May you blessed always with a sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, and a sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.

My Birthday

Saturday, January 7th, 2012

Another year gone by already. Wow – hard to believe.

This year my birthday was on a Sunday and I could take the entire day to relax and just putter around the house. Read the Sunday paper in the recliner and hubby brought me a fresh cup of coffee. That was a nice start to the day!

We went out to dinner at the Cracker Barrel. We could have gone to a fancier place, but I like the food at Cracker Barrel and they know us there, so we never have to wait long for a table. It was nice to have a home cooked tasting meal without me having to do the cooking and the clean up!

My son brought over a stack of new CDs for me. The best of the bunch is the new Eagle’s collection. I listened to a few of the songs this evening and really like the traditional Eagles sound. It was sweet of him to pick out the music for me – he knows how picky I am about music – I can’t hardly stand to listen to the radio anymore. Just some sports talk stations when I’m out driving in the afternoons.

Thanks to everyone who sent me cards and emails – they were really nice. I loved the Hoops and YoYo card from my little sister. That Hoops and YoYo cracks me up! If you aren’t up on Hoops and YoYo, cruise by the Hallmark website and see their free e-cards, their way cool stuff you can buy, and their blog at Hallmark.com.

Set the Clocks Back!

This year we have to set the clocks back next Sunday, which is the designated first Sunday of November. We always set the clocks back last night before bed. That way we can get the extra hour of sleep in the morning. When we do wake up we can enjoy seeing the correct time on all the clocks and we’ll be on time for anything that is time sensitive.

Enough All Ready

What ever happened to the saying “If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all”? People are so cruel these days, it is just so depressing, it’s driving me nuts. I seem to have surrounded myself with such negative people, I’m going to have to do something about it, just not sure how or when, but I’ve about had enough!

Love Quotes

Saturday, February 26th, 2011

I so enjoy finding odd and unique websites when I spend time on the Internet. My Favorites list is so long, I always say that I’m going to organize it better every time I get a new computer, but it always is a mess and it grows way too fast and it’s so hard to go back and delete the old useless ones ya know…..

Anyway, I found this one site that has some of the best “Love Quotes” that I enjoyed reading and I wanted to post a few of my favorites here.

“At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.” “I love you; not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you.” “In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing.”

And the words in this statement are so true:

Immature love says, “I love you because I need you.” Mature love says, “I need you because I love you.”

It’s a well known and proven fact that it is too bad that youth is wasted on the young………………………………..
