Weekend Reflections

Weekend Reflections is hosted by James each week beginning Friday at 11 AM Eastern Standard Time. It's another wonderful way of opening your eyes to new and different kinds of beauty. Click on the web address under the blog title and sign up to play with us!

Hard to believe that another week has gone by -- I guess it's true that time does fly when you're having fun!!  I'm still going through the files so hope you enjoy the choices for the day!

Wonderful reflections and great quotes! Have a a great and/or wonderful weekend! :)

Sylvia, I'm glad you don't tire of showing us these magnificent skies, because I'd never tire looking at them. The ducks are adorable and the deep blue water in the marina reflect the masts wonderfully. I've long believed in the power of NOW, so that last quote is right on for me. And what a unique header you have this week (again!)! Keep smiling that gorgeous smile of yours. :-)

Everywhere I go in the blog world Sylvia, you've already been sewing encouragement and good tidings.

You are the Angel of the Internet. They need to name a server after you or something like that.

I am so far behind...am struggling to get caught up tonight. Those ducks cracked me up. They look lie they are on a duckie surfboard. That one brought out the inner child in me tonight. The boats with all of their tall masts in the slips are heavenly. Thanks for brightening my evening. genie

I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
