Happy 40th Anniversary Sesame Street

I love Sesame Street. Today Sesame Street turns 40. I grew up on Sesame Street. I remember watching the show and singing along with the songs. I liked all the residents, but I really enjoyed Bert and Ernie. I even had Bert and Ernie gloves as a kid. My mom had gotten me the Sesame Street record collection so that I could sing all the songs in my room ( Think that I still have those records. Maybe my future children can listen to them). I know all the words to the songs "C is for Cookie" and " One of These Things is Not Like the Other Thing". I think that the Count actually helped me learn how to count. I always wanted to go to my local corner store, maybe hoping it was like Mr. Hoopers store and Big Bird and Maria would come walking in. From Big Bird, to Oscar the Grouch to Elmo, they all share in the wonder of a childs mind in making learning fun. Happy Anniversary Sesame Street and I wish you 40 more years!!!

It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Wedded Wednesday: Wife +Sick Hubby =Medical Degree

I posted  last week about my husband being sick. Even though he is feeling better, he went to his doctor to make sure everything was OK. His doctor in-turn referred him to a specialist, to make sure as well. When I asked him what was the specialist going to do, he said " I do not know. Probably just check me out."  That did not sit well with me, so I decided that I needed to attend the appointment with him. We attended the appointment. He signed in at the front desk and the receptionist asked for the paperwork sent. He of course looked at me......especially since I was the one who fill out the paperwork. I am not sure why I filled out his paperwork, probably because he asked me to, but I never have him fill out my medical paperwork. I digress. We were escorted back to the exam room. The nurse was really nice. As she began to ask for some of the medical information, I found myself answering more of the questions than he was. Maybe I should have been quiet. The doctor eventua...
