Today’s suggested topic…
For today, take a moment to reflect on how the world view of AIDS has changed since you first learned about it and think of something that you could maybe do during December that would help bring attention to the cause.
I was really young when I first heard of AIDS and at the time it was a hush, hush "adults only" conversation. What I gleaned from eavesdropping was that AIDS killed anyone who got it. Plain and simple. It was a disease from another country…something I would never have to worry about. Well…times changes of course and information became more widely avilable (and more accurate) and as I got older I realized that this was something that everyone should be worrying about and taking action to prevent.
For me, it’s such a big thing that I’m not sure how I can bring attention to this cause this month. My way to bring attention to this cause, is for me to learn a little more about it this month. I will visit the AIDS Calgary web-site and learn about the illness and the prevention of it – this way bringing personal attention to the cause.

Ryn: an immersion blender is like a stick with blades at the end that you immerse into a bowl/cup to blend the contents. It’s much easier cleanup than a blender or food processor.

ryn: maybe I’ll just use up my 300 minutes & then stop going… or as you say, I should research it to decide for myself what I think. I’ve been ignoring the “scare tactics” why aren’t you writing anymore? or am I not on your friends list or something?

“Introduction to Beading” kit from Costco 😉 Starts out super easy I think this is an art/craft I can get into (it varies from easy/following a pattern – to complex/creative depending on where you go with it) not sure I’d ever use wires or tons of tools…

Wow, you haven’t written an entry in forever! I know you had your baby though cause I saw it on facebook. 🙂 Congrats, mama. ryn: I’ve been trying to write it down but the problem is- I can’t find words to describe it at all. It’s strange.
