On a more positive note, I planted some seeds so I can grow MINATURE CHRISTMAS TREES!!! How fun is that?

Today's high tempurature was 81 degrees. Tonight's low is forcasted to be 32. Oh, boy that was a quick fall!

Can't you hear them bells ringin', ringin'. Joy, don'tcha hear them singin'? When it's snowin', I'll be goin' Back to my country home.

For the last week or so I was confused as for plans for Christmas decorations for the house. I finaaly decided on a simple advent wreath for the front door. I chose a pre-lit wreath and colored bows instead of using candles as so not to burn the house down. Since purple and a pink (the traditional colors used) bows were not available, I felt fortunate to find some royal blue (the acceptable modern substitute) bows. So, the first blue bow will be installed and the wreath will be lit upon the evening of November 27 with another blue bow being put on in the successive weeks approaching Christmas with a big silver bow going smack in the middle on Christmas eve. I really secretly want to get some baby blue "It's a boy!" ribbon to put on it to. ha!

It was the time of the preacher in the year of 01. Now the preachin' is over and the lesson's begun.

I just finished a book titled The Tao of Willie, as in the Tao Te Ching of Willie Nelson. It is part wisdom, part music biography and completely wonderful. Here's why:

Willie does yoga on the biodiesel tour bus as it speeds down the road. He descibes the feeling as a rush.

Willie has a very bad golf game, he simply plays because he loves the sport.

Willie Nelson is a happy man and enjoys the art of telling very bad jokes.

Willie is an avocate for peace - inner, global, racial, environmental or otherwise.

When Jimmy Carter received his Nobel prize, Willie was in attendance at the ceremony. I doubt the yoga bus with the french fry aroma made it to Oslo, but with Willie, one really never knows.

Even though Willie's house is in Texas, he considers all the earth, his home and all it's inhabitants, his friends.

Willie Nelson has out of body experiences while performing on stage? Okay.

Willie Nelson followed his way as a troubadour. He will be remembered as a legendary icon because of that. The naming of this blog was basically inspired by architypes created by Willie Nelson. The outlaw, the preacher, the red-headed stranger, etc. Sadly, I am just a Willie-wannabe!
