Day to Day happenings in my life

In response to "Regret "

We never know what might have happened, had we taken an alternate course or chosen a different option. So the answers to "what if" questions can go either way. I'm quite sure you did the best with the information you had at the time when you decided on something, one way or another. Like the rest of us.

Wow, Lyn, 50 times? You’re a true Wizard fan!
Interesting fact about the origin of OZ, I didn’t know that.

In response to "Wizard "

I've seen Wizard of OZ more than 50 times; I've read the book and gone to the theatre to see Wicked. I could relate to the Lion, the Tin Man and the Scarecrow more than Judy being a child with confidence and elf-esteem issues. Did you know book title "Land of Oz" name reportedly came from L. Frank Baum glancing at a filing cabinet labeled O-Z? Inspiration can come from anywhere.

Good entry.
I don't like much confrontation, either. I don't lose my temper easily, but I don't put myself in situations where I can lose my temper, also.

In response to "Stress"

Sue,
I had the same difficulty after falling and also getting a concussion. Our brain was rattled and it's something that is new to our brain so it doesn't quite know what to do yet. I know it's scary but things will improve, just sadly it's like learning to walk again...baby steps. I think the class will be quite helpful because your brain is stressing and fear is holding it back. Oddly enough, my neurologist suggested a ballroom dance class where I had to trust another when I was led and dipped with my eyes closed, just feel the music, trust it and my partner. It did help me.

In response to "Wishing on a Star"

Bing Crosby I agree wasn't handsome but he did have a very nice voice. I love White Christmas, he co-starred with Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen. I watch White Christmas every year, the day after Thanksgiving while I'm writing Christmas cards. The first time I saw it was with my grandparents, it was a few years after it originally came out. I know I've seen it every year since I turned 18, it never grows old to me.

In response to "Wishing on a Star"

You were born a year later than I was. And yes, I found out that the song of the year of best book of the year ideas were not invented in those war days. I used to like Bing Crosby and my late husband had his LPs. I just don't recall the titles of his songs.

In response to "Harvest Festival "

Oh my goodness, I'm glad you're recovering. That's quite a scare you had, Sue.

I hate when people talk to me like I'm a fragile old lady too.. I probably do more in one day than a lot of those youngsters and I'm sure you probably do as well.

Here's to August being everything you need it to be.

In response to "Use of words"

Sounds way to familiar, I've seen it happen in Norfolk, Va., Jacksonville, FL. and San Diego, Ca when I've gone to meet my son's ship.

My son was in the Navy, he used to joke about the girls swarming them when they came into port.

Good use of the words, Sue.
