    How very nice it is to have you back sharing with us at Two Shoes Tuesday, Joseph, I've missed you!! This was a really nice post, I have learned over the years to keep my cool far better than I did when I was young. You learn to fight the big battles and make peace with smaller issues. Keeping your calm means that you can deal with things rationally and it makes your life so much easier, and less stressful! I love your peaceful picture of blue sky too... nothing prettier! I love to watch our big Texas sky in the morning and evening when I drive to the city to work and return home!

    Joseph, this is so essential. We feel better and so does everyone around us. Wise words. Hug.

    Keeping calm is needed during stressful times. When one can't concentrate, take a break! It is cold here today and snowy but, unfortunately, it is supposed to warm up which I don't want:) I am a Canuck after all and it is the Christmas season:)

    Keeping calm under stress is a gift. A gift that is valuable to all.

Toy Cars And a New Computer!

Image
Look at all of my toy cars! I was just organizing them before I put them into a different box, but I had to move them a little early to make some roof for my new computer! So back into the box they went! I've always wanted to arrange my toy cars like this since I was a kid, when I would see them arranged like this in toy car collector magazines and books, I thought it looked pretty cool. Anyway I had to get a new computer because my laptop's screen finally went out and it was becoming slow. It would sometimes take couple of minutes to load a webpage, so I knew I had to get a new computer. I got a Lenovo from Microcenter. It's refurbished, but it looks and works like new. Microcenter also gives you a keyboard and mouse, but it doesn't come with a monitor unless you want one, but it will cost you  a little extra. The whole computer with keyboard and mouse cost a hundred dollars with thirty dollar shipping, very cheap and works better than my laptop.  The rea...

Surprise Sleet Showers in East Texas!

Image
(Sorry there might not be sound, the video quality is not to great.) Houston and most of east Texas, got some surprising sleet and snow showers today. It wasn't that surprising since the weather forecasters have been talking about it all week, but they weren't sure if any precipitation was going to form, or not and if the precipitation did occur, if it would fall down as snow, or sleet, so it was a surprise. The sleet pellets were really big too! At around 6:20 am, when the first sleet shower started to pass through my house, I thought that the sleet might have been freezing rain, or maybe ice pellets, but when I ran outside I saw that it was sleet that was falling. The sleet was as hard as ice, but as bright as snow. The sleet drops looked bigger than I remember, back when Houston got a sleet storm back in December, 2004. Which made me wonder at first if it was sleet, or just ice pellets, but it was sleet! I'm glad that it was sleet. I've bee...

Shoes!

Going to join a new meme today called Two Shoes Tuesday from Josie Two Shoes! How it works is each week Josie writes a one word prompt where you can then share a short story, poem, essay, thought, or, photo relating to that word. We'll since today's topic is about shoes...... These are my current ones! They are just regular tennis shoes that my dad got me last Christmas! As far as shoes go I usually like to get running shoes, like the ones pictured below..... These are my old shoes. I've had them since late 2007. I still use them, just not as often. Only when I have to get into the mud or, dirt. Or, when I feel like running, since they are running shoes! The only thing that I don't like about running shoes is that I slip easily when I walk on wet tiles. My new ones pictured above have a flat surface so, I don't slip as easily.... I like my new shoes better but, I sometimes miss my old running shoes! I like to run so, running shoes have always been my choice...
