Dogs

Dogs are the blessing in
our lives. 
Nothing else will ever
love us without
judgement
the way a dog does.

Life

In politics as well as in everyday life, 
one should be guided solely by Truth and Justice

Dancing in the Rain





Wet feet, inside out umbrella, frizzy hair,
autumn...
Time to remember how to
Dance in the Rain.

Toys and Pizza

Well, it happened! I got my website up and running.  It is easier to make wooden toys then to build a website...Needs a lot of work but what a feeling of relief.  www.StarKidToys.com/ 



It's not too much different then putting together a pizza bar for friends and family. You have to get your domain running, then build your main site. The dough of the website. Then you start adding the elements, pictures, wording, the sale point.  See, not much different than making pizza!

My family loved pizza night. It was always a great choice for birthday parties. What kid doesn't like pizza? I would make the dough, let it rise, then make nice round balls of dough for each person's pizza. Once they got their dough in the shape and thickness they wanted, there was an assortment of toppings and cheese to build their pizza with. Then the baking, oh the aroma of baking pizza! And after all the waiting, enjoying it!


I finally found the courage to write him a message. Please don't let me fall, catch me.....

Have you ever had a period in your life where no matter what you do Life just keeps knocking you down? I'm normally a cheerful, positive person with complete faith in "I'm always in the exact place I need to be".

The last two weeks I'm in serious doubt about the validity of this statement. Have I traipsed through life dumbly excepting that which is only a pipe dream?

What is a Disability?

I received bad news last night that was devastating. My little grandson was born to a mother who used meth and opiates while she was pregnant with him. He has some problems and had been diagnosed with ADHD, Autism Spectrum, RAD, PTSD among a few others. It has taken 4 years to get approval for neuro testing but we finally were able to get him in to see a specialist. The results are worse than I expected. He is in the 5th percentile of severe neuro disorders. My heart is breaking.  He is such an intelligent little guy. His intelligence is 123% higher than average. WOW! But I'm not sure where we go from here...

Disillusioned?

Have you ever been so disillusioned by choices out of your control that you don't know what to believe or which way to turn?


Have you also noticed that when one is disillusioned by his or her own life choices, they coincide with the world they live in?  Again, coincidence or synchronicity?


That's where I am. Normally I can let of something I have no control over, but this one I can't, probably because I can't figure out the right and wrong of the decisions my country is making.


I used to believe that these political decisions by our administration were made to protect this country and its people, and to provide our allies with the troops necessary to protect their country and people. But the recent events and the atrocities against innocent people has caused me to question this.


I feel that I am awakening from my American dream stupor which has made me start searching for the questions to ask in order to find the truths. I'm not sure if I want to stay blinded and ignorant, or know the answers to that which I am seeking.
