  7. So many great sayings once again. I used to love listening and watching Louis Armstrong, I just loved his gravelly voice. I still have a couple of CDs. Have a fabulous day Diane

  8. Your videos having to do with helping animals made me think of a huge equine center we have just outside of Ocala...it's basically a healing place for race horses and includes a large swimming pool. There are so many wonderful and very helpful posters in this post, too, and I appreciate the time and energy you expend to find them. Love the Mark Twain quote! Hope your week is going well!

  13. Loved the tortoise fix. I had no idea about too much water. Nice fix.

    Also love the fish. What a great thing to do.

    How to dress in the 50s. I'd have failed. I'm not a fashion queen by any means.

    Have a fabulous day Linda. Big hugs to you and tons of scritches to your baby. ♥♥♥

  31. Linda, We watch a lot of animal/vet shows but this is the first time I've seen shell rot on a tortoise and I now know of another use for a dremel tool! The "park" car shows that parallel parking issues have been an issue for many years. It's great that the prototype has been preserved. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

  32. Bonjour Linda,
    J'ai bien aimé regarder la vidéo de la tortue (et les autres aussi) que du plaisir ! Merci à toi

  33. Linda I especially enjoyed seeing the 40's wardrobe dos and don'ts. To me they all seemed quite fashionable. I loved it when folks used to get dressed up. It seemed like it made and ordinary day a bit special. Hmm - maybe I should give it a try. Hope you are doing happy today. Your posts always make me feel that way. Hugs!

  37. Hello Linda!:) Very well chosen videos and quotes, and I enjoyed them all.:) The injured fish getting help with a harness is something I have never seen before, and it's heart warming to think that someone had this idea, and went to the trouble of making it for a little fish. Take care Linda, and thank you for
    sharing these delightful images and inspirational quotes.x

  42. I'm sure the tortoise felt much better after its treatment, and that fish was with its harness was amazing. I like men who like cats, but I married one that cats adore. LOL Have a great evening, my special Montreal friend!
