APRIL ENTRY

Hi All.

I'm late again with my blog post, not very good at this really. Easter went well, the children from the local school paraded around the block with their Easter Bonnets on, I sat with my poodle Sofi to watch them pass, the children loved seeing her, they all looked great, It will be hard to pick a winner this year.

I haven't done much on the site this month, I had a rest from it, but back on track again so if anyone wants to contribute please do, make it positive though must be uplifting material, that's what Universal Love is all about to spread postive vibes around the world.

I have set up another site called http:celtic-spirit-lyceum.webs.com  it's a site for anyone who would like to learn more about spiritualism the history etc. I hope it catches on as there are so many concepts on the spiritual way of life that are not true, it's nice to be able to help people make their own minds up about it. Knowledge opens the eyes to other ways of looking at things.

Have a good month, I hope we don't get to many April showers. See you next month.

In Universal Love and Peace
Hannah. x ^j^

MARCH ENTRY

Hi, What weather we're having, snow,sun, wind and really cold, then mild. Its a
kaleidoscope of different climates. But it is March so we should expect March winds then April showers to follow.

Not a lot of change on Universal Love this month, but I have put a share this page link on some of the pages, if you wish to have it on a page it's not on let me know and I'll put it on.

Sofi my little pet poodle is doing well, she has had her yearly jab without a peep, and she had her grooming yesterday so looks really great. I'm still trying to find a way of stopping her barking at everything that moves and jumping up at visitors to the house, I know she is only being friendly but not all people like dogs jumping up on them.

Thanks Jo and Allison for posting a comment and your advice, I'll have a go at calling her at the time she barks to distract her from why she was barking, I know barking comes natural to dogs but if it goes on to long it can affect your relationship with your neighbours. I have been told to spray water at her so I might have a go at that as well, will let you know next month how I get on.

Not a lot to say this month, but thought I'd pop in to let you know I'm still around.

New Look Universal Love

Hi there,

I hope you all like the new look we have given our website, as I said we are evolving all the time, we try and make it as easy as possible for visitors to our site to get around it.

There are a few more Artists and Authors who have joined us have a look and see what they offer, also a new look Games page you see the games better and can choose your favourites straight away without looking through a list. There are still a few pages to be revamped, so please look in now and again to see what we are up to.

On the homefront we have had snow here in Wales, not a lot where we live but some of the country meaning Britain has had it rough, especially the North of the country they have a colder climate there anyway. My heart goes out to those people who have lost loved ones in the bad weather, look in at your elderly neighbours now and again to see if they need anything, they are very independant but sometimes need the extra care we can give them, it's only a thought away.

Sofi my little minature poodle is settling in really well with us, she knows most of the house rules now and is abiding by them, except the postman or anyone coming near the house gets her attention and she barks to let us know, love her she thinks she needs to protect us. Barking seems to be her main ocupation at the moment , I will have to work on it, any suggestions on how to stop her barking would be gratefully received.

Well I'll say bye for now until next month.
In Universal Love and Peace

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Hello Everyone.

I have managed to write my blog to wish you all a very Happy New Year before January is out the month has just flown. I'm late with my post as I have been working on my changes with the site.

In our house we had flu all through the Christmas Season, but managed to celebrate it in our own way, Christmas time to me is a giving time, time to reflect on our lives and mend bridges,  Since the time when the three wise men gave presents to the baby Jesus Christians have kept the tradition going. A lot of people seem to think sending cards to each other is a waste of time, but I think it is a way to show you care and are thinking of a person, or show someone you have had a dispute with you are thinking of them,  I have put an E-Card page on my site to give you a choice of different e-card websites, an e-card is another way of of keeping in touch and your also helping the environment at the same time.

I had a wonderful surprise on the 21st Dec a little black miniature poodle called Sophie came to live with us, she needed a new home and I jumped at the chance to have another pet since my dear Highland Terrier Duke passed in 2002. She is settling really well, and learning the house rules quickly considering she is 6 years old I think she is doing well, as the old saying goes "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" well Sophie is proving that saying wrong. She has joined Tyson and Jake on their page Lifestyle under the link Ty Jake Sophie so if you want to see how she is getting on read the emails they send one another on their page.

I've been busy this month, another 2 pages that have been changed firstly the Candle page, you can now read the messages written, I decided to do this as the Memorial page is just that a chance for you to light a candle for a loved one who has passed. The Candle page gives you more scope where you can light a candle for any reason, and write a message with it, I am a partner of Virtual Candle Journey they send the messages that have been written from Universal Love to me by email, so the idea came to me to post the messages on the Candle page.

The next one is the Games page, I haven't been happy with the layout for a while, so now you have a chance to visit the Games Room directly, the other games are now shown by icons of the games illustrated.  It is easier for you to see a picture of the game you wish to play, please remember to use your Back Button to get back into Universal Love.

I don't know if you have noticed but the nights are drawing out, it is getting lighter in the evenings and mornings now, so Spring is around the corner my favourite season,  All the seasons have their beauty but it is only Spring that gives us new birth in nature.

Until the next post, Love, Laugh and be Happy.

In Universal Love and Peace

The last entry for 2008

Dear friends. My blog has been abused by small minded and dirty minded people who's only purpose in life is to distrupt and cause mayhem, I will not put up with this filthy immature nonsense and have disabled the tab on this blog. If anyone with true desires to spread positive vibes around the world wish to promote their site on Universal Love they can do so by sending me their link. or use the free directory which is monitored by me daily.

Now back to more happier subjects, Christmas is almost upon us, Advent has started and the calendar I have put at the bottom of the homepage curtesy of google gives you the countdown to Christmas day. you can see what is in the boxes by clicking on the squares that have been opened.

Christmas time is a time for giving no matter how small the gift is as long as it's given with love it is priceless, the gifts I treasure are the ones that were made for me by my children when they were younger, unfortunatly they have their lives to live and go and make their way in the world, but they always know there is home to come back to and recharge their batteries so to speak for their lives away from home no matter how old they are.

Christmas means so many things to me the birth of our Lord Jesus who was given gifts by the 3 wise men we carry it forward into the 21st century and give gifts to our family and friends it's a time for families to get together and reminise about the days gone by, and the hopes for the future. a time to mend bridges and make peace.
This will be my last entry for this year, I am dating this entry the 20th of December in memory of my mother who died on this day in 1950. May your god be with you always.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR. FROM WALES, GREAT BRITAIN.

Live for Today

Hi Everyone.

You must be wondering why I called this blog entry Live for Today.

Each day seems to be like the former, but think about it, not everyday is the same each day of our lives are unique to us, be they happy or sad, something happens in each day of our lives even the most mundane days have their purpose. By living for today and not looking backwards we can make our lives more positive, more interesting. The only thing to do is to look after yourself and be as positive and happy as you can, as the saying goes don't worry about the past it has gone, tomorrow looks after it'self, live each day as if it is your last.

This philosophy was brought on by the sad news of 8 people I know who have passed into the higher life since June, it made me think we are all on this earth for such a short time, so make the most of each day, let your loved ones know you care for them while you can, tomorrow waits for no man.

Now to a happier subject, We have been revamping our kitchen this week, my husband Eric, friend Ken, and Ikea have done us proud, it looks great, I have the more pleasant and easier task of shopping for new assessories which won't be a hard task I'm sure I will be able to manage it okay.

Our Summer didn't turn up in August after all, the poor school kids didn't have many fine days to play outside, no wonder people buy houses with play rooms in mind these days. Still always the optimist they say we are going to have a better September.

Talking about weather I had to take the weather tool off the home page, it wasn't working to well, still we need to try new things to see how they work. I'm looking all the time to find new web tools to enhance the site. So watch this space.

I've added a few more new links on the Links page, hope you like them, I try and make a varied selection for you all. There are also more Links on my Free Links Directory, remember you can add your website or favourite website to it anytime.

There are two new stories on teh Lifestyle page I'm sure you will enjoy reading.

Well can't hang around here got lots of cupboards to fill see you soon.

In Universal Love and Peace.

Where has our Summer gone.

Hi, Looking out of my window I wonder where our summer has gone, the rain is pouring down here at the moment, I've come to the conclusion that Wales is the rain forest of Britain, he he. It seems ages since I had my holiday in Spain but it's only a few weeks ago, I was complaining about the heat there, never again. The children will be breaking up for their summer holidays soon, I hope the weather will be kinder for them so they will be able to get outside in the fresh air to play.

I haven't got much to say this month, due to me having a chest infection that is hanging on and not getting better quick enough for me, even taking antibiotics hasn't shifted it. But as the song says I'll survive.

I'm so pleased to see people are using my free links directory, there are a lot of different websites there for you to visit, Please feel free to add your own website if you have one.

I hope you will enjoy using the weather forecast tool at the bottom of the index page, I find it very handy when I want to know what the weather is going to be like for the week ahead, just type in the town you live in where it says edit, a list will come up with your town on, click on it and away you go.

I still haven't had time to get my head around my blog yet, There are some great blogs out on the web, mine looks a little bland compared to some of them, The blog is getting very popular these days, everyone seems to have one. I'll see what bravenet has to offer to brighten mine up a bit. If you have any ideas to share with me please get in touch through the contact page.

That's all for now folks, Enjoy your Summer rain or shine.

In Universal Love and Peace Hannah. ^j^

Where is our Flaming June

I'm making sure I'm early with my blog post this month to make up for my lack of time keeping last month.

Here we are in June and the rain is teeming down, high winds and cold. In Britain we have a saying about June "Flaming June " which means the weather is usually very hot, but so far we have missed it. but always the optimist I am sure it is just around the corner. We did have some scorching weather in May so maybe we had our "Flaming June" early who knows.

I'll be away from it next week as I'm going to Spain for a holiday, I'm busy shopping, packing and shopping getting ready to go. Like all us girls I will probably take to much but better to be prepared than get caught out without something, it could be expensive to buy in Spain. My husband packs the night before usually using one case, I on the other hand take everthing except the kitchen sink. I think he's the wise one as I don't use half the things I take, does it sound familiar girls.

I went to my best friends daughters wedding a few weeks ago, it was held in a hotel everything was so relaxed and we all had a wonderful time. Although there are still many weddings taking place in church here more and more people are taking our American cousins custom of getting hitched elsewhere, I myself don't mind either way, to me it's the ceremony of two people in love commiting themselves to each other where they do is their choice.

I hope you are enjoying the Universal Love Free Greetings service I have provided, I love sending e-cards to my family and friends, it 's a great way to keep in touch and a boon to be able to send someones an e-card when your busy and not able to go and buy one. I hope you will keep using it as a way to enhance your lives in a positive way.

The answer to the riddle was the Lions den because if they hadn't eaten for 3 years they would be dead and it would be quite safe to enter.

Bye for now I'll will write again next month when I will have more to tell you about my holiday in Spain. God Bless in Universal Love and Peace Hannah ^j^

Happy May Day

Hi, It's May Day Bank holiday here, everyone has a day off to celebrate the start of spring. In the olden days and some places still do they dance around a Maypole, which is a tall pole with ribbons handing down from the top, then people take hold of the ribbons and dance around the Maypole, the tradition goes back to medievel times. In England they have Morris Dancers as well, two rows of men face one another and dance with the traditional costume of the Morris dancer on, of course there is more to it than that, but as I live in Wales we don't have the same tradition so I'm afraid I can't explain all the steps and moves that the Morris dancer do, they depict different themes I think.

I had a great surprise the other day on Link Referrel where I use to promote Universal Love. I visited a site called  http://littlebitsofthat.blogspot.com there was a riddle there which I thought I knew the answer to, but when I tried to send it in there were no verification letters to fill in so it wouldn't go, I send an email to Lisa the site owner explaining it and gave her my answer to the riddle. She was kind enough to write back to me to let me know I had the right answer and she would post it on her site, WOW, I was over the moon, I have never sent in anything for a competition before never mind getting it right. Here is the riddle, see if you can answer it.

"A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?" 

If you know the answer let me know throught my guestbook.  

If not I'll give you the answer in the next blog entry.

Bye for now, keep happy and have fun.

Happy Easter

Hello Everybody, Here I am again, late with this months entry only just made it, I hope you all had a great Easter Holiday, My family were not so lucky I'm afraid, we all went down with a stomach bug, so no Easter dinner or chocolate for us this year, just drank boiled water, which did the trick, we're all fine now and making up for it.

The weather was really sunny, which was good for the little ones from the local primary school as they paraded their Easter Bonnets around the block where we live, I remember my son doing the same thing, they do it every year, it's great to see them and the beautiful bonnets they make themselves. I took a photo, but feel it's not proper to show it here for privacy reasons. Shame though.

My forum has gone a bit quite, so get going and post a subject for everyone to answer, or answer one already there, If you have a problem why not post it, you don't have to leave your full name or email, someone will have been through the same problem and might be able to help you. After all that's what this website is all about to help one another along our lifes journey.

I'll say bye for now, Look after yourselves until we meet again. Hannah.
