Random Thing About Me #1…

…would have to be:

1).  I am frequently given to giving in to “peer pressure”….apparently!!

So, some of my dear friends Amanda and Alison have recently written posts entitled “Random Things About Me” - and I want, so badly, to be like them :-) .  Of course, upon further reflection, I realized that almost all of my posts could be titled “Random Things About Me”….so I’m thinking it may be redundant - but, here goes:

  • I am a complete chameleon, so even the “normal” things about me can seem completely random.
  • I frequently complicate the most mundane of thoughts by using large words…that I may or may not be sure of their proper meaning and/or context…but, I digress…
  • I frequently digress…and am easily distracted (have been known to be deep into a discussion and forget my point because the sky just looks too pretty)!
  • I love watching the sky, am a huge fan of lightening…although I will lecture everyone around me of the dangers of said lightening…especially in Central Florida.
  • I frequently lecture those around me with random tid-bits of knowledge that I have gathered…things that I shouldn’t even know, but do somehow - I’m very “Cliff Claven-ish” in that respect.
  • I love to watch shows that have been out of prime-time for years (hence my reference to Cliff Claven), then I will watch every episode in order…in perfect OCD fashion.
  • “The Office” is probably the only prime-time show I watch every week as it comes on.
  • I watched the British version of “The Office” before it ever came to the U.S. - it’s a little racy, though…so I prefer the American version.
  • I love British humor…and British murder mysteries…….and tea!
  • I love blogging….and my MacBook with the zebra skin….but, get very depressed when my “blog stats” aren’t good.
  • I’m very sensitive…most people don’t know this about me - I guess I hide it…or maybe I just get distracted by something random (like a pretty sky) and forget that someone has hurt my feelings……
  • Loyalty is the most important quality, to me, in a friend - that and adaptability…well, because who I am can change so frequently, you have to be on your toes to love me anyway.
  • I love my friends….and frequently give in to their peer pressure….

…hence, this post! :-)

So, there you go and there you are!

Peace to the out!

(Oh yeah, also:  I despise getting my hair cut since they frequently cut it all off even though I beg to the contrary!  I got my hair cut this morning…I think I’ll leave you all hanging as to the result! :-) ).

Peace.

The Sun Also Rises…

…even on a Monday…

I think this photo looks like an impressionist painting….it makes me happy!  I have a love affair with the sky….and I always have.  I used to stare at the clouds, as a child, and pretend I was up there - in their “fluffiness”……….I still have my head in the clouds, most days.

I’ve set aside today to look for my little shopping cart girl. I’ve been dreaming about her a lot lately…and this post reminded me that sometimes dreams can inspire us to work harder - that I can’t ever forget those who can’t help themselves.

I have this dream that, maybe someday, my little shopping cart girl will be able to stare at the clouds too, and dream her little girl dreams…. 

…and maybe I can help her make one or two come true.

That would really be a dream to me.

Peace.

Vive La Provence…(and a jolly cup o’tea!)

So, ever since I was a teenager sitting in high school French class, I have dreamed of going to Southern France.  I have a love of all things Provincial…

I also adore English Tea…I’ve had “High Tea” in London and it was everything I thought it would be. :-)

Yesterday, Byron and I went to Epcot to visit both “England” and “France” to pick up a few things for the upcoming “Girl’s Night Out” I’m hosting for the Women of C3.

I’m so excited to have these ladies to my home, and since it’s at my house…

WE’RE HAVING A TEA PARTY!!

I also picked up some French Provincial decorations.  Hey, all things with me are….eclectic!  I definitely think French decor and “High Tea” can blend together in harmony!

It’s going to be a blast!  If you haven’t joined the “Women of C3″ contact list, please visit the website, and send your name and email info to womenofc3@c3orlando.com.

Paix et amour à vous!

will write more later….

…when I can sit and think for a second - until then, I’m just gonna link to this post since it made me smile….

Have a great Saturday!  :-)  (Stop and smell the flowers!)

Happiness is a rose garden...
