You'll find that implementing small changes can have a significant impact on your life. Remember - little hinges swing on big doors. ~ S.J. Scott Wow, the past two Mondays have been rather crummy at the day job. Today was different. I've done two things differently this Monday. The first is I went to the…Read more Monday is Looking Up

I don’t Like Mondays
Spend life with who makes you happy, not who you have to impress. It's Monday again. I tried to have a good one. I really did, but well often times things just don't go as planned. Here's an 80's tune from Boomtown Rats that might just make you smile. Check out those goofy outfits. Sadly,…Read more I don’t Like Mondays
Murder at the Zoo
"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain." The Wizard of Oz I had a hard time writing this post. I debated about just skipping this movie review, but one aspect of social media that concerns me is people only post "the amazing views selfie" or the "look at how much fun I'm having…Read more Murder at the Zoo
Monday Mania
Monday is the day to set aside fears; the fear of missing out, the fear of regret. Remove from your thoughts anything that suggests 'I could have' or 'I wish I had'. Action is the conqueror of all fears. If you're an 80's child, you remember Manic Monday from the Bangles. That's certainly how the…Read more Monday Mania
The Community Shield
Some people think football [soccer] is a matter of life and death. I don't like that attitude. I can assure them it is much more serious than that. ~ Bill Shankly Today is the first non-friendly match for Liverpool (LFC). It's not the Premier League. That starts on Friday. It's the 2019 FA Community Shield.…Read more The Community Shield
Winter is Coming… Are you Ready?
The more you practice tolerating discomfort, the more confidence you'll gain in your ability to accept new challenges. ~ Amy Morin It's the last Monday of July. I thought it would be great if I took a group photo of my completed MM19 wips for this month. I've made quite a bit of knitting progress…Read more Winter is Coming… Are you Ready?
To Pom Pom or Not to Pom Pom?
What did the hat say to the tie?“You hang around here…I’ll go on a head.” Last week, my knitting dilemma was to add a pom pom to Lettuce Oscar. My original plan was for a pom pom on my slouchy hat. Well, the slouchy hat decided it wanted to be a beanie so it's going…Read more To Pom Pom or Not to Pom Pom?
Alternative Realities
"They call me Mister Tibbs!" ~ In the Heat of the Night Saturday was the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. You can check out more info on NASA's website. The British Hubby and I thought we would honor the moon landing with a space movie. It seemed fitting since many people believe the moon…Read more Alternative Realities
Friday Night Double Feature
"They may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!" Braveheart For 3/4 of the past year, the British Hubby and I had been working our way through every Godzilla movie created in preparation of the newest movie that was released in May. As you can expect, Godzilla leaves a bit of a gaping…Read more Friday Night Double Feature
Let’s Hear it for Hats
How a hat makes you feel is what a hat is all about. ~ Philip Treacy Hats aren't for everyone. I'll admit I didn't wear hats that often until I started knitting. Now, I love a good hat even ones that aren't knitted. I especially love knitting hats and wearing my knitted hats. That's good…Read more Let’s Hear it for Hats
