I know the Angel pictures are getting kind of repetitive, but I don't have anything else at the moment. I've been very weak-willed of late and kept the furnace at 62 starting from 1 o'clock on. I was going to do this new system of running it warm for 2 hours and then see how warm the house stayed, but I was feeling chilly even at 62 so I somehow never tottered over to the thermostat to turn it down. I had a lovely surprise today. A belated Christmas card, a note and gift from the wonderful photographer Corinne Botz. I met Corinne when I had my agoraphobia column and she was doing a series of photos of agoraphobics. Right now she's working on something called The Secret Life of Objects. Anyway, she sent me a book with the wonderful title, THE FASTER I WALK THE SMALLER I AM by Kjersti A. Skomsvold. The first sentence reads as follows: "I like it when I can be done with something. Like a knitted ear warmer, like winter, spring summer, fall." I can't wait to read it. It was such a nice surprise too. And I listened to a teleconference lecture by Jean Houston. I probably would have skipped it but I had forwarded the link to a friend and she said she was going to listen so I decided to do so too. Of course it's meant to entice you to a course that costs money, but there was still some good stuff worth hearing. Other than that, it was a quiet day with nothing much to report. I'm still trying to work up my courage to call the one of the debt relief places and see if they can help me find a way to pay down my debts faster. I have a feeling this is going to be one of those six months of procrastination things, but this agency (NFCC) is supposed to be free or cheap and trustworthy.
Think maybe I'll share the latest Stewart and Colbert SuperPac ad. Pure genius. They did a joint segment on the Daily Show this evening which was so brilliant that I will hopefully remember to share it tomorrow, with apologies to those in Europe who apparently can't get those videos to run.
Some things I'm grateful for today: (Items in red are pre-gratitude, me trying to open my heart, mind, body and spirit to abundance and in so doing to inspire/invoke assistance from the Creative Forces of the Universe, who I hope will shower me with truckloads of money, clothes dryers and lots of other wonderful things.)
