T.O.D.I suppose I should say health, but I will be honest and say wealth.
This morning I went for a walk, and this is what I saw:
DR Ben - RE: A cover for your e-reader - Check with those sidewalk vendors - particularly the ones set up near Best Buy and the Apple Store. And you might even find one in a "Dollar Store" type of store.
The New Year has traditionally been a time for new beginnings, specifically for making resolutions to improve ourselves. Just the thought of trying to do this plunges me into discouragement and depression. Not that there’s nothing to change, but deciding to do something is so often like fighting fire with a can of gasoline. We more often need to un-do things … to let go of things … to forget things, including our many mistakes of the past year.Anthony de Mello, an Indian Jesuit priest with an interest in Eastern philosophy and religion, once wrote a meditation which stuck in my mind. I think it has Zen origins, and pictures a man sitting on a riverbank with boats constantly floating past. Some of them please him, some are repugnant and disturbing. “Let them all go past and calmly keep your eyes on the river”, he advises.2010 was a large, 365-day boat which has now passed by, and 2011 is just coming into view. Perhaps if we look at the water as our first point of focus in these cold, dark weeks our year will remain ‘new’ and happy until it too slides out of focus into the next Happy New Year.
DR Ben, the Vera Bradley Mini Hipster is a great e-reader case, but, I think, not exactly your style!

A year of BOUNTIFUL and BEAUTIFUL things.
If bk is writing another Hofstetter mystery, I guess I'd better read the latest one. I had started it but I don't know what happened and I didn't finish it.
Matthew, I think I could eat a whole plate of that asparagus. Yum.
