everything we see has the potential to teach us something.

Dawn: I came here from Linda Sue's blog. She is amazing and hilarious. Now I am enjoying your posts. They are amazing and funny too. And thought provoking. Sometimes we learn things we don't want to know. Love the photo.

I really like that quote. I try to think along those lines everyday.

Thanks for the note. So good to hear from you. I really loved 500 days of Summer. Julie & Julia was one of those movies that made me want to cook at least for a few days. They did a great job. I saw Taking Woodstock. It was pretty offbeat. You shouldn't go if you wanted Woodstock music. I was pretty much impressed with Demetri Martin who was in the title role. I liked him. I don't know why haven't noticed him before. It would have been better if it could have been more fiction I felt, but since it was supposedly based on the real deal and all..it just sort of meandered. I can't say it was the perfect film, but I'm glad I went anyway.

Thanks for the comment. Actually, I had put off Nancy having the baby all summer since I had this idea long before. My Mom had a friend who went through a similar experience years ago when I was little, and I can remember her just sitting there in a chair at her mother's house while her mother took care of the baby. Now, there is much more done to stroke victims when something like this happens. A friend of mine recently had a stroke, only it wasn't baby related. Her diction is better now than ever before. But she was really out of it for a few weeks.

Of course, while writing this, I kept thinking Dayton would never want to have anything to do with the baby and then suddenly..things change.

Its cooled off here quite a bit too. But its been sort of nice. Now I hope we don't suddenly all get sick when it gets so hot again.

Thanks again for reading.

I learned so much today from what i saw- husband cleaning out the garage! What? How can my eyes be seeing this- I learned that he bought himself a new car and needs to keep it ...in the garage! I learned that motivation is a 54 thousand dollar automobile...

I agree! I also like that quote, thanks for sharing. That's why we need to take everything on us as a lesson in life and what was life is. =D
