This song, “On the Street Where You Live” is very special to me. I often sing it to myself…well, pretty much anywhere I am. :)

This week’s playlist (a day late – sorry!) is from the soundtrack for the movie musical “Fiddler on the Roof”, a must-see if you haven’t already. Even for those who are not of the Jewish faith, the overarching problems of a break with tradition make for something to chew on for awhile.
Also, in case you didn’t know, the movie is based on a book called Tevye’s Daughters that is available on Amazon.

SO sorry for the lack of posts this week! With (a) being a tad under the weather and (b) my friend coming back into town, things have been quite busy to say the least. Time for a rest.

Ah, that’s better. What is making me smile today?
Teaching a friend how to do the Twist a la Chubby Checker. Don’t knock it.
This gorgeous image of Our Lady of Love (Notre Dame du Bel Amour).
Our recent diplomatic successes with France. It seems our leaders agree on something.
I’ve been told I am hard to fit into categories. I like that.
Lying on the lawn yesterday under a tree on campus whilst I read how Mr. Darcy first proposed to Elizabeth. Oh, Mr. Darcy, you give me such pain.
Payday.
Sweet black gogo boots I bought two weeks ago that came on Monday.
My first attempt at biscotti worked quite well.
Stargate Convention tomorrow. I’m totally psyched to meet Robert Picardo.
I love the fashions of the 1930s.
Have a happy Friday everyone! :)

I wasn’t feeling at all well last night, and after spending the morning at work today I had to come home. An afternoon of sleep in my sisters’ cozy bed, a cup of two of chamomile tea, and a piece of buttered toast have left me, though not completely rested, at least feeling much better.

Okay, I was only away for a little, little bit. I was talking to my friend at lunch about how I was “simplifying my life” and he thought I was being a bit rash giving up one of my favorite hobbies. So I am back, for the time being. :)

Hello all! Things are becoming so busy I’m afraid I’m going to have to stop blogging for awhile. Hopefully it isn’t goodbye forever (because I love it!) but at least until I get my life a little more organized and under control.
Love and prayers to you all!

What is making me smile today?
A lovely day off from work. I love quiet mornings at home.
A great post at Secret Harbor! I promised myself last summer that I would make a half an hour of time in front of the Blessed Sacrament – “Sonbathing” I like to call it – every day. Admittedly, I have not been as good at it as I should be and had to put my “habit” on hiatus last semester, but I am finally recommitting myself. I’ve never, never regretted it.
D is back in town.
Bono wrote a song about the Virgin Mary based on the Magnificat.

The famous prison inmates doing their MJ tribute.
The modern moonwalker and another of my favs, Usher.
MJ once again.
RIP Michael. I was about to buy a concert ticket and ticket to London when you died. I would have loooooved to see you live in concert. I’m praying for you!
