Beginnings of The View

Hey y'all!

I am taking a cue from my friend Josie. She's a blogger and I enjoy interacting with her and sharing my thoughts and views about what she has published. I think this might be fun. Check in from time to time to see what I am thinking and what my point of view for the day is. Don't be shy. Leave me a comment, just be nice - OK. The "World" is watching.

I might write about my wonderful grandchildren, my two lovely daughters, my most wonderful husband, what I am doing for the day or my favorite pastimes. I will probably share pictures from time to time too.

So, let's get started.

Thought for the day.........If you know me then you know that on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, during the hours of "American Idol" - don't call me. I am totally into American Idol. Last night, my favorites were Melinda and Phil. Love the show, love to predict who is going home and who America is falling in love with. So, I told you my fav's, now my not so favorite and who I think is going home tonight.......Sanjaya.

I have other favorite subjects that I'll be talking about from time to time......they include:

1) My family: Cliff, Emily, Whitney, Lidia, Sawyer, Jorge, Mothers and Fathers, Sisters and Brothers, Nieces and Nephews, Cousins (you get the picture)
2) My faith
3) Quilts
4) Genealogy
5) Gardening
6) Purple Flowers
7) Kayaking with Cliff
8) My friends: You know who you are
9) Laughing
