The Daily Matters

Casey has favorite cartoon shows already. He’s showing his interests in books too. I like it when he wants me to read his bedtime story over and over. I think it’s really cute. He still doesn’t say the word for it but when he complains after the story is over I know that he wants to hear it again. He used to love browsing the Tall book which is about a little monkey who wants to become tall.

Reading his favorite book, The Donkey's Christmas Song

That one is all torn apart already so, now he likes The Donkey’s Christmas Song. It’s a story about the baby Jesus being born in the stable where animals wanted to welcome him with their song. It’s a book intended for reading aloud and he simply loves when I read the sounds that the animals make. It’s really nice to see how a child develops his likes and dislikes. You can tell that a personality is being developed. I can’t believe how much I have influenced him, too.

I was blog hopping yesterday and as I have mentioned in my previous post, I was checking out how Entrecard works. I stumbled on this interesting story in one of the blogs and I really like it so I just had to get a copy. I didn’t think about posting it here on my blog but then, I forgot which blog I got it from. I could have put a credit on here linking back to that particular blog post. Well, anyway if you happen to see this and you are the original owner of this story, please let me know. I would appreciate it.

One day I had a date for lunch with old friends. One of these old friends was Marie, a woman about 70 years old. When the menus were presented, some of us ordered salads, some sandwiches and some soups. Marie said, “I will have two scoops of ice cream, please, chocolate.”

Everyone looked at each other and then at Marie. Unfazed by all the attention, she continued with her order. “With that ice cream, bring a slice of apple pie, heated, please.” We all acted nonchalant, as if people did this all the time. We were cool, right? When our lunch was served, all eyes were on Marie’s selection. Being the well-mannered women we are, we did not say anything to Marie about her diet.

A few days later, I called and invited Marie to lunch. After I ordered a salad with dressing on the side, my mouth dropped open when Marie ordered a parfait, with whipped cream. I smiled at Marie and she asked if she amused me. I answered, “Yes, you do, but also you confuse me. Why do you order rich desserts instead of a sensible meal?”

Marie giggled and said,”I try to eat the food my body requires and keep fit by walking. But, life is so short, my friend, that I do not want to miss anything.” She continued, “This year I realized how old I am–I have never been this old before.”

“So, before I die, I am going to try the things that I have wanted to do for years! I want to see the tulips in Holland, swim in the spring-fed pool, read all the classics, see a NASCAR race, attend a rodeo, see all the volcanoes in Hawaii, laugh at all the jokes, shop all the outlet malls and go backstage at a Willie Nelson concert.”

Marie spoke of missed Broadway shows, phone calls not returned, letters not mailed, church services missed and comfort calls not made. She wants to walk in the rain and fall in love again. She hopes to sit in an old country church and thank God for His Grace.

If she chooses to have dessert instead of dinner, then should she die before morning, she would die a winner, to her way of thinking. “I would have filled my heart’s desire by eating that final sweet before my life expired.”

I called the waitress over. “I have changed my mind, I want what she is having only add some fudge sauce, whipped cream and a cherry on top!”

Be good to yourself,
Take more chances,
Laugh more often and
May you die with chocolate on your lips.

Yesterday, I decided to take advantage of Entrecard. I wasn’t really active before since I was too lazy to read all about it. I just thought of joining since it’s what a lot of bloggers are into. When I found out a way to make your EC drop faster, I tried it and it really works.

So, I made my 300 drops yesterday very easily and quickly. I attempted to do it again today but due to time constraint I have to do it again sometime. I tell you, it’s really a good way to boost your traffic if that’s your main purpose like the ordinary blog hop does only better. It’s worth trying. You should join, too!

I just had a Friendly’s pistachio ice cream a while ago. The hubby got it last night. I have not had this flavor a lot before and it’s simply delicious and creamy. We love pistachio nuts and this ice cream is also a must-have. Pistachio is an acquired taste so I don’t think everyone loves it. The other day when we were out shopping, we had ice cream at the Cold Stone which is a really interesting place to have all sort of flavors imaginable for your ice cream.

You can make your own flavor. I had the the strawberry cake lovers’ delight (not sure about the name) and the hubby had the one with coffee flavor. They are DELISH! How about you? What’s your favorite ice cream flavor? Summer is absolutely the perfect season for ice cream indulgences! Make sure to have a scoop!

Hubby asked me about my photoblog this morning. He was wondering why it’s not there anymore when he checked it. Actually, I should be working on our business site which I am sure he is anxious to see. I don’t seem to put my time into it as there are other things that really get my attention. I don’t mean to be that way, but it’s definitely tough to manage when I have a little one. On my free time, I get distracted with other stuff.

Well, I am thinking about starting it today. It’s supposed to be my laundry day but we haven’t done our grocery shopping and we don’t have the detergent so instead of that I will try to make my hubby dear happy by showing him the website later when he gets home. First of all, I think I might have to transfer the domain I bought from another registrar which might take a week or so. I just realized that. Oh well.
