WINNING AT LOVE

There is such a thing as stamp news, and it's usually rather benign!   As was the recently released USPS sky-blue stamp, featuring "an illustration of a plane skywriting the word love.”   Awww, all the heart eyes.   If only love stamps had the power to solve the world's problems?     story

RISING TO THE TOP

Babies aren't always bringing up the rear.  Sometimes they are in the lead!  Wowing "top brass in two recent interviews," Sean McVay at just 30 years of age was hired as head coach by the Los Angeles Rams, "making him the youngest head coach in N.F.L. history."      story

It's that time of the year again!  Thanksgiving.  Enjoy the foodie video.  Kiddos are tasting Thanksgiving side dishes, mostly of years gone by.  Happy about marshmallow covered sweet potatoes arriving on the Thanksgiving scene!  I can't quit you, marshmallow covered sweet potatoes.  (Nowhere but America, am I right or am I right?)

I'm enjoying the girl who proclaims, "it's bad and good at the same time."  Me thinks she spurts out guru-like life wisdom.      



                                     

Principle in the type:  "Regardless of our circumstances, each of us has much for which to be grateful if we will but pause and contemplate our blessings.  This is a wonderful time to be on earth. While there is much that is wrong in the world today, there are many things that are right and good. There are marriages that make it, parents who love their children and sacrifice for them, friends who care about us and help us, teachers who teach. Our lives are blessed in countless ways."    Thomas S. Monson

                                                                                        Happy Thanksgiving, Friends!

In a revolutionary surgery, a woman born without a uterus, received her mother's womb and bore a son.  Emelie Ericksson "was told she would never be able to have children."  But amazingly did, and from the same womb that gave her life!   "It's like science fiction. . . . in the future," but "it's about me," says Eriksson.      story
