I’d get so much more stuff done in my scrapbooks, the laundry would be up to date, the dog would get a bath, my garden would be immaculate ……. you get the idea!

Dab-a-do ………… excellent commentary!

I have to plan and save for it ……. but being able to fly home yearly to see my family ………….. it’s more like a treasure than a luxury

Felicia ……… well said! Yes, for humans to be more like cats …………. that indeed is reason enough to smile!

In no particular order ……….. Little post-it notes around the house from my hubby and son My cats snuggling together My Dad’s smile My Mom’s embrace

Susan B ……… “asbestos knickers” …….ROFLMAO! Yes, it really is a fascinating position. I recall her earlier days and felt bad for her. Besides the asbestos knickers, she might have benefited from asbestos chap-stick and cough drops……… she had to choke down much of what was “coming back up” ………….. As of late, she seems to be finding her comfort zone.

Liz ………. Kudos to you! I’m always intrigued my others opinions of themselves …….. your ability and willingness to “reveal” yourself is refreshing!

Oh My! Beth …….. you are priceless and funny! Thanks for the link ………… and the chuckle!

Although I use much of the “high-tech” stuff …… nothing will completely replace my filing cabinet …………….

FYI: Regarding Jenny the Elephant ……………. Here is Lily Tomlin on Good Morning Texas. http://www.wfaa.com/video/entertainment-index.html?nvid=293528

Hi Frannie Em! Marvelous, and yes, I recall reading your earlier post. From small seeds, the reward is abundance!

Oh how I enjoy Mr. Brokaw’s candor and subtle sense of humor! I do regret not submitting my own question of him. I would have asked: What do you find to be the most inspiring as well as the most disparaging aspects of human nature?

With 1million dollars ………….. I would distribute it among those whom I know that are in need and ask that they in-turn then share half of what they’ve received with others that they personally know who are in need. But if I had “second” million dollars available …….. I would purchase Jenny the Elephant from the Dallas Zoo and then transfer her to the Tennessee Sanctuary.

Freedom in my humble opinion is this: Not following the crowd Speaking one’s mind without reprisal Not imposing my will or beliefs on anyone Greed in my humble opinion is this: Disregard for ethical practices in the management of another’s financial dependency Judgemental in my humble opinion is this: Expectation of others to bow to their views Demonstrations of superiority over another individual

Yes, I will be watching, listening and pondering ……. But because I have the ability to multi-task ……. I will also be thinking of Jenny the Elephant …… the circumstances she finds herself in that are beyond her control …….. that she never asked to be in ………. nor were these circumstances of her own making ……. We are fortunate to have choices ………
