No matter the products you use ……. wash and moisturized daily!

Hi Sandbee …….. sorry about that ………. it reminds me of a bumper sticker from years ago ………. “I’m lost too Eddie”!

Hey Phyllis! you know me ……… I’m in my own euphoric world! oooops!

ooooops! I guess it just “feels” like it’s a Friday!

What a splendid day for a birthday celebration ….. it’s Friday! Enjoy the weekend, too!

Hi Maizie ……. no, regrettably not. I was only a voyeur in my brother’s drafting class assignments from high school. I can paint what I envision, I can draft a floor plan ……… but that’s about it ………. Although it was your “ex”, how exciting to be featured in such a wonderful magazine! I go to the bookstore every month for a cup of coffee and to peek at the newest, latest and greatest! Once a voyeur, always a voyeur ………

For me ………….. Architectural Digest ………….. it’s amazing that I’m still standing after all of these years!

What I’ll miss the most …….. nothing What I’ll miss the least …….. the hateful rhetoric and those who relish in it

Dear Phyllis …….. it is a rare day indeed that another’s written words evoke such emotion in me. I thank you for your eloquence of expression and your honesty by awareness ………..

I watched the returns as did much of the world ……. It is a momentous night, another step toward the relinquishing of the past … stepping up-out-and forward. I trust that we all had the opportunity to watch Senator McCain’s heart-felt expressions of respect and congratulations for President-Elect Obama. He was gracious and sincere ….. it was McCain the man and not the candidate. My husband retired to bed just prior to Barack Obama’s speech. As you can see (read), I have stayed up …… I wanted to see President Elect Obama address our nation. He did so with passion, grace and resolve. It was his best speech to date, not because it made history; but rather it was the affirmation of an individuals’ dream realized.

Hi Beth Willis! Yes, perceptions can and do evoke powerful messages …………My parents wanted me to make my own choices, to be independent. When I became a teenager, they wanted to reconsider their original position. But as for my childhood toys ………. I had Barbie Dolls, Matchbox Cars and a Journal. hee, hee Strawberry Newtons and Milk …………..

My Alias ……….. Kudos, kudos and more kudos to you …………. I do like what you have written here! Thank you ………

Morn’n Miss Carol ………..

I love it! ……. we’re less than 12 hours away from the polls closing for the 2008 election! Liza ……. you’re intuitive and stellar!

Lily ……. I have just now gotten back to my routine of reading posts ………. this one really caught my attention! You are concise, acute and wonderful in your assessment! A great read!
