“An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea.” ~Buddha

It's time to start planning vacation for Sawyer & I. We're going to Niagara Falls, and Toronto this summer. I NEED to get my passport paperwork started, and I NEED to get information on both locations. I never know where to start, so maybe one day Sawyer & I should go into a AAA location to ask for help. His parents did that for their trip this summer, and said it was really helpful.

So far my list of "To Do's" for this trip include:
* get Passport
* pick dates for trip (I'm hoping for sometime near my birthday)
* decide how long to spend in each place
* find things to do in each place (Maid of the Mist, and Hockey Hall of Fame required)
* find & book hotels

So far I have:
* Printed paperwork for my Passport
* Ordered a guide book for Niagara Falls

I just decided yesterday that I'm going to find a new Pulmonolgist. My current one seemed put off by me after my Sleep Study came back with no trouble. He doesn't ever want follow ups or check ups with my asthma, and I'm starting to suspect that I may have COPD. I want to make sure that I'm doing all that I can for all of my "illnesses".

I don't know if there is a setting that I can change so you can sign up via email, but I'll look. I'd post a note on FB but there are a few people on there that I don't want to find my blog - or I don't want to _point_ them here. I have nothing to hide, but I'm not going to lay it all out there - ya know?

Quotes of the moment:

"Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be." ~Shel Silverstein

"We're all given a little spark of madness. We mustn't lose it." ~Robin Williams

“I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!” ~Dr. Seuss

"We ain't what we should be, we ain't what we gonna be, but at least we ain't what we was." ~Miss Minnie - Designing Women

"Atheism is more than just the knowledge that gods do not exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is an attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively, fearlessly, always trying to understand all things as a part of nature." ~Carl Sagan

"Women are not dying because of diseases we cannot treat. They are dying because societies have yet to make the decision that their lives are worth saving." ~Prof. Mahmoud Fathalla, MD, PhD

"I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints; the sinners are much more fun." ~Billy Joel

"Being a geek is all about being honest about what you enjoy and not being afraid to demonstrate that affection. It means never having to play it cool about how much you like something. It's basically a license to proudly emote on a somewhat childish level rather than behave like a supposed adult. Being a geek is extremely liberating." ~Simon Pegg

"The greatest crimes in the world are not committed by people breaking the rules but by people following the rules. It's people who follow orders that drop bombs and massacre villages." ~Banksy

"Some believe it is only great power that can hold evil in check. But that is not what I have found. I have found it is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love." ~Gandalf

"When you can't run anymore, you crawl, and when you can't do that anymore you find someone to carry you." ~Firefly

"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones." ~Marcus Aurelis

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." ~Oscar Wilde

"Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand?" ~John Coffey - The Green Mile

"I want you to listen to me very carefully, Harry. You're not a bad person. You're a very good person, who bad things have happened to. Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are." ~Sirius Black - Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix

"Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt." ~John Muir
