  12. Perfect quotations to reflect on. Sorry, I live with an 8th grader so I revert to 8th grade humor every now and then.

    Have a great day Sylvia.

  16. Hi Sylvia, Lovely reflections and quotes.. especially the second one.
    I was wondering why your wine glass and bottle are empty and does that make me wise or just plain nosey?

    Have a rip roaring weekend my friend.

    Warm hugs,
    Pam i am ;)

  22. Wonderful reflective shots and quotes, as usual, Sylvia. I hope you and Sam have a great weekend - I could certainly use a restful one and maybe I can finally kick this cold. But somehow I think Socks will drag me for a walk sometime tomorrow (although not on Sunday when we're supposed to get more snow).
