Beauty in the Ordinary

This is not about being brilliant, or extraordinary, it's not about wanting to be famous, or making headlines, or trying to impress...this about sharing a 'gift' each day with the world...to lift the spirit of people when they read this blog, to show them the beauty in the ordinary.
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Raold Dahl

    1. This is hilarious Z...didn't even see the numbers in that 'sign' until now...SO not my year! That is the sign of cancer (look closely, it's a crab!)

  3. Happy Birthday, as you transition from Cancer to Leo. I hope you enjoy your month of champagne, and aren't too crabby!

  5. Hello Jacqueline

    I love your way of celebrating. An entire month of bubbly and why not. I say keep celebrating until New Year's Eve.

  6. I began life as Leo, then I became Cancer. I think the 'powers that be' have now decided that I shall remain Cancer.

    My oldest son, and his family, arrive on the 28th, and we always drink lots of Champagne together. I could almost have written your posting for you. I'm the 22nd by the way!

  7. I'm the 23rd Cro!...but have been told by the powers that be that I am a Leo! (not sure how they figure it out). I like having two signs...definitely feel the draw of the home-loving/family loving crab most of the time, but love roaring like a lion every now and then.

    1. A bit schizo about this Sheri...I have the home-loving aspect of cancer, but the roarin' side of leo too...makes for an interesting dilemma!
