Whirling Betty: November 2012
http://whirlingbetty.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Sunday, November 04, 2012. My future kitchen table project. When I have time, I intend to paint my kitchen table so that it looks something like this. This paint job looks awfully professional. Could it be spray paint? I'm not sure when this will happen, but when it does, I will post photos. Meanwhile, don't forget that your vote counts. If you haven't voted already, please do so on Tuesday. May the candidate who is best for our country win.

Whirling Betty: Mother's Day
http://whirlingbetty.blogspot.com/2013/05/mothers-day.html
I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Saturday, May 11, 2013. This is NOT what really happens on Mother's Day. Notice that the title of this post is not HAPPY Mother's Day. It's just "Mother's Day". Mother's Day is not. Very few people read my blog, but if you are reading this post, I have a request. Do you know anyone who is a single mother? And I wish you a happy day tomorrow, but not because it's Mother's Day. Posted by B.S. Saturday, May 11, 2013. Thats a great request, Betty. Youre r...

Whirling Betty: January 2014
http://whirlingbetty.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Monday, January 06, 2014. Enough, already, and happy new year. 8220;Enough is abundance to the wise.". Indeed. This is a valuable outlook, especially for anyone living on planet Earth in 2014, where the majority of people definitely do not have enough. I have decided that I want my word of the year to be "peace". Now, to figure out how to live by that one-word rule. Posted by B.S. Monday, January 06, 2014. Links to this post.

Whirling Betty: September 2012
http://whirlingbetty.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Thursday, September 13, 2012. This is the key. My reading this summer has brought me to the understanding that joy, or the happiness referred to above by Deepak Chopra, is a state of being. And as Deepak says, it requires no reason. That's good news. Now, if I can just figure out how to access that state after decades of the habitual pain vs. pleasure flip flop. Posted by B.S. Thursday, September 13, 2012. Links to this post.

Whirling Betty: August 2013
http://whirlingbetty.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Tuesday, August 20, 2013. I have tried to find my grandmother's apartment from my early childhood on previous visits, but couldn't quite be sure which building it was, since everything is even more run down now than it was then. But a couple of months ago I suddenly remembered her address,and after checking with google maps, I knew it was correct. I was so taken by the little tree bearing beautiful berries at the back of the garden that I begged Gram ...

Whirling Betty: April 2013
http://whirlingbetty.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Friday, April 26, 2013. Quote of the day. 8220; The true secret of happiness lies in the taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life.”. This is a quote I received via email this morning. I'm not sure what to make of it, exactly. I do recognize that apathy is not. Life-enhancing; nor is numbness. Is this related to the Buddhist concept of awareness (mindfulness) and staying in the moment? Posted by B.S. Friday, April 26, 2013. Now, anyon...

I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Friday, August 31, 2012. I've always loved pandas. I don't know what Pinterest is and frankly, I don't have time for any new pursuits, so I'm not interested in Pinterest. But Pinterest is the source of this really cool photo. And apparently Pinterest is allowing me to use this cute koala as well:. Thank you, Pinterest. Posted by B.S. Friday, August 31, 2012. Links to this post. Sunday, August 19, 2012. And on top of that, Be Kind. Thank you, Lynilu.

Whirling Betty: May 2013
http://whirlingbetty.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
I whirl to spin some sense from the chaos of my life. Tuesday, May 14, 2013. The years are short. Please watch this one minute video, especially. If you are a parent of a child. I sort of wish I had seen this when The Child was little, but I sort of knew that the years were short. sort of. So I signed up, and generally enjoyed meeting with the two counselors who were assigned to me and The Child. And I did what I always did - I picked him up. I went along with her diatribe, nodding my head and promising ...
