W is for What a Wonderful World


I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Bob Thiele and George David Weiss

PS. Happy Birthday to a wonderful silvery-gold friend! (You know who you are!)
and a Happy little shout out to the amazingly sweet blogger I met at my neighbors garage sale! You were exactly like I thought you'd be AND it was a pleasure to meet beautiful you and your beautiful little daughter!

    I spent the evening with Granddaughter Alivia and she sang 'It's a Wonderful World' most of the time. She says they sing it everyday at school.

Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! My handy dandy e-mail assistant always notifies me when you do and I read every single one.

I try to respond to comments with a return e-mail BUT I just noticed that I've been answering a lot of them to blogs that haven't linked their e-mail address to their Google account! I haven't been ignoring your comments, but now I know you aren't getting my reply e-mails! I'm sorry!

I know a lot of other bloggers who respond to comments via e-mail so if you haven't left off your e-mail on purpose, you might want to add it on! If you don't know how you can let me know in your comment and I'll see if I can help you!

Thanks so much for reading my 'Tangents'! Your comments always feel like a hug!
