I got up today to be able to pay my mortgage and other bills. Now, please don't take that wrong. It is a good thing because I have wonderful, snug home in a beautiful area of California. In fact, it is so pretty, right now a hummingbird had built a nest and is sitting on her eggs in my garden. I think that is pretty special.

So, my right livelihood keeps me and my sister living in this lovely home with good food and cable tv. I am so blessed.

I got up today because I am not one of the unfortunate people in Haiti and, if they can get up and carry on, so can I.

So I went off to the chaos of the re-organization of my job and will continue to smile. I know what I am doing and will wait till the new supervisors catch on.

What got you out of bed today?
