Welcome To This Blog: It is All About Me (And lots of my opinions on lots of subjects)

Hi. My name is Corinne. I have started this blog so that the people who are tired of listening to me will get a break from having to listen to my constant flow of feelings, thoughts, emotions, actions and reactions.

I have a tendency to choose negative reactions to life events and have recently decided that it is time to let those negative reactions go. My goal is to choose my feelings and to accept responsibility for my own actions, in order to correspond with Reality, instead.

And I am not talking about perceived reality, reality imposed upon me by others or reality seemingly imposed by life events but Reality - the big "R", the reality that actually IS. The Reality created by the higher self, the reality that Knows, Loves, Creates and is bounteous. Yup.

So, follow this with me, please; I love cows. My family has cow terminology that describes many of our social rituals and describes life events and family traditions. That is why my blog is titled, Deja Moo. This blog  is about things that you all have experienced in listening to me, living with me and watching what I do. By doing this in the past you have learned a lot about who I am as a person. And this is important, because, as I have said, this IS all about Me. (Note the capital "M" lol).



A Herford: Someone who is a real jerk, ie., "Don't be a Herford."
"Having a herf": Means getting into a troublesome spot with something or arguing with someone. This generally denotes an unpleasant event; closely related to the plea, "Don't herf me about this", or "Stop herfing around", or "Well, that was a real herf!".


The Herford Hall of Fame: Reserved for really huge, outrageous and generally stupid urban artifacts
 depicting cows and other stupid looking items seen from one's car window. Rated on a scale of 1 through 10 and usually gauged by the uncomplimentary or mildly demeaning nature to cows, or to the human senses, or both.


Herfing: Going somewhere or doing something specific, usually for recreation, on your own or with someone else in the family which, often  is really fun, but may include activities that will get you into trouble.  May occur on special occasions, in secret or just for the heck of it. Kind of like hanging out, but sometimes even more fun.
"Let's go Herf": Means, "Let's plan something really fun for the day", (or for another time in the near future).


And, finally I will add this photo depiction of the Herf legacy left behind by my mom Louise Maurer and cheerfully tolerated by my dad, Max Maurer, brought to you with affection and nostalgia <3

Now, with all cow humor history aside, I acquiesce; You may perceive, as you are reading, that all of this is "BS", i.e., "bullxxxx that you have seen (and/or heard) before"; But, I am confident that once you have read this blog for awhile, you will recognize that some of this stuff is not only on MY mind, but is on your own minds, as well. 

This is my energy. I own it. I acknowledge it and now I choose to direct it to effect my feelings, direct my actions, create my experiences and govern my life's events. My goal is to validate and honor the big "R".

Then again, I realize that  there will be a lot of stuff in this blog that you will acknowledge as uniquely my own thought process. This will be stuff that you have never even thought of, conceived or experienced in your own life to this point; And then you will have the opportunity to experience your own energy about what I write, and you will choose your own feelings.

You may also choose your own actions and/or reactions with which to create your own experiences and govern your own life events. May the energy you feel, the feelings and actions you choose and the things you create with this be positive and pleasant as you discover what I have called the big "R". <3

So, with that said, I hope you will enjoy following my blog! Moo!
