Ten honest things about me
1) I’m dyslexic
2) I prefer lemon desserts to chocolate
3) My favourite season is summer
4) George Harrison is the Beatles for me
5) I’ve lost entire days follow curved paths, road and lane because I wanted to see what awaited me around the bend.
6) I love perfume, pearls and the smell of new shoes
7) I’m obsessed/fascinated by ambient sound, documentaries, other Gemini especially the females
8) I’m something of an undiagnosed hypochondriac
9) I believe in luck
10) And I far prefer directors to actors.

Aarti’s blog BOOKLUST, Reactions and Musings Catalyzed by Books is a great site for all readers. She offers heartfelt reviews, a brilliant Sunday salon and Rosie's Riveters a weekly posting written by Booklust readers about riveting females in literature.
Doug McMillan’s blog 1yogi2many offers you access to a conscious yogi willing to share his serenity through briefly written truths. I totally dig it and so will you.
One Woman’s Thoughts is a vibrant thoughtful space where life is deconstructed on thought at a time by a woman willing to openly share with us her heart. I adore this blog. Oh and she as some the loveliest photos all of them vivid and lush with colour.
Martin H’s blog Square Sunshine is a beautifully written mood piece. His posts are somethings whimsical, often frank and always well written. Oh and there is some amateur photography taken with a good enough eye to make them compelling.
Here's hoping everyone is having a great week,
Simone

Hi All,
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by and making my day.
Oh and Lori the truth is I've known no other way so I couldn't really say. I guess there is a degree of adapting to compensate for the defect like read twice to make certain I got it right and 'microsoft word' helps a ton.
My warmest regards to all,
Simone
