Stephen Gerard Scullion posted a blog postPondering the problems of the world
As I was lying around, pondering the problems of the world, I realized that at my age I don't really give a rat's arse anymore... If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal... A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water, but is still fat... A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 15 years, while.. A tortoise doesn't run and does mostly nothing, yet it lives for 150 years.And you tell me to exercise?? I don't think so.Just grant me the senility to forget the people I…See More
Stephen Gerard Scullion posted a blog postThe computer swallowed Grandma!
The computer swallowed Grandma, Yes, honestly it's true! She pressed control and enter And disappeared from view. It devoured her completely, The thought just made me squirm, She must have caught a virus Or been eaten by a worm. I've searched through the recycle bin And files of every kind, I've even used the Internet, But nothing did I find. In desperation, I asked Mr Google My searches to refine The reply from him was negative, Not a thing was found online. So, if inside your inbox My Grandma…See More

Stephen Gerard Scullion posted a blog postEXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OVER 50!
Don't overdo it at first...... Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato bags. Then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 10-lb potato bag in each hand…See More
Stephen Gerard Scullion posted a blog postThree Little Words
If someone mentioned the phrase "three little words" what would your mind conjure up? So many of the most significant messages that people deliver to one another often come in just three words. When spoken or conveyed, those statements have the power to forge new friendships, deepen old ones and restore relationships that have cooled. The following three word phrases can enrich every relationship every bit as much as the most obvious one.I am here. Being there for another person is the…See More
Stephen Gerard Scullion commented on Stephen Gerard Scullion's blog post The Starfish"It is stories like this that help me put my own life into perspective, Joanna. Take care and enjoy what's left of the weekend..."
Joanna Wren commented on Stephen Gerard Scullion's blog post The Starfish"Thank you for that story. It made me think a lot. Sometimes we can give up too soon when we feel overwhelmed."
Stephen Gerard Scullion posted a blog postThe Starfish
Every little thing we do makes a difference. No matter how small it seems, it could be huge to someone else. Once a man was walking along a beach. The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. Off in the distance he could see a person going back and forth between the surf's edge and and the beach. Back and forth this person went. As the man approached, he could see that there were hundreds of starfish stranded on the sand as the result of the natural action of the tide.The man was stuck by…See More

Hello Stephen
Many thanks for your message abotu that puzzle - very interesting.
I thought I'd send you a quick message to draw your attention to a new topic I've just posted about community resources as I think you'd have some good thoughts to share on the topic!
I'm looking to encourage us all to discuss local resources and community events, and as quite an active member of the site, and a family north-easterner (!), I was wondering if there any local projects in your area you'd like to tell people about? You can see my post and reply to it here.
Look forward to hearing from you
Kathryn
