...doesn't update this thing all that often. =B



I'm doing 15 things
  

How I did it
How to buy this year's Christmas gifts.
It took me
1 month
It made me
...happy!

How I did it: I bought everything online! A few gifts for my mother I won at auctions, another one at Macy's and I also bought a couple of books on Amazon for other people. Read how I did it…

volunteer at the Humane Society of Greater Miami
I applied, but... 10 months ago

...For a terribly unfair, senseless reason I do not want to mention here, I was not accepted. They said they regretted it, and I believe they meant it.

However this is a situation that, God willing, will fix itself someday soon, so at the next opportunity I shall volunteer there again.

In the meantime, I will consider volunteering for some other cause.

COUNT MY BLESSINGS (read all 2 entries…)
This sure made me feel a lot better! 11 months ago

There are certainly more things I can add to this list, but for now I’m leaving it as it is. It sure is nice to be able to come back and look at it when I’m feeling a little blue. I definitely recommend doing this. =)

COUNT MY BLESSINGS (read all 2 entries…)
Counting My Blessings 11 months ago

To cheer myself up a little, I decided to make a list of all the things and people in my life that I am grateful to have. I will include everything, from the material and insignificant to the most important and meaningful, in no particular order.

Well, here it goes:

1. My mother.
2. My cats, Stimpy and Shampoo.
3. Living in the USA, the country of my dreams.
4. My job, the best I ever had.
5. My boss, the coolest I ever had.
6. My big beautiful library of books, comics and graphic novels.
7. The roof over my head.
8. Our TV.
9. My health.
10. My friend Chris.
11. All my other friends.
12. My dad.
13. The fact that my dad has lived so long despite his heavy smoking.
14. Being able to draw.
15. Having learned to ink after so many years of toil.
16. Being able to speak English and Spanish fluently.
17. Chocolate.
18. Libraries.
19. My unwavering optimism.
20. My luck.
21. My bicycle.
22. God.
23. My iPod.
24. All the characters and stories I’ve created.
25. My growing collection of animal figurines.
26. The drawing I got from Andy Runton, author of Owly.
27. My blogs.
28. Having figured out what makes me tick when it comes to relationships and men.
29. Christmas.
30. Having a little corner studio with all the tools I need to draw and write.

That’s all for now, but I am bound to think of more.
