Up
Content by Mitch Osborne
I rented the movie “Up” for my nephew because he would love the movie because he loves balloons. I was right. He wanted to watch the movie over and over again. Unfortunately, we had to return the movie to the store and he was disappointed when he could not watch it anymore. My sister has DIRECTV and one of the movie channels started playing “Up.” My sister was able to record it and now my nephew can watch the movie any time he wants to. It is so funny to hear him laugh at the movie. Every times he watches it, he is as equally impressed and excited to see the balloons lifting the house up. I actually even enjoy watching the movie too. I think that most of the movies they make for kids today also have some adult humor in it. It is probably a good idea to include some adult humor for the sanity of the adults who have to watch over and over again. However, after watching “Up” about a hundred times, I am ready for my nephew to move on to his next movie obsession.
Happy Yule To All
No matter what you are doing take time to give thanks for all that you have!
Happy Yule!
Great Addition For Meditation
Try looking into the zabuton cushions that are designed for those that meditate. They are wonderful and reasonably priced. I know that I actually have one and for the longer meditations they help with comfort. Trying a few other things to use just did not work. This cushion did.
If you get some cash for Yule and looking for something to buy this might be the perfect gift to yourself!

Yule Count Down
I still have decorations to put up and away and I do not see that I will have the time.
There is still so much to do with work, children events and other things that the things I want to do is piling up.One thing that I really did want and hoping that one of my children purchased is one of the decorative
house address plaques that I pointed out, sent URL's to and emails about. Yep, I put out enough hints that I am hoping they bought one!
Only a few more days to find out. I know that with everything that I have to do I will not be thinking about it until Yule!

Last Minute Detail Cleaning
It would make it so much easier and cleaner than my doing it that is for sure.
One thing that I did notice is that I needed some quick leather furniture cleaning tips before the Yule holiday hit. No matter what I do this one chair does not look bright and clean. I have looked all over the place for quick tips and nothing seems to work.
Now it's down to a point of having a professional cleaner clean it or just replace the chair completely this year. I will try one more method that I found discussing leather furniture cleaning tips and if that doesn't work, well I guess I will be shopping for a replacement!
