There's tutoring for all ages at the library. There's computer classes. There's story time for the younger ones.
I love the monthly puppet shows; they teach children how to use the marionettes and then they do a monthly performance.
I loved Vincent Price, just rented the Pit and the Pendulum to watch again. I heard it read at a Poe event, I came home and read it again myself then watched. It brought back some cool memories of watching Vincent Price with my friends.
I remember The Birds so well, which is a miracle, considering my memory of late. But that movie didn't scare me. Maybe. Vincent Price did more. It might have been the tone of his voice and his special kind of articulation.
Hi, Jane, another Aussie! There aren’t many, I’m afraid. Welcome to WdC I hope you enjoy the ride. I have two adult family members in Queensland. My daughter lives in Cairns and my son in Bloomfield, very remote. We’re in Perth, WA
I hope to read some of your portfolio when I have a chance. Please feel free to pop in and check out mine.
Cheers Sue
Is success a result of luck, or hard work? Neither? Both?
Oh my, that’s something to ponder on. I’ve often heard the saying: “the harder I work the luckier I become,” and thought it true.
Working hard though is not a certainty of success. My father worked hard from being 14 years old and never had much money. I can’t remember him having time off for sickness or for long holidays. Of course he worked in a family business and it’s been an observation of mine that such people are more conscientious, that, or they have no choice.
Some people can’t deal with luck, they might win the lottery but don’t seem happy until they’ve spent it all and are back to the status quo.
I think many successful people would have been so, no matter what. They have a drive and a feeling of entitlement others don’t.
