Had the tofu bacon/cucumber/tomato munchies. Now am having another tomato sandwich, pickles w/mayo and harvest grain chips, kale, Ice water. Have a vernors ginger ale, rice milk and peaches in my bag.
Wanted kale & seaweed over couscous but the storm knocked out our power last night while I was here in the University Library.
We might be out for days, as many of the power employees went to Texas/ Louisiana to help after the hurricanes down there.
You are right about the chemicals and thanks for the TIP of H2O2.
My Frosh year @ CWRU, I read an article about a Farmer in, I think, Iowa. He had died. His widow was donating three jars of corn he had picked 20 years, before, and sealed into individual jars.
The first jar was from a field he did not add any manure to for fertilization. The corn was moldy but you could see it was corn.
The second jar was from his best organic field, with manure added to fertilize the field. The ear of corn looked like it had been picked the day before.
The third jar was from his neighbors best field, treated with all the Gov't required commercial fertilizers, limes, and pesticides. The ear of corn was, are you ready for this????
Are you sure???
A pile of brown dust in the bottom of the jar.
Really give's a visual meaning to you are what you eat, doesn't it?
True!, And that means look outside the box once in awhile. Looking too closely to you and what you feel, as a comparison to others, will usually leave you feeling as if you are in a competition. It is not a competition. It is a journey and you are free to make it a good one or not.
Part of making it a good one is to NOT focus on what you lack or what the other has that you don't. But TO BE GLAD for your fellow traveller, and tell them that too.
By doing so, you will ease the envy in your heart and soul that leads to the negative feelings you experience. At the same time you will be opening your heart to be filled with the same good things you wish for.
The perfect man loves you for you and not just one tiny part. The perfect man would sacrifice everything for you. The perfect man isn't afraid to tell you the truth. The perfect man is kind, sweet, funny, and loving. The perfect man can make you crumble with one glance. The perfect man can make you feel unlike you've ever felt before. The perfect man knows he's perfect, but won't ever admit it. The perfect man has a smile that lights up a room. The perfect man will admit when he's wrong. The perfect man won't admit when he's right. The perfect man would never say anything that makes you feel like less of a person. The perfect man has his beliefs, but would never force them on you. The perfect man won't force you to tell him everything, but he's always there if you want to. The perfect man will sit with you when you don't feel like dancing. The perfect man will know when to take your hand. The perfect man will know when he loves you but won't tell you until he's sure he means it. The perfect man will make you want to be a better person. The perfect man does not exist.
I'll second that, cherokeemoon. Sure wish we could all find our own perfect men
No, actually, they have said the residents that are being cuddle by this cat, either know their time is limited, and are grateful. Or are comatose, suffering from Alzheimer's/ Dementia.
But the families have all said they noticed their loved ones were much calmer and peaceful as long as the cat stayed snuggled under the pts hands or some other place with skin contact.
There was apparently only one family that kept putting the cat out of the room. Every time they took the cat away from their loved one he got so frantic and they could not calm him by holding his hands or anything. The staff tried to explain to the family that the pt was more peaceful if they left the cat with him.
But they insisted that he be given morphine or something to keep him calm instead. The report said even under the influence the pt was agitated. He died a lot longer and later than other pts the cat cuddled up with did and w/o an peacefulness.
Yes, my Suitemate was a real friend. I also ran into somebody when I worked in the Hospital. I had to go upstairs to a pt's room. This pt was dying from cancer caused by cigarettes.
Tubes everywhere. His body was in such fragile shape they had to suspend him in a device that looked like a hamster wheel. It rotated him in all directions b/c his skin would not tolerate being touched w/o breaking open into huge, deep gashes.
Yet, his fluids settled and did not move through his body. So the only thing they could do was hook him up to this thing and turn him every 5 minutes.
He had to be in the dark b/c his eyes would tolerate no light. The poor guy could not even watch TV, past a few short minutes... Talk about Total Shock. It was all I could do not to cry when I met him.
He demanded in a raspy, weak, air robbed voice, from everybody who came in to tell him if they smoked. If they, did he said take a good look. This is from cigarettes.
If they didn't, asked if they had anyone in their life who did, and to bring them to see him. There were kids in juvie being brought in to meet Charley. he said if he had met anyone like him, he never would have started to smoke.
He said he started @ 16. When I met him he was only 26. and had less than 6 mos to live.
I guess, I was lucky. I never really smoked. I tried once and my Dormitory Suitemate, Sue, a Junior in Law School walked in on me, while we were living in a renting Fraternity House for the summer, when the Dorms were closed.
I had just lit my first, ever. Sue broke it off as I puffed. I lit two more with the same results. So I said Geeze u r really serious about this. Here Take it, its a new pack.
I thought she'd toss it in the trash can. She jumped up and down on them ground them into the carpet, then handed me the vacuum to sweep them up. She said she'd gotten hooked @ 13 yrs old and it took her until the age of 25 to quit. She also lectured me b/c I am asthmatic.
She actually did me a favor in more was than one. I will be grateful to her for my entire life. As, it actually turns out I am allergic to cigarette smoke. That did not show up until later in my 20's.
But it is no fun being in the hospital with hives externally over your entire body and internally down your esophagus, lungs and in your stomach. That was from second hand smoke.
I know I read in the same Journal of Radiology, that said the amount of radiation for marijuana the chemicals from the pesticides and fertilizers, as they are being burned turn into Isotopic Daughters of Uranium equivalent to well over the amount of radiation received from ~ three times that of 8 chest X-rays in a year.
Well it said the same thing goes for cigarettes, except the amount of radiation from two packs per day per year is equal to the radiation of getting 8 chest X-rays in a years time.
I do love the smell of a pipe. My Grandfathers all smoked one.
I read about a nursing home that has resident cats. One cat never socializes with people as a rule, but he always stays cuddled with people who are on the edge of death. They have gotten to the point to where when they notice him cuddling with a resident, that they notify family members. So far, he has never been wrong.
We lived in a 300+ year old house when I was growing up. There was an Antique Lamp my Mother was particularly fond of. It was usually, strategically placed on the organ, next to a table which was on a 90 deg Angle to a dark spot.
We all, Dad and Kids had a habit of moving that lamp for more light. Mom did not really want any of us moving the lamp b/c she did not want it broken.
One day, while lecturing us all, once again about the lamp and that she wanted it only in the safe place she picked for it, The lamp suddenly moved from the organ to the table in by itself.
After the shock of what we'd seen, well, Dad said guess none of us are going to argue with a Ghost, and the Ghost can stay only if it is friendly. Mom never objected to where the lamp was again.
Forgot to mention, I have been to: Pennsylvania, West VA, VA, The Carolinas, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Niagara Falls, Indiana.
Would like to take one of those Cross Country Bicycle Tours from Boston to CA. Used to want to do one of the Around the World Bicycle Tours, not so sure about that anymore though, safetywise.
RE: Men's G- Spot
Your turn to take the notes tonight and pass them out to us Girl Friend, ok?
