LSNED DAY 5: Learning to relax....

Trying hard on that. It's hard after a busy day at work and not think about the day's events. Hard for me--I'm the type who thinks over and over again what occured, how I handled difficult situations; any ways I could have done them better; things I shouldn't have said versus things I should have done that would have made a big difference; and on and on and on.....

As Mick Jagger would sing it, " I can't get no satisfaction....."

It was around this time when I spent the night on a more creative thinking and around this time when I came up with this blog "LITTLE ONE". Originally, my sole purpose was to reconnect with close friends and families who are away from me. I started writing newsletters when I moved to the Island every Christmas and another time of the year just to let others know that I'm still existing here.

Then I thought hey, what's with a blog? I heard a lot about it, read some about people's lives they call blog and thought, that might be a good idea!

And I knew without second thoughts what I'd call it.

Mom would call me little one because she has a sister whose name Nancy so turns out that she has to be named big Nancy and I'm the little one. So for people not to get confused, mom had to call me the little 1.

And that's the birth of Little One and for a while, I kept it secret. I kept it to myself and would send bits and pieces to closed ones that I know would be interested. You can't even find the right Little One on Google.

It's around this time of year last year so I'm safe to say that this is our First Year Anniversary blogging blahs. Wow! One year and I thought I'd be hiding forever. But here we are folks, still alive and kicking!

**Congratulations Little1, to my honey who's there to assist and to you my enthusiastic readers!**

Maybe we should all celebrate with something, hmmm, thinking.....

You'd think I'm relaxed on my first day off? Hmmm... I'm not usually but I try. I even bought some books today from Chapters (big sales! yoo hoo!), and maybe I can use some reading before bed to put me into a deep undisturbed slumber the entire evening. Actually, I was on a mission: to search for a particular book that I would need for this upcoming class with Cathy Zielske.

Unfortunately, Chapters didn't have it and it will take 3 weeks to get here so I might as well get it from Amazon which is less than half the price of what I'll pay at Chapters.

Do you think I'd be able to relax tonight? Maybe after sorting a few inspiring lines from the "The Power", hopefully... Besides, you attract what you think and what I think is I need to go to bed right now and so do you. Lesson for tonight dear students, bedtime! Come rain ( which is how it looks like out there, wet evening as the weather news had it), come shine, don't let the bedbug bites.

Nighty-night!
