Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
This is the Wakefield Doctrines’ contribution to the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT) bloghop. Weekly posts published continuously since 1834 ( q.v. Grat(s) #5 and 6) This is an actual, genuine, beneficial exercise for anyone concerned with maintaining as healthy a perspective on the world around (us) and the people who make it up.
For this week, positive touch-points ( which are able to not only neutralize negative energies, but stimulate the gathering of positive energy in the course of a day) are as follows:
1) Una
2) Phyllis
3) the Wakefield Doctrine
4) new waterbed sleep-able now (after five days to raise the temp sufficiently) photo at top of post
5) the internet/virtual world in general specifically, this week, cited in Grat 6 (come on! how cool is it to find information of such variety and abundance any time of day!)
6) the Night the Stars Fell (who reading this is not thinking, ‘Man! What an excellent title for a story/novel or name of a blog!’) see article and cool site here.
7) Hypo-grat: seems that all the votes are in and the chances of Summer not being over are way diminishing. Not our favorite time of year by a long sight.
8) Mimi (as role model i.e. the most powerful sales technique ever developed. walk that walk, yo)
9) something, something
10) Secret Rule 1.3

yeah, interesting little corner of the (virtual) world, ya know?
As to #6, agree. Would make an exceptional, if not, unique title.
Here’s to “Positive touch points”.
Excellent list.

I never really considered that the water in waterbeds would need to be kept warm, but that makes sense.
Mimi is great at TToTing, isn’t she?
even with the modern beds (which have internal baffling to reduce the excessive waves of the original ‘queen-sized bags of water) there is still probably 100 gallons of water to be heated from out-of-the-well temperatures to ‘that’s the idea! a warm bed on a cold night.

I can’t hear “waterbed” without thinking of the 1970s ones that undulated with the slightest movement and had the wooden frame around them. There was no graceful way in or out of one!
the grace was in the lack of a lifetime of experience dragging on our arms and legs, pulling on body parts that simply were
