I don’t usually pass on sad news like this, but sometimes we just need to pause and remember what life is all about. There was a great loss recently in the entertainment world. Larry LaPrise, the Detroit native who wrote the song
“Hokey Pokey,” died last week at 83. It was especially difficult for the family.
They had the hardest time keeping him in the casket. They’d put his left leg in,
they’d take his left leg out and…well, you know the rest.

I’ll wait while you sing the whole song in your head and get the mental picture…

Have a fun-filled day!

Do your windows look like this? How intricate these tiny crystals and snowflakes! And, unless magnified, we could miss just how complicated the design….by the Master Designer, of course.

My friend Kat,at Just A Beach Kat, tagged me to do this meme a while ago. I’m just finally getting around to it. I am to give you 5 weird or random things about myself…here goes:

1. I can not stand to wear pajama pants unless they have elastic at the bottom. Can’t stand them to crawl up my legs while I try to sleep.

2. My name is pronounced like it is spelled…Tonja….with a ‘J’. Most people try to say it TonYa…but they’re wrong. However, my sweet grandmother called me Tonnie all my life.

3. I play solitaire on my palm pilot every night when I get into bed. Something about that just relaxes me, and I get sleepy quickly.

4. I think coffee is the vilest tasting drink ever. I know most people love it…but, I’m not one of them. I do think it smells good though. Give me hot chocolate or hot tea, please.

5. I rode a motorcycle to school when I was in high school.
