That which we spend our lives hoping for is often no more than a chance to do what we should have done to begin with..

If the errors of my life have profited me one great Truth, it is This: Believe in your destiny and the star from which it shines. Believe if your life depends on it...for indeed, it does.

Some Lovely Deer Visiting on the Lawn


There have been times that I have been tempted to protect my heart from further disappointment with cynicism. But it would be like poisoning oneself to avoid being murdered.

I Miss Mayberry

For the last three years, we have not had TV..we weren't able to get cable here.. so therefore had No TV at all.. Anyone remember the old days when you could get three channels if you had some rabbit ear antennas? Well.. Not No more. So we finally caved & got a satellite dish. So we now have this huge honkin thing on the porch that looks like a flying saucer..(regular cable is still not available)But we now have what they call basic tv channels..

So....Here is My Assessment of what I've been watching..
And I really don't mean to offend anyone..This is Just My opinion..Okay?
Okay:
Dr Oz is weird. How'd he get a TV show? Dr Phil is a tool and a bit of a blowhard. Ellen dances a bit too much.Rachael Ray needs to be quiet. Barbara Walters is senile. America's Got Talent... Apparently..No It Does Not.
Dancing with the Washed up Stars... Is it me or is this show about five hours long? And.. Evey single character on Days of Our Lives has amnesia.Or thinks they do..
And Where's Oprah?
However My favorite show is "Chopped" It's on the Food Network.. You can win ten thousand dollars if you are able to make a tasty desert using seaweed, beets, pine nuts, kiwi and beer..Love it.

Beauty Secrets


Here's me when I was a little younger.
Okay Much younger.
I never thought I was pretty then. But now I wonder what was I complaining about.. I wish I still looked that good!

Here's some of my beauty secrets:
Palmers Cocoa Butter. Put it all over your face every night.
Loreal Foundation.. I use the one called Visible Lift..it's the best.Not that I need any lifting...Ahem
Ponds cold cream: I use to remove makeup.Rinse with cold water after.No Soap!
When your mascara dries out, don't toss it...put a small drop of warm water in the tube.Stir it around with the wand..it'll be like new.I like Maybelline.The one in the green & pink tube.
