What ingredients are mothers made of?

1. God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.

What's the difference between moms and dads?

1. Moms work at work and work at home and dads just go to work at work.
2. Moms know how to talk to teachers without scaring them.
3. Dads are taller and stronger, but moms have all the real power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at your friends.

1. Mothers don't do spare time.
2. To hear her tell it, she pays bills all day long.
.

What would it take to make your mom perfect?

1. On the inside she's already perfect. Outside, I think some kind of plastic surgery.
2. Diet. You know, her hair. I'd diet, maybe blue.

If you could change one thing about your mom, what would it be?

1. She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean. I'd get rid of that.
2. I'd make my mom smarter. Then she would know it was my sister who did it not me..
3. I would like for her to get rid of those invisible eyes on the back of her head.

Sunshine Award





I'd like to say thank you and give a shout out to my friend Kerri over at Kerri's Klutter who recently so very sweetly bestowed upon me the Sunshine Award. I was so moved because this award is given "to bloggers whose positivity and creativity inspire others in the blogging world.” What a wonderful sentiment to be known for and I thank Kerri so much.


I have been so lucky and blessed to be given this award in the past, so I'm going to skip passing it on at this time to anyone specific. I would like to pass it on to ALL of you, my wonderful followers, because you have all been so terrific to me during the last few weeks as I have been feeling so lousy. I thank you all for your kind words and encouragement through your emails and tweets... I am grateful to you all. Have a wonderful weekend.


Until next time..... Lorie

Photo Time



My friend Freda over at Day One has started a photography meme.....


Rules for Photo Time:

~ Grab the button above, (save as, unless you wanna offer to make a button?)
~ The idea is to post a photo, anything you want, and link it up. (We may get into themes eventually but I will always give a heads up.)

~ You get 6 days to participate.
~ Have fun, and happy snapping!!

My photo is along the lines as Freda's... this is one of the homes in our community that has always intrigued me. I would love to see inside of it because it reminds me of a castle. The people who own it don't even live there all year round, they only come to town around the fall and winter holidays... Such a waste!



Why don't you play along with Freda and the rest of us... check out the other participants at Freda's blog.
Until next time..... Lorie

Kissing Kittens

I know that I've been a little absent from my blog over the last few days and I'm really sorry. I've been having quite a bit of pain in my neck and back plus suffering from a few really nasty migraines from the physical therapy that I've been getting for my neck post-surgery. I hope to be able to get back to regular posting pretty soon and to visiting all of my wonderful friends' blogs on a much more frequent basis. I hope you are all doing well and that you and your families are enjoying spring.

I have something to make you all smile in the mean-time... One of my photos from the website
The Daily Squee:


Cute Baby Animals - Kitten Kishes!



To all of you who have emailed and tweeted me, thank you for your wonderful comments and kind words.

Another Adorable Animal to Make You Smile

OK, folks, thanks to my most wonderful husband, I've found another website with the most adorable photos of animals - with a catch - these have captions that just sent me into fits of laughter. Here is one that I had to share... The name of the site is I Has a Hotdog - I don't know what it is supposed to mean, but even the name is funny to me. {That could be because it is almost midnight and I am exhausted after a long week, but go with me people.....} Hope you like the photo, and you can click on the link below it to see even more.

Photo Tagged!!




I have been photo tagged by my friend Dolly over at Xmas Dolly for this really cool meme. The rules are as follows:


1) Go to your photo files, select the 8th photo folder.
2) Select the 8th photo in that folder.
3) Post that photo along with the story behind it.
4) Then challenge 8 blogging friends to do the same!



So here is the 8th photo from my 8th folder in my photo file.....




This is a photo of the shuttle Discovery's final night launch on April 5, 2010 taken from the balcony off our bedroom. It is so amazing that we can see the launches from our house - we are really going to miss them. I sure hope that the President does something to continue the space program and save jobs for the people in central Florida and in lots of other areas (shout out to my friend Connie!).


So... now that you've seen my photo, I'm tagging the following 8 women, who I believe are fantastic photographers, to share their photos:



1. Maria from Maria's Space
2. Connie from The Young and Relentless
3. Beth from Manic Mother
4. Michelle from Flying Giggles and Lollipops
5. Karen from 3 Garnets & 2 Sapphires
6. Grace from Sandier Pastures
7. Lisa from Crazy Adventures in Parenting
8. Kailani from An Island Life



Thank you Dolly for thinking of me and asking me to share my photo. Now I ask my readers to visit the above blogs and see their wonderful photographs.



Until next time..... Lorie
