Right now, I couldn't agree with you more, Hermione! I love what C.S. Lewis said about his faith: I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen, not only because I see it, but because by it, I see everything else."

Right now, I think I need to add to my already lengthy reading list because the majority of the books mentioned I've either never read or heard of. (and I'm an avid reader)

Right now, just back from eye doctor and I need bifocals too. I will be wearing the progressive kind with no lines and it will take some getting used to. Ah, the joys of getting older!

Did you guys know that C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien were friends? Cool, huh? Right now I am getting ready to go to my sister's to bake cookies. I thought I would bake them with my niece and nephew. Growing up, I always loved being around my mom when she baked.

Right now, I am so very sorry, Tabby. Very sad and very hard. (I have offered prayers.) Right now I still not on overload with news about Christopher Reeve's life and death. I am watching a clip on Entertainment Tonight about him--filmed the previous summer showing Reeve's littlest boy crawling all over him, seemingly oblivious of everything (wheelchair, breathing thingee positioned near Reeve's mouth) because this was simply his daddy. So sweet and so sad.

right now, herckleperckle, it does help me to know that christopher reeve has some very good company in my dear friend kathy up there! it really does make me feel better (even though i am sad that both of them died, of course) to know they were two like angels and touched a lot of people in their 'here' lives. i just wish it didn't hurt those of us left behind so much, but i know we hurt because we cared so much about these people and knew they cared in return. reeve was as much an inspiration paralyzed as he was on screen. a super man indeed.

Right now, I'm sending hugs to Tabby and DD. Right now, I'm also working on my update. Just wondering if anyone has any more wonderful kid pics or if their animals aren't doing something camera worthy right now. Right now, I'm also wondering if there are any pics floating around from ........oh, I don't know........ maybe a wedding or something?

Right now I am wearing my new red hat. I have never had a hat like this before and I love it! Not only because it's red...I really like red...and hubby says that there was a choice of colors. He could have chosen baby blue (Wrong choice...I am not a person who likes to wear pastels)...or black (DEFINITELY not black...I hate to wear black, I will wear navy blue any day of the weak, but never black)...nope. Red was the perfect choice. I love to wear to wear red! Red says "I'm alive and I'm not afraid!" (even if I am). My new hat is called a "pillbox hat" hubby says...but it's not like any pillbox hat I've seen before. I don't think Jackie Kennedy ever wore a pillbox hat that looked like this! But he says that's what it was...so I have to believe him...I mean why would hubby lie about a thing like that! My new red pillbox hat is made out of felt...and it is soooo soft and so warm. It keeps my ears warm...and it is so lightweight that I forget I am even wearing a hat. And it has this stitching that looks like old fashioned hand stitching around the edges. So it looks old fashioned and Scandanavian and I like that. And then it has this tassel that hangs from the top and off to the side...at least that's where I put it...because in the back it would look like a donkey's tail and in the front it would just look silly...so I wear it on the side...and it looks...well..fun! Now my hat only has one major flaw and that someone decided to embelish it. Now I don't know why someone would go and destroy a perfectly good classic masterpiece that way...but someone decided to go "cute" (I hate cute) and stitched a white patch with a snowflake on it ...right in the front. If I could take away the snowflake...I would...but since I can't...I won't. Maybe it serves a purpose reminding me that nothing is perfect...that everything has flaws and you have to love things even if they aren't perfect and have flaws. Or maybe it's trying to teach me that snow isn't as bad as I try to make it out to be. Okay...I'll accept the snowflake. So here I am in my new red "pillbox hat" with the tassel hanging on the side and the snowflake patch in front...smiling...because my hubby bought me a $4.00 hat that suits me so well. It keeps me warm, is soft and fuzzy, makes me giggle, and above all else makes me feel loved. I sure do love my new hat.

Right now Mary had me thinking the hat might be a Shriner hat with the tassel, so I'm glad it has a snowflake!

Right now I'm sorry Mamie had to sit in the rain and watch her team lose. But I can't be to upset they lost because I'm a Raider Hater, have been one since I can remember, and will be one till I die!!!!

right now I want to track down my girlfriend's ex-fiance & physically explain to him that waiting until after you propose to say "I've been unhappy for a long time - I'm leaving" is just bad form...
