I go back and forth with the full post and summary thing – I’ve done it both ways a few times. Right now I seem to get more with the full post and people pop over to read some from the archives, but I liked it with the summary too. WordPress changes things so much I’m not sure there’s a lot of consistency anyway.

Second, Teagan rules! Love ‘Atonement, Tennessee’ so much, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve read it, actually, I had to put it away when I was starting to write my book because I love it so much I was worried I might unconsciously copy it. And I never get bored of visiting Teagan’s blog, how could I, it’s magical!!
Third, I can’t stay here much longer, after reading the drool-worthy scone recipe on another post here on A Pug In the Kitchen, I have to get baking. 🙂

Very sad and then I just found out Grizzly Adams died, wait, I’m not sure I know his real name, Dan Haggerty? Anyway, I loved that show and had a huge crush on Grizzly Adams and an even bigger crush on his bear, Ben, I think he was called Bozo in real life which seemed a rather undignified name for a majestic bear, but I digress…
If the last month’s cancer toll doesn’t convince people a) despite an conspiracy theories we clearly don’t have a secret cure for cancer, and b) they need to find a cure for cancer and not keep it a secret.

I heard a radio ad, while driving home yesterday, for discounted cremations. ‘Don’t go here and pay upwards of £2,000, don’t go there and pay about the same. Come to us and let us burn you for the bargain price of just over £1,000.’ I nearly crashed the car. I paraphrase ever so slightly but what an ad! It seemed kind of crass.

I have heard it said that Mother Teresa died of a broken heart. I believe my sister almost died of a broken heart after my mother’s untimely death. But she got heart surgery & is feeling much better.
As Ms. Parker says broken hearts can kill you, so what do you prefer? Carry on, with the lessons you learned from those we loved & admired, as a part of who we are now? Or die too, likely forgotten because we haven’t finished what we came for?
I choose the former.
Although my debut novel is out, I have much more to do. And David Bowie taught me more than I’ll ever know about being myself & embracing that person despite mistakes & losses & broken hearts.

Reblogged this on Teachezwell Blog and commented:
Love this post. We do mourn, but there’s still time to help the living! D. Parker and I both lived with dinosaurs when we were young (she brought it up, not me). I thought she’d been eaten, but apparently not. Good to know. You’ll love her site, by the way!

Thank you so much for the reblog and the kind words and yes, it could be scary standing in line with dinosaurs or dancing or whatever because, you know, there’s always that one, the carnivore who sees you as meal instead of a friend. 😉
Hope this week treats you well. 🙂

I think this is supposed to be a bit sad, and I feel a little bad for having some giggles. I love that you mentioned the kobayashi maru. And we could probably talk about it at length if we ever met. That tickles me to no end.
But sad. Yes. Very sad.

It has always been my philosophy that laughter can do wonders, life is meant for the living. 😉
Yes, as a decades (I won’t say how many…) long Trekker this stuff just slides in… 🙂

Yes, we all lose people we love and care about whether they are family, friends, or people we admire. But, as long as we never forget them, are they really gone? Technically, yes, but they are always with us. 🙂

My grandma used to say those who touch our hearts stay in them forever…I think she was right and those memories help heal our hearts. 🙂
Thank you, Judy and hope this day is treating you well. 🙂

That’s enough, but thank goodness not as bad as some. I remember a few years back we got 100cm, about 39 inches in one day…I do not want to do that again. Take care and take it slow with the shoveling. Is it at least good snowperson-making snow? 😉

So many people touch our lives for so many reasons, it is beyond sad when they die, but they live on in our memories. I loved Bowie, still do. I admired Alan Rickman, and still do. 🙂
