I learnt Spanish not from my Latino husband. He and I had met in Barbados, and we only communicated in English, and that had become a habit. Over the years we settled on Spanglish.
But I learnt most of my Spanish from my construction workers, most of whom were Nicaraguan immigrants. Wood=madera. Cement= cemento. Hammer= martillo. Nails= clavos. When hubby came home from work I could relax again, and slip back into English, which I was more comfortable with.

Ulli, what a wonderful program. Will find out if there is one in my city. Thank you.Quote:

I just came from a unsuccessful MRI. I failed completely. I had never had one done , have seen the mri machines from afar , but just forgot about it until I was inside it and lasted less than 2 minutes. Tried to calm myself, pray, think of a Sound of Music scenery , etc etc to no avail. I was shouting to the technician to get me out of there. It is for a shoulder that has been bothering me for a couple of months. Tomorrow I have to return and they will sedate me. So embarrassed. I am not Claustrophobic. Or never was until today. Was telling the doctor I might prefer to live with that pain that go inside that machine again. :o:thumbsdown:
Discovering a weakness is a tough lesson.
I discovered that my fear of heights has increased a lot in recent years.
Part of the aging process is to not only face death as a reality, but get rid of the delusion of being strong.
And so slowly but surely our identity can start identifying more with our soul, and drop that physical survival instinct.
This cannot happen overnight.

New Orleans threatened by hurricane. I feel for everyone in its path. I hope our combined focus can smash its strength to minimise damage. We’ve done it before.

This is a tropical storm that formed over land. Now it is stalled out in the gulf gaining strength, waiting to be steered back over land. We have been watching the situation, and do not believe it to be a natural phemomena.
Rolling Stones playing in Superdome in New Orleans on Sunday ! Wonder what will happen and it they would cancel. Lots of friends flying there.
To be clear we're talking about a land based upper level low pressure system that once over water began the slow progress of transforming into a tropical system, correct?Quote:

Not that it is literally the first evr named storm that developed over land.

I added the hurricane to the list here, there's a lot of "energy" in the air again, so to speak. You're all welcome to join our weekly sunday meditation, intentions sure are a powerful thing. After all, beliefs shape and create our everyday reality.
The Rolling Stones are rescheduled to play on Monday. All who were in town yesterday and did not have a planned, scheduled flight were advised to stay at their hotels and not leave town, as the airport was not going to accommodate campers waiting for a flight out.
I am about 60 miles north of New Orleans and we are on the east side of the hurricane. We're getting some pretty strong gusts and occasional rain. But, as far as I know, Hurricane Barry is just entering the coast of Louisiana around Morgan City, which is close to the Texas/Louisiana border.
At least it's cool instead of blazingly, mind numbingly hot and humid.

I just heard on the news that all flights at Louis Armstrong Airport are cancelled.
I didn't know it was the Louis Armstrong Airport
But of course
What else could it be?

It used to be New Orleans International Airport, but they changed it.
Everyone who is from here was raised on red beans and rice and can make it with their eyes closed. Served with hot french bread and butter.

Sorry about the dark humor, but I needed some comic relief.

Ulli, ? How did you get a picture of me and my family on the Florida panhandle this year?
Speaking of water, the place most immediately in trouble is Plaquemines Parish, where the force of the water overtopping the levee is like nothing I've ever seen. Except the dam of the levee is made of dirt and not concrete and may give way. There are a lot of beautiful people and fishing down that way. Please send your best thoughts.
Two horses saved from a pasture by the overtopped levee. One pooped on the way out.
Nostalgic thoughts from the days when we all used to hang out. ONE LOVE!!!
