Sharing a quote with ya'll tonight.

Change
Rains came yesterday evening, for the first time in months we had rain during the night. The weather guys say more tonight and tomorrow. Our world looks so different today. Everything looks alive and vibrant. The temps have dropped about 15 degrees, today was around 80 with a breeze. It was heavenly. A true change in the weather.
A real cold front is suppose to move through next weekend, I can hardly wait. I'll be wearing those boots and sweaters before you know it. I told Jordan today, we have to start making plans for a weenie roast!
It seems the past couple of months our weekends have been non-stop, this one has been no different.
I hope this is a good week for all of you, be kind, spread joy, laugh every day.

Frog Ribs
Rick does the local Frog Festival website which was today. Once again it was hot as blazes and I debated on going or staying home. I decided to go for two reasons, the first, I always see people I haven't seen in years and two, a friend I went to high school always has a booth there and he cooks ribs. Anyone who has ever eaten my BBQ ribs will tell you they are good, but his are great!!
We brought a slab home and we both ate ourselves silly. I wish I could send you all just a taste. But, between Rick, me and Jordan there are no more.

I hope your Friday has been a good one. We broke more heat records today and more to come tomorrow.
Spread some joy, be kind and if you actually have fall where you live, please enjoy and be grateful.

Plasticity
In my pain management classes on Thursdays we talk often about the plasticity of the brain. If you have not read or heard people in science and medicine talk about this subject, do yourself a favor and read, "The Brain That Changes It Self" by Norman Doidge, M.D.
The last several courses I have studied, everything from meditation to chronic pain to yoga have all included lectures on plasticity of the brain. For the past few months I have been working on myself, rewiring my brain to function even with the damage from the Meniere's.
This brain science has been used with stroke victims, addictions, chronic pain, so many different health concerns. The more I study about it, the more fascinating it becomes because of the possibilities.
I am exhausted, as always on Thursdays and that is ok. Thursdays give me the opportunity to see results, good results from my teaching.
Tomorrow be kind, spread joy and at least once, laugh out loud.

Thirsty
Our magnificent dogwood is so thirsty. The tree is one of the first things you see as you enter our driveway. In the spring it looks like a massive white cloud and in the fall when the leaves turn red it is glorious.
All the kids have climbed its loving limbs. I wrote a story a long time ago about it called The Magic Tree. That's what the kids have always called it.
Each day I walk by her and tell her to hang on. I know the rain is coming. We hit 100 degrees today.
The weather guys swear rain and cooler rain will make an appearance this weekend. I hope so.
