Dearies, I just wanted to say that with everything going on in the world, I truly value this space we inhabit here as a safe and happy and peaceful place where we can all just sit and be kind to one another. I often worry that my blathering seems dis-engaged or completely oblivious, but I realized this morning as I was scrolling through beautiful pictures of stitching and grandbabies that this is exactly what we need. Thank you, dear dear friends, for this thing of ours.
And now...a little eye candy to take with you to sustain yourself through your day (if this is the way your teeter-totter teeters). There's just something about a handsome man in a crisp white shirt that gives me the tingles!
(Just promise me that you will stand witness to the fact that I am a completely harmless portly spinster when the authorities question my interwebs stalking of this poor kid.)(And yes...I completely agree that he looks exactly like a Disney prince cartoon character come to life!)
With needle and thread, we will all navigate this sometimes horrifying world. Thank you for continuing to provide an entertaining blog that brightens the lives of your readers
ReplyDeleteAnd indeed today’s human eye candy looks like a Disney prince come to life.

He looks like my psychologist when I was in university, lol. Eye candy, indeed.
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn’t already a Notre Dame football fan after watching him I would be a convert for sure!
ReplyDeleteOh Coni, your post was spot on. Who is the dude in the crisp white shirt?
ReplyDeleteThat's Sam Hartman...the QB at Notre Dame.
DeleteOh dear. I was having fantasies about a kid young enough to be my grandson!! (Blushing.)

It's okay, we're still in our twenties in our heads, & we're not hurting anyone
DeleteYour blog is exactly what we need to help keep our focus on the good and positive things. I look forward to it every day!
ReplyDeleteI agree. Hard to avoid news and the weight of the world. We can be responsible consumers and look for truths. I follow my substack writers and analysts. Its depressing and I feel powerless to do much so I keep most of my donating to local charities near home. THIS place - your lovely blog - is the escape I need to keep myself sane and functional in the face of the hard stuff.
ReplyDeletehe does : ) A little too pretty for me
ReplyDeleteLove keeping you with your blog. But, the gentleman doesn't teeter my totter. I prefer clean-shaven faces, but that's just me.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the crisp white shirt and a new pair of jeans gets my attention every time
ReplyDeleteWhat a pity.... we've lived too long, or he came along too late...
ReplyDeletebut handsome he is, indeed.
I love you, Coni, you hit the nail on the head as it were. We need our little space of sanity with gorgeous eye candy! Debby in CO
ReplyDeleteI agree that in this world, especially now, we need an escape from all the grim news. As I said to my DH the other day, we need to watch the news enough to know what's going on in the world, but not so much that it's all we experience. Also we need to be kind and helpful in our part of the world.
