"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other one is as though everything is a miracle." Albert Einstein

So - I think I will go with the thought that 'everything is a miracle'! Who knows what this day will bring to me, but I believe in a Master Plan, so no worries for me. What is supposed to happen, will happen; and I will do my best to appreciate it all.

Today is actually my Friday! Taking a day off from the real job to pursue the work of the dream job (LWD). Also, kind of excited - heading down to see Joel Osteen tomorrow night! I've never seen him live before, only his great TV show, so hopefully the entire program will be uplifting and entertaining.

My Little Wooden Doll (above) is always reminding me that she needs new clothes! So wearing her little plaid pants (which I love and wish I had) and her sweatshirt top with lots of silver glitter, she keeps looking at me as though to say "the leaves are falling and time is rushing by" and we have much to do!

"Now the days grow cold,
As the year grows old,
And the meadows are brown and sere;
Brave robin redbreast
Has gone from his nest,
for this is the Fall of the year."


November 1st! How quickly the year has passed. Two full months left of 2011 - so let's make the most of these chilly precursor days to Winter.

Working on our Little Wooden Doll's winter wardrobe - so many activities for November and December! The "real" job takes sooooo much of my time and so too does the teaching, but one pays the bills and one feeds my heart - so all is good and I will always find time for LWD.

November is the month of our Thanksgiving - much to look forward to and makes me think of Irving Berlin's line: "Got no checks, got no banks. Still I'd like to express my thanks -I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night."
