Okay, here’s my question:
Would you all mind if, every once in a while over the next couple of weeks, I share some of my favorite things with you?
I’m not going to have tons of time. In fact, I may have very little of it—in which case I could wrap up some special treats—foiled paper, beautiful bows—and give you periodic peaks—sort of, my special wishes for while I’m away.
Now, I won’t literally be “away”—just preoccupied with moving out of Haiti and home to Kentucky:
me, one disaster-response refugee, two dogs, and a whole house full of stuff.(Good God, the task is daunting!)
So—
Today, in honor of this get-the-hell-out-of-Haiti-favorite-things series, I offer you—
(steel drums playing)
a medium box calico paper butterfly bow—My absolute, favorite movie as a child,
The Sound of Music and (appropriately enough)—
“My Favorite Things”—(now, aren’t you surprised!)
What was your favorite movie as a child?
And, what’s one of your favorite things?
Okay–I apologize.
I woke up to this morning to, “You mean to tell me you build up a readership, and then you throw your audience my “Favorite Things!”
She insists this was a throw-away post, that I would have been better to post nothing.
So, I promise–no more soft posts! I will write, write, write–even through the move! I’ve got a monster in the bed next to me insisting, I don’t dare let you down again–especially if indeed “every reader is a gift and every comment a surprise!”
Sara won’t stop mockingly singing “My Favorite Things!”
