Not sure where this image is from or WHEN it's from. But I enjoy it. Use it whenever it shows up.
Today is Thursday and the Sun is shining there in Maine....Voting is still taking place... Medicare enrollment is still taking place.....oldest state population in America here in Maine????????
I've wondered about that oldest population thing ever since I first heard it mentioned decades ago. I at first thought it was the average temperature here...the cold air keeping germs from multiplying etc. But now I think it's just hard wired stubborn-ness. And the very cold winters. So many people live well into or close to their 100th birthday. Many of them friends of mine (who I miss every day).
Each asked me to take something of theirs (after they died) that meant so much to them....a quilt, a chair, a sweater, a cast iron casserole....all here and touched and used and worn everyday. Mended as needed. I also took home their fabric and unfinished quilts.....and sort and box and use it all.....to this day.
So....... watched a bit of chat on MSNBC yesterday....but made sure I stopped myself from making it a habit. The talking people were churning the same facts over and over and..well, that has no real purpose does it????? Doesn't change anything.... Same with Storage Wars and Hallmark Movies....Doesn't change anything..
So I went back to my book. And with every page I hope someday I will Own a copy of this book... Crusie's Welcome to Temptation. Until it's due at the library I will pick up the book and randomly open to any page and start reading. (for the next three weeks)...all the pages are a delight. The pages also make me want a Dove Bar. I think my grocery has them somewhere in the Ice Cream Cooler.... I recall them being expensive and the box containing only FOUR. I should get a box on my next birthday. Or for Christmas. Both.
Well, I have oatmeal to microwave and socks to pull on- gets more difficult to do the socks every day!!!!! Keep worrying I'll tip over and land on my face.
