want to do.

An Overactive Imagination

 Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – April 2, 2004 – I just know there are people who can identify with this! My rotten cold still has a stranglehold on my ears and throat, so last night I made a Neo-Citran before I went to bed. It not only helps to clear my sinuses, but it makes me sleepy – a true gift for this crazed and sleep-deprived menopausal woman.

Ziggy In The Morning

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – April 1, 2004 – I received a very funny e-mail this morning from a friend. I have no idea who wrote it but I thought it was worth re-printing here, with thanks to the author, whoever he or she may be. It’s a defining essay on the differences between cats and dogs. Being the guardian of both – I can attest to its veracity.

Wishing Well Sanctuary

Happy Hearts – Evalina – If you are involved in a specific animal cause or are a supporter of many different animal issues – the daily sadness of human cruelty to animals can be soul destroying.  Whether it is the appalling cruelty in factory farming – the torture of pets – the hunting of endangered animals or the general lack of respect and compassion for our fellow sentient beings – animal advocacy can be a heavy burden to carry. So to counter that – Happy Hearts offers some beauty in the midst of sadness. Enjoy!

What Do They Say About March?

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – March 31, 2004 – They say if “March comes in like a lion – it goes out like a lamb”. That sort of sums up how I’m feeling right now. Meek like a lamb. The weather is certainly behaving. The snow has vanished. The days are longer, mild and damp, but this miserable cold bug I have is hanging on well after it has any right to do so!
