Sweet Life With Mary

Found this meme all over the internet. The Three Things meme. For this one, I interviewed Mary and this is HER list.
Three things that make me laugh

when there’s a whoopee cushion and somebody sits on it
when somebody tells a joke
when people like, fart

Three things that make me cry

The “Why Do You Blog?’ meme was circulating early this year and I was not any active blogger yet to have been tagged or to even be aware of it. Ryan Healy was not tagged but did it to get in the fun and started his own Tag thread.  I want to get in the [...]

“I greet this day with love in my heart.”  This is my first thought as soon [...]

Introduction
I must have been crazy to take on NaBloPoMo (blog everyday in November??? With Thanksgiving and all kinds of school holidays???

Partly Cloudy, 60’s, a Perfect Fall Day

…someone has other ideas…

“Get Up, Mother!”
