I see dead people
Posted: February 25, 2015 Filed under: LOVE | Tags: dear friends, friendship, I see dead people, James Taylor - Fire and Rain Live 1970, karaoke partner in vocal crimes, Laughter, love, love only, single mother sisters, Sisterhood, social media reminders, true friends Leave a commentI’ve been sent email reminders about my friends’ work anniversaries, notifications that they’ve been tagged in posts and for one dear friend that she is having a birthday. Actually no she’s not, she left us to join the angels last year. On Facebook, LinkedIn and in my email list dead friends pop up to remind me they’re not here any more. I can’t bear to delete them from my phone and social media won’t let me discard them either.
I see their shining faces in photos and I smile.
One darling friend has been dead for a year and now she has a new connection on LinkedIn
She lives on in my heart and the world wide web forever

I love Lucy
Posted: August 6, 2012 Filed under: Birthdays, COMEDY, LOVE | Tags: 1911 births, August 6 birthdays, fabulous female clowns, female comedians, female comedy actors, female executives, Laughter, Lucille Ball, Lucy is drunk again, The Lucy Show 2 CommentsOne of my favourite female clowns, Lucille Ball, was born today. She had the most marvellous face and superb timing. Lucy was pregnant on television at a time when this was frowned upon by male executives. She was also the first woman in television to be head of a production company: Desilu, the company that she and Desi Arnaz formed. Thank you Lucy for blazing a trail for women in comedy and sharing your gift.

She who laughs lasts

Babies laugh up to 300 times per day, adults about 20. Laughter affects our immune system, lowers cortisol levels in our body and helps us connect with other people who have a twinkle in their eye.
