Sure, Send. And no, I didn't report a thing. Not something I do much of.

Alva,
You have mentioned this twice, and I am wondering what I have missed that the admins deleted? I like that they catch something quickly.
Can you PM me?
I should not be so curious.
Did you report the post, or the admins found it?
I will survive if you don't tell me.

Many times when I am up from 3:00 a.m. to 5:30 a.m., I see some amazing stuff, but then it is gone later.

Yes, Kudos to the Admins.

My dH and I worked so hard putting up Christmas lights yesterday, we took Aleve and slept through everything.

The lights look good, and our driveway is no longer so dark.

In the fall, people become obsessed with the colors yellow and orange.
Sherwin Williams has some yellow/orange paint colors, with silly names.
Obstinate Orange
Yellow Ochre
Laughing Orange
Navel
Gusto Gold
Decisive Yellow
Golden Fleece
Mellow Yellow
Outgoing Orange

Fall into Winter, the color of snow.

My current favorite thing?
Karen Savage reading Jane Austen's Persuasion on Librivox (free).
I am enthralled all over again.
Now I want to find the movie version with Ciaran Hinds, again.

We had a beautiful sunny day here. It sort of felt like fall for a change. I met my friend for lunch. We ate outside and it was pleasant. I got my favorite salad.

I have always been captivated by eclipses, whether they are solar or lunar.

Went to a motel once, and that is exactly how I spent most of the day Saturday. Hallmark.

The eclipse was amazingly filtered through the tall trees and projected onto the wall of the house next door, lasting only one + 1/2 hour. The morning light dimmed a bit, but was darker at about two neighboring houses.
The visual was in varying degrees, and was seen as many little crescents of light, on the wall, the street, and a fence. Then, gone, it was full sun after that.

It was obviously meant for only me to see, Lol. But my dH is a witness. 🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙🌙

send it was so rainy and cloudy here today we saw nothing. My friend and I did not go to to the craft fair, rainy and only in the 50s. I hate to admit we watched Hallmark movies in front of a fireplace all morning, and I kept watching them after she left!

The problem with eclipses is you can't actually look at them (well, except for lunar eclipses), plus in today's world of instant gratification they are very s l o w.

Was no one else excited about the annular solar eclipse?

Just me, okay then.

I only know about the Black Eyed Peas (and other music from that generation) because I was involved with raising my nephews and niece, my life would have been much different if I had gotten a typical job.

Lol. I do get a mocha frappacino at Starbucks, Cwillie.

To explain,
The Black Eyed Peas Band who performed
Where is the Love
has red question marks on their video. ❓
I do like the message.

Roberta Flack sang
Where is the Love
1972

A whole different song.


Thinking I might need to explain myself more and more as I age, and leave you younger ones in the rear view mirror. ha ha, lol.

How are we all doing tonight?

LOL Send. I gave it two tries and poured the rest down the drain to keep myself from trying again... so artificial tasting.

I don't usually go for flavoured coffee either but I think the pumpkin spice is a nice treat. Cafe mocha is good too (mmm, chocolate). And a dollop of real maple syrup is wonderful too!

So, you don't love it?

🤔🥴️🥵️🤮🤮🤮

Keep the flavors out of my coffee!
So, I would agree with you, and thanks for the warning, Cwilllie.

I remember last year there were so many pumpkin flavors, pumpkin ads, pumpkin products that I just ignored them all.

I already had a wonderful Costco pumpkin pie-will last me all year.

This is an anti "favourite thing" and a warning to all the other coffee drinkers out there:

I enjoy getting a pumpkin spice latte or two this time of year so when I saw that a pumpkin spice coffee creamer (international delight) was on sale for $5.99 I figured I'd give it a try, after all that's what I paid for my last latte.... 😒🤮🤮

"I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema, yo'
Whatever happened to the values of humanity?
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality?
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive 'til love is found
Now ask yourself
Where is the love?"

Send,

I saw Paul Simon at our jazz festival a few years back. He was awesome! It was interesting to see how many generations appreciated his music.

You know, I never ever played lame music for my children. I always wanted them to appreciate quality music. I didn’t play mediocre children’s music for them to listen to.

The Sound of Silence
Song by Simon & Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"

I am glad that this day continues to be remembered. I was in NYC that fateful day, got off the subway on the Upper East Side to the commotion of emergency vehicles and smoke. I will never forget.
