I love blowing bubbles with my gum. I was rather old when I found out how to [I must have been at least 8 at the time], but I'm thankful i can now, because I love to do it.
Ian can't.
So while I was blowing my bubbles on the way to Catherine's house, I was thinking about this, and decided to take a picture and help everyone who can't blow bubbles learn!
Step one:
Find a good peice of bubble gum. Not chewing gum, as they do not blow such fine bubbles as depicted.
Step two:
Chew. Kind of obvious, but at the same time, you need to chew it to the point of rubberyness, and not to the point of hard, old gum.
Step three:
Flatten the gum on the roof of your mouth, so that it makes a nice even coating on the top. Make sure it's even, or your bubble won't turn out very well.
Step four:
Move the peice of flattened gum to your lips. This might take a while, because sometimes it doesn't always want to work correctly.
Step five:
Blow. It might pop right when you start to blow into it, it may get huge, and when it does finally pop, all over your lips, chin, and even sunglasses [as has happened to me before]!
There you go! A step by step instruction on how to blow bubbles with your gum! :]

A small collection of CoDA 'sobriety' tokens. CoDA is Codependents Anonymous, a group that functions very similarly to AA, except for people who suffer from Codependency, rather than Alcoholism. Tokens would be awarded based on a period of time in which the person has remained "sober". I'm not exactly sure what the sobriety equivalent is for Codependency. Anyway, should I ever find myself afflicted, I'm set on tokens for the first year at least.
I always believed that those who never expected much were somehow less disappointed.
Avoidance of disappointment, however, does not contribute to the satisfaction quotient - they are different ball games entirely.

(8 octobre 2009) Nora BERRA, Secrétaire d'Etat chargée des Aînés, a visité
un des centres multidisciplinaire d’hébergement,
« SELFHELP », utilisant des technologies innovantes et une large variété de
prestations de services permettant aux résidents de vivre de façon autonome.
Designed by Chicago architect Howard Van Doren Shaw in 1917, this neighborhood was created industrialist Clayton Mark. It was a planned community, middle class, with the goal of providing affordable housing, retail and a school. Unfortunately, industry exploded in the area. Refineries, steel, chemical plants. The community is surrounded on all sides. Square blocks have been demolished, the retail cornerstone is abandoned and crumbling (that's where I shot these photos.) Most of the houses are falling apart. Those families that remain, mostly Hispanic, are doing their best to maintain what they have. Difficult, since much is abandoned.
Many are townhouses - one side of the house is abandoned, rotting, roof caved in, while on the other side of the common wall, is a nicely maintained home. Sad, really.

♪ U2 ~ Pride (In The Name Of Love) ♫
She went first and ran into a few problems, (see her feet!), but talked me into doing it by coaching me with the right techniques. I didn't feel a thing...it was awesome!!!
In The Name Of Love ~U2 Lyrics
One man come in the name of love
One man come and go.
One man come he to justify
One man to overthrow.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love.
One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed up on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love.
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
Fresh from the era of the Great Depression and the last year of World War II, this vintage blockbuster is one of the original 'live-your-best-life-now' types of books. It was written by Margery Wilson, a Hollywood silent film star-cum-director-cum-femininist-cum-etiquette expert who was widely admirely as one of the most gracious and well-poised women of her time.
Wilson offers wonderful advice in this book that's as spot-on today as it was back in the 30s, 40s and 50s when she had legions of female fans who bought her books, purchased her etiquette lesson guides, enrolled in her clases, and flocked to her speaking engagements.
After learning more about this plucky, confident and feminine feminist, I can easily understand why she had such a following and is still quoted and referred to today in various blogs by lovers of vintage living and popular, mainstream self-help authors alike.
Margery Wilson viewed her books as guides to what she called "joyous living". This book, her sixth, "How to Live Beyond Your Means," is absolutely priceless, and I'm not at all surprised that it's so scarce. I don't really want to give it up either! ...Hint, Hint... Get it before I change my mind!
