A good night's sleep, chocolate, the happiness and satisfaction of sharing on AgingCare forum. Does anyone have some favorite things to think about? Yes, this phrase is from the song in the movie "The sound of Music". My husband and I often resort to using movie lines and song to improve communication. We were the only two in a gathering of people who heard the background music playing. We both had the same (cassette tape/CD). A connection bringing two people together. To this day, we crack up when one uses a simple movie line to make a serious point.
SO, What is one of your favorite movie line, some of your favorite things?
Thanks. I do. It was fun to play cards with my family. Anytime I went on vacation I would bring back a fun deck of cards for them. That and coffee mugs because mom always had coffee made for us.
I love your list! All my favorites too!
Well, my parents are deceased but I did play cards with my mom and dad.
Don’t have a convertible but I like them!
Sunrises and Sunsets
Riding in my convertible on summer evenings
Card games with my father
The sound of my children's laughter
A good dinner and wine shared with friends
The wonder of teeny tiny fingers on a newborn
Having a clean house
Interesting and engaging conversation
Beautiful music
Tenth favorite:
Knowing the truth when someone else has guessed wrong. It can keep misinformation from spreading.
You have mentioned this twice, and I am wondering what I have missed that the admins deleted? I like that they catch something quickly.
Can you PM me?
I should not be so curious.
Did you report the post, or the admins found it?
I will survive if you don't tell me.
Many times when I am up from 3:00 a.m. to 5:30 a.m., I see some amazing stuff, but then it is gone later.
Yes, Kudos to the Admins.
My dH and I worked so hard putting up Christmas lights yesterday, we took Aleve and slept through everything.
The lights look good, and our driveway is no longer so dark.

Karen Savage reading Jane Austen's Persuasion on Librivox (free).
I am enthralled all over again.
Now I want to find the movie version with Ciaran Hinds, again.
The reflected crescents filtered onto the wall.
I have always been captivated by eclipses, whether they are solar or lunar.
The eclipse was amazingly filtered through the tall trees and projected onto the wall of the house next door, lasting only one + 1/2 hour. The morning light dimmed a bit, but was darker at about two neighboring houses.
The visual was in varying degrees, and was seen as many little crescents of light, on the wall, the street, and a fence. Then, gone, it was full sun after that.
It was obviously meant for only me to see, Lol. But my dH is a witness. 🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙
Just me, okay then.
To explain,
The Black Eyed Peas Band who performed
Where is the Love
has red question marks on their video. ❓
I do like the message.
Roberta Flack sang
Where is the Love
1972
A whole different song.
Thinking I might need to explain myself more and more as I age, and leave you younger ones in the rear view mirror. ha ha, lol.
How are we all doing tonight?
I don't usually go for flavoured coffee either but I think the pumpkin spice is a nice treat. Cafe mocha is good too (mmm, chocolate). And a dollop of real maple syrup is wonderful too!
🤔🥴️🥵️🤮🤮🤮
Keep the flavors out of my coffee!
So, I would agree with you, and thanks for the warning, Cwilllie.
I remember last year there were so many pumpkin flavors, pumpkin ads, pumpkin products that I just ignored them all.
I already had a wonderful Costco pumpkin pie-will last me all year.
I enjoy getting a pumpkin spice latte or two this time of year so when I saw that a pumpkin spice coffee creamer (international delight) was on sale for $5.99 I figured I'd give it a try, after all that's what I paid for my last latte.... 😒🤮🤮

As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema, yo'
Whatever happened to the values of humanity?
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality?
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive 'til love is found
Now ask yourself
Where is the love?"
