In response to "Tricky March "

I agree it is a broad sweep. I believe every day is an opportunity.

In response to "First TV"

It's funny. I don't remember TV playing a big part in my life growing up. After all, I spent most of the day (when not at school) outside playing with friends.

I do remember we had a black and white TV (I was hooked on Batman) back in the 60's. I can't recall when we got a color TV. Fast forward to 2025--my wife and I watch a 98" TV.

Oh, and that $1000 TV in 1954 is the equivalent to almost $12,000 today. What a TV you could buy for $12,000.

In response to "Tricky March "

That's a very good point - it makes no sense to single out one month. I'm guessing she was referring to those parts of the world where March represents the beginning of Spring rather than Autumn, new beginnings etc., but even then, it's a bit of a sweeping statement.

Nothing ever goes truly to plan does it? - well said!

In response to "First TV"

I remember that toothpaste but I don't remember the advertisement.

Our tv was also in a huge cabinet with a small screen and the black and white was grainy too.

In response to "Meditation "

Glad that you started with Yoga, and breathing exercises always help. And yes, it's true, as you said, "Today is all we have."

In response to "Easter tradition "

I bought my granddaughter an organizer for her crochet hooks instead of candy this year. Last year I gave her art supplies. My daughter handles the candy in our home. My other grandchildren when they were younger, I sent them things they liked to do. I'm not the candy supplier either.
I like the idea of pajamas, maybe next year that's what I'll get her new spring nightgowns.

In response to "Jeans"

I'm finding it very challenging after my knee surgery. Jeans that I used to wear don't have enough stretch around the knee (it's still swelling) and I don't want to buy new jeans. Even sweat pants are too narrow right now around the knee. Capris' hit right above the knee but smack dab in the middle of the swelling. I hate wearing shorts so I'm wearing knit pajama pants when I go out and while I'm home in a nightgown. The nerve spasms are still an issue.

I agree with you about the cut, I hate jeans that when I sit my butt crack shows so the rise is a huge deal which takes online shopping off the table for me.

In response to "Story Time"

Nice entry!
"Each story had a purpose." Not only in Australia, either. I tend to think all stories have a purpose, even if some want to scare us.

Thank you for your comments. I’m sorry to hear you have the dreaded arthritis too. You never realise how important your feet are until they refuse to work.

Tricky March

Emily Dickinson says, "March is the month of expectation, the things we do not know."

Do you agree with thought? Do you find March indicates more possibilities than January when the new year unfolds?

No, I don’t agree with Emily’s Quote. How could March be the only month which indicates more possibilities than any other month or even day of the year?
Every day holds our expectations. Yet how can we possibly know, when we wake each morning, what that day will bring? You might think the day is planned and all will go to plan but that’s not true in my reality. Nothing ever goes truly to plan does it? There’s always that unexpected moment which surprises.
In my opinion March brings nothing surprising. Because I don’t trust March. The weather here in March is supposed to bring cooler weather. The Autumn trees are not surprised at the shorter days of daylight and begin to turn their leaves a different colour. This year we had typical Autumn days, cool nights, glorious blue sky days with no extreme heat.
‘Summer is over. How gorgeous is this cool weather? ’Everyone was saying. But March can be a tricky beast and she proved it this week as the temperatures soared into the high thirties and there were even a few 40 degree days.
Roll on April with her cooling blessed rains.
