Potato Chips

So today was one of those wonderful, frustrating, embarrassing days. Things happened that gave me laughter and wonderful memories. Other circumstances gave way to, shall we say things I would rather forget.
Anyhoo! Now that all that negativity is brushed aside I shall share this wonderful quote. Fabulous and true. Spoken by someone I have never heard of but boy I think we are kindred spirits!

  "Reading one book is like eating one potato chip."
                                                   Diane Duane
I have no pictures of potato chips to accompany it or I would have stuck one up there to make all mouths water. Ah well.
The night is late and I have a lovely book calling my name.

    The road goes ever on and on

Looking Back on the Past

So I have never been very good with keeping up a diary or a blog. This one is a prime example. It is easy to go into an endeavor with a smile and a bright picture of what is to come. Keeping it up, however, is another matter entirely. So (I need to stop beginning all my sentences with that word) on that note of despondency I shall attempt again at a blog that hopefully will not ebb off into oblivion.
There are a few things that I hope will keep it going this time.

  1.  I need/want to practice writing. Being a good writer helps life run a little smoother as well as being a worth wile thing to do.
  2. I hope to write book and movie review. There may even be a few vlog reviews mixed in. I shall have to see how long/where this goes to.
  3. I have a new buddy that I am quite proud of. His name is Winston :)


Yes I love him. However, I have never had a "fancy" camera like this before so I am still trying to sort out settings and lighting etc. etc. 
 So I guess number 4 is connected to 3 in that I hope to post multitudinous (fantastic word that I hope I used correctly) photographs.

     The road goes ever on and on
