What do they say about Assumptions?

Haven't all of us been told at one time or another to not assume any thing. Yet, again and again we do it.

Like assuming five cloudy days with snow on the ground wouldn't really bother us. After all, if you don't have to get out in it, why should you care.
Sounded good, in reality, I'm not doing so good with the white stuff. But lucky, we have sun today which has brighten my mood.

Or assuming that because you wrote a book, some one out there is going to want to publish it. This I think is the biggest for new writers. We are so proud of our accomplishment that we don't understand the real difference between writing a good book and writing a book that will sell (those two things aren't necessarily the same thing.)

But don't give up, the great thing about assumptions is they can also be wrong. Like not thinking a book would sell because it had been turned
down by one publishing house. Then, you get an email that another publisher wants to buy it. I'm thrilled to say "Baby Decision" my second book after
"Pregnancy Plan" has sold to Amira Press.

Merry Christmas. I wish all of you a great week.

All the best to you and yours,

Weekend Trend.

Hi, everyone.

For the last two weekends, the weather has decided to act up. Saturday, we got ice and snow. Not the best weather to be driving in, so we stayed in for the most part.

I'm missing California at the moment, the sunny, warm days. Now, I hear this coming weekend we are suppose to get rain and snow again. Welcome to Nebraska.

But wait, we have a new coach for our Huskers, so things will be getting brighter.

Also, the good thing about the weather being bad is I get more things done around the house, like all those boring chores that we all have to do. The college football games help to divert my attention when the iron called, so I was saved from that task.

Have a Christmas Party this weekend so rain or snow I will be getting out.

Hope you have a wonderful week.

Now I have to get to work.

After enjoying a nice meal on Thanksgiving, my husband and I tackled the disaster area which is suppose to be my new office. With Mike's help,I managed to get my book shelf up and my books out of the boxes.

Now, I have a place where I can write without interruption. For the last several days I have been just walking by and smiling, but today I get to put it to the test. Who knows with all that space I might not be able to get anything done.

Hope you have a wonderful week.

Happy Thanksgiving

Hi everyone,

I know no one is really reading this because I haven't posted in such a long time. So if you happen by. Have a great Thanksgiving. I am going to try to do better in the future.

I know you've heard it before, but if I keep saying it. Maybe it will happen.

Love to all,

Tina

Life Gets in the Way

Hi everyone,

Over the last couple of months, I have been so busy with getting my website up and playing on my space. I haven't been blogging.

Hope to do better in the future.

Power Flowing Through the Universe

Tap into the energy flowing around you. The other day I was watching the Kentucky derby. I could feel the energy from the jockey that won the race. He was excited, smiling and alive with energy. People stopped him giving him hugs, shaking his hand, hitting him on the back. The whole world watched his dream come true. We shared his joy, his excitement, his victory. I can’t tell you how this touched my heart. I couldn’t help but shed a few tears at the rapture on this man’s face.

"Tina, are you crazy?"

"Yes, I have been told that before."

But can’t you see how one man’s joy can elevate all of us. This power can be use to help you reach your dream. If you’re excited about something, passionate to make it happen, the people around you feel it. Some might resent it, but most want to be a part of it. The emotional charge a person gets from this type of dream realizing victory is contagious. It lifts us all to a better place.

By tapping into the incredible energy of happy events, we can gather the energy we need to realize our own dreams.

Homework: look for happy people, exciting events and joyous things in your life every day.

"Tina, you have rose colored glasses. These things don’t happen every day."

"Wrong, my dog gets excited every time I play with her. My husband tells me he loves me every day. (but then he is a saint). I see the miracle of my children growing up around me. Every little thing counts."

Send Out Love

This is a test, a simple little test that doesn’t cost you a dime, or maybe with rising inflation a dollar.

The thoughts we have every moment of the day has a vibration. Others can pick up these vibrations and know how we’re feeling, our moods, that something is not right, or that things are going great in our world.

So why not use that magnetic power to add to the level of love flowing through the world.

It’s simple.

Next time you see some one, friend, stranger, co-worker send some love and good will toward them. A quick thought of:

"I hope John has a great day. He’s a nice guy and always makes me smile."

"That lady look sad, I wish something wonderful would happens to her to bright her day."

"Oh, what a cute couple, may they always be so happy together."

You’ll find when your send out love to other is this silent way, some of it will bounce back your way.

Homework: Send out thoughts of love and good will to ten people today. You might be surprise to get a few smiles of thanks from them.
