HAPPY SATURDAY !
AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DDIL #1
Birthdays are occasion for compliments and praise
And saying many of the things we don't say other days -
For thoughts of love and gratitude are fragile,
cherished things,
As gossamer as fleecy clouds or hummingbirds' small wings,
And often through the passing days we feel deep down inside
Unspoken thoughts of thankfulness and fond, admiring pride -
But words can say so little when the heart is overflowing
And often those we love the most must have
no way of knowing the many things the heart
conceals and never can impart,
For words seem so inadequate
to express what's in the heart -
But since it is your birthday
I thought it would be nice
If I let this first edition verse by
Helen Steiner Rice
In some small way express the things that I would like to say
Not only on your birthday but on every other day.
Birthdays are good for you; the more you have, the longer you live
This morning I take the ‘silver streak’ in for an oil change and to have the coolant replaced …they said mine was dirty last time I was in. DD is meeting me for breakfast while we wait for the car to be done. It’s nice of her to come and get me, sure beats sitting there for an hour or two waiting. Then I’ll be back home working on the house blessing and my painting.
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful way on the Way !
TODAY IS... National Pizza With the Works Except Anchovies Day
The word pizza comes from the Latin word picea which the Romans used to describe the blackening of bread in an oven. The world's first true pizzeria "Antica Pizzeria Port'Alba" opened in 1830, and is still in business today in Naples. An Italian immigrant named Gennaro Lombardi opened the first U.S. pizzeria in 1895 in New York City. Pizza is now consumed all over the world - with or without anchovies
