TGIF

A Hollywood star who has a few chosen words about what is going on today.    I think that once you accept the power seat in any job, especially a Government one, the brain does a flip flop and ceases to work anymore.   It goes into hibernation and the empty light head runs amuck.   

Make a copy and put it on your bumper . . . good advice.   

I am having fun with my children, can hardly wait for son Michael to join us.    And, granddaughter Erin would be a great addition to all the fun and delicious offerings we are enjoying.   Yesterday was a walk through Port Orchard going in and out of the antique stores.    John met Bobbie, the owner of the largest store in town and a member of the Gallery.    Then the owner of one of the smaller shops visited with us and came over to the next shop to talk about the old time knobs they used to carry.  I  gather glass was in at one time and had uncontested beauty.   They are not around any more.   We invited Pat and Christine to join us at the Market for their delicious fish chowder.  Chris got a conference call so had to stay put but Pat joined us and the chowder was delicious.  We got some for Chris and Pat brought it home to her.    All in all we saw some beautiful old 'things' some of which we either gave away or threw away and now find we should have hung on to them.   There is a lot of good value in having something old, too bad it doesn't work with age.  John delighted in telling I was going to have a birthday , if there had been a roving reporter around I'd be headlines on the front of the newspaper.

Happiness is family.   I hope you make a date with your family members and make your corner of the world a happy place.     If fences need mending, get busy.    If you are too busy, relax and smell the roses;   reach out....stretch those arms in a welcome hug and find some true happiness .   Some folks have no idea what a family is. . . so adopt ....get on the road to wonderment.     You only get out of life what you put into it, no more, no less.     So be a building block and get busy today.    A phone call, a note, a word, a hug, um....I want all of that in my life, how about you?   Hugs to all.
