Just listening to your 'happiness slot'....so agree with your method of making things fun and making people feel good about themselves...makes you happy and them and you always want to please people you like??
Your comments on Brokeback Mountain make it sound like a very good film (haven't seen it yet but something I do want to see)but can totally relate to comments on Schindlers list...infact have been sooo moved by just the clips on TV that although we owned the film I haven't been able to watch it- just can't do it yet (have been putting it off for years)- such a wonderful story and such horrifying reality.....xxx
No probs about the video from Oak Island either....will do a roving reporting bit for DSM and ACL from the causeway..... :D
Will you say "Carolyn E., Oak Island, Nova Scotia, for Downshiftme"?
Will make us feel like the News at 10 :)
You bet I will- I do 'cheese with ease'......will go down in the morning and hope it is as quiet as it was last week...
Carolyn E, signing off for Downshiftme, from mysterious Oak Island, ahhaaarrrr
xx
