Minion-Making Music Multiplies the Merriment
We all have songs that remind us of specific periods and events in our lives. Twenty years from now, which song will remind you of the summer of 2014? I know some of you might think that a song can get too much air time on the radio, but I don't think this one can ever be over-played. … Continue reading Minion-Making Music Multiplies the Merriment
Today Really is 20 Days To Go!
On July 9th I mistakenly counted only 20 days until my year-long journey of posting a thank you each day would be over... I counted wrong. Maybe it was because that had been my 345th post and so I just assumed there were 20 days left. I just looked at the calendar and realize that … Continue reading Today Really is 20 Days To Go!
The Honor System is Alive and Well, In Vermont
As I mentioned in yesterday's post, my husband and I were in Vermont for a few days. For the ride home we decided that instead of the interstate we'd travel some back roads south to get home. We left the hotel at about 9:30 and had not yet eaten breakfast, figuring we would find some … Continue reading The Honor System is Alive and Well, In Vermont

When I decided that the husband and I needed a getaway that would feel like a getaway, this is where I decided to take us. I kept it a secret for quite … Continue reading Lovely Lakeside Views
LILBUGA
I was SO hoping to be able to use this picture for something when I took it. I was coming off I-95 in Providence and this little pink bug was in front of me. As I got closer I could see better what was in the window. Clearly, she is a Hello Kitty fan...a BIG … Continue reading LILBUGA
Nosey Delights: Vegetable Garden
I've written before about favorite smells; summer = Coppertone, Christmas = gingerbread cookies. Today when I got home from I walked over to our garden to one of my favorite smells, fresh as can be zucchini, summer squash, cucumbers, and...the first ripe tomato of the season! Thanks today to my husband for planting and tending … Continue reading Nosey Delights: Vegetable Garden
Who Cares What Other People Think?
Here's today's writing prompt: A mad scientist friend offers you a chip that would allow you to know what the people you’re talking to are thinking. The catch: you can’t turn it off. Do you accept the chip? Here's my answer: Nope!
Live With Heart
Everyday I get the daily Buddha Doodle post; they're terrific and always make me smile. Today's did not disappoint. After I'd read it I happened by a coworker's office. She's getting ready to go out on a medical leave--it was somewhat planned but she will be out longer than she'd originally expected. Initially she was meant … Continue reading Live With Heart
