Happy Week, Saturday


One of the things that makes me happy is reading a really good post. In fact, in my bookmarks I have a folder called Perfect Posts. It's packed full, and for the past hour I've been enjoying rereading some old favorites. It occurred to me that you might enjoy them too. I hope so.

* posts that offer wisdom

** posts that ignite a spark

*** posts that make me laugh

**** posts that hold up a mirror

If you have a little time and are feeling generous, won't you leave a comment with a link to a favorite post? I'd love to discover more perfect posts.


The image above is a card one of my friends made for me years ago. If you liked these links you might want to click here and here.

Hi Relyn,
This one is different, but it was so very useful and valuable to me.

I have seen some of your favourites, will return to relish others later.
BTW one other favourite of mine is the BOOK project, which you carried out. It was the BEST.
Only great teachers like you inculcate what is required. I even shared it with the readers of my blog.

Hope you are having a great Sunday.
Best,

That's a great idea creating a file of 'perfect posts' when I find some great ones I print them out to read over and over or put on the wall. Sometimes they are just a picture. Lots of them came from right here:)

Char said...

beautiful little clicks and love. I have so many I could fill up a page with friends' beauty and wisdom.

Marilyn Miller said...

Thanks for the new blogs to read. I have bookmarked several of them.

So much perfect-ness! Those macarooms!
I'll have to return with link to good post later.

what a happy week and to end with these beautiful posts...I enjoyed all the links my friend. I have so many blog friends that touch my heart with their images and words ..

Elle Bee said...

I enjoyed each one of those posts. It thought the "dictionary" poem was quite clever. And I got a good laugh out of the "old and grumpy" post. :o) Thanks for sharing them with us.

the "old and grumpy" post made me giggle. I LOVE Murder She Wrote and Law and Order and NCIS. My youngest sister does say I'm old - perhaps I should give in, LOL.

Heres one of my faves:

I love this! I've read so many posts that spoke to me, moved me, or just simply made me laugh.... but I didn't bookmark them (how do you do that by the way?).

I can't wait to click and follow the links you gave us. I'm sure if they're your favorites, I'll want to read them, too.

Have a great week at school!

Tracy said...

These are exceptionally uplifting posts in your collection, Relyn...thank you for sharing your favorites. I read many blogs, and feel lucky to be friends with many in blogland, so it's too hard to chose a favorite...I love them all! :o) Happy Day ((HUGS))

You are always so full of wonderful ideas that showcase others. There is one post that I printed out & keep here on my desk, a post that feels like magic to me:

from Tricia Scott

Susan Tuttle said...

what a great idea -- i could use a laugh today -- i think i will pick that one:)

Relyn Lawson said...

Debi,

You made my day. The wonderful link that you shared with me is one of the first Best Posts Ever links I gave. I remember you telling Tricia that you found your way to her from me. I love that we are moved by the same kinds of things.

d smith kaich jones said...

Relyn - We do. :) I love it too.

Jeanie said...

I must dig through some of my favorites, but this is such a wonderful idea. And I'd have to say that most of my favorite posts are any you would find at http://doorsareeverywhere.blogspot.com (aka Beth M.)

Hi Relyn,

Love those home-fashion coordinated macarons! I've bookmarked 'Tartelette' for if I ever have the nerve to try baking some!

I've read so many wonderful posts but not thinking ahead, unlike you, I haven't marked them!!

Oldies, but Goodies
