The Holleys host Scenic Sunday. Thanks a lot for hosting. From the Scenic Sunday blog comes this:

“Scenic Sunday is a photo meme of the scenery. It can be landscapes, buildings, flowers, or anything you feel it’s a scenery photo. This meme will be held every Weekend. To join, just post your scenery shots on your blog and link back to Scenic Sunday. Please do visit each other and comment.”

Of course this will be a post for a brand new adventure that Dr. John at Dr. John’s Fortress has started. Please click on his blog link or the picture below for further instructions. Mahalo Dr. John for hosting this new adventure. I look forward to it.

A while back, Doug at Waking Ambrose mentioned something about the buses here in Honolulu. I can’t remember the comment exactly but I think it had something to do with the color of them. Well it’s taken me some time mostly because of my scaevity with time, I don’t know where it always goes, but I thought for this Scenic Sunday I would show the different buses we have at work. Not very scenic to many I’m sure, but when it’s been your work for 20 years, which by the way I just made 20 years with my company on January 24, 2010, YAHOO…pffft, I thought I would share. I hope you enjoy.

Have a very happy Scenic Sunday everyone!

Hey, it’s only my opinion.

You Love to Talk About Rumors

You’re the first to admit that you’re a huge gossip. You love to speculate about people. You are always up on the latest rumors, and whether they’re true or not hardly matters. In fact, you’ve been known to start a rumor or two just to keep the conversation going. It’s all in good fun. You don’t mind if people gossip about you. In fact, you welcome it! It’s only gossip after all.

Rosidah at Music of My Life and her husband are celebrating their 10th year Wedding Anniversary today. I want to wish them a very Happy Anniversary and a wonderful day with many many more years to come

This was sent by Dulce at Sweeter Poetry. Mahalo Dulce. It’s wonderful and I appreciate it.

I would never trade my amazing friends, my wonderful life, my loving family for less gray hair or a flatter belly. As I’ve aged, I’ve become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself. I’ve become my own friend. I don’t chide myself for eating that extra cookie, or for not making my bed, or for buying that silly cement gecko that I didn’t need, but looks so avante garde on my patio. I am entitled to a treat, to be messy, to be extravagant.

I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.

Whose business is it if I choose to read or play on the computer until 4 AM and sleep until noon? I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 60 &70′s, and if I, at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love … I will.

I will walk the beach in a swim suit that is stretched over a bulging body, and will dive into the waves with abandon if I choose to, despite the pitying glances from the jet set.

They, too, will get old. I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as well forgotten. And I eventually remember the important things.

Sure, over the years my heart has been broken. How can your heart not break when you lose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when somebody’s beloved pet gets hit by a car? But broken hearts are what give us strength and understanding and compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will never know the joy of being imperfect.

I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face. So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver.

As you get older, it is easier to be positive. You care less about what other people think. I don’t question myself anymore.
I’ve even earned the right to be wrong.

So, to answer your question, I like being old. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going to live forever,
but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day(if I feel like it).

MAY OUR FRIENDSHIP NEVER COME APART ESPECIALLY WHEN IT’S STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART!

“Hear ye, hear ye!” the town crier yelled. “It is the Queen’s desire, so as not to roblet her subjects, to inform you that as of today there will be a new Royal Ass Kisser.” The town crier had to hide his laughter at the thought.

“Will Her Highness be choosing one of her subjects?” a voice yelled back with sounds of scaevity spewing from his mouth.

Still trying to hide his laughter, the town crier yelled back “Heavens no. The Royal Ass Kisser shall be a pure bread bred with the bluest of blood. Her Highness is not here to gnathonize her subjects you fool. And there will certainly not be any commoners lips on Her Majesty’s buttocks!”

Feeling his scaevity gone, because no commoner would have to have the job, the voice cried back to the town crier “Sir, do you mean that the Royal Ass Kisser really as to kiss the Queen’s ass?”

The town crier yelled back “Of course, especially after Her Highness walks down the aisle and says Her “I Do’s” with the Royal Ass Kisser!” Not being able to contain himself any longer, the town crier was rolling on the pedestal laughing hysterically.

“I Do.” said the town crier.

You Are a Cumulus Cloud

You are a joyful and easy going person. You have a lot of enthusiasm for live and living well. Your motto may as well be, “No things in moderation.” You are content to enjoy all the food and drink you want. People find you very approachable and at times cuddly. You are usually have a big smile on your face. You are truly blissful and content. Nothing is going to bring you down. It’s like you’re walking in the clouds!

Although there still remains speculation on how Tiger got his lips cut up the other night….some say his lovely little wife did in fact take a 9 iron to his mug as a result of a domestic dispute over another woman. Other are saying that he did a face plant into the steering wheel or windshield when he hit a fire hydrant and then a tree, because he couldn’t sleep that night thinking about the upcoming tourney he was hosting and the problems he has had driving it straight…so he was out practicing bare foot in his escalade!

But, NIKE has once again shown complete support for their prize athlete and have paid for reconstructive lip surgery….

First paragraph is more me than anything. There is no scaevity living in Hawai’i when it comes to winter weather so why complain. Plenty of sunshine and warmth in the winter makes me very happy.

You Are Gloves

You seek control in your life. You like to feel like you have a handle on things. You are naturally competent and responsible. You don’t trust anyone but yourself. Winter is when you try to push on and live normally. You aren’t about to let cold weather slow you down. You may not love winter, but you don’t complain about it. Why complain about what you can’t change?

Mark at An Eerie Tapestry has a birthday today. WOOT! I understand that he is older than dirt. LOL. Have a great Birthday Mark and many many more. HBD
