A Good News Blog

I just am amazed that others have the same idea. The link: http://www.andnowforthegoodnews.com/ will take you to a blog dedicated to Good News. Every time that I get on the computer I spend a bit of time just finding news articles and or other sites that promote Good News. This one is a great example. Take a look and add it to your everyday web discovery.

A new Year !!! Good News Year!

Happy New Year and Happy Birthday Larry Smith! Last year at this time Larry was the greatest Santa and along with Mrs. Claus (Sue) they delighted Gracie to the max.

As we make plans for the New Year let us keep in mind all the fantastic good things that happen in a year and forget those unhappy and sad things that seem to be the highlight of ever news cast and every conversation. Last night I was telling Mary that we need a "nothing but good news" station. She asked me where we would get the content...which is a good question, although just looking around our own family and the great times that I have with them and my friends, I think we can make a go of it. So, from now on this Blog will be dedicated to the idea that there is nothing but good news. Here are a couple of Good News Web Sites:

I sincerely wish each and everyone of my friends and relatives and all those who sneak into our world through this Blog page, the greatest, happiest, and Good News New Year!

Dinner Club Rumors/Christmas Gift

There seems to be a rumor that the next dinner club date of December 23rd maybe moved. It is the night before the night before Christmas and the host and hostess are entertaining the two nights before, I can understand the hesitancy. So what if it were just a gathering, bring your own meal, or maybe just pizza?


One of the outcomes of getting together prior to Christmas is to decide on the charity we are going to support in lieu of gifts to and from each other. I have added a link to this page on a group in Olympia that is doing lots for the homeless. It is called City Gates Ministries. Maybe in addition to the monetary gift we could volunteer some hours to help distribute food, or lend a hand at what they call "street lights", time spent on the streets talking to the homeless...
