EXPELLED EXPOSED
The movie EXPELLED is dangerous and non-scientific drivel at it's worst. Much of the movie is also being targeted over questions of plagarism-- yes they are being sued for plagarism. Save your money for something worthwhile. Don't expose your brain to this crap-- the only thing it will do is kill brain cells.

Dylan Matthew
entered the world on February 18th, 2009 in Reno, Nevada
His mother is my darling sister-in-law(she's really my sister in my heart) Mary and my brother Jerome(my baby brother is a daddy y'all- how exciting is that!)
We are all so happy and Blessed to have this new person join our family.
He has 7 cousins waiting to play with him. They range in age from 21 to 14 month old twins!
I can't wait until they are all together at grandmother Betty's house- hope she can still juggle and roller skate.
Winter Begins
December 22nd is the shortest day of the year around here---- it brings thoughts of not only cold and winter but of the beauty and gift of the light and warmth of our own star- our Sun!
As the day dawns on December 23rd may you have peace and hope knowing that each day will be longer than the one before....
Winter solstice blessings on you all.
My beloved and dear friend Kim- female chimpanzee died quietly in her sleep November 8th, 2007.
I love you sweetheart- I do not think it has really hit me yet that you are gone. I talk about your death but I'm still getting used to the idea.
No one will ever call you 'monkey' again and never will you have to know the dishonor that was heaped upon you by Gerber while you were young. Here's to nail polish and lipstick and peanut butter and freedom and at long last peace.
Cancelled
I will not be hosting this event this year.
Sorry
It is hot Arkansas August outside- but soon- in just a few short weeks- the seasons will begin to turn once again.
Join me Sunday September 23rd, 2007 at sunset at Pinnacle Mountain State Park to welcome and celebrate the Autumnal Equonox!
Details to come so check back soon.
update on 8/18/07:
tentative events-- all free-- open to all- families welcome(no childcare available)- this is a public state park so anyone can attend- but we do ask you be respectful and prepared to participate
*at sundown we will begin
* welcoming and lighting of the fire(probably no bonfire, but possibly some candles and sage)
*speaking on what this is, why we do it, history of autumn celebrations, what is the equinox, etc
*time for anyone who wishes to speak (but please this is not a place for debate, religious prostelytizing, you will be asked to move along)

I just received the news that I am going
to be an
AUNT
again, for the 6th time!
Congratulations to my brother Jerome and his wife Mary on the news of their first child (my other brother has already done this five times!)!
I can't even begin to express how I feel.
Words fail at times like this.
I can't wait- I'm moving to Reno(not really but I could flap my arms and fly out at this moment!)
I've discovered a new addiction
Traffic Web-Cameras in Tucson, Those who know me know that Tucson is my favorite city on the planet! So when I found out that there are several web-cams in the city I was instantly hooked.
I was able to watch the 4th of July fireworks from my computer in the dispatch room here in Arkansas.
I also get to watch the beautiful sunset almost nightly via these cameras--- they are a true blessing to me.

It never ceases to amaze me that we are made up of the same stuff as stars- the same chemicals and such.
Ain't nature grand!
Try it one night soon- take a blanket outside and lay on it and just look UP. It's a very peaceful way to commune with the universe.
And that would be 2001 you are listening to- what else to help celebrate the universe!
That baby girl is 20!

That baby girl I've told you all about is 20 years old.
my goodness....
I love you kiddo
sudden loss
A very precious being died on Tuesday February 13th. His name was Richard and he was a 32 year old male chimpanzee at the Little Rock Zoo.
I knew Richard through my volunteer work in enrichment at the zoo.
His loss is stunning to say the least- I am nearly speechless and my heart is broken.
Dearest Richard
Rest in peace big guy. I'll not forget you , it was and will continue to be a privilege and an honor to have been a part of your life. The touch of your influence will follow me all my days. Many who were ignorant simply called you "monkey"-- it is those of us who are truly blessed who knew the APE you were. I am proud to share 98% of my genes with such as you- you were truly family.
Me
Happy Spring
Ok-Ok so it is still deep dark winter
but
SOON!
