WTOAST

A day late, sorry. My life has been hectic a bit and I want to give the TTOAST the attention it deserves.

I blogger I read has been exceptionaly kind to a blogger they read who is feeling very low and blue. I find it touching and hopeful (about the state of humanity).
I believe they know each other and I find it a kind gesture to worry about someone you see to even go to that place where you can't be seen (the interweb) to put kind thoughts and encouraging words.

What kind acts have you noticed recently?

Second meme tag, Guilty Pleasures Via Curmudgeon (again) who in turn got tagged by Mary

Meme: Ground Rules: The first player of this "game" starts with the topic "5 Guilty Pleasures" and people who get tagged need to write an entry about their 5 Guilty Pleasures as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 5 people to be tagged and list their names

1. CBS News Sunday Morning

2. The dollar store (any one of them), or BigLots.

3. emolients.

4. spending time with my Squinky and family.

5. Reading every night

I do love a good meme

I tag... Curious hamster, Nettie (should she ever come among the living bloggers again), Catherine, Agnes, My mom, and my aunt ... pick one or both or none at all, but just know I am thinking of you!

Tuesday Toast

I left my wallet at the doctors office. Too many visits I imagine, anyway... they called on my way home, said they would put it in the managers office for safekeeping, but the point is that they called my home and then my cell phone in order to contact me as quickly as possible. My cell was off so I did not get the message but I thought it nice that they went through the extra effort.

What kind gesture have you seen recently?

Everyone is sick, though Squink is getting better faster...
