random ramblings...

Life travels faster than light sometimes. Can it really be mid-February? The sun is shining and the snow is melting, but I warned our students that Spring has not quite arrived. I expect at least one more cold spell before winter releases it's frosty grip.

This sunshine creates such energy. I wish I could bottle it up and sell it! Yesterday in a fit of warm-weather induced greatness, I cleaned my room top to bottom. It looks beautiful adorned with new curtains and free of books, clutter and dust-bunnies!

Heart health was highlighted at our church ladies' meeting this month. A family physician outlined risk factors and taught us how to recognize the signs of a heart attack. She chanted (to the rhythm of the "Pepto-bismol" commercial,) "Chest pain, arm pain, indigestion, trouble breathing, cool clammy skin." We all laughed as we recited and did the actions along with her, easily commiting this to memory. She also introduced us to this excellent website: http://www.thehearttruth.ca/. Enjoy!
