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?
Whatever name you choose or keep will be fine, I'm sure.
Cwillie, So sorry you became ill. I have noticed that even days before the actual symptoms of an illness we can get very irritable, so forgive yourself and start over. You are facing big decisions, and as long as you are undecided, that will add to your burden. You are right to ask for suggestions about deciding.
Get well soon. Then decide. For now, you can decide to defer the decision to a later time.
I love it when, hubs will make himself lunch and he shares some with the dog. It is so funny as I listen to him talk to the dog.
Hubs: "I gave you 5 pieces of the burrito, I didn't put hot sauce on the pieces I gave you."
Dog: She looks sadly at him, blinking her eyes.
Hubs: "Don't look like you are going to cry, I shared with you. I guess I could make a couple more, but you would sit and look at me like this even if I gave you more."
LOL!!! The big tough man has a heart!!!
Oh my gosh, he has passed on now but suppose she is on this site and sees this post. She could easily work out who wrote it couldn't she? Maybe I should just change my name.Now what should i call myself? Any suggestions?
Or you ca have the ashes made into diamonds and crystals for a price. One lady had a firework display suing her hubby's ashes.
Id like to be dropped over the side of a boat in the caribbean so the sharks can feed on me because I don't think we actually are at the top of the food chain and that would prove it!
Mmmm, turkey wings. So much more worthwhile than those tiny little chicken wings they have nowadays. Can you imagine them with bbq sauce?
The second is this song. Its an old Yorkshire song and for brevity I have missed out the multitude of repeat lines - I haven't eaten duck to the best of my knowledge in years because of this song

And on a disgusting note our blacksmith confided that when his wife horse's died he could no dig a hole big enough so he used a chain saw to cut off the legs and put them in separately. He never told his wife and we don't know if she found out
Watching one of those home buying shows, the couple closed escrow and were told they were allowed to bury two people in their yard! Wouldn't that save lots!
I think it was outside of St. Louis. Eewwww! What if the previous owners already did that? An entire cemetery, right in your own back yard. A very green yard it was.
Your kittys turn it into an interactive garden.
My neighbors have a large collection of lawn ornaments, bright and twirly things, stone bunnies and turtles. Looks very cute. I just have plants.

Guess you have been missed. Did you get stuck in the snow?
CHRIS DE BURGH
"Snow Is Falling"
Snow is falling, snow is falling on the ground,
In the forest, in the forest there's no sound;
A shallow grave is where we lie,
The boys and men who died,
And snow is falling on the ground,
And we are calling to be found;
And the seasons, and the seasons come and go,
In the springtime, birds will sing and flowers grow,
At summer's end, the autumn breeze,
Will whisper through the trees,
And leaves are falling on the ground,
And we are calling to be found;
And in our homes, so many tears,
They don't know where we have gone,
And snow is falling on the ground,
And we are calling to be found,
We are calling to be found......
Snow is falling on my garden
Whirling, dancing lightly down.
Snow is sparkling on the branches
Of the trees tall and brown.
But the flowers are not forgotten
Spring will bring them all to light.
For the frost in dreams has traced them
On my window last night.
Hubby was out of town for a night so my two goldenseal got to sleep in the bed with me, which is truly one of my favorite things
, they are great cuddles and they don't try to steal my blankets! My terrier sleeps with Mom every night.
