Love love love love love this post about Pinterest!!

Even though I get on there and click away... actually, not anymore. Most times these days I'm taking stuff off. I wiped out several boards around Christmastime and lost bunches of followers... which is awesome, I HATE it that people can follow me... and couldn't have been happier when they came up with 'secret boards'. I'm MORE than happy to share what I find with people, I'm prolly TOO open about almost (note: almost!) every area of my life... but there are times you just want to keep some things to yourself... like a deeply personal problem or health issue. Anyway, the author expresses exactly how I feel about it... I love Pinterest... and yet, I loathe it, too. I've very much tried to keep my own personal style... and there have been times where I've thought "I'm sure people that see what I pin must wonder what on earth I'm thinking".... Guess what? I don't care. And I haven't. I may have thousands of pins, but I have stuck with my guns on what *I* love.

I can TOTALLY relate...

Love languages

http://www.5lovelanguages.com/profile/ I've always known the love language my children speak.... since they were little. Rob took me a bit longer. I know my parents languages and lately I've been thinking much more about my siblings, Rob's siblings, and my dearest friends. It's taken years to figure out which one I am..... since it's been kind of a tie between three.... but recently, it finally happened. And although it's one I'm not super pleased about, it is me. It's what makes me feel secure and safe and loved. And just because someone doesn't show me love in this certain way (because obviously we all have our own language), it doesn't mean I'm not going to have a connection with them. It just means that in my deeply closest, most personal and intimately emotional relationships, this area is what does it for my heart.... and it's how my heart gives and shows it to others.

New normal

Virus's, masks, hand sanitizer, staying home, conspiracy theories, hoarding, facetiming, toilet paper shortage, the worst of incompetency from the very highest level, gaslighting, so much blind and deafness (though, not literally), smokescreens, bold-face lies accepted without explanation.... the list goes on and on. First and foremost though, this is nothing to be made light of. The meme's were a good laugh in the beginning, but they're stale and old now. People are suffering, people are sick, people are dying. Medical workers all over the world are putting their lives at great risk everyday, working to save and protect so many. Grocery and essential store workers, truck drivers and delivery people are making sure store shelves are stocked so we have what we need. It's hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel. Until there's a vaccine there isn't much "finality" in sight. People. Oh, the people. In so many ways huma...

Playing an old game.....

..... Ally and I. It happened as we were driving down Ustick Rd. the other day and saw a car with a Hawaii license plate.... then 20 seconds later Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Now, if you've never been on Ustick Rd, you might not understand the significance of that. Ally got Alaska yesterday. Guess I better get out more.
