A good night's sleep, chocolate, the happiness and satisfaction of sharing on AgingCare forum. Does anyone have some favorite things to think about? Yes, this phrase is from the song in the movie "The sound of Music". My husband and I often resort to using movie lines and song to improve communication. We were the only two in a gathering of people who heard the background music playing. We both had the same (cassette tape/CD). A connection bringing two people together. To this day, we crack up when one uses a simple movie line to make a serious point.
SO, What is one of your favorite movie line, some of your favorite things?
Putting my kindle away, 9:15 p.m.PDT.
That was such a good idea, V.

Not responsible if there is a B flat in there, never could read music, but used to play chopsticks by ear, Lol.
So, when bills are paid, that time is my favorite time.

May each day of the week be a good day....Andy Williams
Thanks for the reminder-retrieving a top round slow cook candidate from the fridge, flour, browned, then slow cooked , add potatoes and carrots later for dinner will actually save me time!
Getting out the new supply of sub-lingual B-12 for my dH, taking some myself will also help. It will help me to help him too!
A yay! day if ever there was one.
When my obligation here is done, I will hit the road and not just see North American...but travel and live in all the places that I have read about. I figure about 3-6 months in any one place would be a fair time to really know a place...then move on again. I even have the travel plan itself....but, it is constantly being updated to add more detail and places.
I am going to "do" it all. Or as much as I can before I kick the bucket.
But a little slab of ice will do....
Styx:
I'm sailing away set an open course for the virgin sea
I've got to be free free to face the life that's ahead of me
On board I'm the captain so climb aboard
We'll search for tomorrow on every shore
And I'll try oh Lord I'll try to carry on
I look to the sea reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that we can to carry on
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope and this is what they said
They said come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail…
Away on a slab of ice.

Cwillie, Thanks for re-posting that from Desiderata! Did not see it until just now!

Lord Make My Life a Miracle
These hands, just ordinary hands
Are called upon to meet life's extraordinary demands
These lips could speak the truth in love
But all would be in vain unless empowered from above
How could I ever hope to make a difference
Unless you work a wonder deep within?
CHORUS
Lord make my life, make my life a miracle
May your Spirit be the difference in me
I want to live supernaturally
Make my life a miracle, Lord, a miracle
This mind, teach it through your word
I need the mind of Christ in this world so distorted and blurred
These feet will run to win the prize
No stopping on the way for some enticing compromise
Jesus in me can make a world of difference
Jesus in me - the power of the Lord

So excited for you and your new doggy!
When hubs and I visited the dogs today, I was trying to explain how tiny your chuhuahua was. He said (just like in 101 Dalmations II) that they are so small you could have many more of the same dog underfoot, and this would be a good thing! Ha, ha, ha, lol, wouldn't 101 dogs be great? We wish.
Hubs sent an e-mail, everyone can sing this popular song..but the words ere struck me...
Hallelujah
Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Struck me silly.....
There will be a place with no more suffering
There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
There will be a day.....
Lyrics from a song by Jeremy Camp
An old Staple Sisters song
"I''ll Take You There" is the title.
It is chilly here this morning, I had to plug in a heater for mom (eye roll) ... why can't it just stay a nice 72 degrees? I'm off to push myself out the door for some fresh air... ta ta!
