I find during times of adversity, small victories mean so much more. Wonderfully said.

Wanted to answer your Thematic Photographic question. I posted this on my blog, but wanted to drop it here as well, just to make sure you got it:

Glad you asked. Just post additional links in a new comment on the original (from last Wednesday...37, in this case) Thematic Photographic entry. As many as you like. In fact, many participants post a number of similarly-themed entries each week. The more the merrier!

Hope that helps. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm!

I'm a bit lost regarding the lost 's', I must be having a Monday moment.

However a basket of books is very, very exciting. It has been far to long since I went down my favourite old bookshop with a fiver to spend.

That's one of those books that I would want desperately and would in fact buy ('cause $3 is about right for me) and then sadly I wouldn't fill it. But I would buy it!

Wow. I wish I was in town because I would totally go buy one. So beautiful and fun! An empty notebook just excites me to no end. I love getting a new day planner each January! I like technology, it is so helpful and cool, but there is something spectacular about handwriting down tidbits of information. LOVE IT!

I just love that they left the final 's' off the word! It is such a commentary on what makes one happy! LOL

It's not always things.

Like esses!

I think I would have bought them all and done some kind of installation with them!

Terrific find.

S is an overused and overrated letter.
