Not too long ago I wrote about how listening to my Itunes music library filled me with some great memories from my childhood. I promised to share these so here is one such treat for this chilly Monday.
Today’s song is: “Green Onions” by Booker T. & The McG’s
When I was a little girl I spent most of my time with my parents. Basically every Friday night was spent watching movies. They would make some popcorn. We would throw several large pillows on the floor. And all three of us would stretch out in front of the TV and watch a movie.
I had an early introduction to great filmmaking. George Lucas. Martin Scorsese. Francis Ford Coppola. Steven Spielberg. Oliver Stone. I remember watching a lot of R-rated films. My parents do not realize it but if it had not been for this early education I would never had pursued filmmaking like I did in college. There was so much magic to telling a story.
To this day, I create a ritual out of watching movies. Its magic has not waned.

Last night before the clock hit 7pm I was feeling great making dinner for my sick brother. I even stayed up to fix a breakfast for my brother to take in a hurry since he had to work at 6am.
Going to bed at 10 may sound dull but I was looking forward to getting some sleep. I woke up at 12. My breathing was scary. Went back to bed. Woke up again at 2am. Woke up again at 3am. Again at 4am. Finally when 5am came around I was hoping my brother would rush off to work so I could take a shower. Never have I wanted a humidifier more.
Suffice to say the night was horrendous. I feel like Jekyll and Hyde. Mentally I want to clean and sanitize every surface, wash some dishes, wash the bedding. But physically I want want to throw all the blankets onto my achy joints curl up on the couch and cough to my heart’s content.

I feel a little like a zombie right now what with my red eyes and my quick temper I could do some serious damage if let loose on the general public.
The picture above is from one of my favorite sites and I personally believe there should be a placard with that written on it for those of us infected folks.
Until next time, rx.
This is the reality of owning a dog. After a few weeks nothing your dog does can faze you. Nothing.
Blogging late a night is a bad habit that ought to be broken. But in the hustle and bustle I need to get this one out of my system.
I love to create and I am working hard on turning that love into a business. Not asking for the moon. I am not aspiring to be a fashion designer.
Ever since I was a kid my dreams were simple. Have a family. Own a house with wood floors. Fall asleep in a bed covered in dogs.
Having said that I do what I can to keep my focus, keep up the optimism. I avoid most of the news. I don’t appreciate talk about politics, or gossip neither one make me feel better about the world. Instead I rely on fellow bloggers to keep my grounded in my own aspirations.
I just read this article: The Short but Powerful Guide to Finding Your Passion.
It made me smile. Its a good guide. I especially enjoyed #8. Banish your fears.
Much needs to be done before I go to bed so I will post again tomorrow.
I have gotten behind in my duties. I have actually written up two blog entries in the last couple of days. I have not been near a computer so the entries will be added later tonight.
I have seen much and done much in the last couple of days. I’ve been roaming a local mall and getting a feel for this current marketplace. Gotta tell you I was saddened and overjoyed. More on that later.
I also watch several new movies which are worth mentioning because I believe that inspiration comes for several unlikely places.
I am loving this winter, I am absolutely filled with optimism. For the past few weeks I have been praying for some cooler weather and overcast days so that at least I can feel as though its is winter here in AZ. Surprise. Overcast days although great also mean that I no longer have natural light for product photos. I am spending more time in Photoshop than I’d like to admit.
You can’t have it all. Until later tonight, have a great evening!
