Back in the early 60s my hubby went to Haiti on a ship with other Marines and Sailors. He described the condition of that country and felt so sad for those people. Poverty beyond description to most of us. No sanitation. Bathroom duties were done right there in the street, women squatted and men stood and did what they needed to do. He said it was filth beyond anything he'd ever seen. Personally, I think it's very sad.

Recently I've come across a few blogs from surfing from other blogs. The blog posts were pretty old but in perusing them further I noticed that some had abandoned the blog altogether and some had deleted their blogs—or so they thought. Let me state here and now that a blog is never deleted from the web. Once it's published, it's published forever! I'd go to the new blog site, which sometimes they'd give a new name and start over, but the old one was still there. So be careful. This particular blogger thought her old blog sounded too "down" and wanted to start all over with a less depressing blog. Well, she got a new blog but the old one was still there for all to see. I can't say it enough: Once you hit the word "Publish", it's a done deal and there forever. So be very careful what you say on a blog. You can't take it back.

Smile as though you make them wonder why you're smiling. I do. It will always bring a smile back to you.

A beautiful passageway in a European country.
A lovely English road with the homes right on the edge of the road. Quaint.
Isn't this evening purse gorgeous with its white embroidered fabric?
A blue room like this is something I could live with if I didn't like pink so much. This is beautiful.
This entry is stunning and I'd love to have it. But that chest is gorgeous!
Very bright and lovely kitchen area. Looks almost like a restaurant.
Another narrow, windy, steep road in Europe somewhere.
More thatched cottages.
Pink antique kitchen table.
Cute bathroom.
Beautiful sun room/dining room near the water.
Beautiful pillows stacked on a lovely chair.
A pretty vignette with fans and roses and ephemera.
Cute little embroidered wall hanging for a kitchen.
Looks to me like an old English country bedroom. That chair looks very substantial.

Tidbits:
A Danish company has given its employees free subscriptions to internet p**n sites, but what would you expect from a country that now euthanizes its citizens. Sad and horrific in my opinion.

Our state is #1.
Here is what the "D, F, G and H" states are #1 in:
Delaware:
Most profitable farms
Theft
Florida:
Freshwater turtles
Mortgage loan fraud
Georgia:
Best conditions of roads
Personal bankruptcy filings
Hawaii:
People who carpool to work
Highest cost of living
