Everything About New York

by smarts

Question:

Which of these is a free NYC transportation?

1. water taxi

2. Staten Island ferry

3. Times Square shuttle

4. Roosevelt Island cable car

Answer

2. Staten Island Ferry

The Staten Island Ferry carries 60,000 people per weekday between St. George on Staten Island and Whitehall Street in lower Manhattan, and it won't cost you a dime, since the .50 cent fare was eliminated in 1997. It costs $2.00 to ride the Times Square shuttle, just like it does the subway, and two bucks will also get you the great view from the Roosevelt Island tramway (board at 59th Street and Second Avenue.) One way on a water taxi can lighten your wallet by 3-7 bucks.

Isn't it nice to know that there are still free things in the world when it seems like everything has a price.

So Whats on Staten Island that they will be happy to take you there for free?

Day 4 core beliefs

Soul Song, acrylic, 36" x 34 by Jean Hart , sold

Soul Coaching by Denise Linn

For Day 3 we cleaned the garage.....I'm no longing storing broken stuff, things that are not used or that are not mine.

Day 4

Air

Where are you now in your life?

Affirmation for the day

"I love and accept who I am and who I am is enough."

Level 3

Observing YOUR core beliefs

"A core belief is a notion that you have held so long and repeated so often that it has become entrenched into your subconscious mind."

I have been studying core beliefs with a Life Coach I'm working with and to start,

I have to say this is going to take much longer than a day!!

From awhile back I have always said that everything is in the words you speak.

You must learn to change the words you say to yourself and the words you use out loud.

If you insist on being negative well expect the negative to happen.

Start with something like this,

I am exactly where I need to be.

All of my needs, wants and desires are being met.

I always have choices.

Think you your own as negative thoughts come into your mind, turn then around.

For me, I have taken this a little farther.

I have found this to be a good place to start.

Blue Ribbon Cookie

Peanut Butter Cookies

My Chinese cookie said I was stuck in a Chinese bakery!!

I'm thinking that there are worst places to be then in a bakery.
My Blood Sugar number for today was 106. Not too bad. But the fair is coming up and baking is something I love to do.

I've started to bake around the house finding the blue ribbon cookie.

I found this recipe on diabeticlivingonline. I think this will satisfy both my need to bake and

not get my to far off track.

This is Jax's story

This is Jax's Story

Jax has left the Tower

Jax exploring the snow

I'm letting go. I saw Tangled the 3D movie, Awesome, but it got me to thinking that its time to let the kittens go. Jax has left the "Tower". I have had this little kitten since it was born in the Spring. I thought that maybe he should be an inside cat, but truly he needs to go out and explore the world. It is the right thing to do and I pray that I don't loose him. He is part of the world so I have let him go free to have adventures.
Here is how I came to have kitten:
I wanted a cat for my studio and my husband said "no, we have two cats." So I brought each one into the studio and asked them if they would like to stay here and be my "studio cat." Each one looked around and promptly left for the outside world. So than I said I want a "kitten" and will get one in spring when kittens are born. Again, Kerry said "no!" Well not more than two days later a small beautiful gray and white cat shows up in my garage, and she's pregnant!!! I brought her into my studio, two days later she had five kittens so not only do I have a studio cat but studio Kittens. Isn't the Universe wonderful????
The mommy cat we named Gabby, and we kept two of her kitten. Jax and Sassy. Slowly they are learning about the outside world.

Sassy and Jax dreaming of adventures

Today's art project from the

The Artist's Muse

by Betsy Dillard Stroud

You can use all three cards to make a painting or just do one. Mix and match...it's up to you.

Circle of Growth~ Do a painting using only Cadmium Orange and a tube black.

Windows of Opportunity~ Pick subject from the Doors of Awareness deck. (Which I have here).

Paint some sky, mountains and land, and paint your chosen subject somewhere in the painting. Make it as important or unimportant as you choose.

Doors of awareness~ Paint an edifice: a barn, a shack or a house with a lot of character or any facet of the building that intrigues you.

Happy creating.
