Hello?

-
No, not the new Adele song, I have yet to hear that believe it or not.
But at least I am not out of the loop enough to know there is a new Hello song that isn't Lionel Ritchie....

Yes, it would appear I have been MIA for quite a while.
And in some ways I have been. It has been almost an entire year since I have posted a blog.
I have some drafts, but also almost an entire year ago.

But I have been around. Just distracted by real life (which honestly has been wonderful).
I gave up my smart phone, and do scroll around Facebook and Pinterest, but writing has taken a back seat to actual life and work.

So, now I wonder if there is anyone out there that still would like Raige's thoughts of life, motivation, and creation? Yes, the Floyd song does fit here.
Is there anybody in there? 
Just nod if you can hear me.
(But since it is not Monday, no music today.)

I will still try to write, because as I realized something: I often wrote thinking I was helping others, but as I was reading over all the posts I did, it occurred to me that I was writing for me. The posts I wrote to help others were never near as good, to me. So at the end of the day, I will write for me, when I can.

But if you are out there, and would like to see more, do say so!

I will leave you with the a thought for the day:

    I kind of came to the same conclusion about my poor neglected blog. I love sharing and adore getting comments but it really is a place for me and my thoughts and that is enough. Keep writing, I see it on Feedly.

    WRITE ON!!!
    It shouldn't amaze me to see others echo my same sentiments on life, blogs, etc. But it is heartwarming to know I'm not alone in my thinking, and that others are going through some of the same things. The Dodinsky quote is a great reminder for me. Thanks for sharing and keep on creating!

Walking on Wednesday - My Money Tree is Dead! What does that MEAN??

It's not the kind of money tree you are thinking.  I wish it was. But it is not. It is technically a Pachira . The name supposedly comes from a story of it's origin.  A poor man prayed for money, and then found this "odd" plant. He took it home as an omen, and made money from selling plants grown from it's seeds. I bought it at a grocery store when we first moved back to the states, in 2004 . We had just moved in to our own house, after being displaced from Hurricane Ivan , and our new place needed some green. This was the biggest plant, for the least amount of money , at the grocery store. It said it was ' foolproof ' , and that is the right plant for me ! I thought the name was an omen too, hoping it would bring good fortune, meaning a little money .  It decorated our living room in New York for almost 6 years ! During that time, about 2 years after I bought it, I tried to root it from clippings just for fun. It worked , and I grew another money

Music Monday! Just Dance

A surprise suggestion, this song was. I asked a friend-who-is-family for some ideas, as I wanted to do a Music Monday this week, but was having trouble picking a song. Just didn't have any that felt right at the time. So this friend, who by the way is someone we (hubby first actually) 'met' online. Communicated for quite a while before actually meeting in person. But you just know when you click with someone and we are going on over 8 years of friendship, I believe, though it feels like we have known each other forever. She has been a wonderful addition to our extremely small circle of friends. She is 'auntie' to my kids, she is who I vent to almost on a daily basis via messages, she is always willing to listen unconditionally. And that, my dear readers, is hard to find these days. She became family. Source So after complaining I was not inspired by any songs, she said she would see what songs came on over dinner with her Mama, and give me some ideas. Her Ma

Raige Creations turns 1 year old next week. To celebrate, Raige is doing her FIRST GIVEAWAY! I can't believe a year has passed, and how far Raige has come. Certainly, the handmade community and its supporters had something to do with Raige not giving up, and Raige's customers are just the best! So to honor all you wonderful people, Raige is happy to give. What to give, you ask? 3 New Toekini's  TOEKINIS OF COURSE Toekinis have, by far, generated the most buzz at Raige Creations. It seems fitting to celebrate with one of them.  Every time I have Toekini's on my brain, I think "Life is good today" and this song from Music Monday  gets stuck in my head.with these lyrics: "I've got my toes in the water, ass in the sand,  not a worry in the world ,  a cold beer in my hand. Life is good today, life is good today." But life is good today, even if it is not yet summer here, and to celebrate - the giveaway will be your CHOICE of TOEKINI.  Any
