You never know what floats their boat
It might not be so typical
Greet with a warm smile anyway,
It may just be reciprocal!

You can raise or lower your expectations
As you think about your invitations
To all the holiday events and fun
You can choose to celebrate
A new year or mourn the old one
But every year includes some redemption
Be mindful of each of those exceptions.


Well good morning and who woke up at four and is just now having coffee at five? Me🙄 It’s a balmy 9F degrees and snowing. It’s still pitch black but the snow lit up my room last night. The fam is in Rock Springs at a basketball tournament – it’s 12F degrees there but not snowing yet. I hope the roads are clear and they don’t get stuck like last weekend with 100+ mph winds and roads closed.
My granddaughter is a freshman but gets to play because she is one of those “naturals” in athletics. People always say she’s a natural but it’s dedication, hard work and practice. She has either been watching or playing since three years old, and loves it.
This is stream of consciousness so there you have my stream this cold early Saturday. Opposites—well let me think…the opposite of having cold feet is these thick warm slipper socks😂 and a good amount of practice, practice, practice.

I very much enjoyed this one and it’s sequel. It’s “Red” starring many familiar favorite actors.

Joey always chose to believe; he believed in many things—Santa Claus dressed in crimson with sparkling eyes, the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, and fairytales. He hoped the magical bunny would bring a solid chocolate egg, but was not disappointed to find it hollow. He consistently woke to find a shiny new coin under his pillow after losing a tooth. Every year he hung his patiently decorated stocking near the fireplace and added a new small decoration to the Christmas tree to recognize a new year coming.
Ever looking on the bright side—his mind was a suitcase of wonderment. After his mother kissed him goodnight, his nocturnal choice was observing starry constellations and remembering stories he had been told of their creation.
Joey was an optimist, never professing dismay if what he envisioned did not come true. He was always hopeful some day it might.
