How Sweet The Sound

My Very First 45

This is the first 45 rpm record I remember purchasing.

It was 1962, and I was ten years old.

 

Is there anyone out there that remembers this?

What's My Question Wednesday

My question for today is ...

 

Dunkin Donuts

or

Krispy Kreme

 

 

 

 

A Tune For Tuesday

Another oldie this week.

 

This was another favorite of my daddy.

He would be celebrating his

eightieth birthday this month,

and I am feeling very sentimental lately.

Just listening to this makes me cry.

No Blues In This Group

Thank you to Sally at Smiling Sally for hosting Blue Monday.

 

This is a group

with no "blues".

We thank God for the miracle

that is each man.

Can you imagine the beauty

they will see in every blue sky

the rest of their days?

 

How Great Is Our God

Pink Saturday - October 16, 2010

   

Happy Pink Saturday !

This week we have one hundred eighty (180) participants in Pink Saturday.  There are four new participants, and you will find them at the bottom of the list.  Let's all take time to welcome them to Pink Saturday.  All participants are listed in the order in which they began participating. 

Please take the time to visit other participants, and leave a comment to let them know you stopped by to enjoy their pink.  Pink Saturday is about having fun, and giving us a chance to meet others in the blogging community.  I promise you it is worth the effort because you will not only see lots of pink, you will meet incredibly nice and talented people.  Please refer to my post dated January 8 for more information about Pink Saturday.

Remember that my reminder e-mail stated I needed your plan for participating today no later than 8 a.m. EST Friday.  If you don't see your name and link here it is because I did not receive your plan for participating by that time.

I want to thank those of you that take the time to leave me a comment.  I love reading what you all have to say.

Reminder - We have a weekly challenge for you to visit the blog of at least one participant that you have never visited before.  Then next Saturday include that blog and a link in your post.  Quite a few of you have been done this challenge, and have met some of the great Pink Saturday participants.  Thank you for sharing with us.

This week I am featuring three blogs of Pink Saturday participants.  These Pink Saturday participants have requested to be a featured blog, and there will be up to five featured blogs each Saturday.  Please visit, get to know and say hello to these participants.  They have each written the following personal greetings to you.

Pink Saturday Featured Blogs

• Gail at Decorating My Tin Shack

Welcome to Decorating My Tin Shack.  I am so excited to be part of the featured blogs this week.  I have been blogging for about 3 years now, it all began with my Wyoming blog, where I share our Homesteading adventures.  Next, came my Big Horn Mountain Creations blog where I feature quilting, crazy quilting, and other crafts that I enjoy doing.  I started Decorating My Tin Shack after I started visiting other decorating blogs and just fell in love with, seeing and being inspired by, what these bloggers were doing, and am hoping I can inspire as well.  Then I discovered blog parties and that is how I came to joining in on Pink Saturday.  I hope you will stop by my blogs for a visit, leave a comment, please.   Thank you Beverly for making Pink Saturday happen, we are truly blessed by PS.  Hugs to all Gail  May God bless you richly.

Hello lovely pink ladies!  It is both an honor and a blessing to be one of this week's featured bloggers - thank you so much Beverly for this opportunity and for thinking up such a great way to unite women!  Honestly, I think the whole world should be pink.  I have a pink phone cover, pink step stool. . . . I love pink!  My blog is about finding hope and meaning in every day experiences and conversations.  I am inspired by people who have had such difficulties in their life and make the choice to encourage or help others.  Recently I began an online marketplace called Woman of Hope.  It is a place for women to come together to share stories, inspire each other and most of all bring hope to others and themselves.  I look forward to getting to know more of you this Saturday!
Blessings, Holly

• Susan at Ash Tree Cottage

How exciting to be a featured blogger for this Pink Saturday!  Ash Tree Cottage published it's first post in January 2010.  From that very first post, Bentley and I entered into a world of fun and friendship.  It has been a wonderful adventure creating posts, participating in fun parties, sharing laughs and tears and meeting some of the most talented and sweet bloggers.  A big special thank you to Beverly for being a lovely and gracious hostess each week and for bringing Pink Saturday fun into our lives!  Lots of love ~ Susan and Bentley

responses.

 

Puzzle Friday

A puzzle for the

fun-lovers.

Come on and play with me.

My advice is to study the picture and

puzzle shape before you start.

These puzzles are fun,

and our brains can

use the workout.

My time was 0:57 seconds.
