[Magdalen] weather/temps...

[Lynn Ronkainen]

Love the dog bed/foot warmer idea!  I too dislike slippers and even 
shoes...especially inside.  Must be my repressed youth when going barefoot 
EVER was forbidden, and punished.  Here, even in the winter, people 'run 
outside' w/out shoes to get mail, take out garbage etc... I guess my feet 
feel at home here  in TX (not sure it's enough of a balance of all the other 
things/lifestyles/government/etc that I'm at odds with in here  <gdr>)

When I stand before God at the end of my life I would hope that I have not a 
single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."

Thomas Merton writes, “People may spend their whole lives climbing the 
ladder of success only to find, once they reach the top, that the ladder is 
leaning against the wrong wall.”
