Brain Drain

Happy swing

Quotes I Like This Week…..

  • Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.
  • Happiness comes when you stop taking inventory.
  • When someone shows you who they are, believe them…the first time.
  • Industry is the enemy of melancholy.
  • Perfect is the enemy of good.

I’m wondering…..

                       what is Instagram all about and why are people crazy about it?

American Idol ( I can’t help myself!)…….


           I really like J Lo on the show. She seems like a sweet person and makes comments occasionally that make me think she loves Jesus. So, how can she make such nasty music videos like the one they showed this week? Lots of kids are fans of the show and probably are the ones who do a lot of voting.
           Jennifer is a mom. How can she think that is right? Makes me think of movie and TV stars who say they never let their children watch TV. They don’t want their kids to watch filth, but they don’t mind enticing your kids and mine with it.
           Jessica can sure sing, but I think she acts like a fake. Sorry.

I’m confused…..

          Gays are demanding the right to marry.
          Heterosexuals don’t want to get married and are having kids anyway.

          What does this say about us?

    I go back and forth with JLo…she's a bit too flashy for me. And I have to agree, people who don't let their children watch TV, sometimes it involves more education then they are getting at home.

    I'm with you, I like JLo but I think that her videos are not great. I wonder what she is trying to prove. She doesn't need to put herself out there like that. It is sad that she and her hubby broke up.

    Great post today- I hope you have a wonderful weekend. xo Diana ps. LOVE that first swing picture.

    I love using Instagram on my iPhone – it's a program to take photos and add borders and various effects such as vintage, before sending/sharing.

    JLo, a somewhat trashy 'cougar' like so many of today's celebrities. Sad because these powerful women could use their celebrity to help our young girls feel good about themselves rather than make them mirror images!

    I feel Idol is definitely on a downslide this year, perhaps it will not return. Definitely not the same as when Simon was at the helm. Jessica should win – she's got the best voice and that's what this show is supposed to be about, right?

    I'm back and ready to catch up – appreciate your recent comments while I was traveling.
    Hugs – Mary

    Speaking of "I'd like to wear – – -" I saw this absolutely darling zebra print top in our clothing ministry today — – I REALLY wanted to wear it – – – too bad it was so small I couldn't even get my THUMB through the sleeve.

    Fun post! Yes, the contrast between Jesus-loving and filth-producing boggles my mind too!

    Thought provoking post. I love the vintage bicycle. Would love to have one like this to place outside my shop. Thanks for following A Joyful Cottage. I'm following you back. 🙂
