Lovely quotes:
“To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.” ~ Mary Oliver

"Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible." ~ Dalai Lama

“Time is a created thing. To say ‘I don’t have time’ is to say, ‘I don’t want to’.” ~ Lao Tzu

hugs, pumpkin ice cream and that certain scent in the air

August 28th, 2009 by Fond of Snape

Graphic courtesy of Tonya!

And…here we go!

1. He was a a very good man, my Dad.

2. The smell in the air is what I look forward to most this time of year.

3. My best friend is my camera, or maybe my shiba…hmmm...

4. I don’t like to play favorites to be honest with you.

5. Appearances can be only the tip of the iceberg.

6. The last person I gave a hug to was the radiology tech.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to hanging out with Eileen, tomorrow my plans include possibly seeing my cousin and Sunday, I want to hang with Karen and see JMB!

another thing to love about this time of year…pumpkin ice cream!

   Mmmmmm…. the smell of Fall and the taste of pumpkin ice cream!
   Did Jack pour rum on his?

   arrgh! it is so not fall here in l.a. 110° and everything is on fire, so…i guess it kind of smells like fall…but not in a good way.

   enjoy your ice cream!

   I think Shiba is walking around sad that you didn’t pick her first as your best friend

   if I were Wolf, I’m pretty sure I’d pee on your pillow for that one.

   Jack will get fat if he eats all that icecream – can’t have a pudgy pirate

   I have just put down ‘The thing around your neck’ by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie – about to write up review

    Ohh! Pumpkin ice cream – good idea. We bought an ice cream maker this summer so we just might have to try a new flavour.
