Good Night, Nurse!

It is funny how a saying takes on it’s own meaning for each individual. This was from a 1918 comedy staring Buster Keaton, in a sanitarium.

My dad said it every time he was frustrated with something. Life can be frustrating, good, fun, exciting, unpredictable, and all of the above at once. Isn’t it great! Spring is almost sprung, and we get up everyday with something new. A positive attitude keeps us ready to get, set, and go! Like Shrek, Forrest Gump , or even someone you know.

People say that, “I live in my own little world.” Yup! It is a good place to be most of the time, join me anytime. Let’s all go to Disneyland (California of course).

“Do, or do not. There is no ‘try.’” — Jedi Master Yoda
I try to accomplished things and it takes effort, and effort is always good. The difference is that you tell yourself that you “can do it”, absolutely can. The internet is the most awesome tutor, you can learn anything you want.

My favorite and best tutor so far is, youtube. Your can learn to crochet, cook , and garden. Now is the time to get going enjoy the weather and plant those wonderful mouthwatering tomatoes.

  • Our area of the Midwest feels like Spring this week, but winter is still in the air. My twin sister asked me what the Farmer’s Almanac says, but I still need to subscribe.
  • Almost time for my barn swallows to tell me when Spring is officially here, they appeared in April last year.
  • Get ready for the annual City-Wide Garage Sale on Saturday April 2. And there is an open garage door sale this Saturday (3-19) from 9-4 at 1702 Rosewood. Have a great Weekend!
