I Am an Experienced House/Petsitter and Am For Hire!

Want to support your local bookstore, but don't have room for more books in your house? You can utilize the vast skills of your favorite local bookseller in other ways, such as allowing me to lovingly and carefully care for your home and/or pets while you are out of town. My rates are negotiable, but start at around $25/ day, more depending on the number of animals and level of care needed. Who wouldn't love to come home to a clean house after a relaxing vacation? Leave me a list and some cleaning supplies and I would gladly give your house a detail-oriented cleaning. I will make sure your dogs are walked and played with (cats, too!) as well as fish, plants and mail all taken care of. Next time you think of going out of town, think of me, The English Major for all your home and pet care needs.
Thanks, ya'll!!

You are the whole lake, grasshopper.

"Having gone beyond the mind-made opposites, you become like a deep lake. The outer situation of your life and whatever happens there is the surface of the lake. Sometimes calm, sometimes windy and rough, according to the cycles and seasons. Deep down, however, the lake is always undisturbed. You are the whole lake, not just the surface, and you are in touch with your own depth, which remains absolutely still. You don't resist change by mentally clinging to any situation. Your inner peace does not depend on it. You abide in Being- unchanging, timeless, deathless- and you are no longer dependent for fulfillment or happiness on the outer world of constantly fluctuating forms. You can enjoy them, play with them, create new forms, appreciate the beauty of it all. By there will be no need to attach yourself to any of it."
Eckhart Tolle has spoken.
from The Power of Now, p.195
