    Wowza! What a light filled week! Brilliant, Tracy, thanks for sharing.

  • Nikki

    Ok, so let’s talk about your grandpa’s VHS tape. “The Three Lives of Thomasina”?! That was hands down my favorite movie when I was a kid. I’m pretty much the reason my local video store had to stop renting it out…I checked it out so many times that I wore down the tape. Have you seen it? If so, then my Sunday morning has been made, because no one else even knows what I’m talking about when I bring this movie up, lol.

    • K

      I remember watching “The Three Lives of Thomasina” on a VHS tape recorded from TV by my grandma! She used to record cartoons and movies for us, because she lived in town and had cable, haha. I still have the VHS she recorded of “Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte.”

    • Tracy

      Yes!!! We had a cat named Thomasina (named after that movie) when I was young. She was the best cat!!!

    • Rhonda Thomson

      The Three Lives of Thomasina was my favorite Disney movie, too! You may not be old enough to remember when Disney had a movie on TV every Sunday night back in the pre-cable days: The Wonderful World of Disney. My siblings and I had to be bathed, in our pjs and NOT arguing in order to watch it – big motivator! Anyway, I loved that movie!

  • Sasha

    That photo of your sweet cat that you titled Alfred Hitchcock movie, actually reminds me of Salvador Dali. So cute!

  • Sara

    My grandfather also records collects VHS tapes! Your grandfather’s handwriting looks so similar to his too!

  • Lori

    Your striped dress and leggings are super cute! Love the VHS tape. I have the same happy memories of my Mema 🙂

  • Liz

    that photo cooper took of you is INSANELY GREAT!

  • Linda

    I love that balloon dog. Artist Jeffrey Koons
    did the original. It’s worth millions!

  • charley

    I look at these posts every week and they always bring a little light to my day. Thanks for sharing what inspires you! Do these posts ever get old, or do you enjoy putting them together each week?

  • mary

    love love love the new ‘do and dress.

    cooper is a handsome little lad…. reminds me of my now 21 year old son. sigh. life is soooo good, isn’t it? and yet it just RIPS ON BY?!

  • Ashley

    All I can think is why on earth am I not wearing more outfits with a dress/tunic and leggings? That needs to happen!

  • sylvia

    for future reference, how is it that your post office box is in san anselmo if you live in mill valley?
