A good night's sleep, chocolate, the happiness and satisfaction of sharing on AgingCare forum. Does anyone have some favorite things to think about? Yes, this phrase is from the song in the movie "The sound of Music". My husband and I often resort to using movie lines and song to improve communication. We were the only two in a gathering of people who heard the background music playing. We both had the same (cassette tape/CD). A connection bringing two people together. To this day, we crack up when one uses a simple movie line to make a serious point.
SO, What is one of your favorite movie line, some of your favorite things?
I see trees of green 🌲
Red roses too 🌹
I see them bloom 🌻
For me and you 👫
And I think to myself 🤔
What a wonderful world 🌎
I see skies of blue ✈️
And clouds of white ☁️
The bright blessed day 🌞
The dark sacred night 🌃
And I think to myself 👤
What a wonderful world 🌏
The colors of the rainbow 🌈
So pretty in the sky 🌤
Are also on the faces 😊
Of people going by 🤸♂️🤸♀️🤸♀️🚴🚴♂️🚴♀️⛹
I see friends shaking hands 🤜🤛
Saying how do you do 🫂
They're really saying 🗣
I love you 💞💞💞
I hear babies cry 💦
I watch them grow 🐎
They'll learn much more 📖
Than I'll ever know 🎶
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Ooh, yes
"What a Wonderful World"
Louis Armstrong
I am going to put that on my non-existent "bucket-list". (joke).
I don't have a bucket list, and not even material possessions that bring me JOY.
If I threw away things I am using that don't bring me joy, joy, joy, ..........Lol.
We went to Kennebunkport Maine at the Colony Hotel and then off to Hampton Beach. Both are favorites of mine, but Hampton is special because as a family we went every summer on vacation. Those were the good old days.
We took my mom to the beach yesterday. It was wonderful. We had fresh seafood, sat on the beach, took a walk, and we all watched the fireworks. It was very nice and warm before the fireworks but got a little cold after. My mother had two warm blankets on and wanted to stay for the fireworks. People were so nice, and most stopped to say hello and wish her a happy birthday. It was a great day, indeed. Boy just a few days off from all the hustle and bustle of every day life I feel so refreshed and relaxed.
The cake served 12 people and only one small slice left from the four of us. Delicious tasting cake.
I told my mother you wished her a Happy Birthday and she smiled.That was sweet, Thank you!
Happy Birthday Mom!
Actually, I was thinking of the song.
So I am sitting in the ER now,
waiting to be seen.
