Thoughts...

Driving home... I thought

1. It is sweet when five year olds give you compliments.

2. I was reading my journal last night and couldn't help but think why did I stay in a bad relationship for so long? (I'm really happy now though)

3. I am beginning to have a love affair with cooking. 

4. I used to like eggs scrambled and now I like them sunny side up. 

that is all for now I guess... 

My thoughts today with regards to Produce

So these are some beautiful flowers that I got for $10 at the Dallas Farmer's Market. They were a beautiful addition to the kitchen table, but they made me homesick for the Fayetteville FM. It was definitely more small town than here. I can't complain though. Blueberries, Strawberries, Raspberries, and Brussel sprouts were my other purchases. :) I'll be going back open daily 8-6!
So I love Wal Mart don't get me wrong. I don't think anyone who has lived in NWA can have a beef with them. However, today I go to the store to buy bananas to make homemade banana pudding for a friend and all they have are unripe bananas. Green! and this is a selling point for them. The sign said not ripe for your convenience... and if you want them ripe sooner put them in a bag with an apple and they will be ripe tomorrow... first of all what about all the people that get a hankerin for a banana and go to walmart... they are shit out of luck. apparently. As someone who doesn't really like bananas I don't really care except in instances like tonight where Walmart screws with me!! 

Since Dec.

So this actually hasn't been since Dec but I love this pic and wanted to see if I could download picts onto my blog... 

I have been really struck lately by how other people's pain affects me. I become like a sponge and soak it up. Maybe in a attempt to empathize, take some of theirs away... seem more appropriate in my love or gesturing towards them. . . or maybe because its this weird sadistic thing about me. 

help

I don't know how to find people on here... can someone help me?

Embriodery and Blogging

So i have taken up embriodery, and I cook and clean mostly just cook in my underwear late at night for enjoyment so I thought I need to balance those with some hobby that spinster women age 50+ don't do: like blogging, like my logic? I know I don't have the grammer or spelling or ability to turn a phrase but I am going to aspire anyway.

So what to say...

I wouldn't think to write on here what I write in my journal for obvious reasons (your reading this) but I think my entry from last night is censored and demure enough to go out the the masses (or just Linda!)

A guy I knew had a list of Jason's Rules to live by beside his bed. There were probably 75 things some as simple as Fish more, or Don't suck. A personal favorite. So i decided to start Cynthia's rules to live by:

1. Go with your gut
2. Do what you think don't let unaffected third parties judgement matter
3. Be nice, say what you mean, don't be snippy
4. Don't feel bad to be who you are
5. Don't be with someone who makes you feel bad about yourself
6. Always keep promises to yourself (borrowed)

I hope to be adding to the list and posting more even though I feel like blogging is kinda like sending your thoughts in a bottle into the ocean. Embriodery is just sewing.
