    Two days ago I locked the keys in the car miles from nowhere, within seconds I was rescued by a knight in a not so shining pickup truck wielding a hockey stick (yes, he pried the door open with the hockey stick and fished out the keys with a bent coat hanger).

      "The story of the Knight of the Swan, or Swan Knight, is a medieval tale about a mysterious rescuer who comes in a swan-drawn boat to defend a damsel,"  Wiki. Just doing some follow-up.There is something magical about being rescued...

    I'm sitting here reading the posts on this thread, and across the table sits my 87 year old Mom reading a news paper word for word.

      That's a real blessing to both of you. I hope can still read when I'm 87.

        Mom has Alzheimer's disease and cannot remember what she reads, but that doesn't stop her from reading. She loves doing word search puzzles too. smile

    1. Started painting my bedroom again today, now that the weather is cooling. Had a new idea and it looks great.
    2. My nephew emailed to say he's getting married tomorrow! First of that generation on the west coast. We'll party later.
    3. Same nephew suggested a 60th birthday party for my sister (his mom). I suggested my house this weekend.
    4. The cold that got me down last weekend is almost over (yay!)
    5. Last week was told I was a "real fox" by some guy on the bus, and was asked to marry by the bus driver of another bus (who told me my body looks like a 20 year old - I'm 64). Not to take them seriously, but compliments always feel good.

    Blogger has a truly excellent spam filter system. I just discovered no less than 195 spam comments on an old blog of mine I had forgotten about. Not a single one of those spam comments made it to published status. Took me all of 4 clicks and all gone.

    LOL!!! Oh, I loved your positive,happy thoughts. They made me laugh. My happy thoughts are:

    1. Cloves smell good

    2. My cat did not kill me in my sleep, although he threatened it.

    3. My dog loves me even if I accidentally stepped on her tail.

    4. The sky is blue, as opposed to say...green and slimy.

    5. Stew is good!

    These are not near as funny as yours but they are what came to mind right now.

    Well, it showed up this time but I can't remember what I said before. It seems like Monday all day today, even though it is Wednesday.

    I read Tillsontitan's "39th Annual Academy Awards" and it brought back some nostalgic memories. Great hub.

    I'm going to try to do the NaNoWriMo thing this year. I have a story I started a few years back and never worked on.

    I am very happy about summer being over.  However...I would take the heat over the cold any day because I just was not made for cold climate weather.  The rain that we've been getting is nice and cool and refreshing; but, I think I wanna go back to warmer weather now.

    I've joined the Big Choir now and last night was my first rehearsal with them. I did better than I thought I would on the first night. The music is interesting and there are some really nice people in the choir. I'm jazzed (the music is classical).

    It's a Thursday.  Thursday's are the days I get to walk with my dad during our lunch hours.  The air is brisk, the leaves are gorgeous and the company was wonderful.  Happy Thursday everyone. smile

    A banner morning for me. I have finally decided to embark on a new project that I can throw my heart and soul into. It is well-known that finding something outside oneself that consumes one's interest is one key to happiness.

    I've already bought the domain name. I've already picked the website host and began construction. The niche is something I totally enjoy and which has given me true happiness in the past.

    As to its moneymaking potential, that is negligible. But I don't care. It will be fun. And who knows? Maybe it really is true that "If you build it, they will come."

    Happy Daze.
