Saturday Night Scribe: Blogging by Candlelight

(Jack the Cat with Remote, February 2008)

Hello,

It's actually been almost a week since my last posting! Perhaps a case of mid-winter writer's block? No... I was writing in a different capacity last week; cranking out two reports: a monthly narrative and a nineteen-page annual report for libraryland. So glad it's done and off my back so I can come back to writing more blogs.

One night last week, Jack the Cat was sitting in an upright position like a human. So, we slipped the remote controller under his paw and took this photograph. I wonder what TV show he was watching?

Last night, we hosted film night with a women's group and it was so much fun! There were about fifteen of us...and Steve.(He hid after sampling the food.) We had an anti-Valentine theme and watched the following movie entitled The Shape of Things. It's arty, based on a stage play, and quite cynical. I enjoyed it. The four main characters were a trip. The soiree ended last night, or should I say this morning at 1:15 a.m. Having friends hang around late (or early) is a sign of a happy party. :)

This morning I paid for my late-night entertaining. The Saturday morning taekwondo was especially brutal for me; but I love and appreciate the cardio. We were rolling on mats, running and doing flying sidekicks (which was fun) on top of bagwork (which was hard for me today.)

I feel so much better after being there, no matter how tired I am from the week, feeling stronger in mind-body-spirit.

I am currently reading a book I found on the blog and requested it to be ordered for libraryland:

To-Do List by Sasha Cagen. (Info about Sasha and the book is listed here.) It's a compilation of lists written and sent by people from all proverbial walks of life from the basic grocery list to the meaning -of-life lists. (I learned I am not the only one who writes a list after the tasks are completed, as scratching them off is such a feeling of accomplishment!)

I find that creating lists gets the random thoughts out of my head and onto the page and therefore I am controlling the tasks (instead of the reverse.) This is a wise tip from Steve.

Here is my To-Do List for Tomorrow:

1.) Sleep in

2.) Eat Breakfast

3.) Read Sunday paper (possibly in the p.m. if I sleep too late.)

4.) Check Email (same as #3)

5.) Get ready for Church (10 a.m.)

6.) Attend Services (Faith Apostolic this week.)

7.) Go to mall and get a real cell phone

8.) Pay Bills

9.) Practice forms for Taekwondo

10.) Clean master bedroom

11.) Ice skate

12.) Prepare for the week (write another list of what I need to do.)

That should be enough for tomorrow. ;)

Love,

Lolo

P.S. Greenie turned 60,000 miles today!
