Throw Back Thursday......
The Parthenon in Greece when I was there in 2009. The man in the photo,
didn't know it at the time, but he walked behind where I was sitting and his
co-conspiriters, a man and woman, engaged me in conversation re the Boston
Patriots (I was wearing a Patriots jacket) and while the woman told me she was
from Boston this man reached into my backpack and took my wallet!!!
I didn't know it was missing until we stopped for lunch and I was reaching
for my wallet but it was GONE! From our hotel we called the security at the
Parthenon and they said they had found it in a trash can. Got it back, and only
missing was about $300 in euros. Lesson learned!!!
Sad about Mary Tyler Moore dying yesterday at age 80. She was diagnosed
with type 1 diabetes at age 33 and suffered from near blindness resulting from
the disease in recent years.
She was proceeded in death by her only child, son Richard, who
"accidentally" shot himself at age 24 in 1980. She had also suffered from
alcohol addiction and in 1984 checked into the Betty Ford Clinic. She is
survived by her husband of 33 years, Dr. Levine. RIP!

January 26th
Spouse's Day
This is a day
to enjoy and appreciate your better half. You can use this day as a
prelude or warm up to Valentine's Day, perhaps. But, its not as much of a gift
giving event. Rather, use it as a time to show your spouse that you care and
appreciate all of the things that he/she does for you and for the household.
Over the long years of a relationship, its easy to take for granted the many
things your spouse does. He/she's always there. They do so many big and little
things as a routine event. So, take today to notice and to say thanks. As for
the "enjoyment" part of the day...we will leave that up to you to enjoy your
spouse however the two of your desire....
If
you are lucky enough to have one...enjoy each other to the fullest! Mine is
sooooooooooo missed. Difficult to deal with that loss. You'd think it would be easier after 10 years, not!
