RSS Comes, RSS Goes

I added way too many RSS feeds, decided I didn't need any of them, deleted them all. I'm relieved that I was able to perform both procedures.

Nous aidons aux voisins de la bibliothèque

We go to extraordinary measures here at North Branch to help our Central Street neighbors. The Spice House called and requested help with a French-speaking customer who was on the phone. I ran down the block and spoke with a baker in Montreal! Now spicy perfume follows me wherever I go.

Color in Motion


A friend is making a quilt for us. As soon as I learn how to put the picture of this work in progress on the blog, I will include it here.

UPDATE

It was too compicated to move it from my email but Kate did it for me.

We're not going to have so much yellow in the final quilt.

Winging around the World

The blog, The Guiding Light, belongs to my son, Josh. He is a birding tour guide out of South Africa for Tropicalbirding.com. He comments on some of his guided trips and also some of the trips he's taken as a birder. My favorite posting of his is from Monday, December 23, in which he sums up his travels from the previous year. He's fortunate to have a passion that translates into a job.

Has Gallup been reading my blog?

Last night, I was the only adult over 18 at home when Gallup Poll of Nebraska called. I LOVE answering questionnaires. Please ask me my opinion! One of the questions was, "Do you smile a lot?". I should have directed them to About Me on my blog!
