Father, Mother, God,
Thank you for your presence
during the hard and mean days.
For then we have you to lean upon.
Thank you for your presence
during the bright and sunny days,
for then we can share that which we have
with those who have less.
And thank you for you presence
during the Holy Days, for then we are able
to celebrate you and our families
and our friends.
For those who have no voice,
we ask you to speak.
For those who feel unworthy,
we ask you pour your love out
in waterfalls of tenderness.
For those who live in pain,
we ask you to bathe them
in the river of your healing.
For those who are lonely, we ask
you to keep them company.
For those who are depressed,
we ask you to shower upon them
the light of hope.
Dear Creator, You, the borderless
sea of substance, we ask you to give to all the
world that which we need most--Peace.

-Maya Angelou

NaBloPoMo is kicking my butt.

Monday

Why are Mondays always so crappy?

Is it just the nature of what we do on Mondays that make them so bad?

Or have we prepared ourselves to expect Mondays to be crappy so they are?

Do we create our own crappy Mondays?

I hate Mondays.

Post-Halloween Party

So, we had a Halloween party last night. It was a lot of fun - and a very late night. In all the hub-bub I totally missed posting to this blog for NaBloPoMo. However, I did manage to throw together another episode of Red on Green and I posted that on the show's blog. I'm hoping that the blog gods of NaBloPoMo will accept that as my blog post for yesterday. And if not, well that's okay, too. I'll just keep posting every day anyway.

It's only 6:30 pm here right now - but I am wiped. I think I'm going to zombie-out in front of the tv until I fall asleep. After I podcast, that is. :-)

I finally did it!!

I am happy to announce that I've finally created my first podcast!!!

Red on Green - One redhead's take on all things green.

Along with taking part in NaBloPoMo, I also discovered NaPodPoMo (National Podcast Posting Month) and I decided that there was no time like the present (and the next 30 days) to get my podcast started.

So, for the next 30 days I'm going to be posting small green tips to make our lives a little more eco friendly and then I'll start the "official" podcast in December.

Find the website for Red on Green here.

Time to go work on my next podcast!!! (You have no idea how long I've wanted to say that!!)

NaBloPoMo 2007

Welcome to the first of many (30 to be exact) blog posts for the month of November. I am participating in NaBloPoMo 2007 - National Blog Posting Month 2007!

The goal of NaBloPoMo is to post one blog entry every day for the month of November. Am I up to the task? You betcha!!!

NaBloPoMo is a spin off of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) in which the goal is to write a novel in the month of November. There is no way I could write a whole novel in a month - I'll be lucky if I can accomplish a blog post everyday! But I get entered into a drawing for some spiffy prizes if I manage to stay inspired. So, keep the encouragement and good ideas coming!

If you're a podcaster and have some free time you might try NaPodPoMo. I thought about using this as the change to launch my podcast (and I still might) but it seems like WAY too much work right now. Laziness for the win!
