Wednesday Wonders

Hello everyone!  A very warm welcome to you all! I see that some of you have noticed that I changed the name of my blog.  Indeed I did!  It was sudden, and it just came to me yesterday.  I changed it for a couple of reasons...one is that I wanted to reflect more of what type of a person I am as well as what I wanted this blog to be...and to do for you all!  I think also that peaceful place is easier for all to understand for everyone, at least I hope it will be.  :)

The videos I have selected for this post are:

A Just for Laughs Gag/Juste pour Rire

Westinghouse 1949 Christmas Appliances Commercial

Soothing Music and White Sand Beaches

Baby Owl Enjoys Being Petted

Hello Reindeer - Children's Christmas Song


For the following, I am providing the link sources beneath each photo.  You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.

    I did notice that your changed the name of your blog and I like it very much! It is very serene.

    A toaster, waffle iron and a coffee maker for Christmas. Now make me breakfast, woman! And here is a grilled cheese sandwich maker. I want lunch in 4 hours!

    Little wee owl. Awwww!

  2. Good day Linda, I enjoyed the soothing music and white sand beaches, very relaxing to hear the sound of waves and the little owl, it is so cute.

  3. White sandy beaches would be something many in your region would be longing for these days, eh? Hope the winter's good, not too cold.

  5. That ad now looks so primitive! The baby owl is adorable! Owl motifs are all the rage now, and I have several. Even an owl pillow for the girls.

  18. The quote about children's emotions is really true. They powerfully experience emotions, and they haven't yet learned how to cope with them. Fun gag as always. Have a great day!

    ReplyDelete

    et la dernière quote ma plaît beaucoup..


    have a good day Linda

  27. J'aime bien les rennes et je ne suis pas la seule, beaucoup d'entreprises ou de firmes les ont choisis comme emblème...
    Aujourd'hui, je lisais dans un magazine que les enfants sont des personnes mais pas des adultes en miniature

    I was told by a bird trainer that owls are very mistrusting. The only time it bonds with humans is before it opens their eyes for the first time.

  40. Such an important quote about children's emotions - but really it goes for everyone's emotions. Just because something may not make you feel a certain way, doesn't mean someone else's feelings are not valid.

  41. I love the Christmas cards. Lovely selection.
