news to make you smile

be cool. be good. be you.

Author: Patty Dixon

I think being kind is the greatest strength. Laugh, laugh a lot, laugh most of all at yourself. You aren't going to make it through without humor. Above all, I admire those who, somehow, manage to make the world a little nicer place. Cheers to you.

Blink. Blink. Blink. Click. Click. Click.


All I need is that dreadful Sarah Mclaughlin song….

Who I am

I love writing, I love reading. A daughter of a librarian, the love of words was instilled in me in the womb. I am a lifetime news junkie. I like good humans. I can bang out a few painfully simple tunes on a piano.

I nurse both a daily latte and chocolate habit.

My friends are the good kind of people that I’m blessed to have in my life.

Above all, I believe being kind is the greatest strength. I admire those who, somehow, manage to make the world a little nicer of a place. Huge thanks for stopping by!
