A Little Goes a Long Way..

What do you do when you have so many things you want to do, but there isn’t enough sunlight in one day to do them all? I no longer stress what I can and cannot do.  

I put what is important first and go from there. I knew I was going to finish my beige blanket and I did. I may have wanted to pick up some more yarn, because the idea of a new project always makes me smile.

I stayed focused and did the next thing on my list. That is all you can do. One thing at a time and you might be surprised that you actually finish everything you set out to do and if you can’t do it today? There is always another day to shine.

I am going to make sure I write (or type) something every day. I may not finish my thought, but at least I will get started. If I can sit for a few minutes, I can crochet a stitch or two. I know every stitch counts and every word type does the same


Time to move on to the next thing on my list.

Ending this List…

Today is another day

Another day to set your dreams free.

I am finally keeping my word.

I have stopped looking at the big picture and 

I am taking one step at a time.

I have crossed one step off of my already long list.

It is all I can do

Is take one step at a time

And one day 

I will cross off everything on my list

And Happily start another OnE

A Mis Thought…

RESEARCH is NO FUN

WORDS:
GOOD and BAD

INTRODUCTION: Questions.

I had so many ideas on what I wanted to write, but between my tummy and the thought of crocheting while it’s still light outside. I realized I don’t have the energy to write out my thoughts.

I am still going over the answers I had about a virtual mailbox. I checked a few on BBB.org and didn’t get enough answers to get close to ending my curiosity.

I believe I am going to stop here, because I have no idea how I got five different pictures across my screen. I am just grateful they went away so I can come to an end to this unusual short post.

Then again, I believe I better get something to eat, because one cannot do anything if one’s tummy is yelling.

A Passing Friend….

Have you ever wanted to give a person a second chance and when you did, you realized why you didn’t want to be around this person?  Well, I did just that, and within a few minutes I knew I was right to keep my word.

People are people and some are just meant to be passing friends. Passing friends? One might wonder what this is, but it is as simple as it sounds.

A passing friend is someone whom you know and happen to come across out and about. Example: you are in a store, and you notice a person you know, so you say, “hello” small talk and be on your way.

A passing friend is someone whom you only talk a short while with nothing too personal, just enough to acknowledge them before you go one about your business.

If it looks like they want to talk longer, apologize and let them know you have somewhere else you have to go.  This way you won’t have to accept an invitation when you don’t want to go or lie to get out of an invitation in order not to hurt that person’s feelings.

I wanted to believe this person wasn’t all bad, but I was wrong. Well, let me correct myself. They are good people, but there are some people who just aren’t a match with your personality. I don’t like to judge or to be judgemental. 

Your will cannot overpower the person you’re talking to or talking at? That last part “talking at,” because if you are talking at me then you are not talking to me.

Oh well, I can honestly say I gave this person a second chance to not be, “A Passing Friend.” Everyone needs a second chance, and it was done.

Bye IV Now, LD*

Short & Sweet Christmas #3: Musical..

I clicked on Jingle Jangle, because of the colorful outfits. This movie was uplifting and a touch of jealousy. It is a little sad, when the person you trust takes that trust, and turns it against you. In the end that person not only regrets what they have done, but realized you were on their side all along.

It has been said, “slow to talk and quick to listen.” Then again I guess it wouldn’t have been a good story if that actually happened. I liked the fact that it took a young person with an open heart to return a forgotten dream.

This is a good movie and I may watch it again

Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey/Everything is Possible/Official trailer Netflix 

Netflix  Oct 4, 2020 

A musical adventure and a visual spectacle for the ages, Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey is a wholly fresh and spirited family holiday event. Set in the gloriously vibrant town of Cobbleton, the film follows legendary toymaker Jeronicus Jangle (Academy Award winner Forest Whitaker) whose fanciful inventions burst with whimsy and wonder. But when his trusted apprentice (Emmy winner Keegan-Michael Key) steals his most prized creation, it’s up to his equally bright and inventive granddaughter (newcomer Madalen Mills) — and a long-forgotten invention — to heal old wounds and reawaken the magic within. From the imagination of writer-director David E. Talbert, Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey reminds us of the strength of family and the power of possibility.  Featuring original songs by John Legend, Philip Lawrence, Davy Nathan, and “This Day” performed by Usher and Kiana LedĂ©.
