Quality & Original!
By Tonya Jone Miller | September 24, 2008
Well how ’bout them apples?! My site got reviewed on Jane’s Guide and was given both the Original and Quality ratings! Yay me! Lol. It’s definitely nice to get some positive feedback. Sometimes I struggle with balancing the different aspects of my life when I write and start second-guessing myself. But it’s cool to feel like someone “gets” me. And a nice little spank from the Universe…As in, stop worrying so much about how you’re perceived and simply say what you think and do what you feel is right. Like that quote…
“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.” ~Dr. Seuss
I’ve been reading this fantastic book, Radical Acceptance: Embracing Your Life With The Heart Of A Buddha by Tara Brach, and it is really opening my eyes to certain patterns I’ve let rule my life in the past. The book was a gift from a dear friend, and I am eternally grateful he was so thoughtful as to share it with me. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Do yourself a favor and grab a copy of it.
Oooh I’ve been meaning to share a couple of pics with you that I took of myself with my brand new Canon SD790 digital camera. We used rewards points from AmEx to purchase it, so we didn’t have to pay a penny out-of-pocket! I absolutely love it, and once I actually figure out how to use it properly (lmao) it will be fantastic for getting chef crush pictures in all the dimly-lit kitchens about town. Anyway, here are the pictures, and yes I took them myself and they’re poorly lit and terribly cropped and all that. Deal with it. Lol.
I’m off to run some errands…
