Compliments, Strength, Inner Beauty

Hello dear friends and fellow bloggers! A very warm welcome to you all! Thank you so much for taking the time to come and visit me here! I want you all to know how much I appreciate it!

I already mentioned this in my last post, but for those of you who didn't get to see that post...I will continue posting throughout the Christmas holidays and the New Year!

Every Monday and Thursday you will see a new post. Some people get lonely, depressed or stressed during this time of year, and it is my hope that my posts will provide some brightness, comfort and joy!

Thank you all so much for your love and support, it really means so much to me!

Here are today's selections, which I hope will brighten your day in some way.

The following photos are my own, which I took on November 27th, on a walk here in Montreal. This first photo is of a little Christmas tree outside a funeral home. In the back you can see "Chapelle", which is the French word for "chapel" You can click on any image to see a larger view.

I went out to a delicatessen for breakfast, and this was my meal, a cheese omelet with tomato slices, coffee and water. I don't have an omelet often, so it was a nice treat. And no, I had no toast or anything else to eat with this meal except for what is in the photo. I have mentioned that I am not a big eater, but I do my best to eat healthy! :)

The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French), done here in Montreal! Enjoy! :)

  2. I loved the Carol of the Bells at the end. We sang that song when I was in high school chorus! It was such fun to sing along with again! And the story of the "attack/guard cat" was great!! I appreciated all of the posts/quotes tonight. I was feeling a little blue, and this one cheered me up! Thank you!!!
