For those who follow these are Good Days, Tuesday and Wednesday, just be sure to trim costs and look for a bargain.  Capricorn moon appears serious and takes no prisoners.

For those who want more, read on:

Sometimes you are just along for the ride, and other times you are the ride.  On Saturday, I chauffeured three members of my family, three women all over eighty-five to breakfast.  It had been five years since they had seen each other, the three together.  One is my mother, her sister who is ninety-four and the third their sister-in-law.  The conversation began with a laundry list of ailments and present infirmities but quickly switched to nostalgia.  They talked about when they were young and how each met their husbands and what it was like to be a young girl in the 20’s and 30’s of the twentieth century.
 
As I sat among them I realized what a moment I was sharing, I knew that the possibility of another reunion might not occur in their lifetime.  Another reason to be in the moment, to savor the minutes together and say I love you, I love your face and your laugh, I love how you eyes dance when you smile and how time has not changed your spirit.
 
Blog what you feel, see, and hear.
 
On Friday this week, June 12th, please stop for my review of Freckleface Strawberry and the Dodgeball Bully by Julianne Moore.  I will have her tour site up and lots of info regarding this charming story.  Ms. Moore is an award-winning actress, tireless children’s advocate and U.S. Ambassador for Save the Children.  Her focus is literacy and early childhood education. 
 
Have the best day everyday…
