7:00~1/29/12~Advice from Norah Marler

Lately, New Jersey media, including WCTC radio, have been buzzing about a new book called No More Dating Pigs — You Are What You Date. The book is written by New Jersey writer, Norah Marler.
I received a copy a few weeks ago, and made curious because of the title, it moved up to the top of my reading list. I’m just getting a chance to take a look at it now…full review will be on NSNJ soon.

7:00~1/15/12~Stargazing

You might have to take my word on this, but there are stars in my 7:00 picture tonight.
It’s definitely cold out there, but the sky is clear and quite beautiful over Franklin Park.

7:00~1/13/12~Elijah’s Promise

At 7:00 tonight, I was just about to start cleaning up the kitchen. It was the one at Elijah’s Promise, the soup kitchen in New Brunswick.
I volunteered for the dinner prep shift and, with a team of other volunteers and staff members, helped prepare a meal for almost one hundred people.
My experience at Elijah’s Promise was a very special one, and I will certainly be heading back there to volunteer again.
More about my experience tonight, and information about how to donate to – and how to volunteer with – Elijah’s Promise, will follow on the NSNJ site soon.

7:00~1/12/12~Stretching

Paying attention to my health and overall well-being is something that often gets pushed aside due to a very busy schedule. I’m trying, though, to make a better effort to take good care of myself.
My 7:00 picture tonight was taken where I was stretching my neck and back muscles…and feeling the stress and tension melt away.

7:00~1/9/11~Relaxing

It’s been a long first Monday back to work. Tonight, I’m relaxing at the chiropractor - where I will begin a new stretching routine.
Coming here is a great way for me to shut everything off for a while, pick my feet up, and relax.
So, my photo tonight is from a slightly different angle than usual.
Can you tell what the subject is?

7:00~1/8/12~Researching

Earlier today, I went birding for the first time! I went to the Glades Wildlife Refuge in Newport – a part of the National Lands Trust of NJ and eastern PA.
My guides were full of information and so helpful.
Before I write up my fantastic experience for NSNJ, I want to do a little more research about the trust…that’s where I am at 7:00 tonight.
