Thankful Thursday!!

When the day is done and the stars are out, all that matters is that I lived each moment to the fullest.  Grateful to be able to do it all again tomorrow.  - Uncredited Facebook photo.


Is it just me or is time flying right by?  I feel like every time I turn around it's Thursday. Nevertheless, I am thankful.

This week I found myself recognizing or re-recognizing my gratitude for...

The Remastered Beatles Anthology - You know the one that iTunes came out with two years agoish.  The songs sound totally different and there are still things - technically almost twenty years after I heard the songs  for the first time - that I am hearing for the first time in these versions of the songs. Whether it's the grain of the voice or a laughter in the background or even the clarification of a word I thought was a different word the whole time, it is a learning experience.  And you know what the bottom line is?  That this remastered collection just sounds good. I'm happy it happened.

Paul McCartney's Week that Was -  So last week (or possibly the week before but internet is butt and I  just read all of this) Macca had quite the week!  I am pretty grateful for all of it. To start he let Yoko off the hook. THANK THE UNIVERSE FOR THAT ALREADY! For those of you who live under a rock and do not know what I am speaking of, the hook that Yoko was hanging from was the story of Yoko breaking up the Beatles. Although I don't like her - that much-  it is ridiculous to me that people really thought she broke up the Beatles. I will not get into the nonsense on this page, but maybe I will do it over at Chasing Dreams. Then, apparently, his helicopter almost crashed?! The pilot had a difficult time controlling the helicopter in bad weather but gained control just in time. Obviously I am happy about this.  I don't look forward to that inevitable news coming along anytime soon. Here is the link for that one!  Macca Helicopter

Made Beds -  Maybe I am getting old, maybe I am just catching up to the real world but I absolutely love getting into a bed that is made. This is something new for me because I never cared for because I was only going mess it anyway.  Although Dann couldn't care any less about a made bed he does make the bed for me every night.  Good husband skills right there :)

That My Program is Over - For a while there, I loathed Liverpool.  I missed the Beatles in a way that I didn't even understand and I couldn't wait to get home.  I liked to listen to the Beatles  more while I was in Scranton than I did in Liverpool.  But now that the program is over I am much happier. I actually got a smidge sad when I realized that I wouldn't always be able to go to the Cavern Club to enjoy my Sunday.  Being in the program definitely took me away from the fun part of being in Liverpool.  It was harder than I thought it would be but I picked up some knowledge along the way and knowledge is power!

Marvel Avengers -  Yeah, I've always loved boy type toys like Batman and Ghostbusters.  How I never got involved with the Marvel side of things I don't know.  Wait!  I can actually blame that on Spiderman because I hate Spiderman and his stupid spiderlike things. However the Birthday Fairy brought Dann the Marvel Avengers Box Set and I am reaping the benefits of that.  Iron Man makes my day and Thor makes my life. If you didn't watch them, you need to. If you refuse to, you're silly.


Also, I am thinking about doing another blog about wedding planning from a wheelchair point of view. I am hoping that from my posts I will get suggestions for alternative methods and approaches to traditional wedding festivities.   What do you think?



AND WHAT THE FORK ARE YOU THANKFUL FOR THIS WEEK?

  1. Like I have said before I think the wedding blog is a great idea! It would be a great place to, if nothing else, gather your thoughts and categorize everything for the wedding.
