Lovely to read your post Laurel and hear is hoping you have many more moments outside soaking up the sunshine.
What beautiful pictures, Laurel! I know how much seeing the natural beauty adds small moments of joy to every day, even during the darkest times.
Being outdoors picks me up like nothing else! I have a goal to spend at least 10 minutes outdoors every day, even if it's just lying on the deck. I rarely manage it EVERY day, but I try.
So glad you got to enjoy seeing your family during their visit - I hope that one day you will be able to join them on their hikes and outings.
Beautiful pictures as always. Especially the snow in the desert. I've never seen a picture quite like that. I'm happy you got to go outside and see the whole sky. And happy ten year anniversary to you and Jim!
the snow on the cactus is so beautiful! we saw snow through the desert when we drove through your part of the world many years ago.
it must be lovely for you to get out into the sunshine and take in the beauty of the outdoors.
Your descriptions of what you see around you almost make me want to move to Arizona. You do a wonderful job of explaining what your life is like. I admire your courage.
What lovely pictures! Thank you for sharing. I am so glad you were able to sit outside and I do hope it can become a more frequent occurrence. I just discovered your blog. I am looking through M.E. blogs to try and help pass along some information about severe M.E patient Karina Hansen. I found myself debating as whether to share it or not. I have M.E. and have had years of being mainly housebound and during the time some of it I was bedbound. However I have not had true severe M.E. so I don't want to ask you to exacerbate your symptoms. However I dislike it when people keep things from me because of my illness. I will just leave a quick summary and if you want to know more please feel free to contact me.
Karina is a severe M.E patient in Denmark forcibly removed from her home and there are petitions circulating in support of her. I will leave you the link. Please take care and I truly wish you more good days and happy surprises out of your window until there is a cure.
Laurel, I'm so happy that you were able to actually get outside for while, and see the sky overhead. That must have felt amazing.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful desert pictures. I love the desert and it's one of things I really miss. I wish I could smell the scent of the desert in spring again, especially after a rain.
Yes yes yes ! ! ! The great outdoors! Let that visit outside feed your fire, lady. We shall overcome.
Your photos are just gorgeous, especially the one of the snow on the cactus - such an unusual and precious thing to witness! I'm glad you were able to spend some time outdoors. It's really amazing to have that connection with nature, even for a short time.


The Internet Society has released the 'State of IPv6 Deployment 2018′ report , which looks at the progress made in the deployment of Internet Protocol model 6 (IPv6) across nations, networks, and service suppliers all over the world. If an envelope is dropped into a mailbox with the zip code written first, adopted by the road tackle, followed by the state, and so on, the submit office won't deliver it. There's an agreed-upon protocol for writing addresses to ensure that the postal system to work.
The difference between an IP address and a postal tackle is that they do not correlate with a selected location per se: as an alternative, they're routinely or manually assigned to networked gadgets throughout the connection set up. Internet Protocol" performs an necessary function on this process.
Paket data tersebut akan dipecah ke dalam fragmen-fragmen yang memiliki ukuran most transmission unit (MTU) yang lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan ukuran datagram IP. Proses ini dinamakan dengan fragmentasi (Fragmentasi paket jaringanfragmentation).
IP networks function by routing packets to destinations. WORD: IP can also be quick for "IP deal with," as in "What is your IP?" In this case, IP refers back to the distinctive identifier of a system, not the protocol itself. The biggest difference between IP packet journey on the Web and surface mail, is that IP routing is blindingly faster.
The gateway laptop reads the vacation spot tackle and forwards the packet to an adjacent gateway that in flip reads the vacation spot address and so forth across the Web until one gateway recognizes the packet as belonging to a pc inside its rapid neighborhood or domain That gateway then forwards the packet directly to the pc whose address is specified.


There is an abundance of different gear and gadgets on the market designed to entertain babies and give new parents some much-needed relief. Unfortunately, even the top brand-name children's manufacturers sometimes overlook design errors and defects that could make these items dangerous for children. In terms of product liability, baby gear recalls and toy recalls top the list among all recent recalls. Most importantly, defects and errors have the potential to result in serious accidents and injuries.
While new parents typically worry about mishandling their infants or which way they lay them in a crib, the biggest danger likely comes from the products you are using to care for them. According to a March 2017 report by National Public Radio (NPR), injuries to small children and babies as the result of product defects are on the rise in the U.S. Over the last 10 to 15 years, baby injuries have risen by nearly 25 percent. Among the most common culprits in these injuries are baby nursery supplies, including strollers, high chairs, carriers, and cribs.
These injuries typically occur in the home, and often due to the child wiggling, squirming, or falling over the sides. Unfortunately, when young children fall, they tend to do so head first. As a result, head and neck injuries are common.
Parents are warned to never leave children unsupervised when strapped into a stroller or high chair, and to hold onto them at all times when using a changing table. At the same time, manufacturers owe a duty of care to consumers in ensuring products are constructed with the proper safety harnesses and that packaging contains clear warnings as to the potential dangers. Failing to provide this can leave them legally liable for injuries that occur.
At Anastopoulo Law Firm we believe in holding product manufacturers responsible for the grief they cause. If your child has been injured as the result of dangerous defects associated with baby gear recalls or toy recalls, call or contact our South Carolina product liability attorneys online today. We can arrange a free consultation to discuss your case and how we can assist you in getting compensation for the injuries and pain your family has suffered.

Today West Coast residing artist Chris Goma delivers his new project Castle In the Woods. Diving deep into his own psyche and even the mind of the listener, Chris Goma gives fans a project they can run back for years to come. Timeless in nature and carefully designed like a castle's architecture, this project leads fans on a mental and audible journey that will leave a lasting impression.Â
"Castle in the Woods represents a place in your mind where you feel free love and acceptance from your surroundings and the people in it, and so that reflects itself in your real environment," Chris Goma said. "There's a song I wrote that's on this album that was the first song I wrote when I came to California and I just wrote thoughtlessly and really tried not to over think it. The song was about me being free and that journey of finding freedom, really it's the pursuit of happiness for myself and for the people around me."
Dedicating the project to his fan's spiritual and mental journey, Chris Goma says each song has a different style or genre but overall it encompasses R&B and soul sound.Â
"As I've grown as an artist I've learned that I like songs that are not barred by genre and I feel like the influences step from different styles of music. I love jazz, I love Hip-Hop and I love R&B. if a song needs to have country then I'm going to include that in there. I think my music is some sort of eclectic genre and so I feel like there is an R&B component to it. Chris Goma said.
But the pursuit of happiness hasn't been an easy ride for Chris Goma who was conceived in Rwanda and born in the United States after his family escaped the genocide that became famous across the world as the Hutu slaughtered Tutsi, Twa and anyone else who resisted the massacre.Â
"Basically music saved me quite literally, before my mother even gave birth to me. My dad got a Fulbright Scholarship to the Berkeley School of Music a week before I was born. His older brother was a big musician in Central Africa and his brother motivated him," Chris Goma explained. "My dad is brilliant, he knows 6 or 7 languages, he's an incredible musician and all that, but they fled Rwanda a week before the genocide and were lucky enough to board a cargo plane that just so happened to be going to Boston. I was born a few months after that. For me as I got older that was always in the back of my mind – music really pushed my dad and saved our family."
From those humble beginnings in Africa to his movements in Boston, Canada and California, Chris Goma has always had a passion for music.Â
"I street performed for rent for the first 8 months I was living in California and I went through hell and back. I never ended up being homeless because luckily I rented from someone who was a producer and vocal coach and he took me in as a protege. But then my life changed. I lived in the Bay area and then in 2016-2017 I came across Prince's music director who is a mentor of mine. He ended up being like an uncle to me and showed me a lot expanding my musical preferences and styles," Chris Goma said. "I want my fans to try to listen to the full project from beginning to end. There are little nuggets in each song and each song has a different style or genre. From songs one through nine, I think fans are really going to love the journey and all the styles within it. The last song is really crazy too so def peep that!"
