THURSDAY WHATEVERMy dreams are of gardeners.
They frighten the beaters of flowers with their gentle faces.
They answer what the old heart asks.
I close with effort the illusion of my nights.
Deep Thought:
“When this girl at the museum asked me whom I liked better, Monet or
Manet, I said, “I like mayonnaise.” She just stared at me, so I said it
again, louder. Then she left. I guess she went to try to find some
mayonnaise for me.”
Today I am grateful for: My heart
Guess the Movie: “I
happen to know everything there is to know about maple syrup! I love
maple syrup. I love maple syrup on pancakes. I love it on pizza. And I
take maple syrup and put a little bit in my hair when I’ve had a rough
week. What do you think holds it up, slick?” Answer: The Wedding Crashers, 2005.
Winner: Happy Heathen

With a little help from my friends and the book I bought long ago I am learning to make backgrounds and headers in paintshop pro9 I think there is a newer version out but I don’t even know how to use all of this one yet. I had a really good day mowed my lawn, went to the used store, napped, wrote, just a good day, Judi
Maple syrup on Pizza now that is something I didn’t know about you lol, Judi
Yes, there in lies the problem. What is attachment and what is a goal? There is some more I want to say in reply, but I need to think it over so it is worded thoughtfully.
Light…I take it you don’t get much of that in Portland?
Stopping by
to say hi!
They frighten the beaters of flowers with their gentle faces.
I love that sentence.
Gardening and maple syrup. Hmmm… well I was going to guess Clint Eastwood… I would have been wrong. I don’t think I have ever seen The Wedding Crashers. Have a lovely weekend. I should be in the garden, but I am not. Shame on me, maybe tomorrow.
I like that deep thought. lol
Maple syrup in hair? It’s better than, erm, sperm I spose.
