"Life is lived forward, but understood backward. It is not until we are down the road and we stand on the mountain looking back through the valley that we can appreciate the terrain God has allowed us to scale.” Jill Savage

Sunday's Gift to you . . . a song and a video . . .

"Seeing, hearing, feeling, are miracles,
and each part and tag of me is a miracle."

~ Walt Whitman



Thanks Jerry - I am going to call him my cohort in crime!

And I like this one - what do you think?

An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory. - Friedrich Engels

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas - are you? It may snow here today!

Walt Whitman was dead on.

And I love the "ounce of action is worth a ton of theory" quote! I agree wholeheartedly with Sandra's comment.

Hey Sandie!

We sure are hoping for a white Monday! The kids really want to stay home from school tomorrow. We are under a Winter Storm Warning. Anticipating to get around 8 to 10 inches of snow! We bought our annual sand bags today for the back of my truck to keep it from sliding. I think I'm ready for it now!

Have a Great Week!
Angela

loved the song, I was wondering if they were going to have a corgi in it and I wasn't disappointed :) I also liked the ducks walking on the ice, too cute!!

I do agree with Friedrich Engels' quote; kind of like actions speak louder than words; don't just promise, but go out and do (know what I mean?)

How cool you had snowflakes today! We had 85 degrees and sunny!!

Hope it was a nice day!

Hope you get your snow. I'm sitting here watching Holiday Inn, waiting for Bing and the gang to sing White Christmas.

Sandie,,, my thoughts on some of your quotes...


BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF,
it is very hard to do sometimes.
sometimes i beat myself up, sometimes, it is just diffacult.

LEARN TO LOVE YOURSELF,
its a very long journey

TO FORGIVE YOURSELF,
if only things could be erased from memory.
love

HELLO Sandie~Looks like the Christmas spirit is in full swing., I adored that video!
Those lil' critters really sung their hearts out, lol.
We're making slow progress decking the halls at my home. Hubs cut our Christmas "TREEZILLA"!! down from the backyard this weekend. Turns out what grows outside really appears much smaller, lol. With my college boy home it has put us in a festive mood.
Do you like playing Christmas music while decorating? For me the music welcomes a wonderful sentiment of the season to the air, as does the aromas of baking.

It's good to be back, I hope you get a chance to stop by for a visit.

Sweet wishes,
Sara

Sandie,

I love the cartoon of the snowman with his eyes on the night table. Where do you find all these cute things.

Thanks for all the nice comments you've been leaving on my blog!

Thank you so very much for another very honorable mention. This version is way better than the old one, and the old one wasn't bad at all!
