Magdalina

Yes, so the last entry was less than stimulating I agree. I mean as I look back I see it was a whim and not really worthy content at all, well outside the picture which has value to me perhaps. Any hoo moving forward...

Last night I had a dream I was house sitting on the banks of a great pond. For some reason festive lights strew the houses, and lite up the water which was often occasioned with vacationers. When I came to the house I was watching after I took a look around and went outside. I came to rest upon a rock wall only about a foot and a half tall when A blond women smiled at me. I quickly smiled back and wondered who she was and why she looked familiar. Just then I saw Magdalina running my way. She ran and wrapped her arms around me and gave me a big loving hug. It was then I realised that she and her mother came to watch the fireworks, so we sat down and did just that with Magdalina, or my little magnet, by my side. I can not tell you how much I enjoyed seeing my little girl again. Thouse were the best fire works I have ever sat through.

The Five Orange Pips

While orange pips have nothing to do with this blog, I thought it nice to tell you what Orange pips are. They are nothing more than seeds from oranges. The "Five Orange Pips" referred to in the heading of this blog are from a Sherlock Holmes story named "The Five Orange Pips".

Moving on toward our theme of finding ways to show your loved ones you care, I have the next five ways for you listed below. But before I would like to re-list two. Primarily for my gratification and secondly for your viewing pleasure.

7. Listen to their stories. Honestly this can be really hard for an extrovert like my self. But I am finding it very rewarding to find out more about the depths of who my friends are.

9. Answer their questions. Number 9 for me is cultural. When I say cultural what I'm really saying is growing up if you were asked a question you better have an answer. It seemed that a quick word turned away wrath better than a soft one in those circumstances.

And now for the moment we have all been waiting for...

26. Introduce them to your friends and family.

27. Make time to be with them.

28. Be excited when you see them.

29. Notice when they grow.

30. Remember their birthdays.

All I can say is I'm sorry. Truth is, I'd forget my own birthday if I didn't have to write it on each and every job application I've ever filled out.

ok, end of blog.
