7YO:  What do you get when you cross YouTube, Twitter and Facebook?

Me: I don’t know.  What do you get?

7YO: You Twitter Face.

5YO: What does that even mean?

7YO: A web site that wastes all your time.

Wonder what gives them that idea?

We weren’t there to learn how to play them, we where there to experience healing with sound.

Don’t knock it till you try it.  I’ve heard both the bowls and the didgeridoo before but not like this.  I’ve never heard a didge live.  Wow does it fill a room.

It felt so good to just lay there and have all these great sounds going on around and vibrating the room.  I could have been there all day.  Beautiful sounds.  One of the instructors brought up the walls of Jericho coming down to trumpets vibrating at the right vibration and I tell you, I can believe it.

Our most recent coffee/espresso maker is unbelievable.  Expensive, yes.  But we figured, as much as we were spending at Starbucks, it would pay for itself in less than a year.  Would you believe that I haven’t had a Starbucks coffee in months?  We even take the machine with us when we go to Sedona for getaways.  It’s a Jura Capresso.

Every year we accumulate credit card points and get ourselves something special.  After tasting coffee from one of these machines at a friends house we were determined to get one!  Our points translated into a Williams Sonoma gift card and the rest is history.  If you love good coffee, you will not regret this investment.  I GUARANTEE it.  I now know that it’s not just the beans you use, it’s the process in which the coffee is made too.

Oh.  And the picture up there is not a latte, which the machine can do too.  It’s a picture of what the coffee looks like when it’s freshly brewed…a thin layer of froth.

Wouldn’t you know it?  That night they were eaten again.  I decided that it was too painful to work on them, trim them, make sure they’re watered, watch them grow and anticipate the blooms just to be deflated by something I couldn’t control.  ::sigh::  I considered my dad’s advice again.

Last night while laying in bed watching tv I heard something.  My immediate thought was that it was the javelinas, but what the heck could they be doing that was so loud? Second thought was, oh no, maybe it’s a person.  So I got up and looked out the window.  Sure enough, javelinas.  They had knocked over our garbage can.  One of those BIG plastic ones that the trucks pick up and dump into the truck.  I have no idea how they did it.

I watched them for a long time, prodding the top open with their snouts and pushing it around the yard.  They’re not that big but they are strong!  I watched as they ate old chicken parmesan and pasta, a little old sushi and some old fried chicken, bones and all.  I wondered if they’d get sick.  I pondered the idea of poisoning my garbage for them.  I wondered when they were going to go away for good. Ever?

As you can see, this product clearly states:  Age Intervention.  I’m guessing that the aim is to make you look and feel younger, erasing fine lines, blah blah blah.  Any good product that helps with this is trying to help you feel younger, yes?  So tell me then…

Why do they print the directions so darn small that you can’t read them?  Nothing says “you’re getting older” to me than not being able to read small print.  Thank you very much.
