Oh Look!

Meandering through Marshall’s, I made the most AMAZING discovery:

I’m no longer going to age or get old!

Really! Look!

I wish I had known this is all it took earlier!

Five Friday Happy Bringers 11/7/25

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Realizing last Saturday night that I can, as Cher so desperately wished, turn back time.

Goodbye, daylight savings time.

2. Embracing (well not literally) the Joy of Candles! Especially autumnal pumpkin spice-smelling candles.

(My heart was a bit broken recently when I discovered that pumpkin spice really has nothing to do with actual pumpkins. It’s called “pumpkin spice,” of course, because those spices are frequently found in pumpkin pie. Wouldn’t you think someone my age would know that?)

3. The ability to smell. (Well, most of the time.)

4. Our little potted Japanese Maple (aka JM), stubbornly refusing to admit that it is now FALL.

Here’s our little fellow about this time last year …

I haven’t shown the photo to JM. I don’t want to rush him and be one of those parents who cause their kids to develop “hurried child syndrome.”

5. And finally, this is a follow-up to my post the other day about finding those little Jesus figurines (!) on the gas pump at Kroger. Remember?

Well, yesterday HR and I went to Publix for our weekly It’s-Wednesday’s-buy-one-get-one-free shopping spree.

We were minding our own business, when lo and behold, I looked down at the BOGO queso and saw …

Wait. Look closer.

See Him?!

Yet another Little Jesus! Seriously!

I made Robert snap a photo for documentation (quickly, because people were beginning to stare.)

Somebody must SERIOUSLY be on a mission here in Savannah.

And may you complete a Serious Mission to find some Autumn Happiness this weekend.

Someone Felt I …

Pulling up to the gas pump at Kroger this morning, I got out of the car …

Walked closer to the pump …

Closer still …

A tad closer …

And I saw Him/Them …

Someone felt I needed … a little Jesus.

I agreed. So I filled up my tank — and walked away with Him.

Bathroom Basking

A blog category about finding “interesting decor” in various bathrooms I’ve come across.

So yesterday, Robert and I drove over to Bluffton, South Carolina to attend my daughter Amy’s ribbon-cutting ceremony for expansion of her Savannah- based medical company, Coastal Care Partners.

Afterwards, we had lunch at our VERY favorite fried chicken restaurant on the planet, Cahill’s Market and Chicken Kitchen. (I love its name.)



Cahill’s is a working farm.

Fall greens

Yum times 100.

At my age, I always pay careful attention to the whereabouts of the nearest restroom.

Restroom? Do you really rest in a restroom?

And here are a few other synonyms for restroom …

merriam-webster.com

Bog?! Jakes?!

Anyway, before leaving Cahill’s and driving back to Savannah, of course I had to visit the, the … garderobe.

And look what I Halloween-y found!

Chicken made out of beer bottle caps. And why wouldn’t you? 

I left the, the … watercloset, relieved and in a bit more of the upcoming holiday spirit.

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. A reminder of childhood as I walked through Savannah‘s Ardsley Park neighborhood.

2. The joy of grandchildren this week.

Madison (blonde, lower right) singing a duet at a school choral event.

Gabriel getting his driver’s license.

3. Putting my head on my pillow in my bed each night. And realizing what a tremendous blessing that simple act really is.

4. Seeing this silly little whatever-it-is in a bathroom. 

5. Getting a HUGE flower arrangement after having some minimally invasive back surgery recently. 

May you have a Huge Blossom of Happiness this weekend.
