Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

3 more days to go, and I need a little encouragement today.I love Penny Marshall. If you only watch this starting at 3:30, it’s worth it.  🙂

Yesterday my husband took me out for breakfast, and this is what we ended up next to in the parking lot. I could hardly keep myself together while I was taking the picture. I don’t know why, but this was so completely unexpected that I am still laughing about it. What outrageous and unexpected thing…

A couple of days ago I learned that people on WordPress can’t leave comments on my blogs easily. Yesterday I figured out how to fix that, so I thought I would share it with everyone who has a Blogger blog. (I just like saying Blogger blog.) Go into your blog and click Settings on the…

I have been so tired with my job(s) lately, and very overwhelmed with the number of things going on in my life. So yesterday I took an afternoon nap. And it was SO good. The laundry still got done (mostly, I’ll throw in the socks in a minute), and the dishes all got done. The…

Today we had to make a huge order of sub sandwiches at work. They were at least a foot long, and each one had to be cut into 6 pieces. At first the manager wanted to wrap them (in plastic wrap) like we usually do, but I pointed out that there was no way I…

Now that we are on Day 11 of the Ultimate Blog Challenge, I finally feel ready to get started on this blog again. I have been keeping up at my other site Amethyt Tarot and I haven’t felt rushed or behind at all, so I guess it is time to bring this blog into the…

There’s something so wonderful about Spring – the promise of renewal, growth, and just a freshness in the air. Everywhere people come out of their long winter slumber and start to live again. New projects are started and the smell of fresh-cut lawns permeates. Spring also means Spring Cleaning. For many people this is a…

I became ill yesterday, most likely from something I ate. So I am taking a rest day. I tend to take a lot of showers and baths when I don’t feel well. Something about the water (and the heat) is very comforting to me. I especially like being in the shower because I can envision white…
