Your holiday sounded so idylic! (shame about the in-laws) That book sounds as though it's really doing the trick with banishing negative thoughts and feelings.
It's helping with this weeks string of atrocities too...the author helps us understand how our worry and stress does nothing to help or change the World. He talks about reading the newspaper and the terrible events...Wars, Epidemics, Earthquakes, Deaths, etc., etc., etc.,. How does he make his point? The newspaper he is reading is from 30 years ago, but it could be a newspaper from any year, or any day. The worry that our fathers had when they read that news did nothing to change the situation....
.....babble, babble, babble....sorry, not making much sense, just a little too much going on and nothing that I can do about it!
I cannot wait to see you in real life if Saraloveswelshcobs' description of you is anything to go by!
Bejing sounds amazing and I would just LOVE to come. I'm just afraid that tourism might boom following the Olympics and I can't bare being around too many tourists ... I'm such a hypocrite! LOL I wanted to go to China this year, but I'm already booked for this year ... the far-east no less... doh!
I know exactly what you mean...I'm fleeing the Jing during the Olympics!!!
But, anytime you do want to brave the crowds, just let me know, you are more than welcome, I would love to show you around.
You look so amazing. Sometimes I look at yours and others' pictures and admire you guys so much as I know how bad I am at sticking to things. I also really love your avatar. I'm trying to find a larger version of it so I can have a proper good gawp... I'm such a nosy cow.. lol.
Thanks
But you know how very vain I am!!!
I really like my new avatar pic too, I was being interviewed for a magazine and it was a very natural pic.....
Anyway I hope your well and you're able to log back on to Minimins soon... what is the time difference?
Incredibly busy at the moment and having a bit of a difficult phase with Eiriana so I'm not logging on half as much as I would like to <or need to>. We're 7 hours in front now (8 in the winter)
P.S - CHANGE YOUR DAMN USER NAME to 'Slim'n'Sexy in the Jing' - cos thats what you are.
Thats an order! lol
P.S - are you OK? My mind thought of you immediately once I heard about the earthquake.
Lots of hugs and love ... xx
Thank you,CC, we're all OK, very sad and worried of course, hoping and praying that the numbers don't keep escalating.
Love to you CahChing, I'm so sorry that I haven't been on your thread for a while, I promise I will find time soon, very soon to catch up with you.
