'Sesame Street' creates first Muppet to have a parent in jail

“I just miss him so much,” he tells a friend. “I usually don’t want people to know about my Dad.”

Meet Alex, the first Muppet to have a dad in jail. According to a Pew Charitable Trusts report, one in 28 children in the United States now has a parent behind bars -- more than the number of kids with a parent who is deployed -- so it’s a real issue, but it’s talked about far less because of the stigma.

Homemade Vacuum Freshener
by kristinburns
Pour a few drops of your favorite essential oil on a handful of dryer lint. Put it on the floor and vacuum it up. Voila! Every time you vacuum, you will smell the lovely oil.

...Thank you! Sounds like a great idea :)

'A jug fills drop by drop.'

I like the visualization of having a full heart. One that is golden and radiating and satisfied.

Like the jug, the heart too can become full drop by drop, moment by moment.

Circle of Love

I've been volunteering with a great group called Circle of Love.
We write letter to people in need of a pick me up through the mail.
Perhaps the recipient is ill, or a care taker, had a loss, is lonely, or something else.

It is a great treat write one letter a week to the same recipient for 3 months.

They do not have to write back and rarely they do but occassionally you get word back from the organizer that your letters are really being helpful to the recipient. And that's nice.
