I stopped by yesterday and you had a really challenging topic that I wanted to study and take some time. <br /><br />Nicole -- Thanks for visiting from one earthquake zone to another (I'm in Los Angeles --we get a few).

You have a great weekend as well.<br /><br />Paula -- Hope everyone enjoys this week's offerings. Kermit's story will be in keeping with my work theme this week.<br /><br />Ann -- Good to see you again. Colonial Williamsburg sounds interesting, but I've never been even though I lived in Richmond for a while. I have been to Busch Gardens there and visited the Pottery Barn.

Toss in a few good comedies to lighten you up.<br /><br />Dezmond -- Yes I think May Day is the most traditional day to celebrate labor. Of course if you're in Moscow I think they always have a big parade--or a least they used to.<br /><br />Kittie -- 1st anniversary starting week of 9/20. New Orleans could probably use your business more than ever right now, but there's a lot to be said for staying at home.<br /><br />Doris -- Thanks.

I am also bored out of my mind! Too sick to do too much. But enough wallowing! I will most likely make it a movie weekend so that will force me to rest. Also another installment of "Best Laid Plans" within the next few day. Oh and also visiting other blogs.<br />Love Di ♥Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429812875586479256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-46867350656155781192010-09-04T04:50:50.084-07:002010-09-04T04:50:50.084-07:00I'm back to work this week so I think this is ...I'm back to work this week so I think this is a most appropriate topic :) Enjoy the weekend Lee!Jemi Fraserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02214408467456320167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-29235405923865422782010-09-04T03:52:29.420-07:002010-09-04T03:52:29.420-07:00I look forward as usual to the following week of t...I look forward as usual to the following week of topics , so you're coming up to your first anniversary of blogging, are we having a party?<br /><br />Enjoy your week-end;<br />Yvonne,RHYTHM AND RHYMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11386975261804630799noreply@blogger.com
