Pretty Sure This is Rambling

So, I received a funny e-mail depicting characterized personalities in Utah as Barbie dolls. It was a highly amusing e-mail. I was going to post it here for everyone's enjoyment, but it was incredibly slow going & the longer I worked at it the more convinced I became that some people would just be offended. So, in efforts to keep the peace & because I'm feeling a bit lazy (and need to clean my room) I've decided that if you'd like the e-mail let me know. I know I already owe it to 2 of you, but I'm not sure if I have correct e-mail addresses. I'll get it to you soon. No worries. In short, this highly pointless & boring post was brought to you by...me. Wow. I'll do better next time. (I hope.) I know. I'll post a fun picture with it! That will help make up for its lack of shine.



This is a picture of one side of a covered bridge that I saw in the Philippines. Many of the walls & fences in this town were painted to match this pattern. I really appreciated that these people who seemed to have so much less than I did at home had worked to make their town beautiful. How much I truly take for granted! If only I could learn to not simply make do with what I've been given, but to use what I've been given to improve the world around me. Sometimes I wonder which of us truly has been blessed with more.

I agree Rebz. I often wonder why we can't be happier with less?

Nice. "I am not repeating myself, I am not repeating myself!"

No worries. "Love means never having to say you're sorry"(What's Up, Doc?). ;)
