Many of you knew that my family don’t do gift exchange during Christmas. We all got too many things and we are too lazy to shop. But here is my gift to humanity. After a gap of 20 years, I started donating blood again -- my English friend Mike Lee (www.flickr.com/photos/mjjtlee/ ) has been donating blood for years and he is an inspiration to me!
(I actually hate the needle and seeing blood!! So it’s a big thing for me to do it!!)

Background: Got a little lazy so I just downloaded the background from Google image and then added the clock and flying hearts :).
A reminder for folks living in the US that it will be daylight saving time this weekend, so don't forget to spring your clock forward by 1 hour. That means we will all lose an hour of sleep....which I really hate :(
Have a great Friday and weekend ahead dear friends!

At the Outdoor Lab school near Mount Evans, Colorado
Recent budget cuts have lead to the suspension of the Outdoor Laboratory Schools in Jefferson County, Colorado. The program has been around for more than 50 years. I have had the privilege of both attending when I was a sixth grader and also teaching classes at the school while my little brother attended. My dad even went to the school when he was a kid. It is a Jefferson Country tradition that kids have been able to experience for years. Outdoor Lab is an incredibly important program, especially for the kids who attend who have not spent much time up in this beautiful place that we live in. I have both witnessed and experienced the good that this program can do. However, in order to keep the school up and running, they need private funding, and lots of it.
Please take the time to go to the website listed above, watch the news story on the program, and donate some money. Any amount helps to keep the school going!
Commercial solar farm in upper Willamette Valley, Oregon. Solar arrays on Oregon prime farmland were restricted on 2019: Statewide rules currently prohibit the construction of solar power farms on farmland soil that is determined to be Class 1, Class 2, prime, or unique -- unless a solar company and landowner can establish a dual use for the land, such as beekeeping in additional to the solar farm.May 13, 2019

Sauna with S.

Anteckningar:
Sauna plans with Seraphine were altered when the Letsworth boy threw himself in the lake. Luckily I was already swimming. Arthur refused medical attention after I dragged him out of the freezing water, but ended up defrosting himself in the sauna as he sat with me, Sera and Jamie.

Was kinda saving this song for a Tusaud mannequin, but it doesn't look like I'm gonna get that chance any time soon... should watch it and count the stars you recognise.

Whiteford Point Lighthouse is located off the coast Whiteford Sands, on the Gower Peninsula, South Wales. It is an unusual cast-iron lighthouse built in 1865. It is the only wave-swept cast-iron tower of this size in Britain and believed Europe. The tower is 44 feet (13 m) high and stands just above low-water level.
And I haven't even left my bed! I do, however, need help from some friends, no, ALL my friends. Actually, make that everybody. Just help me out and you will be my friend.
Frankfurt Zeil. The business concept of buying and selling mobile phones and notebooks makes sense and also contributes to environmental protection. CO2 savings is an advertising phrase without evidence. But the store is good. I discovered and bought a Zen notebook from Asus there.
