One Quiet Moment

He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.
-- Epictetus

The Mystique of the Leather Dress

Did you know this about leather dresses???




Do you know that when a woman wears a leather dress, a man’s heart beats quicker, his throat gets dry, he gets weak in the knees, and he thinks irrationally??

Ever wonder why???










It’s because she smells like a NEW Truck!!

One Quiet Moment

"May you have the gladness of Christmas which is hope;
The spirit of Christmas which is peace;
The heart of Christmas which is love."

Our World

Welcome to our worlds, wherever they are!!
There is always beauty and joy to be found in our worlds and that’s what we share every week!!
It’s getting to that BUSY time of year as the Christmas season is getting ready to slip through the doors!! Time for shopping and wrapping our gifts for our loved ones!!  A particularly fun one for me this year since my little grandson who joined us a little over a week ago will be making us all grin and giggle !!!  So, post your pics for the day and lets begin to celebrate with our blog friends!! 
I’ve posted some of the beautiful colors of the Fall season today and I hope you enjoy!!

If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, "thank you," that would suffice. ~Meister Eckhart

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
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.
