This entry goes in the name of my good friend, Miss K, and her addiction. Nothing better than some refreshing Acqua Internazionale – S. Pellegrino for an extremely hot and humid afternoon. It’s been raining, but it gets even worse with all the water in the atmosphere :-P Thank God for the refrigerator to keep cool beverages!

Third post in less than an hour… so many things in my head! Ok, I have these beautiful African Violets (3 of them) my hubby bought for me a couple of months ago, but they have stopped flowering and I’m so sad! I’m taking good care of them (I think) and the leaves look healthy, but no flowers… boo hoo! I found this fact sheet telling how to take proper care of them, but tips or other kind of information would be very welcome. I know many of you out there are good gardeners :-) Thank you!!
But I’m proud to say that my balcony garden is getting more beautiful everyday and I have new blooms and everything! People in the neighborhoold must think I’m crazy because I go out in the balcony way too much just to check on them. But hey! This is my first garden! ;-)

I’m doing a major blog surfing this morning, while chatting with Miss Patty (who hates cantaloupe, BTW). I deleted my cookies last night and now I’m find myself typing all my info again, but I don’t care… I will be Bea for now.
Anyway, I found one of those posts everyone will have something to say (or think) about at Gabriel’s and rather than saying something here, just go and read the long comment I left (sorry for the abuse, Gabriel!). He says he doesn’t want to touch those issues that make people to go overboard, but I think it is better to do it and stand up for yourself. I like people with character, I like people who are not afraid to say what they think and if they do it decently, like Gabriel did, it’s even better.
When it comes to religion I wish everyone had an open mind… it’s all about tolerance. I grew up Catholic and I respect what I was taught, but I just don’t think the rest of the people of the world are wrong. They just have chosen different paths to go to the same place I’m going. That is what we all have to fully understand and maybe all the stupid wars based on religion will end.

Oh my! This is simply too good to be true, but yes… it’s true! Check it out. I’m drooling here! Just the idea of having access to beautiful photography without having to register and pay makes me get the goose bumps. Is it possible? Such beauty??
I’m in the blogging mood today. Even had the crazy idea of joining the Blogathon, but I don’t have the time or the strength to blog every 30 minutes for 24 hours… I just can’t. However, I’m going to check the list of participants and maybe sponsor one of the cool people who are blogging to help different charities.
Public Announcement: If I’m in your Yahoo! Messenger list and you have tried to contact me, but I don’t respond, it’s surely because you don’t happen to be on my list (edited my address book and lost a few contacts when importing from Outlook Express — the two are connected) and my messenger is setup to ignore all users not on my list (to avoid spam). Let me know if you’re having trouble with this and send me your ID so I can add you. Thanks for not getting upset!

Via Gabriel, I found this very interesting page about disclaimers and how when you start sharing your life and thoughts online, you have to keep in mind a few things. It also goes for the readers of blogs and all the website building community. Very simple rules to make our online life easy.
