No,this is not about the challenges I am facing.During the last two weeks when I have had a few spare minutes I have been challenged by this - money ! or rather spending it NOT. I am grateful for all that I have ... money to spend (well not as much as I like or need but enough) . I can eat buy all the food I want need , access medical care for myself and my children , we are buying our home and we have a comfortable lifestyle (yes though we still work hard).I have received this by email several times and another one similar about putting things in perspective (it is at the end)If we were to break down the population of the world into a small community of 100 people, keeping the same percentages we have today, it would end up something similar to this : 61 Asians12 Europeans08 North Am

She is about 78 years old & makes sure she stops by to say 'Good Morning' to me at the childrens' bus stop every single morning!

I'm thinking about what type of posts would be best on the Wardman Wire on Fridays Since we now have a (fairly) regular posting schedule for the rest of the week, I'm tempted to look for a way of making Fridays less organised, and perhaps give an opportunity for a range of guests to post. The chaos will come out somewhere, so it might as well be somewhere expected... I have come up with some suggestions, but would welcome any comments you might have.

This is the first of many C.O.P.S. Screenshot Fridays I'll be having on this blog every Friday for your enjoyment of rekindling the memories of watching C.O.P.S. when it was on during the late 80s' and early 90s'.

(Central Organization of Police Specialists) and encourage people to sign my online petition to release all episodes of C.O.P.S. on DVD, not just the first 22 episodes Shout! Factory have released almost 2 years ago. With all the classic 80s' cartoons being released on DVD in complete sets, C.O.P.S. must be among them.So to help you rekindle the memories of C.O.P.S. and encourage you to sign the petition, Here's the first of my collection of screenshots taken from the C.O.P.S. episode The Case of The Super Shakedown, where Dr. BadVibes builds an earthquake device he plans to use to destroy the city unless the demands of the Big Boss are m

Finally, today is Friday. Whew. Long week. I guess that’s to be expected, the week after vacation. I want to go curl up in front of the TV with the dogs and my knitting and a blanket and relax. I am going to attempt to go to Thunder Paws Flyball practice on Sunday, with both Chase, the border collie, and Tatum, the collie. Tatum needs the socialization, and Chase needs the exercise. Maybe someone can run Chase for me. I do still need to stay off my ankle. Even though it’s getting better and the pills help so I don’t fell the pain as much. But still, it needs to heal. I want to put together my wardrobes at home… and I shouldn’t, with my ankle. And I want bathroom vanities for the house too, but that’ll all have to wait.
