These are a few of my favorite things!
"When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad." (Sound of Music)

Maria's favorite things were raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens
bright colored copper, apple stroudel
Cream colored ponies and much more.  I won't name them all
cause there not my favorite things.

The Zebra is one of my favorite things, his stripes are so cool. He seems so 
intelligent.  He is just so beautiful.  I can stare at him for hours and wonder what happened to 
Zebra.  Wouldn't it been cool if we could have Zebra races.  My favorite thing!
My favorite thing.

In that song sung by Maria, there is a line that is so true in my life.
 "When I'm feeling sad, I simply remember my favorite
things.  And then I don't feel so bad"

Sunsets Always!


Okay, I confess, I'm very proud of this picture.  The colors are so vivid.  I feel like this sometimes.  I feel like this picture sometimes.  It's kind of the story of my life.  You see I have seen many sunsets!  But not a lot of sunrises.  The reason for this is because truthfully, Im usually not up for sunrises.   The truth is why would anybody want to be up that early.   Oh Maybe someday!  
Morning time is not my favorite time of the day anyway, but I sometimes wonder what I'm missing.  And I guess this is my point.  The story of my life is that I don't want to miss anything.  So I Journal, I read, I travel, I make many friendships.  I've sung and done music.  I've sang and played at weddings and funerals. I've done many sports and there is so many more to do.  So what am I missing, I'm missing plenty of sunrises, more walks in the park, traveling more in Europe.  A trip to the Greek Isles, maybe a cruise there.  Who knows what I will do next.  
Oh Maybe someday those sunrises that are eluding me will appear and I will sigh, my someday is here!  IT'S HERE
