Wow! Can Hillary speak specifically and distinctly and to the point or what? I was totally impressed. I truly think that she is the best woman to be a presidential candidate and ultimately president. She says. "Make sure I keep my promises" She challenges we the people to "keep me accountable". She asked us to check out her website http://www.hillaryclinton.com/ where she has typed up her specific plans.
She spoke in debt regarding foreign affairs, specially, Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan. And spoke specially about how we would response if Iran attack Israel.
George Stephanopoulos was tough on her and pushed her to clarify her position on NAFTA which President Clinton signed into action in 1995 when we had a republican Congress and the nation was prosperous and people were working. But, she admits we didn't know then what we know now. And it's true the world's economy is constantly changing. Times were good when some companies shipped some manufacturing overseas but Bush gave companies more incentives to put manufacturing overseas by giving companies tax breaks. What Bush should have done was make it more worth while for companies to keep manufacturing here.
Hillary says she will update and modify NAFTA to reflect the sign of the times. What happened in the past is done, we need to make adjusts to fit the economy of today and the future. It's as simple as that.
But people are ignorance, especially slanted, one sided, news people, who like to get people stirred up and keep them that way for rating purposes. People are ignorance because they keep looking at what went on in the past regarding Hillary voting for the war. To not vote for the war at the time would have been unpatriotic (Mr Obama!).
In summary, I was very impressed with Hillary, she'll knock the socks right off of McCain. It's a done deal.
Personally, I can't stand to listen to Obama - the ah, ah, ah, stumbling and mumbling and hand waving and looking for frigging serious. God, I hope I don't have to endure four years of that.
May I remind everyone, Obama had only one year in the Senate, one year, before he decided that he was presidential material. One year. And as I have mentioned in previous entries, it certainly appears to me that he was clueless when he voted in the Senate. I certainly do not want him signing off or not signing off on bills because he doesn't understand them and is afraid to admit it. Well, that is he'll sign them or not depending if he hasn't lost them on his desk.
Anyway, I hope to God, people think about this. It's serious. Who you vote for can have a serious affect on your future. And Hillary can multitask. The woman is phenomenal.

grateful!
You bet I am thanking the universe. I want my car to last for 200,000 more miles at least. I love my car. It's perfect! The perfect size SUV before they all grew up to become giants. It's a 1998 Toyota Rav 4 and one of the first sporty SUV to be manufacturered . It's dependable! It's as good as the day I bought it. I take it to the dealer for regular maintenance. I have 107,000 miles on it now and it's sound and solid and wonderful! So I ask please make it last and keep it out of accidents and free from mistakes orignated by me or others. Thank you!
Hey universe, please do the same for me since I am as good as day one too! No aches, no pains, no compliants. I'm healthy. I'm very fortunate and I know it! Thanks for my good health and youthfulness! And my good looks and my gift of concerned interactions. I have friends of all ages and am very fortunate.
So, yes, I am grateful for my home and all of my possessions and myself and my many talents, and gifts. Thanks - great job!
I know the universe watches out for me. I did two women on the other side a favor fairly recently. Hey! It was my pleasure! I hope, rather, I know that they are very happy. You see there was a happy ending to that story. Since then too, I have become more giving and helpful to my friends. E and G, I miss M but I have to let it go, for now anyway. Take care of her. I hope she is doing well. Yes, if and when I see her with another I will be jealous. Trust me - I will be jealous - I love sex! I will be jealous! We had a perfect afternoon delight relationship until we both made it more - too many plans to do things together out of town. No can do. She wasn't my type and more importantly she is married.
But, if the good doctor or someone so like her came along married or not, I'm in there! I'll do afternoon delights for the rest of my life. Okay, Okay, I can hear the lectures already!
Let me ask you this. Do you know how many gay women there are that are married due to social pressures or to have a stable home for their kids and they miss the touch of a woman. Hey, it's only love. It's only sanity and I'm sure it's been going on for centuries - women having women on the side. Oh, M's husband knew about his wife and myself. Oh, she wanted me to meet him. She wanted us to be a family, I think. Hell, she had a house not far from her house with him for her lover at one time. Amazing!
You know a piece of paper doesn't stop a heart from beating - love happens! I met a wonderful, warm, lovely woman four years ago. We had a moment. It was warm and wonderful. I had never felt so loved in all my life. She saved my life! An embrace, a hint at more....saved my life. The heavens sent her. The universe sent an angel to give me life - emotionally, little did I know, I had died inside. She brought me hope. I will love her until the day I die. You know something permanent happened to me when our hearts came so close together! I thank the universe! It was magical - truly magical. I was happy to repay the universe and return the favor and I did.
Yes, my mission was to get M to Ezekiel, because E had me help her get M to speak with Ezekiel so M could help E reunite with G on the other side . See, E and G were both deceased. They died about a year apart. M had an affair with E during E's 30 year relationship with G. Think maybe G wasn't speaking to E because of it? Anyway, M spoke with Ezekiel ( a channeled spirit) and E was there waiting to speak to M...and on it went.
After I met M she often spoke of E and told me about her artistic abilities and her relationship with G and her affair with M. One time I found myself saying. "I think E wants watches over you" and another time I suddenly said. "I think E would like to speak with you." Guess who was putting those sudden bursts of words into my head and out of my mouth - E! Hello!
So I found out that they, on the other side, not only watch out for us, but maybe, just maybe, engage us in missions to serve their purposes too. So, in my books, E and G owe me so I am having a wonderful time collecting. Oh, I think E and G are just getting started with "my" fun.
Mentally and spiritually I let them know that I am open to more missions like what I did. Actually, it was fabulous because for the first time in my life I was sure footed and confident. I have courage and said things to people I wondered where it was coming from. No, actually, I felt a magicalness when it all happened. It was wonderful! Well, they (E too) were leading me on the way of the journey of "their" mission. Oh, and I got much out of it - wonderful sex. So the course was ran... now I believe I am on another mission - oh it's in the works. And sometimes in retrospect we see many little missions we were on and really didn't realize them. Life is fun and exciting and wonderful. I love amazing, wonderful, magical days. Thank you! Thank you for all of me and my stuff too. Please keep up healthy, safe and wonderful. And my friends too - I am thanking you in their behalf because they might forget to.

Had a Busy Day
First of all I wish to thank the universe and my spirit guides for all of my many blessings of good health, safety, and ability to do some many active things. And thanks for keeping me, my car, my home, my friends safe. I thank you and if my friends forget I thank you for them.
I love my car and I thank you for keeping it running as good as the day I bought it ten years ago. And thanks so much for keeping it looking good and out of accidents or dumb situation I could put it in and may not be good for the car. Thanks so much. Don't want car payments!
Thanks for my health and youthfuless I really appreciate it and thanks for my many friends and the fun we have spending time together. I am very fortunate.
My ex's birthday is tomorrow and she and I spent a very nice afternoon together I got her a Visa gift card and told her to play a round of golf on me tomorrow. And I took her to luck. She is the coolest and I am very glad to have her in my life.
At times I miss the woman I was dating this past year or so. But, I must to go and resist the urge to call her. I resist the urge because I don't want to hank her around. What if I begin to see her and change my mind again. Not good! So I wait I miss and feel her pain but I don't want her to change her life for me because I don't think we were really compatible. So sometimes things just have to end. Some things are only meant to last a short time.
So I miss her but I am fine and very busy. Today I was very busy. Before I had lunch with my ex and picked my friend up from the airport. Later on I got together with my running group and ran about four miles and now have my leg propped with ice on it. I'm tired I'll go to bed soon.
I had a great magical day and I thank the universe. They say that when your heart aches - that we are looking for our spirit. Interesting! I always thought I found my spirit because I am happy in my skin and I know I am very blessed. I've had many loving spirits touch my life; some from the other side, some from this side - on earth. And thanks for the good doctor and please take care of her - she remains in my heart.

Could get Lazy
I'm resting my leg again today because it was hurting a bit after running on it last night for about three miles with the running group. I'll go to yoga this evening - it'll be fine.
I miss the good doctor today. I must have hit my head the other day when I fell - again. I guess. I'm just a humble servant of the universe I guess living in the moment - no past no future. I don't plan. I don't remember. Love is out of reach.
It's amazing - if I get physically active I don't get despressed. In that respect yoga will be good for me this evening. In the morning I'll pick my friend up from the airport. I have art in the afternoon. In the evening I'll run. My young coupled friends like me. In a way I envy them. They are in a fun and interesting phrase of their lives - but all of life should be that way.
I have a hard time with love. I did better with the afternoon delight thing but it progressed into us being a couple - on the side of her marriage. Yes, married - I said. (which would be just perfectly fine if she were more my type. I could do that secret afternnoon delight thing). I should have kept it just afternoons - but she planned bike trips and running trips and before you know it I'm inviting her to my stuff and then it blew up. She's not my type - too butch! A man is a man I don't care what body you are in - they teach, preach, and drive the car. Not gentle. Not affectionate. Right to the sex (yes, pretty much)- like going to work. Maybe that's way I couldn't do it anymore.
I have a heart. I want someone I like to go to loft open houses with, free concerts in the park, things like that. Laugh together - be on the same spiritual plane with. I miss the good doctor. A warm heart - would be very nice. She'll meet me half way. Plays in the park - leaving at intermission to go home and have more wine and add sex will be missed this year. It was fun.
I miss the sex. I hope it's not a real long summer - lonely. She needs to drop out of the sky now - she needs to meet me half way. It's hard to find feminine lesbians, who are closer to my age, who are physcially well and emotionally happy and fit and trim and active. Why are all active women straight? I am I damned? It's very hard to be a lesbian - very.
Don't like butch - too much like men. Maybe I"ll go straight! That's impossible I could never go straight - it's not in my makeup. I lived the straight life in my thirites. Then I gave up. Then I lived with a very good friend for a long time. And then I got a crush on an angel - and that hasn't fadded, not with the younger woman, and not with the woman my age...the crush on the angel remains - always on the back of my mind.
I need physical contact or I fear I'll die or break down and call the past up. Common sense stops me. I don't want to get her here and tell her no again - for I fear it will happen again. God, I need the touch of a woman. It's only been a whole frigging month?
Oh, I'll survive! I'm better alone anyway - don't have to worry about anyone's feelings. Don't have to please. I'll feel better after I walk with my friend on Friday morning - she has rotten luck too. No! She's not my type. No! "That kind of" connection there.

Day of Rest
I having another day of rest for my knee and it's healing very nicely. I miss activities like swimming, yoga ( I can do some poses), and bicycling (although weater is not conducive anyway) a little. It's good to rest with my feet propped up and watch recorded TV, do crosswords, computer scrabble, word hunt, and draw while listening to Oprah's classes.
I've lost weight. I can tell. I just eat a little at a time and my stomach is feeling flatter. It's about time!
I want to take it easy because I want to run the Run for Sight on Sunday. The way I am progressing nicely I should be fine by then. This evening I'll meet up with my running group and probably walk mostly, but will try a little running too.
Immediately putting ice on my swollen golf ball size wound was key Saturday morning. The bumps and I'm healing very nicely. Think I'll do a few yoga poses now. Maybe by tomorrow evening I can do a downward facing dog pose because the bruises on my hands will be better.
Cool! Hey, it's what I get for being clumsy and not alert. I have fallen twice before while running on sidewalk and it was because I wasn't concentrating on my footing on uneven sidewalk slabs connections. Saturday I fell because I wasn't lifting my feet high enough going across a bouncing medal expansion bridge. It was slick too. Maybe that's what started the whole downward process; my left foot slide on the downward side on the bridge. But the group of four women ahead of me didn't have any problems. I think the main reason was that I didn't lift my feet high enough to allow for the up bounce on the bridge and my toe caught the vertical open spaced medal slat as it bounce back up. A trick bridge! A silly bridge; but probably cheaper than another stone bridge. Don't know the reason why, maybe they thought variety would be more interesting instead of having all the bridges in the park look alike.
Anyway, I'll be ready to get out and about by this evening.

It's about me this time
I'm having a great time. Really! Although I am reminded of M so many times and I miss her. But I just can't bring myself to call her. I don't want to get her here and have the same thing happen all over again. I don't want to jerk her around. I miss her and I feel for her but right now I have to fly solo. Speaking of which, I certainly miss the good doctor. I miss her wonderful loving heart. Thank the universe for that precious moment we had together. Sometimes what takes only a moment can last many lifetimes. She nurtures me with her heart. I take that moment with me so many times. So many quiet times - she's with me. I feel her spirit. Hey, I have great friends and I am learning to live in the Eckhart Tolle's "The New Earth" moment. Have you ever noticed that if you sit and take deep breaths that you can't think about anything in particular while you do that?
I am sitting and I am healing my leg by tomorrow evening to I can run about four miles in the park. I wonder if I will have the nerve to run over that bridge again. The medal spring bridge that bounces when you run over it. I wonder? Maybe after I heal. I know I was not picking up my feet high enough to compensate for the bounce when I ran over it Saturday morning. The vertical steel slates caught the toe of my shoes and I slide a few feet it felt like on my left shoe. Well, it was fall enough that I wondered when and where I would stop; then the toe of my right shoe got caught on a vertical slat and I went down. Don't ask me why they built a bridge like that? It's open slatted you can see the water below and it is springy besides. Anyway, I have ran over that bridge probably fifty times but Saturday I think I was getting tired near the end of a ten mile run (without caffeine help - I'm so proud. Only two little miniature cinnamon rolls from Whole Foods) and I didn't pick up my feet high enough.
I got cut a bit and a huge golf ball size bump arrived by the time I ran the last half mile back to the center where we meet up. My friends were already back and one ran and got ice from the little cafe inside the building for me to hold on the bump. The bump went down fast. I am so grateful because now I know I'll be probably able to run tomorrow evening and do the Run for Sight run on Sunday with five or six of my running buddies. I'm so glad.
Yes, I've been resting, doing just a wee bit of yoga. I can't do downward facing dog because I have large bruises on the pads of each hand. I should be fine by Wednesday evening yoga; however. Can't stop my routine. I feel fortunate - trust me! It could have been worse. I thank the universe for this time of rest and reading and comtemplation.
I think I owe alot to the fact that I learned how to fall when I took Judo lessons way back when I
was very young. I tuck and roll onto my right shoulder. It's automatic and I never try to stop or catch or brace myself. I just go with it. Actually, this smooth bridge (what kind of surface is that - smooth?) allowing me to slide was really much better than a concrete sidewalk. My last two running falls were on concrete sidewalks with my toe caught on the elevated edge of the walk. See, all because I didn't pick up my feet high enough. And never look away when you are running but always be looking about ten or fifteen feet ahead on the surface.
I am trying to live in the moment to breath in the moment and not think about past or future or even distracted by the moment. I know that life is temporary and I want to make good use of my time here - in this lifetime. I am most grateful for my agility, my active capabilites, my wonderful good health, perfect sight, lack of fear, my safety, being free of accident and illnes. I am grateful for every limb and part of my body and my brain and mind and spirituality. I am grateful for my home, my car and all of my possessions and the fact that they are all working well and free of any mishap. I am so grateful for that! Thank you!
Life is grand and I am most grateful for my good health and wonderful friends. I am truly trying to find my inner spirit and to do that I must separate mind and spirit. Our thoughts are not our spirit but rather our ego. The other day I was really worried about the gift I was going to give a friend for her birthday and then I realized that it was my ego that was worrying - so I stopped worrying. I had already gotten the gift - so why worry about it. It's done. She was grateful for the gift. So, it's all done.
Tomorrow I ask the universe to make my day magical and manificent and in the moment of spirituality.

Can't stop my routine. I feel fortunate - trust me! It could have been worse. I thank the universe for this time of rest and reading and comtemplation.
I think I owe alot to the fact that I learned how to fall when I took Judo lessons way back when I
was very young. I tuck and roll onto my right shoulder. It's automatic and I never try to stop or catch or brace myself. I just go with it. Actually, this smooth bridge (what kind of surface is that - smooth?) allowing me to slide was really much better than a concrete sidewalk. My last two running falls were on concrete sidewalks with my toe caught on the elevated edge of the walk. See, all because I didn't pick up my feet high enough. And never look away when you are running but always be looking about ten or fifteen feet ahead on the surface.
I am trying to live in the moment to breath in the moment and not think about past or future or even distracted by the moment. I know that life is temporary and I want to make good use of my time here - in this lifetime. I am most grateful for my agility, my active capabilites, my wonderful good health, perfect sight, lack of fear, my safety, being free of accident and illnes. I am grateful for every limb and part of my body and my brain and mind and spirituality. I am grateful for my home, my car and all of my possessions and the fact that they are all working well and free of any mishap. I am so grateful for that! Thank you!
Life is grand and I am most grateful for my good health and wonderful friends. I am truly trying to find my inner spirit and to do that I must separate mind and spirit. Our thoughts are not our spirit but rather our ego. The other day I was really worried about the gift I was going to give a friend for her birthday and then I realized that it was my ego that was worrying - so I stopped worrying. I had already gotten the gift - so why worry about it. It's done. She was grateful for the gift. So, it's all done.
Tomorrow I ask the universe to make my day magical and manificent and in the moment of spirituality.
McCain can really twist the words...
McCain go home! During a speech McCain said that the Democrats want government to control health care and he wants families to control health care. What the hell is he talking about?
Families can't tell health insurance companies to set certain rates or put into law making it a crime to cheat insurers.
What Hillary I believe plans to do is set into law and make it unlawful for insurance companies to cheat insurers like they have been doing. People with insurance plans expect, with all due rights, the insurance company to cover illness and procedures to the end and not bail during the middle of treatment - unexpectedly.
In reality I saw it myself a doctor testifying in front of Congress saying how she denied coverage to patients when they needed it most just to save the insurance company a buck!
McCain is either clueless and I believe he is! I also believe this sounds like arrogant Carl Rove writing McCain's speeches. Oh yeah, McCain won the Republican nomination and immediately Carl Rove stepped up to the speech writing plate. McCain the new Republican puppet - bye bye Bush. I see too where McCain was just in Florida with that speech. Gee!
Oh yes, and the Republican governor in Florida Chris probably thinks he will be VP. Well I am very afraid we are going to have another 2004 crooked election. If they don't think they can win fairly Republicans lie and cheat. Oh please! 9 11 and 2004 were as plain to see manipulated as can be.
It's all for big bucks and promises and mostly about big bucks for a very few rich at the expense of the diminishing middle class.
