Mi Corazon, Tu Corazon

Take care of your “corazons.”
That’s “hearts” in Spanish. I learned that word, not in high school Spanish, but in the movie, The Beverly Hills Chihuahua. (In case you missed it...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNUn0HHq7iw)
Take care of the corazons not only inside your body, but also the ones walking around outside of your body.
Do you remember the quote about your heart and having a child? It is from Elizabeth Stone, “Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.”

Love Your September

Let's tallk about how you love your September. What kinds of things do you usually do in this month? This awesome month when autumn officially greets us! Apple picking? County fairs? Put up fall decoratations in your house? Rake leaves? Bake pumpkin bread? Tailgate at football games?

So far I've spent mine down and out. Yes, it was the flu. I don't know when I have felt so rotten for so long. It was rough timing because I've got much left to do to finish the move. But guess what? It made me slow down.

Hubby brought home a pile of magazines for my flu entertainment. (I have to tell you: the daytime television thing got old very quickly. I see what so many of you mean now....150 channels and nothing to watch...hard to imagine.)

Anyway in one magazine, SELF, on page 38 was the most wonderful thing: MARYJANESFARM!!! Yay! It is so fabulous to see MaryJanesFarm getting the press it deserves!

The page is captioned "Love Your September."
