Happy New Year!

I have been thinking about the New Year and what I want to do. What are my goals. I know we all set goals last night or today and then tell everyone this year will be different. I indeed want to break that pattern and hope that I can. Actually I know that I can. So what am I setting as my New Years goals? Just to be a nicer person, happier person. Someone who will take the time to feel the softness of the grass beneath my feet, to actually smell the sweetness of the spring air, feel the summers suns warmth on my cheeks, hear the crunch of the Autumn leaves as I walk a wooded path, to see the delicate snowflake designs as they sit upon my dogs brow and nose...OK and to loose ten pounds would be nice to. Happy New Year everyone!

Politics and Fido

...a Latin name meaning "I am faithful." As such it is a terrific name for the average protective and loyal family dog. However, it gets its popularity from a celebrity tie-in. Apparently, Abraham Lincoln, a largely self-educated but very erudite man, named his dog Fido. Americans followed suit in droves, putting the dog name Fido firmly in the top 20 names. Lincoln’s choice of Fido for his dog’s name was perfectly logical. Fido is the Latin for faithful, which when dealing with any pet dog is entirely appropriate
