Earthly Luster: March 2012
http://www.earthlyluster.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Sunday in the City. 26 March, 2012. Following today's weather forecast, we missed out on a potential trip to the Muir Woods. Instead we strolled around the Haight and ate brunch at la Boulange. We admired the ocean view from Fisherman's Wharf and watched a red sun set over Alcatraz Island. With all what we have seen and experienced lately, it's a little incomprehensible to me that one week from now we will be on our way back home. That old reality seems so distant. Museum of Modern Art. 25 March, 2012.

Attitude Matters: March 2011
http://briselle.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Tuesday, March 29, 2011. One of my hobbies is making ‘tags’ or graphics in Paint Shop Pro. I usually base my projects on a particular idea – perhaps I want to illustrate a Blog, or maybe I just want to post a comment on a social networking site; one of those which says ‘Happy Birthday’, or ‘Have a Great Weekend’. And, of course, there just had to be a lesson in that. Perhaps I should just learn to approach things with a more open mind?

Attitude Matters: August 2011
http://briselle.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Wednesday, August 31, 2011. We have the day off today. There just wasn’t any work available and so we thought we would get some chores out of the way and otherwise relax. Little did we know our day would be turned into a Three-Ringed Circus. Usually when the phone rings I answer. Right now I don’t bother because it will definitely be for Pete. He is really the ‘man-of-the-moment’. Initially he registered with the Bowel Cancer Society becaus...

Attitude Matters: Riding on the Rims
http://briselle.blogspot.com/2012/10/riding-on-rims.html
It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Sunday, October 14, 2012. Riding on the Rims. They were probably around 10 years of age - a group of boys in scruffy clothes, who had gone into one of those Discount Stores at a local shopping center, leaving an assortment of push-bikes, skate boards and scooters on the footpath outside. What didn’t, and absolutely couldn’t, go unnoticed was the awful racket they were making as they fled. The noise was obviously coming from ...I saw it in m...

Attitude Matters: September 2012
http://briselle.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Sunday, September 30, 2012. No one wants to be ordinary. I’m sure, at some time in our lives, we’ve all harboured the belief that we were meant for something a little grander than the lot we’ve ended up with. We bemoan the fact that, when we look back over our lives, there seems to be a serious lack of accomplishments to speak of. It’s all so mundane. So everyday! But, as long as everyone does the job required of them, the product will emer...

Attitude Matters: January 2012

It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Sunday, January 8, 2012. Today we went for a drive to our favourite Sunday-morning-breakfast Café. On the way home Pete wanted to call into a Plant Nursery he had seen advertised online, so he asked me to program the address into our GPS. 8216;You need to take the third right,’ I would say, and Pete would frown at me and ask. 8216;Are you sure? 8217; So I’d check again and, sure enough, I had the stupid map upside down. LOL. We would start ...

Attitude Matters: October 2012

It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Wednesday, October 31, 2012. 8216;What a wonderful day it’s going to be,’. I had just breezed in with my trusty duster and cleaning cloths. He greeted me with these words from his spot at the computer in the reception area. 8217; I said. ‘So you’ve got something special happening today? But he shook his head. Do you know, the very first thought that popped into my mind was to say something along the lines of. Now of course they were right&#...

Attitude Matters: Riding on the Rims Part 2
http://briselle.blogspot.com/2012/10/riding-on-rims-part-2.html
It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Saturday, October 20, 2012. Riding on the Rims Part 2. Last night (Friday) Pete said ‘How about we go over to the markets at Lawnton in the morning? We can leave right after breakfast,’. I said yes, that would be fun. But in my mind I was thinking of the basket of washing in the bathroom. And the pile of dirty mops and cleaning rags from our jobs during the week .Not to mention the mess on the lounge room floor. These days, with our contrac...

Attitude Matters: April 2011
http://briselle.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
It's only life. We all get through it". Dean Koontz - Odd Hours. Saturday, April 30, 2011. 169;PinUp Toons CDO-2389. I entitled my Blog – ‘Attitude Matters’, and, every now and then, something happens to make me realize just how true this is. In fact, we are in the middle of one of those ‘now and thens’ right now. And that is actually the only difference between us and a lot of the people out there living on the streets – our attitude. We have determined to be survivors. But why not us? Life will go on &...
