Burr.....

I am a very big fan of: The J. Peterman Company. The catalog reads like a Hemingway short story novel, speaking of lamplight on cobblestones, clothing from Hollywood's silver screens of the 1930s, and wonderful scents saved from formula notes from an Englishwoman's diary from long ago.

Anyway, after my very brisk, chilly morning walk, I realized I need these! (Santa...hint, hint)! You can visit The J. Peterman Company web site here http://www.jpeterman.com/.

Keep Warm!

Thankful

My birthday was over the weekend. For once I did not think "Oh, I'm getting older", but a feeling of total thankful seems to fill me. I am thankful for my life that I have lived, the lessons I have learned, and the lessons I have left to learn. I am thankful for my family, and friends, and the gifts that have been given to me, both those that I can see and those I can only feel. There is a deep feeling of peace and gratitude that seems to be wrapping me, as though a wonderful blanket has been placed on my shoulders. Is this the feeling one

receives as one grows older? If it is, I give thanks.
